BERLIN Dec .2.-The royalty and aris-
tocracy Of Germany and Austria. in
deed, OF all Europe, are amazed to learn
that the Crown Princess of Saxony deserted
her husband and family on the night OF
Dec. II, renowned her prospective right
to share the throne with her husband.
and fed to an unknown destination This
much is officially admitted, but many
stories are current respecting the circum-
stances of the flight.
The Crown Princess was staying at Salz-
burg, her husband being in Dresden where
he Is convalescing from a severe hunting
accident. That her flight was premedi-
ta'ed Is manifest from the following pas
sage in letter which the Princess left:
Il renounce all rights due me through
my relationship TO Frederick Augustus,
Crown Prince Of Saxony"
The Princess was apparently accompanied
in her flight by one of her brothers. either
Archduke Joseph or Leopold, who, it is
stated, are championing her action II is
believed that she is now in Switzerland or
Paris.
One story mentions the Princess in con-
nection with an illicit love affair." in conse-
quence Of which. it il said, a certain high
Official was recently banshed from the
court. Another story ascribes the flight
to morbid mental excitement that il at
tributable to pregnancy.
The marital relations of the Crown Prince
and his wife have long been the subject
OF unpleasant gossip. 1t is alleged that
they were constantly quarrelling. A tragic
termination Of the union has been often
predicted, but opinion is divided as to
whether the husband or wife was chief !,
to blame.
1t Ia now expected that formal separa-
ton will be arranged, but divorce in any
case is impossible, az both are Catholics.
The Crown Prince has not the best of
regulations. The Princess was noted in
Dresden for her extreme democracy She
shopped unattended, rode in street cars,
and was generally fond of sharing the life
Of the people. She has three sons and two
daughters. the last one born year ago.
The Crown Prince Of Saxony, Prince
Frederick Augustus. Is q nephew Of the
reigning King. He was born In Dresden
on May IS. 1855. and married Louise, Prin-
cess Imperial and Archduchess OF Austria,
at Vienna on Nov. 81, 1881.

WON'T SIT WITH COLORED GIRL
Why Five Young women Threaten to Leave
q Brooklyn Sunday school.

nrOOhlyn Sunuuy SCHOOi
Five girls, members Of class in the
Sunday school Of the Emmanuel Baptist
Church. Lafayette avenue and St, James

Washington avenue, and told her that
they would not attend the school II a GER
tain colored girl was not taken from their
class.
We do not wish to hurt the feelings Of
the GIRL said one OF them, but We think
that our feelings have not received great
amount Of consideration. There IA place
for her around in the Emmanuel House.
where she will not disturb any one. We
have grown up in the school and formed
the class ourselves and It would be a shame
to dsband 1t, but.
With significant pause the young woman
shrugged her shoulders and remarked
that she had no more to say on the subject.
The colored girl was admitted to the
Sunday school two weeks ago. She was
assigned to a class Of nine young women
taught by Miss Thompson. The other
girls are residents Of the Hill section Of
Brooklyn and most Of them are students In
Adelphi College. They protested to their
teacher.
Miss Thompson said yesterday that she
was sorry to zee such spirit among the
members Of her class.
we are glad to have the girl In the
school, she added. There Is nothing OBJ
jectionable about her.
Mrs Page, the assistant superintendent,
said The girls did come to me and ask
that the colored girl be transferred. but
she shall not leave the school, That ia
certain. Mr.. Bedford, the superintendent.
and the officers and teachers Of the school
will stand by her."

John Bottomley, general manager Of the
Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company
has received this message from Signor
Marconi.
am glad to confirm the ann ouncement OF
the successful establishment of wireless tele.
graph communication between the stations at
Cape Breton and Cornwall q. Maroon
Upon the receipt of the message Mr..
Bottomley Immediately telegraphed his
congratulations.
Il was not at all surprised to get the
news Of Signor Marconi's success" he
said. I'm fact, I've been expecting daily
To hear the announcement ever since Mar

left here he said to me: We will nave es
tablished wireless communication across
the Atlantic before the end Of the year
and all Of us felt sure that it would he only

1t was just like Signor Marconi not
even to intimate later that he was approach

pertinent. He is very modest, and IL he
can help it, never says anything about his
work until he Is in position to verify his
statements by actual results"

Mr.. Bottomley thinks that the completion
Of his work at Cape Breton will bring to
the inventor welcome release from a
severe strain Referring to the plans Of
the Marconi company, the manager said:
I'VE will begin active preparations at
once to perfect the wireless system and
put II on a basis that will make it fit for
practical public uses. The first step will
be the completion Of the station at Cape
Cod. That, expect, will be accomplished
fnr nj mr. i oan
say anything further, as nothing definite
will be done until Signor Marconi gets
here"
The inventor will. Mr.. Bottomley thought.
come to New York in few days. He was
enthusiastic over the possibilities Of the
wireless system. II will, he said, be much
less expensive than the present cable sys-
TEN, and he thought that before long the
system would be developed overland as
well AZ over sea, although for the present
the Marconi company has arranged with
the inland telegraph companies for the
transmission Of messages.

LONDON, Dec. 22.-Officials Of the Mar

that they are practically ready to accept
public transatlantic messages, but are
unable a. yet to announce the exact date
when such messages will be accepted
They gay that Cape Breton and Poldhu
have been in communication for eight days
but the work done on the first seven days
was purely experimental, the real be-
ginning being made with the messages
to King Edward and King Victor En-
manuel.
Telegraphic stations will be opened as
soon rs the British Government consents
to the necessary land communicate ions.
Then private messages for America will be-
accepted at 10 cents word The press
rate will lie FIVE cents.
King Edward, in reply to the marconi-
gram received by him from the Earl of
Mimic, Governor-( General of Canada, said:
Il am much interested by the wireless
