his procession 10 move on. The mournors
on the toys Of other cabs followed.
A band playing a mournful tune headed
the demonstration. Several Of the students
were on horseback, and one youth, who wore
a neat blending Of masculine and feminine
attire. chanted as he rode dirgo to the dear
departed.
The police let the students enjoy the
mock funeral TO the utmost and kept order
among the crowd Of onlookers. They even
bore with equanimity the remarks Of the
boys as 70 where the crown jewels we're
and insinustions against their profession.
A good deal Of noise was made before the
students considered that the sendof had
been satisfactorily accomplished and con-
sented to break ranks and return quietly 10
the college.
By rho death Of the large hippopotamus
Guy Fawkes the London Zoo has lost It's
oldest resident. She was born on Guy
Fawkes day and was named Guy Fawkes
at once with no regard for her sex. So
all through her life she was spoken Of as
'he' and very few people knew she was q

and was 80 when she died.
The degradation by order Of the German
Emperor Of Prince Joachim Albreoht, son
Of the late Regent Of Brunswick. is the
climax Of an extraordinary royal scandal.
The Prince, who has been compelled TO
leave the German army is 90 and q cousin
Of the Emperor and OF the Duchess Of Con-
naught.
Some years ago he fell IN love with Marie
sulzer. an actress who was his senior and
had gained a certain amount Of fame In
German adaptations of French faroes Of a
particular type. Her humble birth offered
an obstacle TO a marriage between them.
and 10 overcome this difficulty the Prince
made strenuous efforts to have the actrefs
ennobled, but the Kaiser sternly withheld
his permission and supported the other
relatives Of the Prince in their opposition
20 the match.
The Princes father by his will directed
that should he marry Marie Sulzer his in
heritance should be reduced from SlO, 10000
70 tS.2SO,OOO. The Prince then put into
operation a curious scheme.
Baron Won Liebenberg, a poverty stricken
descendant OF one of the most distinguished
noble houses Of Austria. was hired to marry
Mario Sulzer. For $500 he agreed not 70

had arranged the marriage, met for the
only time at a suburban registry Office
Of London. After the ceremony the woman
returned TO Berlin, where Prince Albrecht
again became he companion.
In the meantime Baron Won Lebenberg
carried out bis part Of the compact, but
when he applied for the price Of his honor
the marriage broker refused TO pay over
the balance due TO him and left him almost
panniless. On his return 10 Vienna further
trouble awaited him.
He found that he had been removed
from minor post as assistant to the magis-
tracy, for which he received 500 year.
and that a civil list pension Of $50 had
been Withdrawn. These salaries we're all
he had to live upon. For time he received
81 week from his titular wife, but he was
very dissatisfied with the way he had been
treated.
When, therefore, the second part Of the
plot was put into operation and his wife
sued for a divorce he proved refractory.
The whole scandal then became public
property. The Baron had the whip hand.
for had he chosen TO bring divorce pro-
oeedings the Princes relations with the
woman would have constituted, according
TO German law, criminal offence.
When the Emperor found that Prince
