because he loved her and in taking her
compassion for tenderness. But he re

own disappointment.

~HE idealistic tenor of President
\ Wilson's reply to Pope Bene-
IA diets peace note suggests the
part which the United States is to
play in the reconstruction of Europe
after the redemption and the peace.
That Amberica will fill the role of dis
interested though belligerent mediator
played by England in the Napoleonic
war may readily be anticipated, but
who will be the Talleyrand and who the
Castlereagh at the Congress of The
Hague?
From the history of the Napoleonic
debacle at Waterloo and the congress
of Vienna in 1915 may be drawn a most
striking parallel. With change Of
dates and names and war formulas, Al
lison's and Druruy's, or any familiar
history Of that crisis, can be made to do
service as the warm and pulsating rec
ords of this very hour.
Before quoting from Allison's His
tory of Europe" its almost uncanny
analogies and : rallels with the World
War and its projection of developments
perhaps yet to come, it should be noted
that analogies are dangerous aids in
prophecy, for while there is so much
that is similar there is also so much

She Was Seated
On the Same Bench

Pierre stopped suddenly. lie saw
short way off the very person whom
he was seeking. He stood motionless'
She was in the same spot to which
thew used 10 come the autumn be-
fore. She was seated on the bench
on which they had sat so many times,
side by side. But she was not alone.
A wounded man was beside her, just
as he himself used 10 be beside her.
Cautiously, on tiptoes, gliding be-
hind the bushes, he drew near and,
concealed behind q clump Of trees in
the rear Of the bench, he watched
and listened. And he was so upset
that nc feared the beating Of his
heart would disclose his presence.
Presently the young woman got up
and led the wounded man back to the
house, where she turned him over to
a nurse. Pierre, taking another path,
followed her, and when he saw her
alone he approached and greeted her.
"Madame," he began, in voice al
mos. chokcd with emotion.
She turned her head toward him.
He thought that she was prettier than
ever. but in the tender and serious
ewes which were bent upon him he saw
only an expression Of indifference.
"Monsieur?' she said, in question
ing tone.
Turning pale, he cried out, brokenly:
Don't you recognize me-"
She was evidently surprised, and hes
ita:ed Cor few seconds. Then her
countenance cleared.
"Ah, yes. yes. Pierre Marsier. Now
! remember you very well. You were
under treatment here six months ago.
And your arms it better? You were
seriously wounded in the arm and
breast, weren't you"
ayes. My arm is better. II is still
weak and its strength will never come
back completely. But it gives me no
trouble"

England Won
Diplomatic Victory

OF this treaty and Of the numerous
subsidiary treaties signed in the Grea
Treaty year in Europe, 1915, Allison
says:
"Such were the treaties of 1915,
forever memorable as terminating.
for time at least, the revolutionary
governments OF the civilized world
and closing in a durable manner the
ascendancy Of imperial France IN
europe.
ut is hard to say whether the mag
nitude of the triumphs which had
preceded it or the moderation dis
played by the victors in the moment
Of conquest was the most admirable
And England, in an espe-
cial manner, displayed the magma
nimity in prosperity which is the
true test of greatness of soul. When
Der rival was PROSTATE at her feet
she threw the whole Of her weight
in diplomacy TO moderate the de-
mands of the victors.
"And when the treaty was con-
cluded she took neither ship nor one
village TO herself, and bestowed the
whole of the war indemnity which
fell TO her share upon the kingdom
of the Netherlands to reconstruct the
barrier which had been cast down."

