IRIS HISTORY REPEATING
ITSELF IN WAR STORY
Belgium and Belgrade Have
Figured In All the Eu.
ropean Strife.

History has partly repeated itself
in old fashion during the last few
DAYS as regards both Belgium and
Belgrade.
when France and Germany went
TO war in 1870 Belgium was then, as
later. neutral" More than thirty
wears earlier all the Powers had SOL
EMMY pledged themselves to rec
osnize the independence of Belgium
as a neutral State" And when Hol-
land (from which Belgium had re-
Gently been detached) refused to
sign this treaty combined French
and English feet and French army
were rushed to the Netherlands to
make the Dutch see reason. The
Dutch saw it and signed.
At the outbreak of the Franco
Prussian war Belgium realized in
what ticklish position she stood;
as a buffer country in the path of
both hostile forces. So she promptly
nut her little army on war foot
ing and rush it to the frontier; and
adopted every other possible meas
ure for defense Just as she has
now done.
The tiny neutral States danger at
this crisis aroused tremendous ex-
element in England. The British
Government formally declared its
intention to maintain the integrity
of Belgium The British Govern
ment also warned both France and
Germany to keep their hands off and
mot to violate the neutrality of Bel
GUM"
France and Germany willingly
agreed. And the agreement was
kept. True, throng of French SOL
diers, fleeing from Sedan, early in
September, 1870, poured over the
Belgian border But they came
thither through necessity and not
through choice; because it was the
nearest haven of refuge. And on
their arrival they laid down their
arms and were duly "interned.'
Austria's recent attack in Bel
grade is not novel experience for
either the attacker or the attacked.
In fact, IAN Austrian army awfully
arrayed," has boldly by battery be-
sieged Belgrade" so often that it
has got to be almost habit. Here
is the list:
First, in 1858, when Belgrade was
a Turkish possession, Austria cap
tured and held the city; only to lose
it again in 1890. Second, in 1717.
Prince Eugene's Austrian army
wrested Belgrade from the Turks af-
ter a fierce struggle, and for twenty
two years Austria remained ruler of
the oft-captured city.
Then came another half century
of Turkish rule, after which the
Austrians again stormed and seized
Belgrade, holding it three years this
time. then losing 1t again to the Ser
vians--temporarily at least-in
