T is natural enough. with the at
tention that the recent marriage
Of the Princess Victoria Louise
of Prussia to Prince Ernst, the
oldest son of the Duke Of Cumber-
land. and the exceedingly interesting
political consequences expected from
the match have aroused. that the mind
of the world should turn to consider
other possible royal unions. One need
be neither a monarchist nor snob to
take an interest In such a matter as
this. as there is something that APP
peals to the Imagination In the we'd
ding Of any two young people VINO
have as much that makes for happl-
ness as members Of royal houses ana
who will, moreover. WELD an influence,
If not power that will affect materi-
ally those who come near them.
BY far the most important of the
royal matches that are likely to be
made In the next few years Is that OK
the Prince of Wales. The princess
who will be fortunate enough to be-
come queen of England will attain
the safest Of all thrones and will at
the same time be, elevated to one OF
the most interesting positions In the
world.
It is true that the prince is still so
young-he is just nineteen years old
this summer-that it is as yet somewhat
premature to expect him to take unto
himself a wife. but one may be assured
that in a good many courts Of Europe
a close watch is kept on his move
ments, the slightest gossip about him
is treasured up. and a rumor of a visit
from him would set a number Of young
hearts futtering.
Indeed, already there have been ru-
mors which are perhaps intelligent

her second cousin. and in the many in
termarriages Of European royalty that
is perhaps as distant relationship as
any English prince is likely to bear
toward his bride when the complica-
tons of religion and political expedi-
ency are considered. The father Of the
crown princess was a prince of the
house of Hohenzollern before he was
elected on April 20. 1866, prince Of
Roumania. and the mother is Carmen
Sylvia whose poetic genius and arts
tic talent have made her so pictur-
esque figure in the annals Of court
life.
On the other hand. it is said that
Queen Alexandra. the queen mother. is
very anxious that the Prince Of Wales
should choose as his bride the prin-
cess Tatiana of Russia. She is the
second daughter of the car and was
