After Wilhelm heard her sing he could not re-
sist her." is the saying with regard to the re-
moval of the kaiser's opposition She is not strik-
ingly beautiful. but her pleasing appearance has
made her brilliant star in the stodgy court of
the German empress. All the other women at
tached to the empress service have been in her
service since the early days of her marriage and
either are or are old enough to be grandmothers.
The countess best friend in her love affair has
been the Crown Princess Cece, whose brother
is the grand duke of Mekenburg, OF which the

Countess Ina the royal bridegroom will confer a
settlement upon his wife. This is the 'morgen-
gabe' (morning gift) from which the term NOR
ganaticy comes. aszssssfr' sssa s1---'--
The marriage ceremony differs from the usual
custom in that the bride joins her right hand to
the bridegroom's left hand Ia token of their
unequal BIRTH and for this she cannot inherit the
estates of her husband receive his royal name.
Hence the day after the marriage he bestows
a new title upon her, according to the arrange
ments of the state and financial settlement.
This morganatic marriage is considered cs
founding an entirely new family. The kaiser will
grant the family name and Prince Oscar
will be paid lump instead OF his princely
allowance
Morganatc marriages have from time to time
been attacked as equivalent to concubinage.
This is a mistake, for the whole system of NOR
ganatic marriages has been built up by the
Protestant church to preserve the purity of the
marriage relation and at the same time preserve
the sanctity of royalty.
The royal bridegroom cannot marry again in
the lifetime of his morganatic wife unless she is
regularly divorced.

mother but they invariably obtain high office

THE NOVEMBER BALLOT
4 HUGH AFFAIR

The official ballot at the No
Vember election will be a narrow
sheet of paper 2t inches wide by
AZ inches long. It Will be an un1
wieldy and cumbersome affair.
Across the sheet in parallel &C
omns the various columns VII
be PLACED. In the first column
will be the list of state, eouu4y
and precinct officers to be voted
for. In the second column viii
be sthe democratic ticket, the
third will present the progress
sive ticket, the prohibition ticket
will be in the fourth, and the re-
publican ticket in the fifth col
umn, with the socialist in the
sixth, the independent in the
seventh and a non-partisan ticket
in the eighth. Unde" the last two
headings the ticket will consist
mainly of blank lines and voting
spaces in which the voter may
write names and marks after
them.
At the head of each party tick
ct on the ballot there will be the
usual square in which the voter
can mark his x if he intends vot-
ing the straight ticket.
But no voter should forget that
in voting the straight ticket in
that way he will not vote for
judges. They Will be printed on
the ballot separate and apart at
the very top of the sheet ,al-
ranged in alphabetical order,
with no designation of the par
ties represented by the respect
i've candidates. The idea Of that
arrangement is that the election
of the judiciary shall be taken
out of politics as far as possibl2 !.
While the various parties nomi-
mated their respective candidates
for judges at the primary cleo
tion in September, their names
go on the official ballot in Mover
ber without any distinctive de
ignation and the voter has to
pick his candidates.
The voter should bear in mind
the foregoing; unless he does he
will be apt to overlook voting for
the judges.

fed the hungry, visited the sick
and by his kindly nature, bound
up the broken hearted without
ostenatDn or hopes of worldly

as much as ye have done it unto
the least of these, ye have done
it unto me-, and that a glorious
reunion is assured when we too
have put off mortality and risen
triumphant to be clothed in i'm
mortality. We mourn with ye
who mourn, and rejoice with you
in contemplation Of his pure an1
