of an American grocer nee she begins
gadding around among the crowned
heads of Europe. She is a rustler and
the world is beginning to know 1t.
James Lee was the eminently respect

this nan IL is needless to say
that Miss Lee was a beautiful and fas-
cinating young woman. She met an
an Austian nobleman, and of he
succumbed to her manifold charms of
person and intellect, and married her
in proverbially hot haste. Equally well
will it be understood by all who have
familiarized themselves with the mod
ern school of romance that this young
lady was of a most ambitious nature,
and determined to reach a high place
by the use of her money, her husbands
title, her beauty and her popularity at
court. She became skilled i'm diplomacy
and played her cards as shrewdly and
far more successfully than the re-.
nowned Becky Sharp.
In the course of time the grocer's
daughter, now the Countess Waldersee.

countess, who took the young lady
under her protection. and with the
boldness characteristic of true descend

Bismarck a considerable section of her

reasons for hating Herbert. No clue
is given us to what those reasons were,

dersee to thwart the chancellor by pre-
venting Herbert from coming to the
front. The young emperor 10y refusing
Bismarck's request took the first step
towards the separation which has just
eliminated. IL will be readily seen
from this narrative that the Countess
Waldersee has a large-sized pull upon
the administration, and that in the
distribution of ~postohices and other
spoils she is bound to play an import
ant part. No matter how strong their
backing, candidates who are so unfort-
innate as to be out with her stand not
a ghost of a show. IL is not every
American girl who is destined to II a
great empire like Germany. still, as il
is said to be within the range of posi-
bilities for any American boy to be
president of the United states, so all
American girls can live in hope of
duplicating the glittering career of the
daughter of old mar Lee.

ST PETERSBURG, June 1.-The famous Pau

creation. This regiment had an origin probably
the most unique in the military history of the
world, excepting the single regiment of the
KING OF Dahomey's female warriors, which
consists exclusively of women who have been
that monarch's mistresses. This Paulovslzy
regiment was founded in 1890 by the notorious
CZarlna Cathar1ne ii, and was at first composed
entlreiy OF that sovereign's lovers. She had q
special fondness for seeking paramours
among private soldiers of the army,
ana as soon as she tired of one
lover, which was generally in a few DAYS or even
sooner, she would enroll him in this new regi-
men5 whose members were to have special
privileges and receive extra pay In this way
