GERMAN NOBILITY
ACCOUNTED CARELESS

Berlin, June 28.--The German
police and the German courts are
wiping out the privileges of the mob
ility. They have now begun to look
sharply after the counts, barons,
ETC., who have hitherto sold their
titles in the way of nominal mar
riages" to ladies of no particular re-
putation. The National Zeltung pub
fishes, a list of instances without
giving the names in which inquiries
are now to be made by TIC GRIM
inal police. 1t states that there are
no less than seven genuine count
esses whose acquaintance can be
made without. any particular cere-
mony in Berlins red light quarter
any evening.
Advertise For Spouses.
A Berlin paper published recent
ly, seven advertisements stating
that several barons, some counts,
"a foreign marquis, etc., desired to
wed women who would not insist
on their matrimonial privileges,
They need not be pretty, but they
must have money. Several women
applied. while two other women
promptly inserted advertisements in
the same paper, giving a regular
schedule of the prices they were
prepared to pay for the title of
countess. baroness, marchioness.
etc. The prices We're not very high
but they got quite number of ans
wers and arrangements for the mar
riages We're soon in progress.
In almost all cases the marriage
contracts contained secret stipula-
tons that the parties Should Sc
parate Immediately after the we'd
ding breakfast and that the hus-
bands should not further interfere
with the manner of life of their wiy-
es nor make inquiries into their
conduct In plain language, the
women were not to be allowed To
mingle in the red-light drawing
rooms of gay Berlin and to 11aunt
their legitimate titles before their
admirers.
Ready to Marry Again.
For a short time the farce was
Kept up, and then the German nob.
les In question sent their solicitors
instructions to apply for divorces on
the ground of desertion and light
manner of living. The suits were
undefended, as of course, the Sc
cret clause in the marriage docu-
ments could never be brought before
the court SO that the divorces were
granted and the countessess return
ed with their titles and without
their husbands to the gay life again.
But the husbands, being free. now
proceeded to advertise again for
more marriages on the same terms.

NEW CANDIDATES
DURING PAST WEEK

Pierre, S. D., June 28.-The for
NAL entry into the political game
of two new candidates within the
past week, would indicate that the
candidates themselves believe the
campaign is on. The men who have
formally stated their wishes are
Hon. Thos. Sterling as candidate
for the United States senate to sue
coed Senator Gamble and that of
Hon. A. L. Van Osdel, of Mission
Hill, Yankton county, as candidate
for governor. Van Osdel is one of
the pioneer residents of the north
west, taking a part in a number Of
the Indian campaigns in the two Da-
kotas, and in 1890 he was the In
dependent candidate for Lieutenant
governor, that being the first name
taken by the populist move of those
days. Since that time he has serv-
ed the state in the legislative halls,
and thinks he can get into the game
as governor.

And his brings me to the tenure of
office of his remarkable monarch. He
has held the throne for forty-eight
years, although his predecessor was
expelled from it, and if the people
were much dissatisfied it is doubtful
whether he could retain it today. The
ruler of Greece has not a drop Of
Greek blood in his veins. He is the
son of Christian, the late King of
Denmark. and he was placed on the
throne at the suggestion of the great
powers which protect Greece. He was
elected by the national assembly here,
and accepted the crown through his
father acting as guardian. This was
in 1868, when George was only
eighteen. A few.months after this the
national assembly at Athens declared
him of age, and he came here to rule.
He has been on the throne ever since,
and one of his family. although it is
doubtful whether this will be the
crown prince. will succeed him.

after he assembled the throne to Olga.

This man did not call upon the United
States minister, but went direct from
the ship to the palace and asked for
the king. His letter was taken in,
Whereupon his majesty ordered that
he be admitted. Before the Ameri-
can entered he cried out asking if his
Wife might also come in. This re-
quest was granted, and the two were
received. Il am told that they asked
so many impertinent questions hat
the ling had to pretend another APP
polnttnent to get rid of them and
that he practically asked them to
leave.
Many stories are old Of the King in
connection with the Greeks. He
talks with the people whom he meets
on his way through the country and
listens to what they have to say about
himself and the government.
is, Of course, when he is not recog-
nized. He has no trouble in getting
opinions, for every Greek farmer and
cartnan has his own way of think
ing, and is not ayerSe to making it
Known. Not lonS ago his majesty got
into conversation with a peasant
walking along beside him following
his cart filled with vegetables. Sud
denly h peasants horse slipped and
the vegetables were scattered all Oyer
the countryman began to swear, but
the king caught hold Of the horse and
made it get up and proceeded to help
put the vegetables back in the cart. At
this an officer of the army
passed by and saluted The coun-J
tryman was amazed and realized h
the king was his helper. He did not
know what to say, w~hereupon hts ma
jesty gave him a gold piece and re-
marked:
My good man, you are foolish to
waste your time swearing and praying
hen you get into trouble. What. you
want to do is to put your hand to the
wheel and pick up your carrots He
walked away laughing.
A Royal Money-Making Farmer.
Speaking OF the vegetable cart, /
have no doubt that his majesty knew
the value of those carrots and po-
tatoes and just what it cost to raise
them. He Is, I am told, one OF the
best farmers of Greece. He had much
to do with founding the agricultural
department., and has rendered great
services to the armer Of the country.
He has large farms Of his own and l
am told that it is now possible to buy
butter and milk in Athens which come
from his majesty's dairies. He has

and has imported Danish dairymaids
to superintend the butter making. He
has large vineyards. and the kings
wine is regularly sold in the markets.
It is about the best made in Greece

hotels.
I am told hat the king has made
money out. of his estates as well as in
speculation Of various kinds. He gets
an allowance from the government of
a little more than $4,000 0 a year
and he has about 800, 0C0 more from

His majesty is a Lutheran, and this

An Unpopular Queen.
| am told that the queen is not liked
by the Greeks and this notwithStand-
ing her charities. which include hos
pitfalls, schools and other benevolent
Institutions. The Greeks are Sensi-
tive. and her majesty IS said to favor
the Russians and to want to introduce
Russian methods into the Grecian re-
ligion. Both nations are Greek
Catholics. but there are some differ
enceS. Not long ago there was a great
fusS about revising the New Tesla
| ment. which caused what was known
as the Gospel riot. On this occasion
the Russian priests got out an edition
of which the Greeks did not approve.
Her majesty distributed some of the
Russian. Testaments among the sol
diers, and this brought a mob to the
palace, who yelled Down with the
Russian meaning the queen. It is
said that the queen visits the Russian
war vessels they come to
the Piraeus, but that she will not go
on a Greek vessel except when she
has to travel from one port to another.
SO altogether she has gotten the ILL
will of her subjects.
Nevertheless, her majesty has earned
the right to be popular, for she is al
ways doing something for the women
OF Greece. l. have visited schools OF

President Taft on Thursday sent to
congress a special message, accom-

such a treaty reached by representa-

conference in this city.
Identity of interests of the two
peoples, linked together by race, Ian

gives as the chief reasons for such
reciprocity as he recommends. The
president says he feels it is "the wish
of the American people that this

and cordial relationship with Canada"
