A Royal Family
Mystery.

OF many European royal mysteries.
the most interesting and recently re-
vived is that relating to the grand
duchy Of Baden. whose grand duke is
about to assume the title of king. at
the suggestion of Emperor William,
whose grandfather, he, the grand duke,
really made kaiser at Versailles.
The mystery of Baden is so remark
able that at one time all Europe was
involved in the pros and cons of the
case.
1t was during one of his many king
making moods that Napoleon trans
formed the Margrave Charles Louis OF
Baden into a grand duke. incidentally
it may be mentioned that Charles had
been married some time before to
Stephanie Tascher de la Pagerie, niece
of the Empress Josephine and adopted
daughter of the emperor.
Baden. which is now, and was then,
overwhelmingly Protestant, objected
strenuously, but vainly, against
Charles and his French bride, because
of theis Roman Catholicism. SO in
tense did this feeling become that the
aristocracy formed a cabal with the
avowed purpose of changing the order
of succession.
Previous 10 the death of her husband
Stephanie had five children, three girls
vives-the grandmother of the king of
Roumania. The first boy died when 6
months old, and the other is generally
supposed to have been the Inflated
Kaspar Hauser. When the second boy
came into the world the cabal at once
began operations Just who constitut-
ed tire conspiracy is not known, but the
widow of Grand Duke Karl Frederick,
the Countess Hochberg, has been OPEN
ly accused of being the real head of the
IL. rw,sx-
throne for her sOn-in which she sue
ceeded.
The first move of the cabal was to
circulate rumors that the new heir ap-
parent was weakly and not likely to
live more than a few days. In the
meantime the cOnspirators kept a close
watch upon the child, and one day.
during the temporary and as yet un-
explained absence of the nurse, the
really healthy baby of Stephanie was
abducted and dying infant substi-
tuted.
The success of the plot vas noised
about and came to the ears of the
grand duchess, but before a fun in
vestigation could be made the grand
duke died and the court was thrown
into confusion. Before the dying child
could be proclaimed grand duke, its
spirit passed away, and Stephanie was
driven from the country and the Pro-
testant Louis William proclaimed
grand duke.
Time passed and with it came many
changes. The town of Nuremberg had
profited by some years of quiet and
was celebra ting one of its famous an
nual fairs, or Jahrmarkt, Whitsuntide
