Guiding a garrison of fifteen thousand
men. about one hundred and seventy
eight thousand inhabitants. The city
proper is about two miles from the
Rhine being connected with the river
by canal. 1t has some remarkable
architecture dating back to the thir-
teenth century. Although the city
was burned during the Franco Prus-
sian War In 1870, many of these old
buildings were saved and are a never
ending delight to the restless Ameri-
can tourist who is ever on the alert
for something uncommon.
The chief object of interest Is the
Cathedral with its wonderful astron-
omical clock known throughout the
world as the most marvellous time
piece ever constructed. During the
siege of the city the French set up OBJ
servation towers on the roof Of the
cathedral. which was badly damaged.
However. the old church has been
completely restored and Is visited by
thousands Of persons each year.
One OF the distinguishing features
of the city are the storks which fly
about the roofs, building their nests
on the quaint old chimneys. Hero
they raise their young undisturbed.
In the newer part of the city is the
Kaisers palace-a beautiful building
rarely used, for II Is seldom that any
of the royal family of Germany visit

their welcome Is uncertain. The in

little country.
In 1904 Servia revolted against the
Turks and this revolution lasted until
the Autumn of 1913. The Servians
OF the present kingdom became au-
tonomous in 1890, but revolted In
1s7678 and gained complete freedom.
In this they were Joined by Bosnia and
Herzegovinia. Then came the Russo
Turkish War which changed the face
Of the Balkans again. Servia was now
absolutely free, but the other two lit
tie countries were nominally Turkish
territory. They were, however, oc-
cupied by Austrian troops. This was
another step toward the Austrian plan,
as the latter spent considerable money
on the little States but did not grant
them autonomy.
The Servians who lived there re-
belled at this and there was a four
years instruction against Austria,
which fostered the intense hatred of
the races which has gradually grown
stronger.
Finally, in 190s-9 when the Con-
stitutional revolution came on In
Turkey, Austria annexed the two lit
tie States declaring that they were
Austrian anyhow and that the out
and out annexation would prevent
them from being compelled to send
delegates to the Turkish Parliament.
Dalmatia and Herzegovina were
promised self government. but as yet
none has been established, nor ia It

habitants for the most part cling to
the national costume, and the girls
with wide black bows on their hair
make a pretty picture especially on
market days when hundreds of
peasants bring their produce to the
city. Even here the sentiment and
sympathy is French and there Is a
general dislike for the German garri-
son Of the town.
But to return to the history of the
provinces. In 1870 Alsace-Lorraine
was in the height of its prosperity.
The crops were excellent, the factories
were working and money was plenti-
full. Peace and happiness reigned
supreme.
War Of 1870.
But this did not continue, for
France and Prussia were at war In
July of that year, and Germany de-
manded these two provinces as part
of her spoils. During the short space
of four months devastation had spread
over the land of plenty. Strassburg,
the pride of the province, had been
bombarded and burned, many of the
men had gone to their deaths on the
battlefield, widows and orphans were
destitute, and this land OF Joy and
peace suddenly became one of desola =
ton and grief. The rights Of con-
quest had been exercised by Germany,
and the treaty of Frankfort was
signed and Germany began her iron
rule in the conquered provinces, which

smiled. Then they promised certain
concessions to Bosnia, such as grant
ing them the use of the Servian Ian
guage and Of holding a parliament,
but there was a string to the parlia-
ment and every act passed which Aus
tria disliked was annulled at once.
why, we even allowed them to have
signs printed in Servian," said a
prominent Austrian with an injured
air.
This was almost humorous when 1t
is known that Austria has no national
tongue-at least a dozen different
languages being used throughout the
Empire. Bosnia soon discovered that
freedom OF speech. the use OF their
native language and self government
was only a sham, and quiet bitter
ness prevailed.
Emperor Franz Joseph Not Welcome.
The Emperor Franz Joseph at once
decided to visit his newly acquired
lands, but his reception was anything
but cordial and the officials were de-
lighted when they finally got him
back to Vienna without. at least, a

about twenty thousand Inhabitants.

far the most interesting people in
southeastern Europe. Even the I'M

outwardly subdue them and rob them
of their land and secure the seacoast

exist and the down-trodden little ma

OF Austria's greed.

