Lord SackviIle's Romance
An utterly different type was Pepita
Duran, and the tragedy that followed
in her wake was moral rather than
physical She was a Spanish dancer
in 1852 when she met Lord Sackville,
an English diplomat of note. They
lived together till 1871, when she died,
leaving two sons and three daughters
He sent the children to boarding
school and retired to Knole, the mag
nificent old mansion that was his an
cestral home. When Henry, the old
est son, was nineteen years old, his
father told him that he could not in
herit either the title or the estates,
and that he would have to get out and
earn his living away from England
He became a farmer in South Africa,
but he was not satisfied. and returned
to Eng and, where he tried to prove
that Lord Sackville had married his
mother. This so offended the noble
lord that he would have nothing more
to do with his SON.
Husband in the Way.
The reason Lord Sackville had not
married Pepita Duran was that she
already had a husband in the person
of Juan Antonio Gabriel de Olivia, a
dancer, who refused to get a divorce
and did not die until 1888, thus dis
appointing Sackville, who would gla d
ly have married Pepita and legitima-
tized her children If only the SpaniaYd
would have got out of the way.
On Lord Sackville's death a few
years ago the title and estates went
| to a cousin of the noble lords chill
dren. Henry, the South African
| farmer, went to England and claimed
the title. The case has just been
| tried before the House of Lords and
| was decided last month, the House
ruling that Lord Sackville had never
married Pepita Duran and that there
/ fore the claim of the plaintiff had nc
grounds This for the young man was
| tragedy, moral but none the less
4 real.
The recent death of King Leopold
| of the Belgians brought into the lime
light another woman-the Baroness
Vaughan-whom the aged king had
welded not long before he passed
away. She was girl of humble ex
traction-her brother is a waiter, hel
sister a seller of vegetables-witf
! whom he had lived for many years
| and who had borne him several chill
/ dren. For her this king made his
| daughters lives miserable, virtually
| putting the young women out of hi:
i house; to her he left a vast fortune
| that ought, in the natural course o
events, to have gone to his daughters
-ennobled her, he made one of he
sons a duke, the other a baron, an(
! he built palaces for them. Thus his
| infatuation for this woman cast ;
cloud upon the memory of a kint
who in many respects was reall,

Mystery of Faure's Death.

Mystery of Faure's Death.
The recent trial of Nine. Steinheil
in Paris for the murder of her mother,
though it resulted in an acquittal,
opened the door of cupboard in
which a skeleton had long lain hidden
1t revealed that among the host of
admirers of this wife of a complacent
artist had been President Faure of
France; it did not, however, unven
the mystery that surrounded the sud
den death of that statesman, but
rather drew it more tightly, for it was
more than limited that Nine. Steinheil
had been present in the presidents
death chamber.
One of the great tragedies of mod
ern history has never yet been ex-
planned authoritatively. 1t is known
that the Crown Prince Rudolph of
Austria and the beautiful young
Baroness Marie Vetsera were killed
together in a hunting lodge at Meyer
ling twenty years ago. The one man
still living who saw what happened
that night is the Prince of Coburg.
who is ending his days in such dis
ordered state of mind that nothing in
the way of a revelation can be ex
pected of him.
Archduke Rudolph married Princess
| Stephanie, daughter of Leopold of the
Be1gians, but they soon tired of each
other, as they had little in common.
Rudolph tried to have the marriage
| annulled, but the Emperor Francis
Joseph forbade it. Rudolph was then
passionately devoted to Marie Vet
sera, lovely girl not much more than
sixteen years old. How their romance
eliminated in tragedy will never be
known, but a certain doctor, a friend
of the Belgian Princess Stephanie,
Rudolph's wife, and Louise. wife of
! the Prince of Coburg, has just given
| the following version:
Story of the Tragedy.
There was a merry party at Meyer
/ ling, according to this doctor, and
Prince Rudolph. excited by wine,
boosted that Marie Vetsera had the
most beautiful neck and shoulders of
any woman in the world. Some one
disputed the statement. Whereupon
the archduke roughly tore the girls

| ing mrn the young baroness struck
the crown prince in the face with a
champagne glass, infiicting a severe
cut Instantly he shot her through

a pail of water near his residence in
