than the preceding one, until at last
wounded love, threw the ring in the
face of the imperial representation.
In the meantime the crown prince was
closely confined to his room, and his
uncle, Prince Henry of Prussia, was
sent to represent Emperor William at
the coronation of King Edward.
In England very little attention is
paid to the sensational stories of the
Matin, because Frederick Williams
partially for American girls is we'll
known. Last summer, when he visited
London as the guest of the duke OF
Connaught, he met many Americans
at the Carlton hotel. A week later he
was entertained at Blenheim, where he
was given further opportunity of Gull
tivating the acquaintance of several
captivating Americans. His name,
however, was not mentioned in connec-
ton with that of any special young
woman until information reached Lon
don that he was an admirer of Geral-
dine Farrar, a Massachusetts girl who
made a brilliant success at the Berlin
Royal opera last winter. 1t was al
legged in English society circles also
that the emperor refused to allow his
son to go to luncheon on the American
yachts during the recent races at Kiel,
fearing he might fall a victim to the
graces of some American beauty.
Another report has it that the crown
| princes love affair, which aroused his
fathers ire, concerned German and
not an American girl. This latest fam
cy of the Prussian Romeo is said to be
a Miss Schuckert, daughter of a
wealthy electrical manufactures at
Nuremberg, who attends seminary
at Bonn. The prince liked her and paid
her considerable attention, but the

where Gladys Deacon was visiting.
The young Hohenzollern protracted
his visit unduly, led the cotillon every
night with the pretty American and
returned only when peremptorily or
dered by his father. Last spring the
prince got permission to visit Lucerne,
in Switzerland, for three days, which
he extended to ten days because he
met Miss Deacon there.
According to the Matin the crown
prince at that time proposed NOR
gapatic marriage, but Miss Deacon
spurned the suggestion and informed
him that if he desired to marry her
religious and civil ceremony would be
necessary. Three days after her ulti-
matum, it is further reported, Fred
erick William gave her a ring which
he had sworn never to give to any wom-.
an except his wife. About this time
the emperor heard of the entangle-
ment, and violent scenes took place be-
tween father and son. Being cruelty
reprored by the emperor for his dis
obedience and lack of common sense,
the prince threatened to do as did the
Austrian archduke, who took the name
of John Ortiz and renowned his rights
to the throne for the woman he loved.
The prince said he would rather have
the heart and hand of the American
beauty than the throne of the German
empire.
Emperor William, viewing the affair
in different light, sent messenger
to Miss Deacon, demanding the return
OF the. ring given to her by the
crown prince and saying that
the ring was not the property
of the prince, but was gift
of the late Empress Frederick to the
German nation. Miss Deacon, backed
by the duchess of Marlborough, indig-
nantly refused to part with the pre-
cious love token. Messenger succeeded

each more diplomatic in his manner

daughters of the late Edwin Parker
Deacon, of Boston, Mass. Mr.. Deacon,
on February II, 1892, shot and killed
Edward Abeille, Frenchman, at
Cannes, France. Abeille was wealthy
clubman, whom he suspected OF being
intimate with Mrs. Deacon. Deacon
was convicted and sentenced toa yearin
prison, but was pardoned by President
Sadi-Carnot in September of the same
year. Divorce proceedings followed
and the children were divided, Mrs.
Deacon being given the custody of two
and her husband of the other two.
Gladys Parker is the second dangh-
ter of the Deacon family. She is 70
wears old, tall and has a slender and
graceful figure. Her features and
head are pronounced absolutely be-
yond criticism by the artistic brother
hood, even when judged by the sever
est examples of classic beauty. Her
eyes are large and of deep gray and
are tnged with violet, while her eye
brows are arched, delicately penciled,
and several shades darker than her
hair, which is of the purest and deep
est golden. She speaks French and
German auently. Her debut was at
the Vanderbilt Marlborough wedding,
| at WHICH she was bridesmaid. She is
close friend of the young duchess of
Marlborough, who was Consuelp Van
| derbilt.
The German crown prince was born
| in 1882. Like all other scions of the
house of Hohenzollern. his education
has been thorough and he is at present
enrolled as student of the university
of Bonn. The prince and Miss Gladys
met for the first time at Blenheim,
the famous country seat of the MARI
boroughs, on the occasion of his high
ness visit to his granduncle, the king
| of Great Britain Both prince and
| fair commoner are of the same age;
and, according to the Paris newspa-
per, it was a case of reciprocal love
at first sight. The emperor had asked
the king to. see that the prince got an
insight into the country life of the
English aristocracy, and the king SCI
cured him an invitation to Blenheim,

