PARIS, Jan. 13-HaVing established
herself as queen of popular favor by
her triumphs at one of the main boule-
ward theaters Mile. ViVienne has the
public with her in her latest adventure
For the past few years it has been
everybodys secret that the fair damsel
was under the special protection of Il
young sprig of French nobility who has
recently come into his own. Among his
property was string of pearls worth
100000, family heirloom, which was
supposed to descend from wife of oldest
son to wife of oldest son. The young
man gave this magnificent necklace to
Mile. Vivienne after one of her great
successes. Things went well for a few
months longer. after which period the
nobleman found it wise from all points
of view to choose wife. 1t was in
eVitable that the question of the pearls
should come up.
Mile. Vivienne, who had really fallen
I'm love with the donor. is supposed to
be holding on to the pearls in the hope
of forcing him to marry her, in which
case she would become the rightful
poSsessor of the heirloom. She insists
that marriages far less convenable than
such n one as hers and the young man s
have already often occurred among the
Napoleonic nobility to which he be-
longs Moreover, she claims, the pearls
We're a token that he intended to make
her his bride. Otherwise he would never
have given them to her. The youth de-
clares that he cannot marry her, but
is willing to buy back the pearls for
100000. If she refuses and sells them
the case will come out In court, and
since both the parties are among the
best known boulevard characters in the
capital a scandal will result
The actress friends urge her to re-
member that she may lose both the
pearls and the young man If the matter
gets before the tribunal, while she can
at least get 100000 francs by giving
them up. Mile. Vivicnne is still hesi-
tating.

ROMANCE FULL OF ACTION
Meet on Corner, Woo Walking, Meet
Rebuff and Finally Succeed, All
in Thirty-Six Hours

| Special to The Herald.
CINCINNATI, Jan. 13.-A meeting at
street corner, proposal of marriage
that was accepted, mistaken visit to
the city hall, corrected call on the
| marriage license clerk, trip to New
port, with a wedding there, and pill
grimage to the brides home to intro
duce the groom to her parents, form the
interesting incidents in the romance of
Fred g. Craig of Indianapolis and Car
rie G. Lott of Price Hill. The contract
ing parties had known each other but
SO hours when they were welded.
Craig came here several days ago
from the Indiana capital to assume
position with Fourth street clothing
enterprise. A day or two after he met
Carrie Lott, a pretty cashier In down
town establishment Thursday night
he met her again at Sixth and Race,
proposed marriage and was accepted.
Thinking the city clerks office was
the place to secure the necessary Ii
cenSe, they started Immediately for the
| city hall, but Clerk Henderson told them
to go to the courthouse. Things were
closed for the night at that place, and
| they proceeded to Marriage License
Bader's home on Bates avenue. Alight-
| ing at the wrong corner the bride-to-
| be waited in the office of an undertake
ing establishment until her husband
to-be found the clerks residence. Bader
was sorry he could not accommodate
him, and advised trip to Newport.
The young couple started on their pill
grimage over the river, and finally OBJ
tanned the necessary document. A sud-
den romantic notion of the bride to
be married over the telephone was then
proposed, but the clerk Informed the
young couple that such a proceeding
was not legal in Kentucky, although it
might go in Ohio.
"We'll go back to Ohio then" said
the bridegroom-to-be
But your license won't do you any
good there" said the clerk.
The to-be looked at the paper
for a moment, and the visage of the
young lady showed her keen disap-
pointment. Then they concluded to
have the knot tied i'm the usual way.
and they walked up York street until
they arrived at the residence of Rev.
| +. Il. Bigelow, who pronounced them
man and wife. The groom is 27 and
the bride 90
Then came the interesting feature of
introducing the bridegroom to the
brides parents, who had never heard of
! him. They live at 1887 Fourth avenue,
Price Hill. The parental blessing was
! finally bestowed. Craig is said to come
from a well-to-do family of Indianap-

GUILFORD, Ind, Jan. 13.-FoXes

that an enterprising farmer suggested
that fox drive be organized to clear
the countryside of the red thieves that

country fell in with the idea. Several
packs of hounds were let loose and
scurried through the fields and woods.

barking of the hounds. They stampeded
and breaking out of their pen dashed
through the fields and woods. The
dogs gave up the chase of the foxes
and attacked the sheep. killing and
