MARRIAGE IN ROYAL
FAMI[YS UbJECTFOR
THOUGHT FOR WAR


LONDON, Dec. 10.-Speculation as to
royal marriages. always lively topic
of gossip, has been increased since the
war began for the field of possibilities
SO far as the royal houses of Great
Pritain and Russia are concerned has
been narrowed by the war. Thoughts
of marriage between the princes or the
princess in Buckingham Palace with
anybody of Hohenzollern associations
are now out of the question. Meanwhile
the Prince of Wales is in his twenty
second year, his brother Albert will be
twenty on December IA, and the Prin-
cess Victoria passed her eighteenth
birthday in April last. The three
younger brothers range from fifteen to
ten years of age so their brides need
not cause their royal parents any con-
Germ yet awhile.
The choice of the next Queen of
Great Britain is of such Importance
that even this great war can not OBJ
scure the popular interest in the selec-
ton of a wife for the Prince of Wales,
and it is recalled that while he is %
now his father was married to the
Princess of Teck when he was % years
old and his grandfather married Queen
Alexandra when he was not as old as
the Prince is now. The exceptionally
late age at which King George was
married may in part have been due to
the fact that the heir to the throne, the
Duke of Clarence, did not die until
1892, and his brother, the present king,
was married the next year.
That there are five boys in the royal
family here is fact that widens the
field of speculation. A weekly pape"
in it's last issue for example, published
the portraits of the two beautiful Rum
anian princesses with the hint that
they might later be better known in
Britain, a safe and indefinite sugges-
ton in the circumstances.
Similarly it is equally vague to make
suggestions with regard to the large
royal family in Petrograd, but all the
gossip selects no mate either for the
Prince of Wales or Princess Mary. The
cleverness of the Hohenzollerns in
placing their children in so many of
the royal families of Europe has been
the subject of many articles in the
British press during the war and it has
been pointed out how this has affected
the diplomatic situation in Holland,
Sweden, Bulgaria and Greece. Mean
while there has been no wedding in
the immediate royal family since the
Kings sister Maud married King
Haakon VII of Norway in 1896.

FORMAN'S DEATH A
DRAMATIC OUTCOME
Ills Play 'Thc Hyphcn,' Which
Angcrcd Germans. Proved
to BE His Doom.
BIDDER AS STAGE CENSOR

A slng,ilarly dramatic incident in the
tragedy Of the Lusltania is the death
OF the short story writer. Justus Miles
Forman, because OF his connection in
tho pas. two months with the present
struggle in Europe, although he was all
tho time in this country.
Mr.. Forman was 30 much impressed
by the activities of the hyphenated Ger
mans H. America that he decided to put
them into a novel. Then 1t appeared to
him tina. there would be no time to pub
llsh such a work before II might be
stale SO he decided to make his first
effort as u playwright In utilizing the
material for the stage. lie outlined the
play. known as The Hyphcn,' and read
ii to his friend Edward sheldon, who
sent IL TO Charles Frohman Mr. FrOh-
man read the play one Friday, accepted
II the next day and on the day after he
was engaging the actors for the per-
Torrance. Never before had any un-
known playwright found such a ready
market for his work.
The character Of the work became In
some way known TO Herman Rldder, who
sent Mr.. Frohman violent pro est
against It's production. He dema uded
a copy of the scenario, which was sent
to MIN Then he desired more de-
tailed account of the contents of the
work. After learning It's character he
protested against the performance. said
that the German American societies were
united TO man IN opposition TO the use
of the activities OF Germans In this
country In fiction or on the stage. and
declared that he would not In any way
be responsible II the first night perform
ance was interrupted by the expression
OF their disapproval.
A few plain clothes men were In the
theatre when the piece was acted There
were some signs OF displeasure, but there
was no need OF police int ference The
play proved ~ finely written but alto
gether undramatic work. After few
performances Ii was taken 10 Boston, hut
was acted there for only one week
II was the failure Of this play which
decided Mr.. Forman to go to Europe.
He At frs. intended to be war cor
respondent. but his arrangements 20 that
efect were not carried out But hc had
already made his plans 10 sail and when
he learned that Mr.. Frohnar was going
on the Lusitdria he took passage ard
