Malta for three days Tor repairs, he
met the beautiful daughter OF Il naval
officer, said at the time to be Miss
Seymour, iell in love with her and
married her. The marriage, al
though solemnized by a clergyman,
was not legal in the light OF an act
oil parliament regulating the mar
rage Of those OF royal blood. The
British admiralty also took occasion
to deny that there had been any
marriage. There were children born
OF this neutrality-suspicious. two or
three is not known outside OF circles
intimately connected with the royal
family. Young George was happy
and very much in love with his wife.

marriage OF Princess Mary OF Teck
and Prince George became the crown
prince. Immediately it was said he
would have to contract a marriage

the throne OF royal blood.
Queen Victoria took charge OF the
situation. She declared that George,
then the Duke OF Cornwall and York,
should mary the Princess Mary.
The prince, deeply in love with his
wife, rebelled. He wanted his mar
rage legalized by parliament. Queen
Victoria would not hear Of any con
promise but forced him to marry the
Princess Mary.

AFTER STEALING PURSE
Thief Pens EpiStIe Explaining He

"To the bulls: Last Tuesday 1 was
passing 1854 West Thirty-ninth street.
l saw purse on a table in the bed
room and, climbing through the win
dow, grabbeds it. I was hungry and
needed the dough. Some junk in the
purse, a watch, check and rings 1 had
no use for, so left 'em. If you peel
your eyes you will find purse in a
clump of weeds III a vacant lot at
Adams street and Vermont. The SIT
in the purse l needed
81 needed the money"
This is a note sent to the University
police station several days ago. Pa
trolmen went to Adams street and Ver-
mont avenue and found q purse such
as described in the letter.
The purse containing jewelry and
money was stolen from the house of
H. d. Jenkins at 1864 West Thirty
ninth street last Tuesday. The theft
was reported to the detectives, but no
trace had been found of the valuables
reported as having been stolen.
Several days ago the above letter
was received. Captain Bradish, in
command of the University division,

no more of it. Yesterday Patrolmen

The Theaters

A strong bill is underlined for the
Orpheum next week, not the least i'm
portant feature of it being the appear
ance of Minnie Dupree in vaudeville.
Miss Dupree was the star of "The
Road to Yesterday last season, ana
in this play she made a profound i'm
preston. She will present at the Or
pheum a skit called THE Minister'S
Wife" Another strong feature will be
AL Jolson, late star Of Dockstader's s
minstrels, who will have a new line of
patter and songs. The Six Original
Kauffmanns are the acknowledged
champion cyclists of the world, and
Frank Kaufman, the featured mem
ber of the family is best of all. Mile
Renee, an expert musician on many
Instruments, called abroad the god
dess of music" has been imported Just
for the Orpheum circuit, and will be
heard here for, the first time. THE
Operatic Festival" ]. c. Nugent and
company in 1.-THE Squarer," Flanagan
and Edwards and the. Harvey-DeVora
trio make up the rest of the bill.
An act soon to be seen at the Or
pheum and bound to attract attention
is the ."Top o. the World" dancers
the famed collie ballet from that mu-
sical comedy hit of last season. The
Kris Kringle's Dream" scene has
been lifted from the original and made
into a stunning musical act, with the
six collies as star features.
William Rock and Maud Fulton, just
secured for the Orpheum circuit, have
been jumped from New York to Spo-
kane to open, and will tour this coast
before visiting the eastern houses.
Lionel Barrymore, Mckee Rankin
and Doris Rankin, each a star in his
own right, are combined in new
sketch which has just started over the
Orpheum circuit. Thus the "all-star
cast" has broken into vaudeville. too.
The act is said to be strong and the
parts are perfectly played,
There are rumors that Martin Beck
will be here shortly Mr.. Beck was in
Duluth last month for the opening of
the new Orpheum there, and as the
new Seattle Orpheum opens shortly,
it is expected that he will be there for
that occasion and will visit the coast
while out this way.
William Faversham is a recent Or
pheum booking. He will present
sketch over the circuit.