sends out such manifesto.
1t is claimed by many Austrians
that their country does not covet Ser
Was lands. but merely wishes to
avenge the murder of Franz Ferdi-
nand. Surely Austria can hardly hold
the entire nation responsible for the
act of q fanatical boy, who was crazed
by the wrongs practiced upon his peo-
pie by the Austrians. This war for
revenge idea is all the more ridiculous
from the fact that the Archduke
Ferdinand was most unpopular and II
the people had been given a choice
Charles Francis would have been made
heir to the throne. Already the soil
has been drenched with the blood OF
these two nations, and Servia for a
third time in three consecutive years
has been forced into a state Of war.
Servia's Victories.
Servia's Victories in 1912 bothered
Austria for they came as surprise
not only to that country but to the
entire world. In the fall of that year
that little country put two hundred
and sixty thousand men in the held
during three weeks and later added
one hundred and forty-five thousand
more. At least thirty thousand or
these were killed and wounded. But
in 1918 when the trouble with Bul-
garia came on the Servians again put
a large army In the fold and proved
their efficiency In warfare.
But once more Austria interferred
and robbed them OF a part of their
victory. for by delicate diplomatic
tactics she induced the powers to com
pei the Servians TO give up part of
their conquest where Albania was con-
cerned and Servia lost what she so
much desired--a seaport The cap
ture of Salonika by the Greeks and
the victories of the Servians in Mace
donia blocked Austria's march to the
south once more. Then, too, Russia
was becoming entirely too friendly to-
ward its Slav klnsmen in the Balkans
and this caused the Austrians no lit
tie worry

raine came under French rule by a
treaty with King Henry II. Of France,
on October 8. 1851 but 1t was not un-
til 1856 that the province was de-
nnitely incorporated with France, and
from that time until 1870 the little
province was governed by the French.
AS to Alsace It formed q part Of
Gaul until the fall Of the Roman En-
pire. The Rhine was one of the most
important boundaries of the Roman
province of Gaul, and over this the
Germans were continually making
ravages upon their more civilized and
prosperous neighbors, and to some of
these warlike bands (the Franks) is
due the French monarchy which be-
gan with Chloris in the fifth century
Alsace remained under the Merovin-
gian and Carlovingian kings. and the
Germans were allowed to establish
themselves (by the Treaty OF Verdum
in S43) on the left bank of the Rhine

annex!ng Alsace to the German En-
pire. IT was ruled by them until
1913, and at the termination Of the
thirty years war 1t was restored to

A short time after this the Servians
discovered that 1t was difficult for
their race to thrive In Bosnia. II a
man spoke servian or stuck up for
his race he failed in business. There
was absolutely nothing for him in
public life no matter how well quail
fed he might be. The Servian youth
living in Bosnia found that he had
absolutely no chance unless he bowed
to the Austrian Government and
worked to the detriment of his own
race. Now. the Servians are intense
ly patriotic and they refused to be-
come traitors. In vain they tried to
show Austria that they were worthy
Of better treatment and when that gov
eminent refused to recognize the
rights of the Serb he became bolster
Gus and demonstrative and one poor,
fanatical creature thought that he
was aiding his country in killing the
heir to Austria's throne. But his act
w9s used as flimsy pretext for war
against his country and his crime was
followed by Emperor Franz Joesph's
extraordinary manifesto:
Manifesto.
'In this solemn hour l am fully
conscious of the whole significance of
my resolve and my responsibility be-
fore the Almighty. l have examined
and weighed everything. and with u
serene conscience l set out on the path
that duty points.
IT trust in Austria Hungarys brave
and devoted forces and In the AL
mighty to give victory to my arms"
If the reader will turn from this to
the report of the International Com
mission OF the Carnegie Endowment
Fund he will be able to understand
fully the blasphemy of the manifesto.
The report finds that war in that part
Of the world means mutilation OF
prisoners, murder, looting. assassina-
ton, executions drownings, massacres
of innocent persons and the outrag-
ing of helpless women. 1t means de-
struction of property, ruin and suffer-
ing, and after victory poverty and
degradation of the worst kind. 1t
makes one wonder what manner of
man the Emperor Franz Joseph can
be when at the age of eighty-four
years and Just after the receipt of a
note from the Pope begging him not
TO stain his old age with blood. he
