palace at ChiSlehnrst, England. She j.
assured of four years more Of life. She
says, for mystic prophecies and combina-
tions Of figures giyer her d span Of "a
years. She believes that the present Eu-
ropean war Will revenge her for The ruin
OF her affairs inflicted BY the Prn~~ianS Ia
1870. Eugene was bornin Granada,
Spain, on May >, 1926. Her great grand
mother was a lowly Spanish girl, with
nothing but her beauty. a French wine
merchant OF Malaga married her. They
had two daughters. one of whom married
an American named kirkpatrick. This
American consul was the grandfather of
EugenIe.- With her mother, Eugene jour
president, Napoleon III, and after IA ro-
mantle courtship they were married in
1888. The beauty OF Empress Eugene, her
charm and elegance, contributed TO the
popularity OF the regime, and when the
downfall came in 1870. she was one of the
most courageous. When Napoleon was
taken prisoner at Sedan she obtained his
release and fled with him and their son
10 England. Her son was killed in the
British army in 1879, and thus persisted
her hopes Of %regaininy the French throne
in his behalf. Eugene has turned over her
palace a. a war hospital, and she takes
an active interest in the care Ut the wound
ed soldiers.
