was based on the assurance from Mex
leo and Nicaragua that Zelaya would
go into perpetual exile.

Jacques Lebaudy, heir to the ac-

who was the richest man in France,
Parsian dandy, soldier of fortune and

his palatial private yacht somewhere
in the Mediterranean, seeking to for
get in mad pursuit of pleasure the
i'll fortune that has followed his at
tempts to place himself on a throne.
In his early life Lebaudy was eccen-
trio. and there were some who called
him mad. Relieved from the necessity
of work by the immense fortune he
had inherited from his father and his
brother. Max, he spent his youth in
travelling and drinking to the dregs
such pleasures as Paris and other
European capitals can offer to the idle
rich. He was still youngster when
Paris palled upon him and, sore smit-
ten of ennui, he originated the crack
Drained idea of establishing an empire

For a time after his solemn procla-
nation of himself as an emperor"
Lebaudy was surrounded by hordes of
flatterers, some attracted by his
money and others by his supreme au-
dacity. To these he apportioned out
titles and honors with profuse liberal
ity and today there are many bogus
noblemen who received their titles
from Lebaudy. He appointed ambas-
sailors and minister's and established
consuls in many European and Amer

not recognized by any nation, they
served to exalt the majesty and van
ity of their imperial master.

now in the last stages of dissolution,
and the emperor" has succeeded in
almost entirely dissipating his vast
fortune in attempting to foster his
rattle-brained project.

DAILY SHORT STORY
M'CLANAHAN'S UNDERSTUDY.

Dan Larned and Jessie Clifford Of
the Wilmering stock company were
desperately in love. The continued
delay of the actor and the actress in
uniting their fortunes was matter
of no small wonder to the members
of the troupe, but they were left to
their own surmises in figuring out
the situation.
Finally an inkling as to the real
reason they did not get married
leaked out. The bill they were to
put on Tuesday night was one of
those home plays in which the mar
riage of the hero and heroine was
featured in the last act, the cere-
mony being performed to meet the
request of the brides dying father.
Il don't like the play little bit"
exclaimed Miss Clifford, at the con-
clusion of the rehearsal. ut

He muttered these words as he
left the theater by the stage door.
Then an idea dawned upon him, and
the fact that the street was throng-

from clapping his hands and ex-
