INDIAN PRINCE IN
REAL Love WEDDING
Representatives of Leading Rul-
ing Families of India, Mar
ried Today in London.

London Speculative of the most
powerful native ruling families of
British India were united today when
the Princess Indira, only daughter Of
the reigning Maharajah Gaekwar Of
Boroda, was married to Prince Jiten-
ORA, son Of the Maharajah Of Cooch-
Behar, after a romantic courtship.
The initial ceremony, which took
place in the strictest privacy, was per-
formed at the hotel where the young
bride had been staying and was ac-
~companied by the customary Hindu
rites. Prior to the marriage the Prin-
cess Indira has been received into the
B~rahrnanist faith, the creed Of the
bridegroom.
Subsequently the form of a civil
marriage were gone through at a reg
istery office.
Intense interest had been aroused in
the attachment Of the couple, whose
wedding had first been fixed to AXE
place in India November 5, but was
suddenly called off. Immediately aft
erward the bride and her parents
sailed from Bombay for England and
were followed by Prince Jitendra. 1t
is understood tina the gaekwar finally
yielded to the opportunities Of his
daughter and consented to the mar
riage, at which, however, he was not
present.
The bridegroom created a sensation
this morning by appearing at the hotel
in his magnificent Indian robes Of
white silk heavily embroidered with
gold.
The brides father and brother,
Ehrimai J~alsingrao, are both well
known in the United States, where the
latter studied at Harvard. Her mother,
the maharani, is a woman Of advanced
ideas and Is the author of a book on
the position Of the women in India.

~ROUSSEAU,S DREAM.

The unfortunate Rousseau a spent

those people who are destitute of the
sense Of humor, a magnifier OF trifles.
No sooner a he returned to his house

self up in the business at all.
He a mixed himself up with an
intrigue, the magnetism Of Madame
Linden no longer held him. and the
deep distrust with which this %extraor-
binary man viewed his fellow-creatures
once more had him in it's grip.
He sat down in an old armchair by
the spinet which stood opposite the
door of the dusty sitting-room, and fell
to considering the position. De Lus-
sac he had known and respected as a
young man, wealthy, of noble birth
and fine appearance, who, despite these
worldly gifts, had displayed an earnest
ness of thought strangely at variance
with the frank futility marking the
thought Of the court; but he knew ut
tie else about the comte, except that
he was an admirer and disciple Of Jean
Jacques Rousseau.
Unhappy Rousseau! Like many a
great man, he a doubts OF his own
infallibility; he who doubts others pc
comes a doubter of his own merits, and

for this pupil of his was spreading no"

CHAPTER I.

THE CAMPAIGN ON MADAME,
Madame Linden, having taken her
departure from the Hotel de Richelieu,
drove to her house in the Rue Coz
Heron. Her plan Of campaign against
De Sartines was developing into action
with admirable precision.
One might have imagined that her
first thought on finding herself in pos
session Of the Porcheron document
would have been the freedom of De
Lussac. She, however, was quite I'M
of the sufferings Of the comte
and absolutely ignorant Of the terrors
Of imprisonment in the bastile. Her
plan against De Sartines included the
release of De Lussac that evening and
it seemed to her that a few hours Of
Imprisonment more or less did not mat
ter. Assured of her power to free him,
she put De Lussac from her mind. De
Joyeuse, Madame de Stenlis, and lac
anne d'Harlancourt she had dealt with
and punished sufficiently for their
petty o%ffenses; De Sartines alone oc-
cupied her thoughts. Her hatred for
De Sartines had become during the
last hour a passion; hat word Of in
suit spoken by him before De Richelieu
and h others had completed what his
acts had begun. Her heart held no
mercy for him.
When h arrived at her house she
dismissed the carriage. was admitted
by Rosine, and went upstairs calling
on the maid to follow her.

ington by rats nibbling at the ends Of
matches.
In Chicago the rat is the nauseating
companion of scores Of thousands of fami-
lies. There are certain streets in the con-
gested sections Of the city where rats
swarm under the feet of passersby. They
drive children off the sidewalk. Infants
have time and again been saved from
being bitten by a hairs breadth. The
determination of the rat is a vital need
in this city.
Unfortunately such determination is a
remote possibility. For the rat is only a
symptom of a grayer social disease-of
bad, and, in spots. criminal housing.
The rat thrives mostly in the neighbor-
hoods where there are a lot of dilapidated
frame dwellings having no gas, with toll
cts in the yard or in the cellar, and with
the poorest plumbing. Were all rats to
be exterminated In such a building today,
there would be a fresh army of them in
a month. These old shacks seem to breed
rats as they breed disease, and crime and
drunkenness n insanity.
The rat nuisance is a problem In CHI
cago. But 1t is only a fraction Of the
overtowering problems of defective, GRIM
inal housing. The nuisance will be abat-
ed completely only when the housing prob
lem Is solved in accordance with the de-
mands Of health and civilization.
