BUDAPEST, Sept. 16.--A romance
that belongs to the middle ages has
been enacted in Hungary the last few
weeks. 1t involves the love affairs of
youthful count of high lineage and
an American Jewess of humble birth,
kidnapping of the young man by his
father and a rescue from the tower of
castle by the young woman, who
acted the bold knight in fashion that
equals anything told in novels.
The hero of the romance is Count
Sigismund zendovsky, aged %, heir to
one of the foremost aristocratic posi-
tions in Hungary. The wonderful do
ings Of his warlike ancestors were first
chronicled by the monks of the eleventh
century, and ever since that remote

BELGRADE, Sept. 16-A Russian
named Demetrius Azabeff was appre-
hended today through the agency of his
wife on the charge of desertion.
After spending the whole of her mar
riage dowry in gambling, he deserted
her and left the country.
His wife shortly afterward inherited
a legacy from an aged relative, and she
then determined to devote her income
to search for her husband, to whom
she had taken violent dislike, and
whom she wished to have punished.
Procuring the services of detective,
she journeyed in his company through
Brazil, Mexico the United States, Rou-
mania, Turkey, Greece and the Balkan
states, in each of which countries she
had been informed her husband had
been sojourning.
After her two years weary wander
ings, Azabeffs wife was informed by
the detective, who still accompanied
her, that her husband was staying at
Belgrade, and thither she quickly
journeyed from Jaffa.
Nine. Azabeff, on arriving at Bel
grade, inserted an advertisement in a
matrimonial paper, in which she de-
scribed herself as a charming and
wealthy widow wanting husband.
Her husband answered the advertise
ment, his letter bearing the signature
of Jean d'Arville, and stating that he
was Belgian railway contractor.
In due course a meeting was arranged
and when Azabeff came to keep the
appointment he was, to his astonish-
ment, confronted by his wife, who at
the instance of the detective, gave him
in charge.
AS the police entered the room in the
restaurant where the rendezvous had
taken place, Azabeff quickly turned
and fired at his wife with pocket pis-
tol, wounding her dangerously in the
head.

BERLIN, Sept. 16.-When the kaiser
returned from his trip to Tangier he
brought with him an extremely tall,
dusky Arabian, who was afterward
made bell tree bearer of the First
foot guards.
This Arabian belongs to a distin-
guished Moroccan family, and at the
kaiser's entry into Tangier he was
permitted to ride beside him. Now, when
he was offered his present position he
believed he was getting some exalted
post. His disappointment, therefore,
was great on finding that he was sim
ply to carry q heavy instrument In
the band.
He repeatedly refused to put on the
uniform because 1t was not lined with
silk. He used to smoke about thirty
cigarettes a day, to pay for which the
salary of a German soldier, amounting
to 21sd. per day, is not sufficient. The
soldiers fare he considers abominable'
being used mainly to chicken and rice
prepared after the fashion of his coun-
try. The German language is for him
an almost insuperable difficulty. and
he has yet to learn the most rudimen-
tary commands.

BUDAPEST, Sept. 16.-The Emperor
Francis Joseph has been evicted from
hunting estate in Hungary.
The emperor had for some years past
leased from the municipality of Buda-
pest an estate at Godollo, where he has
been in the habit of spending a month
or two every autumn.
The lease being on the point of ex-
piration, the municipality, in reply to
the emperor's request for it's renewal.
dispatched messenger to the imperial
court, curtly stating that 1t had de-
cided to put up the estate for public
auction.
His majesty, through the medium of
representative, then made an offer
for the renewal of the lease, but was
outbidden several times by other in
tending tenants, until the price had
risen to enormous proportions.
On behalf Of the emperor the dep
uty, M. Hedervary, then proposed a
compromise and asked that the num-
cipality should bind itself not to per-
NIT any hunting in the locality during
the emperor's sojourn at the Villa of
Godollo which is his majestys private
property.
This request was finally refused, the
municipality formally declaring that "it
could not compel the population to
show so much consideration toward
the sovereign"
The syndicate formed for the &C.
QUESTION of the estate thereupon de-
posted $4,000 with the municipality
toward the rental, the chairman declar-
ing that the property should be with
drawn from the emperor's tenancy at
any price.

EDINBURGH, Sept. 16.-With grouse

Scotland enjoys it's annual holiday.

remains that six weeks see the high
water mark of our season in Scotland.
But the Duke and Duchess of Fife re-

many lovers of the country and of sport
find a charm in the shortening days of

Scotland is rich country and an

ages who entertain in splendid style
throughout the entire season. The
Duke and Duchess of Sutherland give a
series of parties at Dunrobin castle; the
Duke and Duchess of Westminster are
at Stack lodge, Sutherlandshire; the
Duke of Atholl has big Shoots" at
Blair Atholl; the Duke and Duchess of
Roxburghe entertain at Floors castle:
and the Duke and Duchess of Buc-
cleuch are at Drumlanrig cas-
tie, Nithsdale; Lord and Lady Bread
albane receive at Taymouth castle;
Lord and Lady Ancaster at Drummond

at Balmacaan, and Mr.. and Mrs. Neu-
mann at Invercauld.
Where Life Is Different
Life in a Scotch country house differs
customs of an English abode. Sport is
the aim of existence, and the ordering
OF the day-dress, drives, games, hours
for meals and everything else-is regu-
lated by the will of this omnipotent
deity. Breakfast is an early affair and
dinner late one, the latter often being
put off until o'clock And dancing
and bridge for once take back seat, as
men tired with a days sport prefer
armchairs to the whirl of the valse
and their beds to a bank at baccarat.
The dukes of Atholl, Argyll and
Sutherland, Lord Kinnoull, Lord Mar
and Kellie, and many others all love
TO conform TO the customs of their
country. The wearing of the kilt is still
carefully observed in smart society in
Scotland. A gentleman of high degree
dons a kilt of the palmer tartan for
morning wear and for shooting, and in
the evening when he dresses for din
ner he puts on his full dress tartan,
with sporran and richly jeweled dirk.
After dinner, at dessert, the High
land pipers enter the dining room, and,
struttlng proudly around and around
the table, play lively tunes on their
bagpipes. And they go their round
every morning at 8, and arouse the
sleepers with their "divine music"
Every great house has it's piper, and the
office is often an hereditary one. In
fact, the old feudal spirit dies hard in
Scotland, and ancient customs are
faithfully maintained.
