The second coalition consisting or
Russia, Austria, England Portugal
Naples and Turkey began war with
France in 1899. Napoleon was in
Egypt and the directory saw it's ar
mics defeated in Italy and on the
Rhine. fastening back to France
Bonaparte overthrow the directory
and made himself first consul IN No
vember of that year. Crossing the
Alps the next May he won the bat
tvs of Marengo and Monticello and
restored the French power in Italy.
Meantime Moreau had penetrated into
the heart Of Austria. On June - he
won the battle of Hochstadt and on
December 8 administered final and
crushing defeat to the Austrians az
Hohenlinden. Russia had entered
into amicable relations with France.
Prussia had remained neutral; only
a few of the smaller German states
followed the German emperor, Fran
els Of Austria. Moreau was within
five days march of Vienna, master OF
an immense stretch of territory and
of all the enemy'ss magazines. The
emperor had asked for an armistice
and Joseph Bonaparte had met the
Austrian envoy, Cobentzel, at Lune-
VILE in Lorraine to negotiate for a
peace.
HostiIities Resumed.
Tho armistice was prolonged but,
Austria refusing to negotiate without
England, hostilities were resumed.
Napoleon gave orders for vigorous
prosecution of the war, both In Italy
and Germany. Joseph Bonaparte and
Cobentzel remained at Luneville maxi
ing negotiations which were changed
every day by the progress Of the war.
At last, abandoned by the neutral
powers, isolated in Germany and sep
arated from England, which alone re-
NAMED hostile to France, the emperor
yielded, and ON February 8, 1901, CO.
bentzel signed on behalf of Austria
the peace Of Luneville. For the last
time an emperor Of the Holy Roman
Empire assembled the imperial diet
and as the heir Of the Caesars laid

over half Of his subjects in European
Turkey. Turkey declared war on Oc-
to5er 5, 1858. The Russian army was
already on the Danube and fighting
began. France and England formed
an alliance with Turkey; Austria as
sumed position of watchful waiting.
The allied fleets entered the Black
sea while the Turks drove back the
Russians until they had them north
of the Pruth, and Austria, under an
arrangement with Turkey, temporar-
lily occupied the municipalities.
The western nations now formulat-
ed their -four points; as much dis
cussed then as the fourteen points"
more recently. They We're: The
ears protectorate over Serbia and
the municipalities to be abolished; the
navigation of the Danube to be free;
the treaties regarding the Black sea
|andi the Dardanelles to be revised I'm
the Interests of the balance of pow
err; the car to withdraw his pre-
tensions to q protectorate over the
Turkish subjects of the Greek faith.
The custody of the holy places hal
already been settled.
Cars Acceptance Too Late.
The czar informed Austria late in
1854 that he accepted the flour
points" But it was too late. France
and England determined that the war
should go on until Russia was so
crushed as to be no longer menace
/ in the East. An army of French and
English had landed in the Crimea IN
| September. The Russians were de-
; feated at the battles of Alma, Sep
| TENDER 20; Balaclava, October 70, and
Inkerman, November 5. The siege OF
Sebastopol began in October and last
ed nearly year. The allied troops
suffered horribly in the trenches and
the czar boosted that his two best
generals, General January and Gen
eral February" would retrieve for him
the fortunes of the war. While things
were at their worst for the allies the
| fresh troops of the Sandman army
arrived On the 9Th of the next Sep
telnber the Malakoff was taken by
storm and Sebastopol surrendered
three days later. Car Nicholas died
of a broken heart and his successor
accented an invitation to treat for
peace Delegates met at Paris on
I February %, 1856, the -four points"
were made the basis for negotiations
and q treaty was signed on March 80.
RUSSIA gave up her claims to pro
| fectorate over the municipalities and
over the Christians of Greek faith in
Turkey: coded the mouths OF the
Danube and declared that river free
to navigation under an European COM
mission. Merchant ships were grant,
ed free entrance into the Black sea
Int men-of-war were barred. Russia
was prohibited from maintaining o
war fleet on that sea and agreed to
dislnantle her naval stations on its
| shores. Russia waited favorable
onportunity and when the Franco
| pr,lssian war broke out informed the
mowers that she abrogated that part
of the treaty regarding the Black sea
and there was none to say her nay,

