she has talked peace and has stated

Weimar.
\ Love Affair.
The princess was a woman OF
placid temperament. and she was
delighted not 10 be compelled 10
take her daughter about. She,
therefore, allowed the latter 10 do
what she pleased, and Sophy took
to frequenting some houses in Hell
delberg, where perhaps, under diff
ferent conditions, she would never
have set her foot. She met there
all kinds of people, principally stu
dents OF the university. which COM
prised young men belonging TO quite
which she was supposed TO move.
Among them was the son Of the
great Berlin banker, Baron Won
Bleichroder, the heir to many mil
lions. and at the same time an at
tractive and handsome fellow, but
of Hebrew origin. which, according
to German ideas. disposed of any
possibility of his ever being accept
ed as a husband by the parents Of
any titled girl. Yet it was with him
that Princess Sophy fell in love,
and it was he who whispered in her
ear words of affection, and who sug-
gested TO her TO try to persuade her
father and mother to consent TO
their marriage. He drew in engag-
ing colors the prospect of the beau
tiful life she would be able to lead
with him; a life where every desire
would be at once fulfilled; where all
that her heart could wish in the way
of jewels, pretty gowns, pearls. dia-
mOnds, motor cars, lovely houses
and splendor would be put at her
disposal.
The girl believed him, and at last
picked up sufficient courage to
speak to her parents, with the re-
suit that she drew upon herself such
storm of abuse that, in her des-
peration, she did the very last thing
she ought to have attempted. She
went 10 seek her lover at the hotel
where he was staying and entreat-
ed him to run away with her and to
hide her somewhere where it would
be impossible for her father to find
her, but, alasl alasi for the illusions
Of little SOphy. The baron did not
care to endanger his position in the
world by a romance with a member
of a royal house. which he feared
might have disagreeable conse-
quences for him. He would have
been willing and eager to marry
her with the consent of the Weimar
family, and indeed had only thought
of this social triumph when he acted
the Faust TO the poor Gretchen who
had believed in him, but he did not
care for a clandestine love affair.
and he told her so in uneouivocal
terms.
Princess Sophy returned home
brokenhearted, having lost all her
illusions, with nothing but dreary
prospects before her. She took her
brothers revolver and shot herself
IN her room the same night. The
poor little girl with golden hair and
blue eyes, the sentimental Gretchen
who had believed that the GERMANY
and the Weimar of today were still
those of Goethe, paid with her life
for the mistake