PETROGRAD, Dec. 29.-The advance
guard of the German peace delegation
arrived in Petrograd Thursday evening.

ant Vierle, also naval officers.
They wore civilian clothes and were
received By representatives Of the Rus

admiralty barracks. Thirty additional
representatives of the Central Powers
are coming TO Petrograd shortly from
Brest-Litoysk, among them County
Nirbach, former counsellor Of the Ger
man Embassy in Petrograd.
Admiral Kaiserling said the naval
delegation had come to Petrograd par
ticularly 10 discuss the cessation Of
naval warfare. lie said that prices
were higher in Petrogard than in Ber-
lin and that the food situation in Ger
many was quite good
There is certain tiredness with

HITTING the little suburban

" along the main road at rapid
pace. He was very excited ead
very happy. lie was going TO see her
again. He pictured in advance the sur

now he no longer had the doubts which,
after his separation from her, had at
first tormented him. By dint Of recall

more and more persuaded that ne did

enced a thrill Of the profoundest de-

Triumphant Kings
Restrained by France

Europe was arrayed against France
because France had burst forth, not as
the champion Of Hohenzollern or
Bourbon autocracy, but as the propa-
gandist Of dangerous revolutionary So

tyrant. was crushed at Waterloo and
France was overrun the reaction in
France was away from the democracy
that had earned such bloodshed and

Reaction was enthroned in Europe
because democracy had been defeated.

Will u. S. Play Healing
Part in Peace Congress ?
Events Drawing Toward Parallel With
Time of Napoleon's Fall, When Great
Britain Saved France From Dismember
ment at the Hands of Revengeful Europe

France. II is therefore rather a re-
verse parallel as between autocracy and
democracy which Allison's forgotten
pages reveal. He says:
Vol. I, Chapter III, Page 81:
pride is the last weakness which
can be conquered in the human heart.
When nations have undergone a great
calamity the first thing they think
of is some individual or party upon
whom it can be laid.
This scapegoat was found by the
French at this disastrous epoch in
Napoleon and his party. Great as had
been the enthusiasm in 1889, I'M
bounded the exultation in 1900 at the
glories Of the empire they were
equalled now by the unanimous burst
of indignation at the same conqueror
and his followers"
One wonders if the Kaiser has read
history. One wonders, too, If what hap
pened in France in 1915 will happen in
Germany, with this difference, that in
1915 autocracy and monarchy were
triumphant and democratic dictators
and propagands;s in defeat. Allison
proceeds:
at is impossible 20 imagine the
violence of the victorious French
royalists, or the urgency with which
they besieged the sovereign for ven
geance, speedy. general and unrelent-
ing, against the authors of all their
calamities.
1.-THE retreat was the signal for
the commencement of the massacre
at Marseillc-, and never did the vio-
lent passions and savage dispositions
of the inhabitants Of Southern France
appear in more frightful colors. Hav-
ing once tasted blood, the multitude
was as fierce as maddened wolves
in pursuit of their prey

Austria Demanded
Alsace and Lorraine

Austria was the great power with
which there was most difficulty in
coming to an accommodation she
openly demanded the cession OF
Alsace and Lorraine from France.
AT length, by the united efforts OF
Emperor Alexander of Russia, Lord
Castlereagh and the Duke of Well
ington the demands Of Austria and
the lesser German powers were
abated and 2 treaty concluded, which,
although much less disastrous than
might in the circumstances have
been expected, was the most humili-
ating that had been imposed upon
France in centuries.
"When the project for stripping
France of Strasbourg was submitted
TO the Russian Emperor he eN-
claimed: They are determined on
another war Of twenty-five years
duration
Allison shows that while there was
little annexation, there was much in
demnity, as follows:
"Such, however, was the modera-
ton of the Allies that after so en-

But the payments in money exacted
from her were enormous, and felt all
the more enormous because they
were the badge of conquest. In all,
61.000,000 pounds sterling were eX-
acted, in proportions TO be distrib-
ted among the Allies"
Will the German forts be garri'
soned by Allied troops, and who viii
be the Wellington of the army of oc
cupation? We quote further:
an addition to this, it was stipu-
lated, as a measure alike of security
to Europe and protection to the new
ly established dynasty in France,
that an army Of 10000 men, belong
ing to the Allies, was to be put in
possession of the principal fortresses
of France, for not less than three
and not more than five years.
This army was TO be entirely
maintained, paid and clothed at the
expense of the French nation. The
allied sovereigns unanimously con-
ferred the command of the whole
upon the Duke of Wellington"

continues:
