HIS
SUCCESSION
TO TIE
THRONE

NAMED under medical care in the
strictest sort of seclusion during a
period Of more than two years.
When Carmen Sylvia returned to
Bucharest, in 1894, completely cured
Of her alteration, she found her
nephew Ferdinand safely married
since 1892 to the most beautiful Prin-
cess of any Of the reigning houses of
Europe, namely to Marie of Great
Britain and ireland, born in England
as the daughter of Queen Victoria's
sailor son Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh,
by his Russian wife, only sister of
tho late Gar Alexander III.
What reconciled Queen Elizabeth to
this new condition of things on her
return to Bucharest was that Crown
Princess Marie already had given
birth to a boy, then a youngster of
sixteen months, upon whom the Queen
was able to lavish the affection and
tenderness Of a grandmother; and I'M
til the day of her death, a couple of
years ago, she held no further commu-
nication with Helene Vacarescu, who
lives in somewhat ponderous spinster-
hood, in the memories Of the past,
admidst a literary coterie in Paris.
Nor has King Ferdinand ever re-
GREETED the loss Of his one time fiancee,
Queen Marie, especially before the
Balkan wars, during which she played
the role of a heroine by her tireless
devotion to the relief of every sort
of suffering and to the nursing of
the wounded and those who were dy-
ing of cholera and of typhus, was far
too fascinating and far too gifted in
the matter OF clever coquetry to adj

The Case of william.
It may be remembered that old En-
peror William insisted upon sacrific-
ing his rights of succession to the
throne of Prussia in favor OF his
younger brother Charles in order to
marry Princess Elise Radziwill. with
whom he was blindly infatuated and
to whose memory he remained devoted
until the end of his wonderfully pro-
tracted life, in 1883. But his father,
King Frederick William III, would

Approaching the gravity of the sit

veto the projected marriage. Ferdi-

expressed his determination to follow
his elder brother in resigning his
status as Crown Prince rather than to
give up the sloe eyed maid Of honor.
His uncle. the King, responded by put

banishing Mile. Vacarescu and her

'THERE is a saying, happy is
the man who has found his
work." and It is interesting to
note that many men and women have
attempted various occupations before
eventually discovering their meter
upon the stage. Some of the best
known actors and actresses formerly
were engaged in lines of endeavor far
removed from the dramatic profession,
SO that there have been curious con-
trasts in their lives. past and present
being Numerically opposed.
Sir Henry Irving gained recognition
as one of the foremost actors of his
time, but he educated his two sons for
careers not connected with the thea
tire, Henry Brodribb Irving for the law
and Laurence Irving for diplomacy.
Henry Brodribb had appeared as an
amateur actor before being called to
the bar, and he subsequently adopted
the stage as a profession. Laurence
was at the British Embassy in St.
Petersburg for a time, but he turned
duck turns to water.
James H. Hackett was a popular
player of a former generation, being
especially esteemed in the role or
FaIstd6, but his son, James K. Hac-
kett, was destined for the law. Never
theless he followed his appearances as
an amateur with professional debut
and has remained on the boards ever
since, first as q romantic hero and
more recently as a delineatcr Of char
acter parts.
George Grossmith was well known
English actor and, although satisfied
that his elder son and namesake
should follow in his footsteps, he edu-
Gated the younger son, Lawrence, as
an engineer. However, at the age OF
10, Lawrence became an actor and has
since gained renown in musical COM
edies and has married an actress,
sister Of the late Vernon Castle.
Harvey Was Architect.
Martin Harvey and Lewis Waller
became actor-managers OF note, al
though Harvey had been trained as
naval architect, and Waller had served
five years apprenticeship in a London
business house, during the latter por-
ton of the period being a foreign cor
respondent. Mr.. Walters son, Ed
mund, was educated as an engineer,
but he too became an actor in due
time.

character to admit of its alliance
through matrimony with the reigning
family. King Charles was CURLY and

Government, and also of the opposi-

inevitably would cost him his crown
