Archduchess Marie, Unhappily Wed, QuitsIier
Husband to Toll as Nurse in Vienna: HOSPITAL
Was Destined To

LEI. Husband Immediately After Ger.
cmony and leaves World to Guess
- = Her Reason.

Vienna, Oct. 22.-ln all effort to
forget the past and heal her own ach-
ing heart. the Archduchess Isabella
Marie. daughter of the Archduke
Frederick, the richest Of the Austrian
royal family. has gone to work as a
nurse in a Vienna hospital.
Eighteen months ago the ARCH
duchess was married to her cousin.
Prince George of Bavaria. She had
been bcthorthed to him for some time
and everyone expected that the mar.
riage would be a success. Yet she left
him Immediately after the ceremony,
thereby furnishing one Of the most
amazing episodes in the amazing
family history of the unfortunate
Hapsburgs.
Efforts OH the part of mutual
friends to effect a reconciliation were
truitiess. Some months ago the arch
ducness had the marriage annulled,
leaving the world at large 10 guess
the reason.
A rev weeks ago the sisters Of the
Red Cross were astonished when the
aTchduchess came to them and de-
clared her intention Of training for
Red Cross work. Such q thing hal
never been dreamed of before. Aus
TRAN archduchesses are so hedged
ABOUT by ceremony that they are sell
dom brought into contact with the
world. Their whole life Is arranged
for them from the cradle to the grave.
Tney never are permitted to do a
hands turn for themselves. So the
sisters In the hospital were curious to
see how the archiuchess would enter
into her new life.
The rules of the establishment are
severe. The sisters must be at work
ut In the morning. The cases are
all difficult. ones. During the six
months Of training the sisters are
called upon to witness many opera :
lions, and this takes strong nerves.
1t hardly seemed possible that the
delicately trained archduchess could
stand the strain.
Yet she has done so, to the very
great surprise of the other nurses.
Refusing to stand on her rank, sne
mingles with her fellow workers,
spending much Of her leisure time on
the nat roof Of the hospital. She
works like an ordinary girl from a
middle class family. The other
nurses are permitted to absent them
selves from the hospital but once a
week. and the archduchess has not
asked for more extended privileges.
There Is considerable speculation
as to what the. future of the young
archduchess will be. The eldest
daughter of the Archduke Frederick.
second cousin of the emperor, she
was destined to a throne.

"Devil Anse" said that so far as
he is concerned the war between the

not a great economist: not a great or
ator; but he was "A great president
and a great man: and he was these
because of Il strong mind, clear intel

fairs. He had the character, honesty,
courage and sense of public duty
which enabled him to meet great and
critical issues without regard to per-
sonal consequences.
when he was nominated for the
third time he was nominated against
the will of the politicians, and by a
popular uprising in the ranks of the
party.
Years Bring just Reward.
when he left the white house the
last time it would seem that the Bit
terness. enmity and open attack upon
him by former party associates would
overwhelm him. But as years wore
on within his dignified retirement. in
the great benefit he wrought for this
university and in the wide influence
for good he exercised. the whole pub

qualities of the man, till now he has
