Friulein Helene Won D6nnices. the daughter
OF a Bavarian official OF high rank. first met
Ferdinand Lassale at the house OF Berlin
lawyer in 1862. Lassalle's fame as n social re-
former was then at its zenith. No name was
SO frequently on the lips of the toiling masses
as his. and its mention was usually coupled
with the blessing OF the speaker. Hclene's
fame. though of another kind, was not confined
to the walls OF her fathers house in Munich.
A favorite with the royal ladies OF the Bavaran
court, with an intellect which learning had
helped to beautifv, Helene Won D6nniEes ut
the age OF IS had the honor OF being the most
beautiful an the most brilliant young woman
in Bavaria. In her person she was tall and
stately and had a perfect figure. Her clear
blue eyes. golden hair, and Grecian profile had
won her admirers by the score. She had been
educated in Italy and had travelled much. She
as a clever little jew probably understood, and
undoubtedly very ugly.
