MEANING OF JAcOBITE TOAST
Glasses Raised to "the Little Gentle
man In Velvet" Had a Peculiar
Significance Centuries Ago.

ITO the little gentleman in velvet"
was favorite Jacobite toast in the
reign Of Queen Anne. BY "the little
gentleman in velvet" the Jacobites
meant the mole that raised the hum
mock against which the horse Of King
William III civilian Of Orange)
stumbled while riding In Hampton
court. The king was thrown heavily
to the ground, breaking his collar bone.
A severe illness ensued under which
the kings feeble constitution gave
way, and he died early In the year
1902. He left no children and the
crown passed to Anne. sister of Will
liam's deceased wife, Queen Mary, and
a daughter of the deposed king, James
ii. 1t was the plan of the Jacobltes
to bring back TO the throne James the
Pretender, a son. II was claimed. of
James III by his second wife, Mary of
Modena. The execution Of their plans
was not attempted until the house of
Hanover came to the throne. The at
tempt of the Pretender James In 1715
was a miserable failure, but the at
tempt of his son, Prince Charlie, In
1745, was more formidable affair. He
collected considerable force In Scot
land. invaded England and reached
Derby before compelled to retreat. He
was finally defeated at Culloden.
