The Grand Duke-BahI (Swears
softly on his way to the stables.)
But the princess had in her mind
a plan which, had it gone through
safely. would have added many gray
hairs to the dukes scanty collection.
1t was mighty ingenious plan, too,
for a woman to figure out.
In his attitude toward the girl the
duke stood alone. Behind his back his
ministers wore out their shoes in wait
ing on the caprices of the girl, while
the grand duchess. half-blind and half
deaf. openly worshiped her willful but
wholly adorable niece, and abetted her
N all her escapades. So far as the
populace was concerned, she was the
daughter of the favorite son, deSd
these Is years, and that was enough
for them. Whatever she did was right
and proper. But the hard-headed duke
had the power to say what should be
what and he willed it that the Prin-
cess Hildegarde should marry his old
comrade in arms, the Prince of Dop-
pelkinn.

turers wrote to me personally that
they considered themselves grossly in
suited over the action OF the duke.
Diplomatic notes were exchanged, and
finally prevailed upon the duke to
state that he held the wheel harmless
and that his anger had been directed
solely against his niece This letter
was duly forwarded to the manufac=
turers, VINO, after the manner of their
kind. carefully altered the phrasing
and used it in their magazine a1ver-
tisements- They were so far appeased
that they offered me my selection from
the private stock Happily the duke
never read anything but the Fliegende
Blatter and Jugend, and thus war was
averted.
Later an automobile agent visited
the town-at the secret bidding of her
highness-but he was so unceremo-
niously hustled over the frontier that
has teeth must have ratified like a
dancers castanets. 1t was a great
country for expeditiousness, as you
viii find, if you do me the honor to
follow me to the end.
So the grand duke Swore that his
niece should wed Doppelkinn, and the
princess vowed that she would not.
The man who had charge of my horses
said that one OF the palace maids had
recounted to him dialogue which
had taken place between the duke and
his niece. AS was anxious to be off

NEW ITALIAN rying success.
-. = In November
1906. the contracts were signed for q
church and parish house in East One
Hundred and Fourteenth street The
work in this district was undertaken a
dozen years ago in a colony of Italians
which has increased with the years
until their number is estimated at
from $4,000 to $4,000. A simple, digni
fed style of architecture, Italian in
feeling, has been chosen.
The basement in every part is fully
utilized; large room for meetings in
front, gymnasium, locker rooms
baths and toilet rooms in rear, besides
heating apparatus and coal vault; a
dreproof passageway with firepCoof
doors, etc., extending from front base
ment entrance to a stairway in the ex-
treme rear Of the building, the stair
way giving direct access to the roof
garden over auditorium, without the
necessity of passing through the va
rious departments of the building
this passageway will also serve as an
emergency exit from the auditorium,
should it be necessary.
This first story has the main audi.
torium in rear and a large room in
front that may be used, if required,
for weddings or funerals.
The auditorium is reached by a
broad passageway, having ffreproof
partitions and floor, direct from street.
The main stairway leads from this
hall to the top of the building, the
stairs, partitions and doors in them
being fireproof. Space for an electric
elevator has also been provided, con
veniently planned to carry passengers
to the rooms in the upper part of the
building.
The second floor will contain the
main Sunday school rooms; this and
the gallery in the auditorium are ar
ranged to be thrown together if de.

IN A POKER GAME
COURT is ASKED TO RESTORE
PROPERTY
Romantic Historic Events Reviewed
In Effort to Establish Claim to
Valuable Real Estate Hold
ings at Pena City

The romantic history Of a city within a
city, or the town which was bartered as
stakes in a poker game in the good old
days OF the dons and the padres, is about
to be unraveled in the probate division of
the superior court
Pena City, located in the neighborhood
of West Jefferson street was the location
of the old plaza where the many fiestas
of the Spanish saint calendar were cele-
brated, and where the guitar tinkled ac-
compartment to the gay fandango, while
bold dons with clinking spurs sat around
tables and gambled and drank and smoked
cigarettes.
It was on one of these festive occa-
sions that the owner of Pena City is said
to have gambled away his claim to the
gay village for the paltry sum of 5000.
Julio Carrillo de Rios, heir of Francisco
M. de Carrulo. heir to the city. claims the
gambling transfer to be invalid and de-
mands an investigation into the affair.
The present value of Pena City is esti-
mated at from $50. 900 to $15O000. The pres
ent claimant says her brothers, Vicivedo
and Ramon Rios, bartered their claim to
Pena City for $40 each. while her share
has never been administered.
Pena City. known as the town of Las
Milpas. was the scene of bull batting,
cock fighting and bronco busting in the
early days, 1t was the haunt of the peo-
ole when the big celebration of the six
teenth of September was celebrated. The
case has been placed on the dockets of the
superior court.
