clerks desk in the Hotel Savoy yester-
day afternoon.
'1n whose namol" asked the clerk.
Sin the name of the Princess Eulalie,
the beautiful woman from Spain, " re-
piled the man
The clerk did not know what manner
of guest he was dealing with.
The stranger was well dressed in a suit
of light gray. He wore a derby hat, a
high shiny collar and black four finland
tie. He carried a small black sachel, a
cane of exactly the proper size, and on his
arm was cape overcoat. He had light
brown mustache, sharp features, and
keen blue eyes. He would attract no
particular attention in crowd either in
dress or behavior. He spoke slowly and
in quiet tones.
I'm the name of the Princess Eulalie l
demand that you accommodate me at this
hotel, he repeated.
''What claim have you upon the prin-
cess2' asked the clerk, sending for Mana
ger Decker at the same time.
''None, " replied the visitor, more than
any one of a thousand persons might
have"
'Areyo one of her sub1ects2"

land. l have been in this country fort
night. But l must have rooms here in
honor of the princess"
While this dialogue was going on Man
ager Decker came.

were broke, y" said the clerk, 1--WE might
do something for you. AS it is we can

The stranger took up his satchel aud
went to the sidewalk. He crossed the
street to the front of the New Netherland
and stood for five minutes looking at the
rooms which the royal party had occupied
He was there when a Z reporter
found him. At intervals he lifted
his hat as ladies passed Once he ap-
preached the entrance of the New Meth
erland, and, looking at party of ladies
and gentlemen in the dining room, lifted
his hat and bowed in dignited way At
length he approached man who was
standing on the walk.
SIN the name of Grover Cleveland. will
you anoint my head2" he said in the same
quiet tone.
why doy you want your head anointed?"
asked the stranger, in surprise
II am considered a slave until my head
is anointed, f" he said.
''Who considers you slave2"
''The state, f" he said.
''Who are you2" he was asked by the
reporter.
fSome say am slave" he said. "I
shall be better after l have been
anointedH
Again he went to the Savoy, and placed
his sachel gently on one Of the easy chairs
there. His method of handling his sachel
caused some uneasiness on the part of the
hotel employees.
''If he's going to drop q lot of dynamite
get him away first" the clerk said
The house detective escorted him to
the sidewalk and Policeman Barry, who
was patrolling Fifth avenue, was sent
for He took the sachel and the owner
and walked to doorway near Madison
avenue and F'ifty-ninth street, where the
sachel was opened. 1t contained soiled
linen and razor That was all. Police
man Barry gave 1t to the crank and said:
"Now go away. If you come back I'll
arrest you and take you TO the house
where we keep people. Do you under
standl"
Perfectly" was the reply, and the
stranger disappeared down Madison
avenue.
The man has been for two or three days
in the vicinity of the Savoy and New
Netherland, and is apparently insane on
the subject of the princess. At times he
has stood for half an hour looking at the
windows of the room her party occupied.
On Friday he went to one of the employees
of the hotel and said:
~ want to go to the kitchen. l must
see the chef who cooked the things the
beautiful princess ate"
That day he entered the Plaza hotel
corridor, and told a guest that he must
stay there, where he could see the rooms
occupied by the princess when she was
here. Early Saturday morning he was
seen sitting on one of the seats in the
summer house at the entrance OF Central
park looking toward the Hotel Savoy 1t
was before sunrise, and apparently he
had been there all night.
