ONE WEDDING ROMANCE.
Remarkable Reticenee of the Ameri-
can Bride Who Is of Royal
Linenge.


There is woman living at Brook
line. Mass, who is entitled to emil
nence because of her reticence-an
extraordinary thing for one OF her
sex. She is of high royal lineage, but
none Of her friends discovered the
fact until accident revealed it. She
is Mrs. Anna Perkins Slade, and Is the
niece Of the dowager queen of Por-
tugal. 1t was only the other day
when she walked to the altar in
wedding gown OF such superb jeweled
embroidery as only converts OF the
old world can produce that the story
of her relationship to a spouse OF
royalty became known. She had to
explain the wedding dress. 1t had
been sent to her by her aunt, Elise,
countess of Eola, and dowager queen
of Portugal.
Anna Sade might have gone to Lis
bon had she pleased and been pre-
sented in the court of Portugal, a pos
sible bride for a nobleman in that
proud little decadent old kingdom.
But foreign titles had no charm for
the little American girl, says the
Washington Times She had already
met a nobleman whose title to a
glorious heritage consisted of poll
tax receipt and place on the voting
list of Brookline, Mass.
Elise, queen of Portugal, is the only
American woman who ever was
crowned in Europe; She was born
Elise Hensler, in Boston-her father
a poor Hebrew workman in that trade
of which it is said that it takes nine of
them to make a man. He had tiny
shop in a back street, and made a
speciality of the garments that were,
in those days, held down by straps
under the shoes. Elise assisted.
She had marvellous voice and mar
velous beauty. At 16 she sang for the
first time in public at Springfield
The devoted fathers savings sent hex
to Milan to study, and at 10 she was
singing in ia Scala" Then back to
the triumphs in New York and over
again for an opera tour of Europe.
Fernando, king of Portugal, sat in
the royal box at Lisbon. Some time
after this and in less public place
he fell on his knees and prayed that
she be his bride. And when grandet
of Portugal wooes it is not done in 6
style that leaves any suspicion of half
heartedness-or any question as t.
the outcome.
The duke of saxe-Coburg, the king
brother, obligingly made the Amer
| lean girl Countess Of Eola, so that he,
roval rank and that of the roya
suitor might be more of an equality
There was a marriage. Fernando
though crowned king. had merel,
been taken by the queen of Portugal
through whom the succession came
as her consort, as Victoria mGrrie

The son Of that union was on tn
