Indeed no monarch ever did more for his people than Louis IX. did foi France. Born in 1215, he learned from his mother, Queen Blanche of Castile, those qualities which made him what ha became. His father died when be was 11 years old and during the ten years that elapsed before he bet ame of age his mother reigned as regent lor him. Even when, at 21 he assumed the reins of government, so great was his mother's influent e over him that she remained his chief counselor. He laid wise plans for the internal improvement of his dominions hut these were Interfered with by his crusaders. In 1244, Jerusalem was taken by A A.toU TMtflH' to Hlclly and deposited In the Abbey GOOD, Horde. from western Turkey, the Chiistlans Is the city end throughout Palestine were massacred, and, as a consequence, the seventh crusade waa proclaimed In 124S. Louie had already taken the crusaders' vow during an Illness, and at once prepared to lead a formidable army against the Moslems. Over two years were passed in preparations, and in August, 1248, after having settled the affairs of the kingdom and appointed his mother regent, he sailed With a great fleet, bearing an army of nearly 60,000 men. The rendezvous was Cyprus. Here Louts arrived in a few weeks, and remained nearly a year completing his preparations. In June, 1249, he sailed from Cyprus to Invade Egypt, considering the Valley of the Nile the key to the whole eastern situation. Damletta was taken Without serious resistance, but instead pf advancing at once Louis waited for five months, uhtll reinforcements Should arrive. This delay, Inexcusable from a military point of View, gave the sultan of Egypt time to collect a considerable army, and the Inundation of the Nile came on, still further delaying and hampering the French.

In 1297 he was canonized by Pope Boniface VIII. Philip the Fair, the grandson of the saint, waa then reigning in France, and aa many churches made application for a retie of the saintly king. Philip authorized a partial dispersion of the bones of Louis. A rib waa given to Notre Dame, the skull waa placed in the Holy Chapel at Parts and other bones were deposited elsewhere His military career was a failure. Every important operation he undertook proved unsuccessful from an apparent inability to appreciate the value of time as a factor In war. He wasted a year at Cyprus half that time at at TuDamietta and another half-yea- r nis, the delay In each case being responsible for the disorganization and ruin of his army and the failure that ensued la those days' the reputation of a king depended almost entirely on his success as a soldier, and no more striking evidence can be found of the sturdiness of character possessed by Louis than the fact that he retained his hold upon the affections 6f his people and his Influence In affairs of state after so terrible a failure as that of his first crusade An explanation may possibly be found in the many laws he causea to be enacted for the Improve. ment of the condition of the The common people of France prospered during the reign of this good king as never before; France bad peace while the rest of Europe was rent with civil strife st Nawm for )!

' ui ed Fifty ttiuiuand peisons derive their livelihood from the city of New York as employes of th. municipal government or of the four counties which make up the greater city.

The remainder are distributed through the other city departments and county offices, 175 being in the registrars office In Kings county. In a few of the departments of the city the number of employee varies according to the season, but the average Is a little above 60,000. - KING LOUIS IX. Their advance was at first rewarded by a victory, but the Egyptians, rallying In force, cut off retreat so that Louis, with 30,000 men, was compelled to surrender.
