English control of Egypt may be said to have begun when, in 1875, Stephen Cave and Colonel Stokes were sent to that country to inquire into its poor financial condition. In November, 1876, Goshen and Jou- bert's mission on behalf of the Brit- ish and French bondholders resulted in the dual control, one British offi- cial to superintend the revenue and a French the expenditure. Another result was the internationalization of the rallroads and of the port of Alex- andria. In 1882 a rebellion under Arabi Pasha broke out, which resull- key.

WHY DO THEY FIGHT * 'The Allies for Peace of Mind, Ger i many For a Great Empire, F. ¥ Simonds in. the Review of Re- views, . | / What are the enemies of Gerinany fighting for? What are their terms of peace? It is impossible to say, | because, first of all, the Allies are fighting a state of mind. What Eur- | ope is facing is one more of the wars | that have been fought to preserve | the balance of power and to estab | lish the fact that one race, one na- | tion, cannot rule in Europe. Peace | now in the minds of the French and the British, of the Russians and the Italians, would be but a truce, an- other pause such as that of Nimwe. gen or of Amiens, a breathing spell while Germany reorganized for a new attack, having harvested the profits and sought tp guard against the errors of her first venture. i What Germany is now fighting for | is the right to dominate Central Eur- | ope from the Baltic to the Black Sea! and control Western Asia. Austria has become a mere tool, Hungary an ally, whose integrity and safety de- | pend upon Prussian protection. Ser-| bia is conquered, and Bulgaria, hay-| ing thrown herself into Prussian! arms, can exist only as Germany as- sures it against Russian attack. As for Turkey, the Russian, Italian, ! British, French fleets and armies are | at its doors, and without German aid its doom is sealed. - = | A peace now, that restored Bel-! gium to its previous state, left! France intact, turned back Russian | Poland to the Czar and permitted! Italy to take the Trentino and Tri-| este, to take Albania and the Egean Islands, which permitted the British! and the French to divide German! colonies, would still leave Germany | not merely the advantage, but far on the-road to the world power of Bern- : hardi and to the domination of Eur- ope for which Napoleon and Lou's] XIV, strove in vain. ' Once this mighty Empire had been reorganized, "Germany would be ready to retake Trieste and return to | the port of Antwerp, while it could organize a new and deadly thrust at Britain, both across Suez and by the Euphrates valley and the Bagdad Railrdad to India. Unquestionably before undertak- ing a new war Germany would seck to placate France. Between the Re- public and the Empire there is no rivalry, save that which grows ou of Alsace-Lorraine To-day Ger- many is willing to return to France, Metz and «the French-speaking dis- tricts of Lorraine, to buy off the French and .abolish their grievance jut if France were out of the ques- tion, could Russia and Britain com- bined defeat the Germans? Has not the true stumbling block been the French military strength, and was not the battle of the Marne the real defeat of German plans? To-day Germany desires peace be cause there j§ nothing to be won that | is essential to her plans, if she can but hold that portion of her con- | quests which she means to hold as! the guarantee of her future great- | ness. She desires peace because the | economic pressure updn her is ter- | rific, and her people are beginning | to suffer and perhaps to murmur.'| But by peace ¢he Germans still mean | peace with profit, with an assured fu- | ture bought by the terrific losses of | the last months of slaughter. } Big Medical Fees. Half a dozen doctors are now being paid £5,000 a year by the Admiralty. Private practice is not forbidden, but duties. On one occasion the late King Ed- ward asked ome of his medical at- tendants what a first-rate medical man would make, and was told that £15,000 a year would hit the mark, But the King's informant added that | a big barrister would beat that by £10,000. . It is on record that for a journey. to Petrograd to vaccinate thé Em- press Catherine II, Dimsdale received £10,000, an an- nuity of £500, and a Russian And much more recently, the Czar paid £15000 to a Mostow doctor for two days' attendance. | But the biggest medical fee on re- cord was paid to Dr. Gale, the blind médical electrician, for a few weeks' successful treatment of a nfillion- aire's leg. He got £50,000. The Military Cross. The Military Cross, designed pressly for the present war, is of sil- verfi and is 1%in. square.
