Julius Caesar,
By GEORGE FITCH,
Author of cat Good Old siwash."

This is the birthday of Julius Caesar.
Roman politician, who iourished in
the last expiring gasps Of the B. C.'s
and started a bunch of history which
wasn't finished for a thousand years.
Caesar was born in lO2 b. C. and
came from a noted standpat family. But
Caesar himself was an insurgent. He
belonged to the great populist party,
and shouted for reform. This SO irri-
tated old Sulla, who was running the
government Just then, that he fired
Caesar out Of his public Job and tossed
W to decide whether 10 hang him or
make him the Roman equivalent OF Vice
President In order TO escape both fates.
Caesar went to war. He was very sue
cessfuI and when he came back was
elected Pontifex. Quaestor. aedile and
consul in rapid succession. defeating his
opponents both IN the primaries and at
the elections with great ease.
In 80 b. c. Caesar opened co-partner-
ship with Pompey and Croessus. the ].
=. Morgan of that time. and conducted
Rome as a limited monopoly with great
firmness for several years He after
ward went north with an army 10 intro
duce the celebrated Roman legion into
Gaul. Gaul was composed OF three parts
when he arrived. but no one was able
to enumerate its pieces after he had
left
In the meanwhile, Pompey being in
control at Rome. fired Caesars friends
out of the Cabinet, and packed all the
caucuses with office-hoIders. He then
invited Caesar to come home and be
killed. Caesar came, nut carelessly
brought his army with him and Pom
pey beat him out of town by one car.
IL was before starting for Rome that
Caesar performed his famous feat of
hesitating on the banks of the Rubi-
con. a little stream which has never
done anything since.
Caesar was now master of Rome and
was made Dictator and PraefectUs Mo-
rum, which is Roman for The Whole
Works" For several years he rOamed
through Africa and Asia, swatting all
enemies with skill and tnoroughness. In
Egypt he moved in the oest Of society
and Mrs. Ptolmey, better known as Cleo
patra, worked him for the throne Of
