Especial Letter.)

According to current reports the
British and German empires will in
the course Of time be more closely
united than ever in the marriage of
the German Crown Prince Frederick
William and Princess Margaret Vic
tor1a OF Connaught The young couple
are cousins, the crown prince being
q great-grandson of the late Queen
Victoria and the princess a grand
daughter. the child of Victoria's fourth
son. Prince Arthur of Connaught.
The rumored engagement is the Gull
mfnation of one of the late Queens
cherished hopes. She was always very
fond of her dainty little grandchild,
Princess Margaret, and admired the
sterling qualities of her great-grand
son, the German crown prince. In
their eventual union she saw happi-
ness for both and stronger ties of
friendship between the two empires.
1t is stated that before her final ill
ness she introduced the subject to the
princess, but that little lady fatty re-
fused to entertain any such ideas, de-
claring that she would marry for love
only and not for state reasons. The
gentle Queen did not press the matter,
but in her diplomatic way dropped the
subject and kept a watchful eye on
the princess.
Now a pathetic and slightly roman
tic feature entered into this royal en-
gagement. Queen Victoria was strick-
en- with a fatal illness and Kaiser
William, her grandson, fastened to
her side. A few days later his son
came In the chamber of death the
crown prince and Princess Margaret
met for the first time. Their mutual
grief over the loss Of a loved grand
parent established a certain bond of
sympathy between the two. The prin-
cess soon learned that she could COM
ply with the wishes of her late royal
grandmother and at the same time
marry the man she loved. Thus in
her death Victoria brought about the
engagement which she hoped to eff
feet during her life.
Although the marriage will be the
result OF mutual love. it will also be
