THE DEAD MONARCH
Events In the Life of King George,
Victim of Assassins.


Victim of Assassins.
London, March 19.-Born in Copen.
hagen on Dec. "a, 1S45, George l, the
| dead king, was the second son of
King Christian TX of Denmark,
His grandfather was direct
descendant of the Danish king Chris
tian III and his grandmother was
Louise, daughter of prince of Hesse-
Cassel. King Georges father married
Louise, daughter of Prince William of
Hesse-Cassel, in 1912. The reigning
king was childless and the represen-
tatives of the powers settled the
crown on Christian and his wife.
King Georges father was called the
protocol king"
George was educated with all the
strictness and simplicity that prevails
in Denmark palace. He was put in
the navy, and it was here, young
midshipman IS years old, in disgrace
for refusing to obey orders, by the
way, that he was sought out by the
cnancellorS of Europe and offered a
throne in a country about which he
knew practically nothing and which
1t is doubtful if he had ever seen.
1t was a time of grave events in
Greece The midshipman was being
called to a nation which had just de-
posed king chosen for Greece by
the powers in much the same way
that George was being chosen. Otto
of Bavaria, in his attempt to override
the constitution, had aroused the en-
nifty of the people. His position had
become untenable.
Immediately it became plain to Eu-
rope that the provisional government
of the little country had not the
strength to prevent harassing polit-
ical complications that would keep
all the near east in constant trouble.
1t was necessary to provide from the
outside some ruler of the Hellenes.
There were hurried conferences and
first England, as the special guardian
and friend of Greece, was sought out.
The throne was offered to the Duke
of Edinburgh. He declined. The Duke
Of Saxe-C -Ccburg- likewise show
ed no desire for the purple. Then M.
De Chauderdy, a French diplomat,
came forward with the suggestion
that the throne be offered to Prince
William George, the Danisho midship-
man.
On Oct 20, 1863, the prince came
to Athens, and promptly upon his ac-
cession signed an act resigning his
right OF succession to the Danish
throne in favor of Prince Waldemar.
The Greeks, wearied of internal trou-
bles, received him with open arms.
He TOOK as bis motto: my strength
Is the love of my people"
1t seemed as though Greece was
about 10 enter into period Of peace
and prosperity under a popular mon
arch. The sister Of the new monarch,
Princess Alexandra, had been married

Graveyard Of Twentieth Legion
Exhumed at Chester, Eng.
Bronze Coins Of the Emperors An
tonius, PIur and commodus
Are Found With tho
Remains.

London.-The extension OF the In
frmary at Chester has led to the dis
covery of the graveyard used by the
twentieth legion OF the Romans during
their occupation of that city.
The Chester inhrmary occupies
site which is locally referred to as
the plague field" The site seems to
have acquired its unsavory name from
the fact that casual discoveries of hu-
man remains had led to the supposi-
tion that they were the victims Of
the great plague.
The recent unearthing of remains In
larger numbers on the site Of the ex-
tension Of the infirmary led to an In
vestigation by Prof Robert Newstead.
who now reports that the evidence
proves conclusively that the infirmafy
field was not used as burying ground
during the outbreak OF the plague. and
that all the burials which have been
SO far unearthed belong to the Ro-
man period.
Four distinct types Of graves have
been uncovered. One Is tomb formed
of local sandstone, evidently repre-
senting burial of some Importance.
as the walls of the tomb are covered
in plaster, and tho dome Of the struc-
ture originally stood out In marked
contrast to the surrounding surface OF
the land. forming a distinct tumulus.
Some OF the graves were formed by
placing Roman roofing tiles bearing
the stamp of the twentieth legion upon
the floor and also at the sides. the
legionary stamps always facing In
ward.
Another type of burial was formed
by placing rough hewn sandstone so
that v-shaped trough was formed
for the reception of the body. A
fourth type of grave consists of sim
pie trench. dug in the solid clay at
depth OF not more than two feet from
the original land surface.
The Roman origin OF the graves is
borne out by the fact that bronze
coins of the Emperors Antonius. Plus
and Commodus have been found In
tkem. Such coins were placed usual
ly in the mouth of the deceased. and
are generally referred to as "Charon'n

Educators all over the country are
interested in the arrival in this coun-
try of DR.. Montessori who has come
over to explain her wonderful method
of teaching little children.
This Italian woman's remarkable
success began some years ago in Rome.
where she instructed defective chill
dren In one Of the great Italian insti
tutions. Her success with the little
feeble minded inmates was so great
and her discoveries Of so vast an i'm
portance to the whole conduct of edu-
cation that she was offered an oppOr-
tunity to put her theories into practice
in a school for the children Of the
tenements Of Rome Thus the Casa
del Bambini' came into existence-the
"house Of the children" which might
with equal propriety be called the
"house Of happiness" Here are no
tired and peevish teachers to quench
childish joys with constant mo. no.
"Stop that, Tommy" and do this.
Mary"
The children are allowed to play
with whatever objects interest them.
whether they be blocks or squares Of
bright colored cardboard or pieces Of
canvas to be laced together. all these
things teaching the child muscular
control and making him efficient at
the same time in matters Of daily life.
1t is not long after child has learn
ed to lace pieces of cloth together that
he discovers his shoes. Every one
knows how proud the child is when he
begins to dress himself. DR.. Monies
sori helps him to learn these things in
stead of stumbling upon them.
The result Is that In the Casa del
Bambini the little tots Of two and
three wash themselves. serve the
luncheons to the school and put the
room in order after the lessons are
over.
The natural activity Of the child Is
permitted full play. Instead Of sitting
YEARLY at immovable desks the chill
dren move freely about. dragging their
little chairs and tables wherever they
wish.
The schoolroom opens upon beau
tiful italian garden. and the children
spend most Of their time studying in
the open air.
Dr. Montessori fiercely denounces
the system which compels little chill
dren to sit at desks until their spines
are bent. She advocates freedom in
study and play. Her methods are be-
ing watched with great interest espe-
cially by kindergartners who have been
brought up on the Froebel teachings.
