Austria and Russia. The Kaiser Is
poorer than he was at the beginning of
his reign, because he has invariably

little more besides. 1t is an open secret
that the German Emperor has raised
loans on various occasions, so that it

finances are not in the most prosperous

All of these circumstances combine to
make 1t essential that the wife of the
German Grown Prince should be a

the pockets of his entertainers. One
can't very well accept presents with
out giving something in exchange. By
announcing that he will accept no pres
ents he escapes the burden of having
tc make any.
When King Edward, as Prince of
Wales, made his memorable visit to
India, he brought back with him a
shipload of gifts worth something like
$780, 900. And Parliament was re-
quired to vote $500, 900 to help him pay
for the things he had given away.
There would be lot of objecting in
Parliament and some nasty things
would be said il it were asked to re-
peat that performance. And it is doubt
full if such grant could be carried
through again.
The most costly Of the gifts received
on that occasion came from independ-
ent native Princes. 1t was a much
easier matter for them to raise money
in those days than it is now. They
levied tribute pretty much as they
pleased and their subjects were COM
PEELED to pay. Since then British in

tions on the tax-levying powers OF the

lenburg- -Schwerin was finally selected
as the best of all the possible eandi-
dates, the German Emperor and his
advisers have not shut their eyes to
the fact that she does not possess all
the qualities which they considered es-
sential to the position. 1t is true that
she will fulfil their expectations in re-
gard to financial matters because her
grandfather, the Grand Duke Michael
Nicholaivitch of Russia, has promised
to make her his heiress. and he is a
man of fabulous wealth. The Grand
Duke will present his granddaughter
with substantial dowry on the day of
her wedding so that she will bring her
husband a big fortune combined with
the centainty of a colossal legacy at
a date which cannot be postponed much
longer, for Grand Duke Michael
NichoIaivitch is already seventy three
years of age.
Duchess Cecilie is also a Protestant.
The San Francisco call., 1905-04-02

but here her qualifications end. AL
though she herself appears to be a
healthy girl and although she lives a
rational life largely devoted to outdoor
sport and exercise, she comes of a
stock which is so unhealthy that the
gravest fears must be entertained for
the future of the Hohenzollern dynasty.
Her father was consumptiye. and for
many years of his life was in such
delicate health that he was obliged TO
spend the greater part of the year in
enforced exile in the Riviera or in the
mild climate of Italy and Sicily.
His son. the reigning Grand Duke OF
Mecklenburg- -Schwerin. who is Duchess
Cecilie's brother, appears TO have in
herited the terrible disease. The Grand
Duke, with his pale emaciated features
and sunken cheeks, has the appearance
of a man doomed to consumptive de-
cline into an early grave.
REPORT OF A SCANDAL.
Another grave objection to the choice
of Duchess Cecilie as the wife of the
German Crown Prince was the embar-

BERLIN, April 1.-Pretty Duchess
Cecilie of Mecklenburg-Sc -Schwerin was
not selected as a suitable wife for the
German Crown Prince until many
other candidates for this exalted posi-
ton had been passed in review and re-
jected by the German Emperor and his
advisers. 1t was no easy matter to find
a Princess who combined all the quail
ties for German Empress. 1t was felt
that the German Crown Prince must
have wife who is robust and healthy,
SO that she will perpetuate a sturdy
and vigorous Hohenzollern stock. 1t
was also felt that the future Empress
must be in possession of a large private
fortune, because the German Crown
Prince will not inherit much money
from his father.

REASON FOR BAN ON GIFTS.
The Prince of Wales has been cred
tied with displaying great tact and
self-denial by causing it to be an

cess win accept any ceremonial pres
ents on the occasion of their forth
coming Indian tour. From the COM

early in 1908. A statement was pub
lished in the newspaper press OF nearly
every European country that Grand
Duchess Anastasia of Mecklenburg-
Schwerin had eloped with a young bar
Der who had been an assistant In
hairdresser's shop at Schwerin.
The young barber in question, it was
said, had been frequently summoned to
the grand ducal palace at Schwerin to
dress the hair of the Grand Duchess
Anastasia, who had become enamored
of him. When the Grand Duchess start
ed on her annual journey southwark to
spend the winter at Cannes the young
barber disappeared from his shop. and
was noticed few days later at Cannes,
where he continued to attend the Grand
Duchess. The young Grand Duke
of Mecklenburg-S -Schwerin arrived at
Cannes a few days later. drove the
young barber away in order TO put an
end to the malicious comments of gos-
