Today We Celebrate
Anniversary Of Napoleon's Gre
Greeting I'm England.

Anniversary of Napoleon'se Great
Greeting in England.
If Emperor Wililam should be
| taken prisoner to England, it Is safe to
say he will be greeted with curses,
boots and maledictions, and that he
will need a large bodyguard to protect
him from the wrath of the people.
When the vanquished Napoleon reach
ed England, however, the imperial
| captive had no reason to fear the ven-
geance OF the mob. Instead he was
| greeted more as q friend and a con-
Quering hero than as an enemy ana
defeated general.
It was just 103 years ago today,
| July "a, 1915, that the English man.
of-war Bellerophon arrived at Tor
quay. When the deposed monarch
appeared on deck the officers and sea-
men, without orders and moved by a
common impulse, uncovered their
heads. When Napoleon advanced to
the starboard gangway to view the
thousands of people who had gathered
to see him, q great cheer went up, and
in the thunderous reclamation there
was not a single note of hatred.
Napoleon was very cheerful In
those days, for he believed the pop
ular applause was a good omen for the
future and he yielded to the iHussory
hope hat the British government
would permit him to remain In Eng
land, under some strict, but not OPP
presslve surveillance The demon
strations had just the opposite effect,
however, for they proved that Napo-
Icons power owe the imaginations of
men had as strong an appeal as ever.
Official England was alarmed by these
manifestations of good will toward the
man who had SO recently fought Eng
lishmen al Waterloo and Napoleon's
fate, therefore uncertain, was sealed.
On the last day Of July Sir Henry
Bunbury, an Under-Secretary OF
State, went on board the Bellerophon
to communicate to Napoleon the ON
cial sentence of his banishment to st.
Helena. The ex-Emperor received
the news calmly and with dignity, but
with solemn energy he protested
against the right Of the British gov
| eminent so t o dispose of him. He
pointed out that he had come volun-
tarily ito throw himself upon the o
pitality' OF the British nation. He
declared that he was not a prisoner OF
war and that IL he WERE, he should
be treated according to the laws OF
ITO take me to the Island of st. He
