German Crown Prince
Nav Wed an American

Paris, Aug. 14-Frederick Wilhelm,
crown prince of Germany, LIE Matln
says he has promised to marry an
American girl, Miss Marie Gladys
Deacon, daughter of the late Edward
Deacon. LIE Matin publishes a story
to the effect that the prince had re-
Gently quarreled violently with his
father, the emperor, and had expressed
a desire to renOunce his rank and for
felt his claim to the throne in order
to marry for love. Now the paper
names the young American girl as the
object of the princes affection and
adds that Miss Deacon told the prince
that she would never consent to mar
ry him unless by full religious and
legal ceremony. She would not con-
sent to a morganatic alliance.
Two days after this, it is said the
crown prince presented to the
young woman a ring which was given
to him by his grand mother, the late
Empress Frederick and which the
prince swore he would give to no one
but his wife.
Miss Deacon is the eldest daughter
of the late Edward Parker Deacon of
New York Mrs. Deacon is the
daughter of the late Admiral Charles
H. Baldwin, U. S. NJ, and in 1879,

HELD TO THE JURY
BUT OUT ON BOND

Chicago, Aug. lathe coroner's
jury in the matter of the death of
Walter A Scott recommended that
Stebbings be held to the grand jury.
No charge of crime was made against
Seedlings, but the jury recommended
that the grand jury investigate the
killing. Seedlings testified in his
own behalf at the inquest and stated
that at no time during the time Scott
was striking and kicking him did he
knowingly stab him. The verdict is
said to be the mildest in the history
of the coroner's Office.
Seedlings was released last night
on bonds of $4,000. In view of the
fact that the grand jury will not con-
vene before Sept. Is, the verdict at
the inquest, while holding the prison
err to answer to the criminal court,
recommended that he be released on
bond

are engaged constructing fiat-bottom
boat with which they expect to make a
long tour. They are planning to have
the boat shipped to Central America
and at the mouth of the San Juan
river it will be put together and the
trio will then make their way up the
stream. John Fidlin is one of the
taxidermists of the Milwaukee public

enough specimens to defray his ex-
penses on the trip. He has visited
that section of the country before and
will know where to seek for his speci-

Minneapolis, Aug. 14.-LOuis H.
Ayme is visiting relatives IN Mime
apolis. Mr. Ayme is best known for
his newspaper correspondence and for
his services last May as representa-
tive of the American government in
relieving sufferers from the Mont
Pelee eruption at st. Pierre, Marti-
nique.
At the time of the Martinique dis
aster, Mr.. Ayme was consul at Guada-
loupe and he still retains that post.
But he is unwilling to return to that
post. He hopes to be made consul
general at Havana to succeed General
E. S. Bragg.
mo destruction of like magnitude,
said Mr.. Ayme at the home OF his
sister, Mrs. James Smith, was ever
accomplished more thoroughly. Two
minutes after the fire came down
from Pelee, the town of st. Pierre
might as we'll have never existed
Pompeii itself was not more absolute
1y thing of the past, save for the
grief of far-off friends and relatives OF
the former inhabitants. There was no
structure left to restore, no human
survivor to relieve. AS if to emphasize
their humiliation, the Attila of noun
tains encased it's victims in yellow
varnish-like coating of ashes, buried
and embalmed them as they fell. Ig-
norant of the fact that I was walk
ing over the bodies, [ went about
looking in vain for sight of the dead
thousands.
There were survivors, of course
in other parts of the island-that is,
survivors, so called. But they had not
been injured in the least, and only a
few of them had lost property. They
were hardly more survivors than the
ungcathed residents of the neighbor-
ing islands. Thus my greatest task
was to stem the Amazonian generosi
ty that brought to Martinique food
and clothing needed far more by the
poor of less fertile, less prosperous
lands"
In sending to the Associated Press
the complete account of the disaster
Mr. Ayme transmitted a cablegram

NEleHBoR OF JOHN c. CALHOUN.
Woman's Memories of Her Childhood
in South Carolina.

