of grave, serious disposition, while
the grand duchess is gay, vivacious
and fond of plea reseeking.
Husband and wife were estranged,
drifted farther and farther apart
until things happened that made 1t
impossible for them to live together.
In 1901, seven years after the we'd
ding. a divorce was granted on the
ground of mutual antipathy, with the
stipulation that their only child, Prin-
cess Elizabeth, should spend half the
year with her father and half the year
with her mother.
During these seven years of HIS
youth and early manhood. Grand
Duke Cyril had remained true to the
memory of his first love, and after
the divorce had been pronounced he
renewed his attentions to Grand
Duchess Victoria, who took up her
residence at Coburg.
Grand Duke Cyril paid court to the
beautiful Divorce assiduously, and
Grand Duchess Victoria on her side
fell in love with her handsome young
cousin. He spent the greater part of
his time at the little court Of Co
burg and in the company of the d.
vorced grand duchess.
Last autumn they were driving In
a motor car together and Grand Duke
Cyril was SO engrossed in love-mak-
ing that he ran over and killed a
poor peasant on the high road.
1t was about this time that he be-
gan to advance the project of marry
ing the divorced grand duchess, and
he applied to the car. as head of the

REMOVED LOWER JAW

SEATTLE, May 26-The entire
lower Jaw was removed from Louis
Usanza, a cook, at the Seattle general
hospital yesterday noon.
The operation, performed by DR.. F.
b. Whiting. was made necessary from
the fact that necrosis had set in, fol-
lowing the extraction of a tooth by a
local dentist, and the entire jaw was
rotting.
CsanZa stood the operation well,
but has ahead Of him long and tedi-
Gus recovery. Eventually, physicians
md surgeons agree, hard substance
resembling bone will granulate in and
give Csanza a jaw bone.
The operation made it necessary to
cut away the flesh of the entire lower
portion of the face. For the present
Csanza is neither able to eat nor
speak. He will recover speech as soon
as the wounds made by the operation
heal, but must be fed for some time
in an artificial manner.
A number of prominent physicians
witnessed the operation on Usanza.
Necrosis, necessitating the removal of
the jaw, is an extremely rare case,
and the interest of the medical pro-
fession in the man was general The

typhoid fever. Grand Duchess Vic
toria was Frustrated with grief, dis
missed her lover and withdrew into
complete privacy to mourn her loss.
Grand Duke Cyril returned to st.
Petersburg and took part in the
gaieties of the winter season in the
Russian capital. When the war broke
out he rushed back to Coburg and
riage to the grand duchess of Hesse.
If she would consent to become his
wife he said that he would give up all
idea of going to the front, but II she
persisted in her refusal, he would
proceed to the far east and do his
best to get killed. Grand Duchess
Victoria declined to ruin his pros
poets and career by marrying him
and Cyril started out for the war;
The story of his wonderful adven-
ture is now well known. Being a ma
val officer, he was attached to the
flagship Petropavlovsk, and was on
board when the battleship was de-
stroyed by japanese torpedoes. Cyril
was pulled out Of the water more
dead than alive and had to be sent
back to Russia to recover from the
severe nervous shock Nowhere was
the news of his marvellous escape
more joyfully received than in the
ducal palace at Coburg by the lonely
woman who loves him.
Now, it is said, the car, moved
by the devotion of the young people
and the loyalty of the grand duchess,
has consented to the wedding.

imperial family, for formal permis-
sion to make her his wife. The car,
however, refused his assent on vari-
Gus grounds.
The national church Of Russia, the
orthodox Greek church, prohibits the
marriage of divorced persons, so that
the union would be an offense to all
religious believers in Russia. There
were reasons, too, of q personal ma
ture.
The czarina is a sister of the grand
duke of Hesse, so that she would not
like to see her brothers divorced wife
at the Russian court, married to a
Russian grand duke, who stands a
good chance of succeeding to the Rus
sian throne.
Grand Duke Cyril thereupon declar-
ed that he would marry his cousin
without the assent of the car IL he
could not obtain the imperial per-
mission to make her his wife
lie declared that he was willing
to sacrifice his position, his right of
succession to the throne, and his
property in Russia, in order to marry
her. He was ready to face disgrace
and exile for her sake, and he begged
her to consent to an early marriage.
Grand Duchess Victoria, however,
refused to accept these sacrifices, and
with heavy heart told him that
they must separate.
Grand Duke Cyril remained firm
and probably he would have per-
suaded the grand duchess to marry
him in defiance of the car, but for
the sudden death of her little daugh-
ter, Princess Elizabeth of Hesse.

Maryland delegation to the demo-

to be finally decided upon at the open

day. A unique plan will be adopted
in order to help along the so-called

leave the Maryland senator free to
control the delegation and swing its
votes to whomsoever he pleases.
1t is said to be the plan to formally
invite Senator German to make his
own selection for delegates-at-large
In any event he would probably die

that the state convention shall, by
resolution, publicly place the appoint

gold mine. In every nook money,
notes and bonds were discovered, and
on an inventory being made 1t was
found that the miser had left nearly
100000. Nobody was ever seen to
visit the old man, and as there was
no will the authorities are greatly
puzzled as to how to dispose of the

ST. PETERSBURG, May 26.-The
Grand Duke Cyril of Russian. who
was on board the battleship Petro-
pavlovsk when she was blown up be-
fore Port Arthur, is the hero of an
unhappy love story full of strange
features, but which. according to UNI
official rumor, is to terminate happily.
When a boy of IS, he fell in love
with his first cousin, Princess Vic
toria of SaXe-Coburg- Gotha, who is
two months younger than himself.
Grand Duke Cyril's father, Grand
Duke Vladimir, is a brother of Prin-
cess Victoria's mother, the Duchess
of Saxe-Coburg-G otha Both Cyril
and Victoria are thus closely con-
nected with the leading reigning
houses of Europe.
Grand Duke Cyril is first cousin to
the car and possesses an excellent
chance of succeeding to the Russian
by three lives. none or which would
be worth much from the point Of
view of an insurance company.
Princess Victoria is grand
daughter of the late Queen Victoria,
niece of the king of England, and
also first cousin to the czar, besides
being first cousin to the German en-
peror.
The boy and girl romance was re-
garded with disapproval by the rela
tives on both sides, and soon after
wards Princess Victoria was married
to the Grand Duke Ernest Louis of
Hesse, six months before she cele-
brated her eighteenth birthday. Grand
Duke Ernest Louis was eight years
older than his wife and the marriage
was not happy one.

$4,000 VERDICT

The jury in the case of Herbert d.
Williams against the s. F. & N. re-
turned verdict in Williams favor
70 r$33,000 after an hour and 40 min
utes' deliberation.
This is the largest Judgment ever
handed down in the courts of this
county. The suit was bitterly fought
on both sides, the main contention be-
ing not that of liability as much as
a fight on the extent Of the injuries.
For the past week Judge Richardson's
curtroom has been filed with attor-
neys and spectators watching the
progress of the suit.
