SECRET MISSION.
Made a Flying Trip West with a
Beautiful Young Woman.
The Detective Had Just Returned
from Il European Voyage.

The mysterious European trip made
by Detective-Sergt. Frank N. Evanhoe,
of Inspector McLaughlin's staff OF de-
tectives. about five weeks ago. Is still a
matter OF he closetst secrecy at Head
quarters. The detective. however. re-
ported for duty to his superior officer
yesterday morning.
a story Of n highly sensational make

CANA, OF the Cunard line. "incog.'
leaked out at Police Headquarters to-
day.
While he had only been granted n leave
of absence Of thirty days, he was of
duty much longer and made a myster-
ious Western journey Immediately on re-
turning. in he company of an extremely
handsome and dashing young woman
whose identity is not yet known.
Evanhoe's first appearance in this city
since he left for Europe was March A.
A man who is well acquainted with him
was in waiting at the Grand Central
Depot to see Boss Mckane off to Sing
Sing. 1t was close on to 30 =. NJ. and
the Chicago Fast Mail was about tc
drew out of the depot on its Western
trip.
A hanson cab containing a lady and
gentleman and n trunk slowed away by
the driver, dashed up to the depot. Out
jumped the man, who drew his coat
collar about his ears and his hat down
over his eyes as If to avoid detection
He was Detective Frank Evanhoe.
He escorted n pretty, blonde young
woman, who was exqulsitely attired
into the depot. and II rush was ther
made for the Chicago train. 1t pulled
out in II moment, bearing away Detec.
tive Evanhoe and his fair companion.
That was the last seen Of him until
yesterday. Evanhoe, when approached
to-day. declined to give an explanation
further than to ny that he had beer
sent on n secret diplomatic mission. II
was supposed that he had gone tC
Europe to visit friends there. but his
brief s~ojourn across the water precludes
that idea.
The Interesting problem is. Who was
the detectives beautiful young com.
panion?
She may have been a prisoner from
some Western city. but certainly no
from here, else there would have beer
court proceedings. in which the fact,
would ave been disclosed.
1t was suggested to Evanhoe that 4
was a case of elopement. and tina
he had been sent by other authorize,
than Supt. Byrnes or Inspector Nc
LauEhlin. but with the sanction of boil
fair eloper. but this query found no sat
isfactory reply. Evanhoe simply said

The six little princes of Germany are
all great athletes. They go through ex-
erclses which are calculated to develop.
and strengthen the muscles and do
everything to make them grow into
strong men and fine soldiers-which Is
their fathers greatest ambition for
them. The Crown Prince is a slim,
blond boy Of twelve, who has already
entered the army and has his first de-
gree. The youngest boy is five years
old, and is the handsomest Of the royal
princes. His name is Oscar. Freder-
lex, the second Prince, who was named
for his much-beloved grandfather, Ia
also a fine-looking boy. The Crown
Prince Wilhelm is the p~lainest and most
celicate-looking of the royal children.
The young princes all ride, skate. dance
and win well, n so far nave occu-
pied very few hours Of their days in
the school-room. They are all rather
musical. and are ve~y fond of having
school-roon theatricals, as we'll as Wis

teriously at her moorings in the slip at

neld, they, boarded the tugboat Eve,
went to New York This was the tug
that was to take the boat out. Their

The police authorities think this &C.
ton of theirs very singular, and that It
looks as II there was something con
ngcted with the disaster that they dom
wish to disclose, In no other way car
their sudden flight and abandonment OF
the body of their child be accounted for
They seem to have had time to dress
before leaving the sinking craft.
County Physician O'Reilly and the
police authorities will make a searchinl
investigation, and efforts will be mad,
To secure the fugitives and have then
returned 10 this city for examination.