in South Carolina.
Greenfield, Mass, August 14.-Mrs.
Nancy Hoyt Dickinson-Campbell, who
is passing a serene old age on Pine
Hill. lust below Greenfield, is daugh-
ter of the late Rev. Rodolphus DICK
inson, and is in her 87th year. She
was born at Greenfield in what is now
the Newton place. Rev. Rodolphus
Dickinson was a Yale graduate and the
first clerk of courts in Greenfield. Be-
coming tired of the law, he studied IOr
the ministry and took orders in the
Episcopal church, and became rector
of St. Pauls church in Pendleton, >.
G.. John c.. Calhoun, the Pinckneys
and Rutledges were parishioners OF
his. Mr.. Calhoun he married, rece1v-
ing a fee of $50. Mrs. Campbell as a
child played with the children OF the
Calhoun, Pinckney and Rutledge taml-
lies. One childish sport was to drive
lizards after they had been tied to-
gether by the negro saves. Mrs.
Campbell remembers Mr.. Calhoun as
large planter and good neighbor.
She tells of her uncle, David Dlck1n-
son, a lawyer of Augusta, Ga, having a
race horse which he loaned to her
father to ride to church one Sunday,
and of the merriment that arose from
the rector's having become sporty
When Mrs. Campbell was 16 her
father came north, and settled in Deer
field preaching in what was at that
time the Episcopal church in Mon
tague After retiring from the min
istry he settled on Pine Hill and built
the house in which the family now
| lives. He was an author and his
works are now in the Boston athen-
cum In the family archives is letter
| from Thomas Jefferson for whom Mr..
| Dickinson had great admiration, in re-
ply to a letter Mr.. Dickinson had
written with reference to translation
of the New Testament, which he sub
sequently published. Consider Dickin-
son, founder of the Dickinson high
school at Deerfeld, was uncle to Rev.
Rodolphus. His father Col. Thomas
Wells Dickinson of Deerfeld was a
commissary in the war of the Revolu-
ton, and in that capacity did good
service in the patriots cause.
1t is an interesting fact that Bene-
dict Arnold, whose name is now ex-
ecrated, visited Col Dickinson at
Deerfield and persuaded him to go to
Hartford, where he received his com

Deacon at the Mclean asylum a little
more than a year ago Mrs. Deacon has
had little to do with Boston, and the
friends of the family know little OF
the love affair between Gladys and the
prince. Miss Gladys has several times
been reported to be engaged In 1871
London rumor said that when Lord
Francis Hope became freed by dl-
vorce from May Yohe, the actress,
he would seek her hand. Miss Deacon
was once reported to be engaged to
Claude Lowther, the handsomest man
in England. Paris looked on her as
being engaged to the prince of Lich-
tenstein, who first paid attention to
her mother, but this proved untrue.
The young woman is tall and OF
classic Greek type. Her figure is
slender and graceful, with shoulders
and bust of exquisite molding. The
contour of her throat, features and
head is pronounced beyond criticism
by the artistic brotherhood even when
judged by the severest examples of
classic beauty. She speaks English
with a slight foreign accent. She made
her debut in the United States at the
wedding of Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt
and the duke of Marlborough, when
she was a bridesmaid Miss Deacon
made her social debut in London,
where, despite the wretched scandal
accompanying the tragedy in Paris
when her father Edward Parker
Deacon, who afterward died in mad
house, killed M. Abeille and left his
wife forever, the sweetness and beauty
of the slender girl triumphed and she
was taken up by the smartest of the
social leaders. She made her London
debut under the chaperonage of Mrs.
Arthur Paget. The men raved about
her and her prestige became so great
that last season no luncheon party in
the exclusive circle was considered
complete unless she was present. The
Deacons lived for years in Boston, but
in 1870 Edward Parker Deacon moved
to Paris, where he lived until the
tragedy of the night of Feb. II, 1892,
which separated him from his wife and
was the precursor of his physical

London, Aug. 13.-One of Crown
Prince Frederick Williams former in
Inmates at the University of Bonn is
now guest at London hotel. He
denies that the kaiser's son wishes to
marry Gladys Deacon. In proof OF
his assertion he said: ct have just
had letter from his highness saying
that his little love affair was settled
six weeks and that it concerned not
an American but German girl
This latest fancy of the prince is a
Miss Schuckert, daughter Of a wealthy
electrical manufacturer of Nurnberg
who attends a seminary at Bonn
The prince liked her and paid her con
siderable attention, but his imperial
fathers objection even to a platonic
friendship induced the prince to break
off the acquaintance. | have heard his
highness express admiration of the
charms of American girls in general
| but have never known that he was
9namored of any particular one"

PEOPLE OF PROMINENCE

Winston Churchill is following his
literary cOnfrere, Booth Harrington,
into politics. Both will run for cleo
ton to the legislatures of their re-
spective states-New Hampshire and
Indiana-in the November election.
Nine. Janauschek, who was stricken
with paralysis three years ago, is
critically i'll in a boarding house at
Saratoga, N. Y, where she was taken
in 1899 from her home in Brooklyn,
and her friends have small hopes of a
rally from the latest attack. The
once queen of tragedy" is now 72
years old. 1t is fifty-two years since
she made her debut in Germany as
Iphigenia. Born in Bohemia and edu-
Gated in Germany, where she won her
first triumphs, Nine. Janauschek
turned next to Russia, where she made
distinguished success, and at Mos
COW played before the emperor him
SELF who presented her with valuable
diamonds She was 81 years old be
fore she thought of learning English
and coming to this country, which
since 1867 has practically been her
home. For the first four years of her
stay in this country she played in
German, and then, at the age of Al,
she seriously began the study of the
English language with the idea of
making her home here. In 1874 she
made tour of England and Germany
which added to her laurels, return
ing later to the United States. In
private life Nine. Janauschek is known
as Mrs. Frederick Pilot.
