When Leopold II., King of Bclgluin,
died recently there passed from earth
one of the most remnrkabie inonarchs
of Europe—a man whose characteristics ran the entire gamut from kingly
dignity to bruzen immorality, a man
who was as famous for his busiues?
ability as he was infamous for hie
meretricious conduct.
A giant In physique, a master of dlplomacy, a prodigious worker, a lover
of his country and Us people, a monarch of mingled austerity and democracy, a faithless husband, a cruel and
u n n a t u r a l father, a marvel of tendernest to the children of the streets and
a monster of cruelty as the personal
owner of the Congo region, a breaker
of h e a r t s and the victim of h e a r t
i
dal to Europe. His t r e a t m e n t of his
two elder d a u g h t e r s has been notorious. It has been suspected t h a t he
squandered the fortune of his sister,
the insane ex-Empreas Carlotta, o(
Mexico.
He stinted his youngest
d a u g h t e r In the necessaries of her position, and his relations with the Baroness Vaughan, the daughter of a
Janitor whom he raised to the nobility, amazed even the boulevardiers of
P a r i s by their boldneas.
Yet for twenty years a f t e r he became king the little t h a t was known
of Leopold was favorable. He was the
son of Leopold I., the ruler whoso influence over Queen Victoria of Great
Britain was so valued by her a n d so
beneficial to her people. Born In 1835,
he was brought up so strictly that
some moralists have s a ~ his later
libertinism was in the n a t u r e of a reaction. He found his principal relaxation in travel. Before he was 21 he
had visited a large part of Asia Minor,
and a f t e r his m a r r i a g e with the Archduchess Marie Henrlette of Austria In
1853, he traveled to the Holy Land, to
India and Chlnn. He was about to set
off for Japan, which at t h a t time had
only recently been opened to Europeans, when the death of his father,
in 1865, forced him to assume the
burdens of a king.
For a t i m e men spoke well of the
young king.
His great height and
military carriage made him a dignified
figure.
His family life seemed happy,
and was, at any rate, not disturbed by
open scandal, and tales were told of
the laborious days he spent in his castle at Laeken, working over affairs of
state.

them t h e i r villages are burned. Soldiers raised u n d e r ' such conditions
and held in practical slavery have
been armed with the best of rifles and
ammunition and have been allowed to
tyrannize over their fellow countrymen. On the slightest provocation
they have been let loose to raid, pillage, mutilate and kill. T h e i r officers
have had little control over them, and
Bometimes, it has seemed, little desire
to control them.
But of all the abuses to which Irrefutablo testimony has been brought,
the worst has been the exploitation of
Leopold's monopoly in rubber. To European and American t r a d e r s Leopold's regime has meant the setting u p
of a monopoly and tho exclusion of all
but government employes. Occasionally an outrage such as tho execution
of the ex-missionary, Stokes, in 1895
and the Imprisonment of the Austrian
t r a d e r Rabenlck. In 1901, h a s aroused
foreign indignation. But t h e worst of
the system has been felt by the natives.
On them has been Imposed a rubber
tax to raise which h a s m e a n t almost
a decimation of the population. The
officials of the F r e e State have been
egged on by a system of payment for
results to exact from the miserable
population every ounce t h a t Is possible. To get t h e rubber the natives
have been forced to take long journeys
from home, and have been visited with

come down to us through all ages.
Poetry, music and fiction are based
upon woman's love, and all the moveuents of history are mainly due to the
aentlmenta or ambitions she has Inspired. From the hearthstone, around
which lingers the recollections of our
mother, from the fireside, where our
wife awaits us. comes all the home,
nil the purity, all the courage with
which we fight the battles of life.

" T h e working girl makes the best

assertion of Miss Mary MacArthur,

has practically built up the English
organization, of which she Is president,

It is a very big and definite force in
English labor movements.
And In defiance of all the doleful
masculine prognostications t h a t girls
and women who work outside the home
are thereby unfitted for tho n a t u r a l
feminine functions of wifehood and
motherhood. Miss MacArthur reiterates : "It Is the worklngwomen who
make the best wives—and the best

Ho notes In the long list of mechanical
