TniI breaking Is curiously frequent

JAN breaking is curiously frequent
Just now. illustrating the tendency OF
events apparently unrelated to run In
sequences. 1t can hardly be supposed
that prison wardcns have suddenly
grown careless. or that convicts have
suddenly found confinement les, easily
endurable than Il was I'm other years.
Probably the truth Is that the inhab.

to unite against the guards whom they

In most convicts. but whenever. as In

restaurant at every meal to make the little
bow which the proprietor in every eating
house in Germany considers he owes to his
patrons. The hotel cost more money than
Ii produced and within two months it's
doors was closed and the princess disap-
peared from Germany.
On Aug. 10 1t was announced by the
courts of Stuttgart that the debts OF the
Princess Alexandra, of Isenburg, amounted
to SIS, 100000, and that, so far as the cred
itors could ascertain there was absolutely
no seizable property to compensate them
for their heavy losses. 1t was alleged that
one usurer had committed suicide when he
had discovered that he had lent money on
bad security, and other sad stories of the
distress caused by the princess's failure to
pay her dues were related. Subsequently a
warrant was issued authorizing the arrest
of Princess Alexandra on a charge of OBJ
tanning money by false pretenses and of
contracting debts while knowing that she
had no chance of repaying them.
Princess Alexandra. descendant OF the
famous knight of the tenth century, is
now reduced to keeping lodging house at
a continental watering place. She is en-
deavoring to earn a living by honest
means and hopes to be able to reform her
wa s. She does much of the homework
herself and spares no effort to make the
establishment a success.
HER AUSTRIAN CONFRERE.
Although his rank Is not so high as that
OF the princess, there are striking points
of resemblance to her story in the career
of Baron Franz Josef Won Lerchenfeld,
who was sentenced in Vienna few days
ago to fifteen months Imprisonment and
loss of title for contracting debts which
he knew he couldn't pay. There is no
doubt about the mans pedigree. He comes
from one of the proudest of old Bavarian
families; he is a godson of Emperor
Francis Joseph, and his mother was a
playmate of the murdered Empress Eliza
beth. He inherited a goodly fortune and
lived for time in the palace of the
Archduke Ludwig Victor, trying to keep
the pace set by the average Austrian arch
duke--the swiftest pace in all Europe.
After wasting all of his fortune and bor-
rowing all that his aristocratic friends
would lend and squeezing all he could out
of the money-lenders, he reached the point
where he was willing to fraternize with
a hotel porter for the sake Of dollar
loan. 1t was stated at his trial that he
had inveigled $4,000 out of poor folk on
the strength OF his title.
