VIENNA, Dec. 24.--It was not politics
that brought the 6S-shah OF Persia 10
Vienna on his recent visit. which caused
a flutter Of excitement in diplomatic cir
cles. 1t was love, love of a beautiful
Irish American dancer who had gained
the heart OF the former monarch OF the
Persians.
The story goes that few months ago
An Anglo American dancing Quartette
performed at a vaudeville show i'm Te-
heren, and the shah ordered the four
dancers TO give private performance
at the palace. There he promptly fell in
love with the youngest, Mabel Flynn. II
years old. He gave her valuable pres
ents and asked her TO become his fourth
wife. She rejected these overtures. de-
claring that her principles would not al =
low her TO marry a man who already had
three other wives, and the quartette left
Teheran without taking leave OF the eX-
shah.
Since then the monarch In exile has
been inconsolable and has been trying In
every way to get possession OF the girl.
AT last the Persian embassy at Vienna
Informed him that the quartette were
dancing al the Casino dc Paris-a high
class cafe dansant OF Vienna The ex
shah tried again to induce the girl to
