HE WAS 'A GAY OLD BOY
Late Klnit of the llelatana a
' (avllnnt, a Rounder and a
( Hpender.
Kins I,eupold'a crecr of gallantry dates
back to the dayi of Cora'l'earl, that famoua
adventuress whoxe adventures amused Eu
rope In th middle of the last century. The
women Involved since then range from la
dles of his court to music hall performers.
One was Clara Ward, Princess de Chlmay,
thi American woman whose elopement from
Brussels with the gypsy musician Klgo was
a scandal ten years or so ago. She la said
to have first lost caste In Belgian society
through the king's indiscreet attentions to
her. Then there was Mile. Cleo de Merode,
the Tarlslan danneu.se who wore her hair
over her ears and who made a brief visit
to New York .In 1SU7. Hhe thus describes
her first encounter with Uie king:
"One night at the Orand opera In the
ballet of L.'Afrlcan,' 1 was applauded by
a tall man with a long white beard. 1 had
done nothing estraordlnary. I had not
danced half so welt as others. 'Unoriginal,'
waa my own comment to Vasques. our
ballet master, when I returned to the
wings. 'Go back, quick,' said Vasquex.
'Dane again. It Is the king of the Bel
gians.' I danced again. . He stood In the
au-le waving his handkerchief. He kept me
dancing for three quarters of an hour. How
angry Vasques was! The curtain couldn't
be dropped while the king applauded. Vas
ques scolded me for attracting so much at
tention, but waa It my faultT"
The acquaintance with the king boosted
Cleo at once Into fame and fortune.
It would be tiresome to enumerate one
half the women who shared the favor of
this merry monarch. There were stories
of his lying hidden In a Swiss chalet for
weeks while his ministers were anxiously
seeking him to consult him on affairs of
state. There Is a story of a supper party
which he gave In Paris to ten chorus girls
of the Opera Comlque, at the close of which
each girl waa presented with a diamond
necklace of enormous value. There are the
stcrles of his visits to London muslo balls,
where ladles of the gay world conduct a
btauty show In the foyers and where It Is
said he supplied unlimited champagne to all
rho attracted his attention. Mr. Stead
dragged him Into his "Modem Minotaur"
exposures In 'he Pall Mall Gazette. Per
haps Leopold's fame touched Its lowest
point when a notorious woman, a Mrs. Jef
fries, was arraigned in a London police
court on a charge of purveying young girls
fo- Immoral purposes. The woman held a
defiant attitude In court, maintaining that
she waa a person of respectability.
"Well, who will vouch for your respect
ability?" asked the magistrate. -
"Why. the king of the Belgians," she
Impudently replied, and forthwith she waa
hustled Into a back room, where the pro
ceedings that led to her release with a
nominal fine were conducted in strict
aecrecy.
These notorloua acta of gallantry were
not the only scandals that gathered about
Leopold's old age. Hla amaslng capacity
for spending money had entangled him in
more than on ugly affair. From the Bel
gian people he derived an Income of I'W,
000 a year. He inherited a fortune of at
least 16.000,000 from his father, yet he is
accused of having virtually embexsled and
dissipated th dowry of hla wife and the
fortune of hla sister, the unhappy Carlotta,
widow of Maximilian, once emperor of Mex
ico, who has been under restraint as In
sane ever since the tragedy of Queretaro
In th middle 60n. The amount of this es
tate Is said to have been $10,000,000. It was
placed in Leopold' trusteeship, and despite
efforts, legal and diplomatic, no accounting
of it has ever been obtained from him.

THIS CONVICT MADE GOOD
Trusty Who Han Away and Earned
Enough to Mare Sister's
Home.
' Countless pages of romance have been
written of convict herots who redeemed
themselves In their moral aspect by vicar
ious suffering and secriflce to aid those who
had befriended them. Benign philosophers
have preached th doctrine, that there is
some residual good In every man, no mat
ter how deep In sin he may have fallen.
An English bishop took the word of a
confessed thief as against the word of a
minister of state because of faith In ulti
mata human goodness and he waa Justified.
It is possible, and indeed In some phases
of the matter customary, to become maud
lin in sympathy for criminals. This, of
course, Is merely an excess of sentiment
that la quite aa unjustifiable as the lack
of It.
Out from the whirl of t'ur material life
come occasionally strange atorlea of human
goodrwsa In those whom aoclety has cast
out. Convicts with hearts and loves and
fine Impulses are by no means rare. James
O. Pogue was of this class. He was a
convict In the Kansas state penltentary
at Lansing, where he aa sent for grand
larcen)'. It appears that his only sister
had mortgaged her home to provide funds
for his defense. But nevertheless he was
sent to prison. His conduct aa a convict
was so good that he was made a trusty,
an office that is something of a sinecure
and Is the only thing that makes prison
life endurable to some men. But he never
forgot the sacrifice made for him by his
sister, and when the mortKage became
due he knew that the little property must
bo sacrificed.
James Pogue, wasn't a hero. He was a
convict with years of Imprisonment before
him. As a trusty he could almost enjoy
these years. If he sacrificed the confl
dunoe of the warden he knew that the
future would be black and terrible. But
there was his sister's home that was In
danger beeause of his wrongdoing. After
weighing all the elements of the problem
James Pogue decided to make a supreme
effort. He escaped from the prison and
went to work. Wandering over the country,
h did whatavtr his hands found to do.
But always he saved and remitted regu
larly all he could spare. Ha worked In
coal mines, in harvest fields, In railroad
section gangs. Nothing was too hard for
him, and through it all he never drank
liquor or spent a cent that wasn't neces
sary. At last he had saved the amount
needed to redeem his sister's home. In all
It was a little more than 60. After that
James Pogue could have gone far away
and lost himself. But he didn't. He was no
hero, but h knew his obligations to so
ciety and he wan tired of being In con
stant dread of capture. Wh-n his purpose
was achieved he aguin returned to prison
and to a servitude worse than he had be
fore known. He could not be a trusty
again. He could have no benefit for good
behavior. But somehow James Pogue rises
out of the muek of dishonor and claims
respect. If he. Isn't a hero he did some
thing that w'as almost heroic Kansas
City Times.
