GREAT TRIALS OF HISTORY
TRIAL OF QUEEN CAROLINE

mors assumed the character of definite
John Douglas, an officer of marines.
whose residence was near to that of the
princess at Blackheath. The Douglases
made lengthy statement to improper fa-
miliarities with Sir Sidney Smith, Captain
Manly, Lawrence, the artist and the
Hon. Mr.. Hood. and Lady Douglas de-
clared that the princess had confessed to
her that the adopted child was her own
son, and that he was born at Montague
house early in November 1905.
When this story was circulated an ef-
fort was started to arrive at the truth.
With this object, commission was is
sued to inquire into the truth. The in
quiry that ensued, protracted over i've
chths, was secret and entirely exparte.
Not cnly LGdy Douglas was examined,
but also the attendants and servants
upon the princess, and no one was al
lowed to be present at the trial on her
part though Sir Samuel Romily. as at
torney general, attended on behalf of the
| crown during a portion of the proceed
| ings.
! When at last the evidence was brought
to a close it was not until a month after
the report of the commissioners. entirely
acqutting her of the imputed maternity
of her protege had been forwarded to

ted to the princess herself, with the depo-
sitions of the witnesses.
| AT the trial all the statements made by
Lady Douglas were denied by the at

When the Douglas story was thoroughly
| disproved the charge of improper fa-
mliarity with Captain Manly was taken
up. This, too, was disproved, and on

that not only the main charges We're COM
pletely disproved, but that "all other par
] ticulars OF conduct brought in accusation
against her royal highness to which the
character of criminality could be ascribed
were satisfactorily contradicted, or rested
on evidence undeserving of credit
| But the estransement of the prince and
| princess was beyond repair, and she
went abroad to live. Finally the prince
became King George " and the princess
returned to be crowned with him. but this
was refused and bill was brought into
the House of Lords charging Caroline
with series of acts highly unbeceming
her majesty's rank and station while on
the continent" This trial was begun on
August II, 1920, and lasted for two months,

Another BugabOO Darkens Horizon

The gift of peering far into the
future has always been regarded as a
supernatural equipment and one that
is accorded to but few individuals.
Literature is full of predictions but
close consideration has demonstrated
that they are rarely realized, and
where sporadic instances are recog-
nized their bringing about has never
been the cause assigned by the self
accredited prophet.
The brilliant historian, Gulielmo
Ferrero, claims to have made a most
startling discovery and upon this reve-
lation he predicates developments for
the future which are interesting and
if true gravid with concern, if not
menace, to the United States.
The historian announces his belief
that the Japanese and the Indians of
Central and South America are kim
dred peoples, that eventually they will
contract political alliances and possi-
bly, effect amalgamation. He declares
his opinion that this relationship will
be used as vantage ground by the
Japanese and that they will "open to
their emigrants the ports of this i'm
mense and wealthy continent and es-
tablish the strongest ties Of close
friendship"
This might possibly some day con-

ice was thin and broke in l rescued

COULD NOT rEAzE. HIM.

Little Tommy was most resourceful
lad and seldom failed at an expediency.
One day he was to recite at school the
Juvenile poem:
There was a man in our town
And he was wondrous wise;
He jumped into bramble bush
And scratched out both his eyes"
Now Tommy got his endings wrong.
but, nothing daunted, he kept on, and
this is the way he finished:
There was a man in our town
And wondrpus wise was he;
He jumped into a bramble bush
And then he could not see"
The second verse ran:
And when he found his eyes were out,
With all his might and main
He jumped into another bush
And scratched them in again..
Tommy fell into the same error as be-
fore. but he pulled through after this
fashion,:
And when he found his eyes were out,
With all his main and might
He jumped into another bush
And then he had his sight"

The parcel post is being brought into
requisition for almost every conceivable
thing from a human incubator to a
hearse. When Frederick Heist of Nc
Keesport, Pa, died recently, his body
was cremated and his friends have sent
the ashes by parcel post to Reichesheim,
Germany, the home at one time of the
deceased. This is the first time that
the parcel post has been employed for
such a purpose, and it savors of con-
Verting the postman into a pallbearer.

Religious Features In Newspapcr.

The regular appearance of a prayer
and sermon on the editorial page of The
Age-Herald has occasioned considerable
comment of a favorable nature in this
city," said Birmingham man who has
travelled extensively.
Il believe the Birmingham publication
has the distinction of being almost the
only daily paper in this country that has
adopted the custom of printing religious
matter each day; and although / have
travelled through the different countries
of Europe, l do not remember of another
look upon this new departure as an
other precedent for American Journalism.
THE other morning as l glanced over
this prayer / was strongly reminded of
my travels through Switzerland and Ger

tries of the world In Switzerland al fire.
quent intervals along the highways and
especially over the bridges, public shrines
have been erected for the convenience
and guidance of the traveller; and in the
fields and vineyards OF Germany cruci-
fixes have been placed in conspicuous
places. l am sure that most everyone
will agree that the citizens of Birming-
ham could be a little more law abiding
without breaking any records in this re-
spect; and perhaps an early morning
glance at the short daily prayer might
be of some benefit"

AtIanta's Claims for Regional Bank

THE Atlanta Constitution in an able
editorial points to the fact that 81 per
cent of the banks of the country have
ndorsed the Gate City for regional
bank" said man intensely Interested
in getting a bank for Birmingham. 'It
says that it is an especially significant
fact that these banks are scattered
from Maine to California and that they
are practically unanimous in their in
dorsement of Atlanta. The Constitu-
ton also points out that most of the
south and all of Georgia have indorsed
Alabama for the bank.
"The Constitution doubtless intend
ed to be veracious but the best of us
sometimes make mistakes. Most of the
south has not indorsed Atlanta. 1t is
true that all of Georgia has indorsed
that city, but all of Georgia is not
enough territory to warrant the asser-
| tion that all of the south has indorsed
Atlanta
Richmond has not indorsed Atlanta.
The Carolinas have not indorsed At
lanta. Birmingham has not indorsed
Atlanta for second place, of course)
and Houston has been strangely silent
as to the Endorsement of Atlanta. Mont
gomery, in a moment of alteration, in
dorsed Atlanta, but there can hard

| City will repudiate its Endorsement OF
Atlanta and turn it's influence to Bir-
mingham before the federal reserve
board reaches Alabama.
| The fact that 81 per cent of the
banks from Maine to California have
indorsed Atlanta is not significant. II
a delegation from 'Squedunk, Fla, hat
called on bankers in Maine and asked
| for their Endorsement these bankers
would doubtless have given it. They
are not affected and, therefore, it i.
a matter of indifference whom they
indorse. The territory mainly affected
has not practically indorsed Atlanta
