Romance of Old Portugal

The recent deposition of King Manuel of
Portugal and the events in the young kings
life that led up to It will no doubt bring back
to tho minds OF some of the older residents
of the city tho story of Elise Hensier. the
Springfield girl who married king and be-
came the Countess Edla.
The king she married was Don Ferdinand
IL. OF Portugal, great grandfather of King
Manuel. Elise lived in Springfield about GO
years ago, probably for about four years
The Henslers were humble people and
lived simply. The daughters, Elise and Louise,
were well received here and were given a
good musical education. especially Elise who
had quite a remarkable voice. Signor Guidi
an Italian, at tho time we'll known teacher
OF the voice. took an interest In Elise and IL
was when signor Guidi went to Boston that
the Hensiers went there, largely through his
influence He believed that Elise had n fl.
ture as singer and wished her to be where
he could continue teaching her.
Elise Hensler after her removal with her
family to Boston continued her studies She
was perseverant In her work and progressed so
well that she not only appeared in concerts in
the large cities In this country, but also In Eu.
rope. where she sang before royalty II was
whilo singing In Lisbon several years after the
death of Queen Maria that King Ferdinand
heard her voice and felt the attraction that
led him to marry her
Ferdinand was the titular king of Portugal.
having been the second husband of Queen
Maria II. OF Portugal. Ferdinand married
Maria in 1886. when he was 20. The queen
died In 1853. and he was regent during the mi
nority OF his son, Pedro ", who was the IA.
ther OF the assassinated King Carlos. the
grandfather Of the deposed King Manuel. The
regency ended In 1855. and on June 10. 1868.
he married Miss Hensler.
When the European powers decided the
time had come to restore Spain to n monarchy
following the overthrow OF the short republic,
which existed from 1873 to 1876, considerable
pressure was brought to bear upon Ferdinand
to induce him to accept the vacant throne
But his wife could never be queen Of Spain.
and 1t is possible that this fact alone induced
him to refuse
This absolute refusal on his part to accept
the throne of Spain, with all the pomp and
splendor Of royalty in exchange for the roman.
tic life that no was living with his morganatio
wife, had far.reaching consequences. The COM
plications and 1ealousies resultant on the at.
tempt to find king acceptable to all the pow.
ers helped to bring on tho Franco. Prussian
war, and Alsace and Lorraine went back TO
Germany, whence they had been wrested by
Napoleon Bonaparte
In consequence Of these peculiar historical
facts. which geographically practically changed
all western Europe Elise Hensler, Countesa
Edla, became famous throughout the world ma

During the life of the king they lived I'm tho
beautiful castle of Cintra. II is certain that
their life was above reproach In 1885 the
king died, and after that the countess lived I'm |

to the rescue Of this magnificent urn from the
grave where II had lain for hundreds of years
hidden and unknown The vase was found
early in the seventeenth century by some la
borers who. digging on hillock In the neigh
borhood Of Rome, broke into small vault.
On further examination II revealed n suite
Of three sepulchral chambers In the largest
room they found finely sculptured sarcopha-
gus, which contained the beautiful vase 1t
was full Of ashes but II bore no inscription as

ever been solved which shrouds its origin
The vase was deposited in the Barberini pal.
ace. where It remained until ITO, when the rep.
resentative OF tho Barberini family, Roman
princess was forced to part with II to pay her
gambling debts The vase changed hands
twice, then 1t was disposed OF to the duchess OF
Portland, but with such secrecy that her own
family was not aware of the transaction until
after her death.
At the sale OF the duchess of Portlands col
lection 1t was purchased by her son, the third
duke of Portland, for the sum OF $5,145, and It
was deposited in the museum by his successor.
The vase was wantonly smashed in pieces by
drunken visitor, but the fragments were,

draw roses from their friends now and then.
The other afternoon one of her rosy friends
pinned bright red one on her and she sal

felt tug at the shoulder and turned to see

''Whered you git that rose?" asked the
stranger covetously.

the answer, produced with some chill
