tho panes. In spite of that, he felt that
he must rise, so he got up and dressed.

parel the feat was greeted with loud
and prolonged applause San Francisco

Princess Marie of Greeoo.

Princess Marie Of Greece is the prin-
cess whose name has been so frequently
mentioned Of late as bride for the
Russian czarowitz. She is 10 years of
age, belongs to the same religion as
the czarowitz and might make him a
good wife were it not for the fact that
she happens to be his first cousin, her
father, King George, being brother of
the czarina. And there is nothing which
the canons of the Greek church more
strictly prohibit than matrimonial un-
ions between first cousins. The young
princess is round faced and plump of
figure, not particularly pretty, but hay
ing the vivacity and fresh coloring of
early girlhood. Exchange.
