It' Its the ea with nations. The United States relatively speaking, a young nati but has now reached the age, in opinion of some of its historians which it can safely be told` ear truths about its founders. It is longer necessary that George. Was ingtoa should be represented as sort of American Francis of Ass He can be viewed not as a demi but -as a very human sort of chap w on one occasion, according to a c temporary historian, "swore like angel from heaven," who had fondness for race horses and ga cocks and sound wine, and an app ciative eye for a pretty girl no m ter whether she happened to black, brown or white. There have been several histo ons recently who have been diggi into the private lives of the Fath of the American Constitution, a have presented the results of th research to the American publ Speaking generally, the effect h been much /like that which a fath and mother might contrive if their daughter's twenty-first bin day they gently confided the fact her that through some oversig they had neglected to get marrie and that each of them had anoth mate living. Incredulity has been f lowed by horror and horror by ra and indignation that the beautif illusions should be destroyed. Som Americans have steadfastly refused to believe what they have been told. Some have contended that it was propaganda, probably o f Briti origin. Others have found son satisfaction in reflecting that, med rcrities though they are, they y never committed some of the excu es attributed to me whom• they ha been taught to reverence. A wiser view is expressed by D Albeot Bushnell Hart, one of th kindliest and most tolerant of Am riven historians. He thinks it good thing for the American, u ny other people. to learn that the ncestors were not precisely ste ngravings, that they were huma wings like the rest of us, subjec o the same weaknesses and tempts ions, but that what made them i ustrious was their ability to reels nd if they fell to rise again, and de pite many shortcomings accom lish something great and permanen n human history. It is not neces ary, it is not indeed wise, for Am cleans to suppose that the men wh were responsible for the indepen ence of the American colonie ere' unanimously heroes. Some o hem entered the campaign for in ependence from the basest motives ome of the greatest of them, lik Patrick Henry and Samuel Adams tsisted the Federal Constitution a ng as they could. When the move ent for independence began, the ones were quite as good citizens s the republicans. In the War of Independence any prominent Americans were kewarm, and at heart were rather opeful that the revolution should come a rebellion. When they saw whose banners victory was like - to perch, they rallied to that ban - r and so won much temporary nefit and post mortem fame. They eyed politics then as adroity as eir descendants play politics to- y, and perhaps nothing would tonish them more than the knowl- ge that the ward heads and sses of a hundred and fifty years o have, in the course of time, been shrined as holy statesmen and pe- sts, Nevertheless, Prof. Hart ys that the view sometimes put rward that the American Consti- tion was made by a body of land- ners, manufacturers, merchants, nd holders, ship builders, slave ping planters and so forth, who ed the text so that they might able to collect their bonds in full, is to pieces of its own weight. Nevertheless, the intelligent Am - should be told that the eclaration of Independence and the nstitution of the United States are cuments and exactly comparable the tables of stone that Moses ought down from Mount Sinai. me flatterer has spoken of the mer as the greatest feat of the man intellect on record, a view ich, we presume, is not now uni- sally held.

He was angry if any e important military decision was made without his knowledge. He insisted upon being kept informed as to what was going on at the front, and re- ports were made to him. It seems improbable that he could understand half of the information that thus reached him. Unless he was merely displaying his arrog,ince, it seems not unlikely that his information was passed on to quarters where it could be understood and valued. Another character little heard of abroad appears .frequently in the letters. That is Aida Virubova, a young woman who was married to a naval officer, but soon divorced hid,. She was then presented by the Czar with a little house near the Imperial palace and between her and the Czarina there grew up a mysterious friendship that has never been ex- plained. The Czarina appeared to be infatuated with the woman and showed jealousy of her. At the same time she was always thrusting her upon the notice of the Czar. She was also a confident of Rasputin's, and exerted irtfltierlffe in the highest court circles, having to her credit at least one cabinet, appointment. She appears to have been a woman of abominable character and the Czarina writes to the Czar about her escapades, at the same time confess- ign her deep regard for her. The intimate relations with the gross, drunken, debauched, filthy monk„ Rasputin with the Imperial family, naturally led to rumors which reflected upon the Czarina. But" these appear to have been groundless, The Czarina was probably a virtuous wife, although not the less likely on that account to bring about the ruin of her husband. She was a religious maniac, and seemed to believe that by the mere expedient of burning an extra large candle or by spending a few extra minutes in prayer, she could correct military reverses and throw back German armies, She was as superstitious as any peasant, and it was upon this weakness that Ras- putin worked.
