eIRoN AS A MONK.
Frenchman Who EIored With the
Princess to Don Cloak and CoWl.

Princess to Don CLOAK ana SoW.
Rome. March 2O.-Ths picture of M.
Andre Giron, who eioped with the
Princess Louise, in the cowl and cloak
of monk is one that not even the
most fantastic writer of fiction mas
dared to draw, but which, nevertheless.
probably soon will be presented to the
world.
The father superior of the Order OF
Trappists has announced to the pope
that Giron has entered the Trapplst
community. Strenuous efforts are be-
ing made to keep this information Sc
oret, but it has become known, and the
authority upon which it is given can
hardly be disputed
The question which now is most ca
gerly discussed by those who have
heard the information Is: why did
he do it?' Various reasons are as
signed. The explanation most gener-
ally accepted is this: The former tu-
tor had pledged his word to the princess
to marry her Immediately after her ac-
couchnent. Subsequent to this prom
ise, the Saxon court paid him a con-
siderable amount of money to desert
the princess. one particular stipulation
being that he should never marry her.
His yearning for notoriety. which the
elopement gave him, being largely graf
ified, his cupidity was easily worked
upon and he readily bartered away the
pledge he had made the woman.
The princess, suspecting that he was
about to desert her, had importuned
him with such persistcacy personally
and thru others that he was compelled
to seek some avenue of escape that
would protect him from her and at the
same time leave him free from the
gibes and sneers of the world which
would have followed such desert1on.
He saw his opportunity in becoming
a. monk, under the garb of which he is
safe from matrimony, and can be so Sc
auestered as to be fraa from further
communications from the princess.
Another story is that The young no.
b,lity of Saxony threatened to take his
life unless he retired from the view OF
the world by burying himself In the
obscurity of a monastery
1t is predicted that he Will break MS
monks vows and go out :nto the world
again when the present complications
have blown over, and Andre Giron may
yet be seen in Paris spending the money
which he drew from tie Saxon court.

nothing to add to what was already