emperorFs objection even to platonic
friendship induced the prince to break
off the acquaintance about six weeks
ago
The fact of the matter seems to DO
that young Frederick William is q
chap whose amatory tendencies are
developed in an extra ordinary degree.
He falls in love on the slightest provo
cation and, like all young persons of
similar disposition, communicates his
hopes to the object of his affection
with a fervency that might be easily
misunderstood. Nevertheless it may
be taken for granted that when, in the
Judgment of the emperor, the time for
choosing bride arrives he will make
selection pleasing to his family and
the German people. :,
It has been stated in authoritative
circles that the young woman most
fayorably considered in this connee=
ton is Princess Alice of Albany. Prias
cess Alice is a pretty girl, just 10
years of age and full of spirits. She
is the elder of the two children of the
duke of Albany, who was Queen VicS
toria's youngest son and died in 1884,
after long illness. He left his family.
in what might be called "straitenedl
circumstances"- royal incomes go,
his widow and her two children be-,
ing compelled to get along on an an.
uual pension of $4,000, which amount
was doubled by the personal income
of the mother, who was a Russian
grand duchess before her marriage,
Things looked uncomfortable for the
Albanys until two years ago when,
through the decision of the duke of
Connanght to renounce for himself
and his son all claims to the throne Of
Saxe-C oburg- otha, young Leopold of
/ Albany succeeded to the sovereignty
of that principality. The revenues of
the, grand duchy are immense, and as
Leopold will be reigning grand duke il
two years-when he shall have at
tanned his majority-the future of his
family may be said to be assured, and
his pretty sister will be lowered as
rbecomes princess of her rank.
The French story makes interesting
reading, however; and as o one is par
ticularly harmed by its repetition it
will do very we'll as topic for society
conversation. To look upon it in any
other way would be absurd, because in
spite of the advancement of democrat
is ideas boys dreams and girls fancies
are not yet permitted to interfere

Tariff Protected.

Anthracite coal is on the free list,

tanning less Than 90 pc, aentum of

pounds to the bushel."
January II, 1898 the department
made a ruling that the tariff of 81 cts.
ton applies to all the so called an
thracite coal that fall below the per
cent fixed iu the statute.
Very little coal in the anthracite
region tests up to the standard and
none of the coal of any other country,
hence it is all under our law bitumin-
Gus. The attempt to import hard
coal frora Wales has brought H. light
the fact that the coal trust is shelter
ed behind the Dingley tariff.
| The Standard oil is also protected
by the Dingley tariff which provides
that eff there be imported into the
United States crude petroleum or the
products of crude petroleum produced
in any county which imposes a duty
on petroleum or its products exported
from the United States, there shall,
in such cases, be levied, paid and col

company has that protection on all Of

Reports have reached Madrid from
Seville that the district of Ossuna
has been invaded by tarantulas. They
aTe found in great numbers not only
in the fields, but also in the dwell

bitten by them.
The bites produce an intense state
of nervous excitation, and the per-
sons bitten seem to be on wires, so
rapid are their movements.
In accordance with ancient custom,
the patients are further melted to
dance by the playing of guitars.
They dance on wildly till they fall,
spent with fatigue. Then they are
put to bed and "sweat out the poi
son."
The municipality of Ossuna have
engaged numerous guitar players III
order to play to the patients.

Sorter Growsin Favor.

Nearly two months have passed
since the nomination of Capt. A. L.
Sortor of Mason City for congress of
this fourth district. His candidacy is
growing in favor daily, as the people
of the district become acquainted
with the man, and results Of work for
this district he has accomplished.
Since this nomination, not an I'M
kind word or report has been made by
any of the republican papers published
In his home city. To the contrary,
several Of them have given him com.
plimentary notices and credit for work
done, all of which he has merited, and
is as it should be.
Absence of the party lash, and based
strictly upon knowledge of the real
worth and capacity of both candidates
lMr. Haugen living in an adjoining
county, and being we'll known in this
community, it should be significant
fact for the consideration Of the peo-
pie of this district, that Cerro Gordo
county, which is usually in the repub.
Ecan columns with about two thou
sand majority, expects, this year, to
give Capt. Sortor the majority vote.
Born in the little town of Rockwell
one of Mr.. Haugen's postmasters, who
edits newspaper, and is sorely dis
tressed over the situation, sends up
the following howl and lamentation
IT'S there no voice in Mason City, to
be raised against such party outrage?
Is the republican press struck dumb?
Is the arm Of the party organization
paralyzed? Are we to sit idly by and
encourage by utter Indifference, the
lack of party discipline?"
We contend that there are times
when men must emphatically assert
their independence and rise above
party prejudices. Capt. Sortor agrees
with the Iowa republicans on the
tariff plank, and is sound on every
issue which is under discussion.
II Mr., Haugen says Henderson is
right in his contention, relative to the
Iowa platform, why does he notresign
as did Henderson? If Mr.. Haugen,
with four years experience in Con-
gress cannot and will not meet Mr..
Sortor in joint discussion of public
questions. and we know Mr.. Sortor by
his words and MIR. Haugen by his lack
of results, why not give Capt. Sortol
two years trial.-Mason City Star.
