an Actress.

At Possenhoffen, on Lake Stanen-
berg. in the Bavarian Tyrol, stands a
chateau in which lived Sophia. daugh-
ter Of the Duchess Ludoviac. Possen-
hoffen is also memorable as the birth
place Of the late Elizabeth. wife of
Franz Joseph. emperor Of Austria. It
Is there that the emperor when a
young man. having gone to propose
for the hand Of Elizabeth's older sis
ter. saw a girl in short dresses run
ming about the grounds. fell in love
The change was reluctantly granted
by the father of the two girls. and
Franz Joseph took Elizabeth back to
Vienna. From that marriage sprang
Rudolph. crown prince Of Austria. 1t
was he and the Baroness Vetsera who
gave the world probably the most
tragic love affair that has ever in
volved an heir to a throne.
There is another story of a royal
lover whose ladylove lived on Lake
Stanenberg. This was King Louis Of
Bavaria. His affair did not end in a
tragedy. but anne near being one.
Louis. who In his youth was especial
ly handsome. was of a peculiarly fiery
disposition. He was betrothed to the
Princess Sophia. and the match. ac-
ceptable as it was for reasons of state.
was. in addition, a lovers mating. The
royal pair were often together at Pos
senhoffen. frequently sailing over the
bosom Of the lake in view Of the
snowy peaks Of the Tyrolean Alps.
While in Munich the king met a very
beautiful actress. This woman. whom
we shall call Gretchen, was captivated
by the handsome young king. falling
desperately in love with him. She
knew that he had recently been be-
trothed to Sophia and that his heart
went with his hand. Gretchen formed

Bavaria.
And yet this episode which separat-
ed a pair of royal lovers turned out a
blessing in disguise for the Princess
Sophia. Louis outbursts Of temper
were but the precursors Of insanity.
Later his mind gave way. and anoth-
er took charge Of the government Of
his kingdom. while the legitimate SOW
ereign was confined under the care Of
a physician.
The king vas not violent and was
permitted to take walks with his at
tendant doctor. One evening while
they were out together neal the lake
which Louis had loved so we'll and
which had been the scene Of past
episodes in his life he made some ex-
cuse to leave his guardian for a few
moments He seemed in such good
mental condition that consent was
given. Presently the doctor heard q
splash. Hurrying to the lake. he saw
his charge In the water. Jumping in,
he seized the king, but the latter was
too strong for him and. getting him
under water. held him there till life
became extinct. Afterward the dead
bodies of the king and the physician
were found in the lake.
Another tragedy involving the death
cs one born at Possenhoffen was the
assassination Of the Empress Eliza
beth of Austria at Geneva by an an
archist. Indeed. the place and the pc
Rod were full of remarkable happen
ings to the royal houses Of Austria
and Bavaria.