LEAVE SPENT AT RIVIERA
STOPS YANK GRUMBLING

Miss Mary Paxton of Independence,
a graduate of the School Of Journal
ism, who is doing Y.M.C.A. canteen
work in France recently spent a
vacation at Mention, resort on the
Mediterranean at the boundary be-
tween France and Italy. The follow
ing from the Independence Examiner
is her account of the American SOL
der on leave in France.
I'VE have known for long time
that a soldiers viewpoint was
changed by his leave and we found
out why when we were gone. The
way the army and Y. NJ. C. A. has
worked this out is the finest piece
of propaganda ever put across. Most
of our men are terribly homesick.
They are not getting home as fast as
they want to. They are stuck down
in some muddy little French village
mostly. The people are poor and the
tradespeople greedy, but not more
greedy than some of the shop peo-
pie around the camp towns at home.
Our soldiers get a crouch on France,
the army and everything that keeps
them here. In the Army of Occupa-
tion the Germans are putting across
a wonderful piece of propaganda by
a steady underselling to the Ameri-
can Army. The Germans are afraid
not to make it pleasant for the Amer
leans. AS a result most of our army
is getting pro-Boche. All the A.E.F.
are grumbling-that is before they go
on leave.
Then they are sent on leave to
the great play grounds of the world.
Suppose the French army were in
America and the French government
took over Atlantic City, San Diego,
Hot Springs and the other great
American resorts, we would think the
French government was doing good
deal to make the men happy. Well,
that is exactly what our government
has done here. We saw for ourselves
why the mems views were changed.
Our own viewpoint was, for we were
beginning to grumble like the SOL
diers at these little muddy smelly
French villages. Then the beauty
of France burst on us in the Riviera
as ii does not the soldiers.
What happens to the buck private?
He is given travel orders and allowed
all the time for travel he needs and
then seven days in the leave area to
which he has been sent. At the train
The Evening Missourian. [volume] (Columbia, Mo.) 1917-1920, 1919-05-07

/ a Y man meets him and sends him to
one of the great hotels where dough
| boys and dukes rub elbows now. He
| is given a luxurious French bed with
sheets and a private bath, white tiled,
often. Then he goes over to the Ca
sino which the Y hos taken over.
There he finds beaucoup American
girls to amuse him. AT Nice the Ca
sino is out over the Mediterranean and
is like a Moorish palace. In MentorI
and Monte Carlo one seems to be in
marble halls. In the morning there is
always band concert, there are hikes
and donkey rides and excursions into
the Alps and picnies into the hills.
There he meets Australians, British
Scotch, New Zealanders, Africans,
Belgians and French, and in particu-
lar the attractive French girls who
come thoroughly chaperoned by their
mothers. These are quite a contrast
to the French cOw-girls who he had
become satisfied was the typical
French girl.
But the real attraction to him is
to get to talk and dance with and
look at real American girls" No
matter how many pretty French wom-
en- or WAACS ther are at the Casino,
it is the American girls who get the
heaviest rush. The buck private has
been most hOmesick for his own kind
of women. If he does not want to
dance, there is always a movie show
and vaudeville going on with the
Worlds Greatest performing for his
benefit. And so he has seven days in
fairyland, sleeping in a decent bed
and eating something else besides
corn willie and beans and getting to
talk to his own kind. Is it any won
der he goes back feeling that the
army, the and the other forces at
work over there are trying to make
him happy?
% what has this cost him? Nothing,
except what he wanted to buy to send
home to let the folks at home know
what a good time he was having.
"They asked US to stay down there
and help soldiers spend these seven
unbelievable days, but somehow we
felt after all they needed US a little
more back here in the mud. We know,
however, that our work here is much
easier because Of the leave areas.
Indeed l think if the Y had failed,
which it has not, in every other field,
it has justified its existence in its
leave area work"
