EUGENIE's IVY CROWN.
How Napoleon the Third Declared His
Love for Mile. de Montil0.

Persons who. nre fond of discussing
the old question of whether there rs such
a thing as love ut first sight never fail ~
refer, in such conversation, TO the ira
dition that the love Of Napoleon Ill for
the fair Mademoiselle de- Mon 10 was a
passion Of this type. A contemporary of
the Empress has related that Napoleon =
feeling for the Spanish girl WAS evident
70 all about the Court soon after he met
her, and that he quickly displayed the most
open attention to her. Yet il was an in
suit 10 his loved one that prickcd him into
what was tantamo,lnt To a declaration
Of his love and proposal that she be-
come the Empress of the French. This
~ how it happened.
Eugene and her mother had continual
invitations to Compiegne and the Tuilcries
and the favor shown them by the Emperor
was resented by other ladies at the Court.
Particularly did some Of them assail the
beautiful MademoiselJe de Montiio. One
evening as she was going 20 dinner on the
arm OF Colonel dc Toulongeon, slight
confusion permitted him to whisiS EugeDie
ahead of Madame Fortotil, wife Of the
mi mister OF that parne.
Madame de Fortoul was one Of the
leaders Of the group arrayed agninst
the young Spanish girl and she was
furious at the proceeding cxclaiming
to her own escort in loud angry tones,
so that all nearby heard her:
How can you permit that creature
to push past mcp'
The next morning Mademoiseile de
Montilo, with tears in her eyes, stood
on the terrace at Compiegne apart from
the others. 1t was not rfse 10 attract
Napoleon sympathy, because, in truth
the girl saw her Prince disappear in a
nightmare Of evil gossip To Napoleon
who came asking the reason for her sor-
row, she faltered:
II must go"
Little by little the Emperor drew
from her an account Of the sights and
insults she had been subjected 10, cul-
minating in the incident Of the previous
night. The Emperor listened, meditat
ing; and as he did 50 tree a string OF
ivy green from a park tore as they slowly
promenaded Deity he twisted il int
a crown and as they neared group 81
ladies and ge entleman Of the court, hc
said loud enough for them to hear every
word
Wear this one meanwhile"
Ii is an oft-toid anecdote but as IL is ol
Napoleon's proposal Of marriage, as
pretty a proposal as ever tover made
there Is no harm in risking repetition
The Emperor thus never really asked fo
her hand-he took IL Not otanother murrnur

should come TO pass the citys fire fighting
apparatus would be still more reduced
in efficiency and numbers.
Mr. Rowland and the firemen had
heart to heart discussion of conditions at
the meeting which lasted for several
hours The fremen know that the Under
writers engineer favors paid department
for Wilmington. but they also realize
that he is a man to whom they can tell
their troubles and receive an intelligent
and responsive hearing The tiremen
and the engineer threshed out many Of
the complications and difficulties under
which the present volunteer department
is working.
MIR. Howland told the firemen that
he would appear before council tonight
and voice some of their grievances from
the standpoint of the Underwriters. He
said he would suggest 10 council that the
firemen should receive sufficient funds
with which to keep their apparatus in
repair, until such time as a paid depart
ment was established here That is neces
sary, the Underwriters believe if the city
is,to receive necessary fire protection.
Protests against the attitude of coun-
ell toward the volunteer Fire Department,
both at present and in the past were ex-
planned.
William NJ. Connellev Of Weccacoe
Fire Company related the circumstances
under which he introduced bill providin
for paid FIRE department In the 1917
Legislature and also at the special session
the next wear and asserted that on both
occasions City Council opposed the pro-
ject both directly and indirectly on the
ground of the cost being prohibItive.
Al present, they not only viii not con-
slider, Mr. Connelley said, the establish
ment of paid department, but refuse To
extend necessary financial support TO the
volunteer organization.
at is not up TO the volunteer fire de-
partment to advocate apaid fire depart
ment. it is up to the city fathers and the
civic bodies who are advocating il to
come before their proposition, thanking
them for what they have done IN the
past. he concluded.
Martin Farrell, of Washington Fire
Company, recalled the cutting off Of
So, 500 from the department funds when
Phoenix Company discontinued its am
bulance service and 81 100 from Wash
lngton Company when one of its machines
was taken out of service.
Michael T. Cannon of Liberty Fire
Company stated that the volunteers will

thought that he could export feudaism to Amer

certain mobiles thirsted for regenerated feudal
power. But Americas material conditions made
feudal power impossible. The Fundamental Con-
stitutions of John Locke declared that the man
who wished to plant in the Carolnas had to hold
the land as serf and pay feudal dues to his lord.
But there were plenty of free lands just outside
