A REAL ROMANCE.
A Pair Of Lovers Find Themselves Pos
sessed of 800, 900
Cincinnati Gazette.

There are few romanccs III real life.
Imaginative writers construct many Of
them, and please the popular fancy,
but there are few occurrences i'll life to
furnish foundation for any. A genuine
affair of the kind occurred in Cincinnati
u few days ago, which is worth more
than mere formal marriage notice, and
which may tend to assure the immense
army of hopeful living couples that
there may be something romantic in
store for all.
The heroine was an intelligent but I'M
pretending girl, who was forced by cir
cumstances to work for u living.
She sewed i'll store at n salary so meag-
er, and with work so laborious, that she
gladly accepted a position as waiter-girl
i'll ~ popular boardng-house. She had
previously been offered position rs
govcrncss, but preferred the other. The
only advantage the boarding-house af-
fordcd over the store was that of family
sympathy. She was not so lonesome,
had the symphaty Of the family she
served, and although the wages we're
less rcmmerative, she had less hard
work, and besides had the friendship Of
the family she served.
Among the boarders was one proba-
bly, rs poor us herself. lie was advertis-
ing solicitor for city paper, with
very moderate income. Believing
themselves poor, but yet able to keep
the wolf from the door, an attachment
sprang up, which developed into an en-
gagement OF course in their case, rs
in that of all other lovers, the course of
love did not run smoothly. There were
no doubts Of faithfulncss and the conse-
quent quarrcls, until, Il few days ago.
the young lady learned that she had fall
len heir to mn estate i'll Germany valued
ut $4,000, and Il personally worth $40
600 more, making in all about 100000
III American money. The young lady re-
NAMED true 70 the lover Of her poverty,
and their marriage was consumated il
few days ago at the Grand Hotel. 1t
was case of genuine affection. and as
such deserves the symphatv of all
lovers

EMPEROR WILLIAM AND THE AS
SASSINS.
Three Previous Attempts Upon His Life.
New York Tribune

The Emperor William, who is now in
his S1st year, has thrice already been
in danger of death from the assassin's
hand. In 1S49, during the political fer
ment of that year, an unsuccessful at
tempt was made on the life Of the En-
peror then crown prince), ut Nieder
lngelheim, on June II, while he was on
his way to Baden to command the
Prussian forces sent there to quell the
revolutionary movement and restore
order LII July, 1861, about six months
after he assembled the throne as King
of Prussia, a desperate attempt was
made to assassinate him by Oscar
Becker, a Leipsg student, who was pos
sessed with the notion that King Viii
liam was incompetent to promote the
union of Germany. Becker was sen
fenced to twenty years imprisonment
for this misdeed. The third and more
recent attack was made on Saturday,
May II, at $50 o'clock in the afternoon,
at the moment when His Majesty, ac-
companied by the Grand Duchess Of
Baden, driving from the Brandenburg
gate, along the Avenue Inter den Lin
den, reached the neighborhood of
kleine Mauerstasse. Hoedel the
would-be assassin, fired two shots into
the imperial carriage from the side
walk, without effect, and then ram into
the middle Of the avenue, followed by
the crowd which had assembled. An
attempt being made to capture him, he
fired three more shots from his revolver,
and threw the weapon away. When
next day the ministry congratulated
the emperor OH his escape, His Majesty
replied. "This is the third time that
have been fired at In all my anxieties
and troubles, | find my consolation i'll
the sympathy Of the population, which
has been shown from the first moment
in 50 striking manner, and which has
done me good. One should take such
things easily When | was member
of the states ministry frequently hint
ed at the dangers which must result
from the tendencies at that time which
were hostile to the state. NV appre-
tensions We're. unfortunately, confirmed
by the year 1919. Now again, and III
an increased measure, il is the duty Of
the government to endeavor to prevent
the revolutionary elements becoming
uppermost. Every minister ought to
do his bo4t in this direction Especially
is it incumbent upon the people that
they do not let so religion, and to pre-
vent this is our main task"

A little, but savage tornado, passed
through the township Of Radner, near

heavy cloud came out Of the west and
met another cloud marching up from

running down from the cloud to the

he could see that il was moving n swath
Of trees and tossing them about with
the sinewy grip Of II giant Some trees
went down in twisted heap Of splin-

without either respect or ceremony.
