MPEROR WILLIAM when he
gives his confidence and init
mate f:iendahip TO any one,
writes very freely 10 him. Until lie
was first made aware by his son, the
crown prince, of the stories current
affecting the morality OF Prince Philip
Eulenburg. he was wont TO write most
unreservedly to him. in a confidential
way. about Ill sorts Of matters re
lating to the court OF Vienna to which
Eulenburg was accredited as ambassa-
DOR and about policies and statesmen
in Germany Philip Eulenburg was a
very brilliant and gifted man, and also
IN many respects a sagacious political
adviser. For he was particularly Wig
orous In urging the Emperor to avoid
any interference in the Morocco inn
broslu, which brought Germany no
advantage Of any kind but impaired
her relations with both France and
England, ana gravcly disturbed econo-
mic conditions for time in the Ger.
man empire.
AS soon as ever the Emperor was
made aware OF the vices of Eulen-
burg. of which he had been kept in
careful ignorance. he at once broke
of the friendship. and on becoming
convinced Of his guilt. deprived him
of his order of the Black Eagle: the
OF that order of a knight thereof be-
ing expelled from its ranks. He also
caused the police to search and seize
all the princes papers, at his chateau
Of Liebenberg. But the very moment
that the prince realized that the Kali
ser had learned of his guilt. he dis
patched the whole of his corrcspon-
dence with the Emperor. which he had
carefully preserved. to France for safe
keeping. There ii has since remained,
and endcavors are now being made
quietly in behalf OF the imperial gov
danger which exists of its being given
land. on Eulenburc's death. Such pub
ing character. in connection with the
courts and governments.
There is no danger of these papers
being published as long as the prince
lives For he must realize that any
thing OF the kind would result in his
immediate consignment to the peni-
tentiary. charges OF high treason
Moreover. his indictments for perjury
and for immortality are still standing
against him. his trial on these two
counts having had to be interrupted
on account OF the condition OF his
health. Ever since, that is TO say for
the last three years or more he has
been living under police surveillance
in state of complete ostracism. at
his chateau OF Liebenberg, and thus
far no attempt has been made to re-
sumo the proceedings against him.

Lord I4ovat has just been made the
recipient OF wholly unique testi-
monial Of regard on the part OF the
men who served under him during the
Boer War. in the corps which he raised
armed and equipped for that conflict
under the name of the Lovat Scouts
The gift. to which a number OF Lovat
Scouts now resident in this country
subscribed, was intended as a wedding
present, but comes somewhat late in
the day; for since the marriage, three
years ago. Lady Lovat has had time
10 present her husband with both a
son and a daughter. The gift has
taken the form of superb decora-
tive door and doorway. forming an
entrance to the ballroom nj Beaufort
Castle. in keeping with the majestic
dimensions of that stately apartment.
II is of beautifully carved oak, and
bears references 10 the battles and
minor engagements In which the
Lovat Scouts won distinction under
their gallant commander during the
war In South Africa. Beaufort Castle
is very stately pile, with q long, dark
red facade, gray roofs. and many tur-
rets and gables. n relatively modern
edifice. having been erected by the
late Lord I.ovat some forty or fifty
years ago, 10 replace the unpretcntious
little house which had been the resi-
dence OF the family since the burning
OF the old castle in the stormy days
OF the 11io Jacobite rebellion. The
entrance is paneled with oak grown
on the estate, and on the walls hang n
collection of old weapons and arms.
most of then: OF historic and family
interest: as, for instance, the muskets
carried by the Fraser Highlanders
who fought iii Canada and Gstin-
guishcd themselves at the storming Of
Quebec.
Among the most interesting relics
at Beaufort Castle are the veil worn
by Mary Queen of Scots on the day
OF her execution, the favoritc chair on
which Simon Lord Lovat, surnan,ed
the traitor sat and dealt out Justice
as high sheriff OF Inverness shire, and
Hogarth's striking portrait of that
extraordinary peer who was so many
things to so many men. and who fin
ally. at the age OF eighty, rcpudiatcd
by all. met with an unmourned death
at the hands Of the eXecutioner on
Tower Hill. in London. One of the
features OF the castle is the beautiful
private chapel. with walls of the most
delicate-tintcd marble, altar and re-
redos ar alabaster, the stained glass
windows being thank Offering of
Lord Lovat's mother for the return
OF her three sons from tho Boer War.

from that Alexander Fraser who

Bruce OF Scotland, and one of whose
