CHOOSES A HUSBAND.
WilheImina Selects Duke Henry of
 Mecklenburg-Sch
of the Royal Be- trothaI Cheered by the Members of The Netherlands Parliament
 -Cabinet Opposed Match.

The announcement of the betrothal of Queen Wilhelmina to Duke Henry of Mecklenburg-Sch in the sec ond chamber of The Netherlands par liament the other day was greeted with cheers. The house charged the president to transmit to the queen its congratulations and thanks for com municating the glad event, which was of the highest importance to the dynasty and country.
 The announcement has been sym pathetically received by the whole German press,. although nearly all the papers point out that the event is de- void of political significance. Atten- tion, however, is called to the fact that her choice cannot fail to strengthen the ties of friendship be- tween the two countries. Mention is made of the close relations of lan- guage, race and literature and of the fact that the queens mother was born in Germany.
 It is learned from a reliable source that her choice is her own and against the wishes of the Dutch cabinet, who desired her to wait for another year or two until her judgment was more mature. She took the matter into her own hands. When she visited Potsdam year ago everybody ex- pected that her choice would be Prince Joachim Albrecht of Prussia, who paid court to her assiduously and rescued her and the queen mother from a serious accident while they were driving in the Sans Souci park. At that time she seemed to be seri- ously smitten, the prince being tall, good looking and amiable; but it is understood that she yielded to the strong objections of the Dutch cab inet, who urged that an alliance with Prussian prince might bring poht- ical entanglements.
 The young duke is in habits and manner typical German officer. He has travelled to India and North Cape. Recently he has been much in evi- dence in Berlin and Potsdam and in court, military and diplomatic socie- ety, where he is appreciated as an indefatigible dancer. He is also a fine equestrian. His brother, Duke Adolf Friedrich, is noted steeplechaser.
