For “Second” has been a grim hoodoo for a score of monarchs during the past thousand years. | Searcely any sovereign who bore that fatal numeral has lived to a natural} death or has died in peace. Usually sudden death or abdication has bee: their lot. For example: ALEXANDER II. of Russia waded through years of nihilism, revolution and foreign wars, and in 1881 was assassinated by a band of his own people. EDWARD II. of England plunged his country into the horrors of etvil war after a crooked reign, and his subjects dethroned him. After whic they punished him further by throwing him into a dungeeon, where he was put to death by torture. NAPOLEON II. (L’Aigion) was never allowed to ascend the imperial throne of his father, but was brought up as a prisoner in the Austrian court. ‘There bis constitution was purposely ruined and he died in early youth of consumption and other maladies. RICHARD If, of England went through @ brief period of misrule and of war that was followed by a revolution which dethroned him He, Hk Edward. died in prison, supposedly at the hand of Pierce Exton, a paid assassin JAMES IT, of England was deposed by his subjects and died in exile. ABDUL HAMID If. of Turkey was kicked off his blood-soaked throne by his own subjects, and died in ex NICHOLAS IL of Russia was dethroned during the present war, was sent to prison, and is bel gts Kaiser is Wilhelm “Second.” And if there is anytaing in prece- es Publishing Co, (The New York Kvening World! | be known as the war to end all w The days we once called peacoful were filled with little con- flicts—wars of races, of religions, of government, of | industry, of men and women. | The days we shall call peaceful may see established & permanent armistice between all those struggling ele- ments of human life which we once believed must strive ceaselessly against each other till the great day when the lion and the lamb sould te down together without | the lamb's being inside. Among the lesser, or perhaps I should say the less obvious wars which the world war has already termin- ated is that which Bernard Shaw characterized in its in- dividual or retail aspect as the “duel of sex.” Tt was not alone the struggle for woman suffrage in the English-speak- ing races that made the ten years before 1914 a period of extraordinary tension between men and women, Waile in America we were carrying Votes for women banners and cousins in England were smashing windows and pouring actd tn mail boxes, a much more serious tevolt—a revolt | ainst social ethics as well as politics—-was being conducted by the women of Germany and Scandinavia ed to have been put to death. of Engiand was the best hated King of his century. nage Peete ice rhea | acaauway.
