| forget what the largess OF my office
was.
Presently there were terrible do
ings. The old reigning grand duke de-
sired peace of mind; and moving de-
terminedly toward this end, he de-
clared in public that his niece, the
young and tender Princess Hildegarde,
should wed the Prince of Doppelkinn,
whose vineyards gave him a fine in
come. This was finality; the avuncu-
lar guardian had waited long enough
for his willful ward to make up her
mind as to the selection of a suitable
husband; now he determined to take
a hand in the matter. And you shall
see how well he managed it.
1t is scarcely necessary for me to
state that her highness had her own
ideas of what a husband should be
like, gathered, no doubt, from execra-

could not marry romantically, she re-
fused to marry at all.

and General Muerrisch, of the en-
perOr's bOdyguard, who was, I'm sure,
good enough-in his own Opinion-for
any woman. Every train brought TO
the capital some suitor with con-
sonated, hyphcnated name and a pedi-
gree as long as Il bore's idea of
funny story. But the princess did not
care for pedigrees that were squint-
eyed or bow-legged. One and all of
them she cast aside as unworthy her
consideration. Then, like the ancient
worm, the duke turned. She should
marry Doppelkinn, who, having no
wife to do the honors in his castle,
was wholly agreeable.
The Prince of Doppelkinn reigned
over the neighboring principality. If
you stood in the middle of it and were
baseball player you could throw a
stone across the frontier in any direc-
ton. But the vineyards were among
the finest in Europe. The prince was
widower, and among his own people
was affectionately styled der Rot
nasig," which, | believe, designates an
Illuminated proboscis. When he wasn't
fishing for rainbow trout he was sleep
ing in his cellars. He was often miss
ing at the monthly reviews, but no
body ever worried; they knew where
to find him. And besides. he might
just as well sleep in his cellars as in
his carriage, for he never rode a horse
if he could get out of doing so. He
was really good-natured and easy-go-
ing, so long as no one crossed him Sc
verely; and you could tell him a joke
once and depend upon his understand
ing it Immediately, which is more than
| can say for the duke.
Years and years ago the prince had
had son; but at the tender age of
three the boy had run away from the
castle confines, and no one ever heard
of him again. The enemies of the
prince whispered among themselves
that the boy had run away to escape
compulsory military service. but the
boys age precluded this accusation.
Cameron County press. [volume] (Emporium, Cameron County, Pa.) 1866-1922, 1907-09-19

The prince advertised, after the fash.
ion of those times, sent out detectives
and notified his various brothers; but
his trouble went for nothing. Not the
slightest trace of the boy could be
found. So he was mourned for a sea.
son, regretted and then forgotten; the
prince adopted the grape arbor.
l saw the prince once. l do not
blame the Princess Hildegarde for her
rebellion. The prince was not only
old; he was fat and ugly, with little,
elephant.like eyes that were always
vein-shot, restless and full of mischief.
He might have made a good father,
but | have nothing to prove this.
Those bottles of sparkling Moselle
which he failed to dispose of to the
American trade he gave to his brother
in Barscheit or drank himself. He
was 6S years old.
A nephew, three times removed, was
waiting for the day wnen he should
wabble around in the princes shoes.
He was lieutenant in the dukes
bodyguard, a quick-tempered, heady
chap. Well, he never wabbled around
in his uncle's shoes, for he never got
the chance.
| hadn't been in Barscheit a week
before | heard a great deal about the
princess. She was a famous horse
woman. This made me extremely anx.
ious to meet her. Yet for nearly six
months | never even got so much as a
glimpse of her. Half OF the six months
she was travelling through Austria, and
the other half she kept out of my way.
not Intentionally; she knew nothing
of my existence; simply fate moved us
about blindly. At court she was in.
