QUEEN—teautiful and unfortunate—chanced to draw off one of her gloves at the wrong moment. ‘The trivial action cast her into prison and wrecked great plans for her future. It was, perhaps, L one of the minor causca that led to her death end thet thus changed history, An “it” as important as it was petty. The woman was Marie Stuart, Queen of Scotland, known to fame as “Mary, Queen of Scots.” Her admirers call her a martyr; others use @ar | less flattering terms about her. This is not the place to discuss her oliar | acter, but merely to tell a part of her tragic story. | Mary was proclaimed Queen when she was only six days ol4. Aer | father, King James V. of Scotland, died on Dec, 14, 1542, and on the eame | day his baby daughter, leas than a week old, became sovereign of | troublous country. When she was six years old she was solemnly betrot to the Dauphin (Crown Prince) of France and was sent to Paris to be brought up in her future husband's court. | An innocent child tossed into a den of wild beasts would have been safer than a girl of Mary's beauty and gayety in that most corrupt and vile of all European courts.

FE often hear the remark from mid die-aged New Yorkers that the city has been entirely rebuilt with- in their recollection. This is lit- erally true as regards the down- town skyscraper section. At the} other end of town, around and| above Central Park, it is a case) not so much of rebuilding as the | rearing of new and stately man- sions where only goat-pastures had been. The result is the same all| een A Girls had charge of the Iittle Scottish Queen's upbringing. And .

Soon after coming to the throne he died, leaving his girl | Wife a widow at seventeen. | In 1561 Mary went back to Scotinnd to rule over her own people. France had boasted the g2 vest of courts, Scotland's was the gloomiest. The young Queeti did not wnderstand her new subjects, and they made no epectal effort to under+ stand her. The land was rent by religious and political strife, and, as usual, ‘was more or less at odds with England, It would have required a Queen with 0001 head, loxical brain and a genius for stateemanship to steer a straight, safe | course in such a tempest-stricken sea. And Mary had none of those qualities, | She made mistake after mistake and won the hatred of a large faction of her people. She married her cousin, Lord Darnley. They were unsulted to each other amd were miserably unhappy together. (Their only child later united the English end Scotch nations, governing both of them as “James VI. of Scotland and James L of England.") In 1667 Darnley was Killed. The Queen's foes suspected her rightfully or wrongfully—of a share in the murder. The brutal Nari of Bothwell, whose complictty in the killing can scarcely be doubted, married Mary a few | months later, having seized her and carried her to his castle. This marriage was | the final blow to the loyalty of most of the Scots. The nobles forced Mary to eurrender, drove Bothwell Into exile and put the Queen into prison. ‘They made her give up the throne tn favor of her baby son. Shorn of power and Mberty, the unhappy Queen was held captive in Loch Leven Castle. But abe! still had youth and charm, and many of the Scotch pitied and loved her. Power- | ful nobles were ready—from devotion or self-interest—to make a mighty effort to | restore her to sovereignty. A plot was formed for her escape. Should she get ee , free there was still a strong hope that she might repadu wt | ~~ Feast 4 portion of her old power.

Onlookers noticed at once that the || | | bared hand was white, emall and shapely, not the sort of hand that would or- | dinarily belong to a woman who spent her daya wringing out wet clothes and | dabbling with hot suds. The white ungloved hand betrayed the Queen's identit». \aee Was recaptured and thrown into prison once more. | _ When, some time afterward, Mary succeeded in escaping from Loch Levelt | Castle in a small boat, the “psychological moment” had pasved. Her foes were too etrong for her. She could make no headway aginst them. In despar, she | turned for protection to Queen Elizabeth of Bngland. Elizabeth had aiways been bitterly jealous of Mary‘s charm; she tmted her for the wondrous beauty that gripped men’s hearts; she feared her as e political rival. Bo, when Mary came to England for refuge, Elizabeth ordered her tm- | prisoned, and, after keeping the luckleas woman @ captive for yeara, had her beheaded. ing to what seems almost like | total absence. The City Hall, Cas- | tle Garden, the Jumel Mansion and Van Cortlandt manor house re- main, under municipal protection, the cost of which is not ungrudg- ingly given. The old Stone House at Gowanus, where Washington made his last stand in the almost fatally disastrous battle of Long Island, is probably doomed to obliteration. Fraunce's Tavern, where the memorable farewell of Washington and his generals took place, has been sturdily rebuilt so that it can earn its own living as a res- - taurant. \ It is different in European cities, notably in Rome, where the an- client palaces are seldom if ever torn down, and in some cases have been occupied by the descendants of one family for many centuries. Of course there are practical reasons for the difference. The European ancestor’s house was literally his fortrese, and was baflt to stand against sieges and time. The American merchant prince’s castle is his place of business, and its fortifications are finan- | edal, not feudal. The modern New Yorker does business at the old stand, expand- ing the structure as commercial needs require, and lives in his cottage of villa in some real residential section far away. The modern Roman holds to his residential prestige, and brings business into his home to | maintain it, by renting the basement for a store and the top floor to. lodgers. _ There is always marked contrast between picturesqueness and progress.
