GIRL SPURNS SHAH.
Thrilling Adventures Of Emily Barna-
by of Cincinnati.

Emily Barnaby. a Cincinnati girl, has
just arrived in Paris from Tabreez. Per
sia after a most extraordinary adventure.
She was among 4 lot of beauties selected
here two wears ago by the Shah for VA
rious offices at his court, and sent ahead
to Teheran under escort to await his
pleasure.
Miss Barnaby at that time was des-
titute student of music, and had applied
to the recruiting Persian minister upon
the advice of a friend, also an American,
who had already accepted an engagement.
She was duly presented to the Shah,
who gave a short, unintelligible order to
his minister, and the latter told her she
was engaged. She left Paris three days
later with nine other girls; mostly
French, in charge of two old English
women who had been long attached to
the Shah's household. She remained at
Teheran four months before she saw the
sovereign. Then the two American girls

English. Miss Barnabys friend played
the piano and Miss Barnaby sang anc
danced.
The Shah at first languid, soon became

troduced she was dressed in Oriental
GAUGES by the same two English women,
who complimented her on the fact that
the Shah had taken great fancy to her.
At the second interview the Shah tried
to express his fondness too warmly and
Miss Barnaby vigorously objected. When
she finally broke down and cried the
Shah'S anger was notified and he or
dered that she be taken to her apart
ment, afterward sending her a consider
ate message, accompanied with valuable
presents.
Thereafter she saw the Shah almost
says she learned to like the Shah well,
except when a tender fit seized him.
After nearly year the Shah grew ugly
because of the girls steadfast refusal to
become 4 member of the royal haren,
and she. following the advice Of Frencl
physician, ran away from the palace.
She hid in Teheran three days, and then
gused and yelled like an Oriental wonI-
an, to TabreeZ. where she lived secretly
with some kind French nuns.
Four months ago she married n wealthy
Partisan merchant, young, handsome,
and a Catholic convert But the Shah S
emissaries finally locating her, she es-
capped finding the country unsafe. The
young couple joined a Russian caravan,
reached the Black Sea, and sailed from
Batoum for Marseilles aboard Greek
vessel. which stopped at Trebizond.
There her husband went ashore, say
ing he would take just a short stroll
He never returned, and his wife does not
know whether he was murdered or de-
serted her. Being afraid to risk herself
alone in a strange city, she continued
her voyage, and finally reached Paris.
She says she has most of her husbands
wealth. Jewels, quite a cargo of precious
| rugs, and more than s1,0oo,00o in money.
