Screen OF Secrecy
Wells Wedding OF
Kaiserand Princess

Doom, Holland, Nov. 6.-(By
Associated Press. )--The German
ex-emperor and Princess Hermione
Of Reuss were married Sunday at
the house of Doom. This second
venture was IN strange contrast
with that day in 1881 when, as
crown prince, he welded Augusta
Victoria daughter of Grand Duke
Frederick of Schleswig- -Holstein.
Several of the offspring Of that
first union were present today to
set the seal OF family approval to
the new alliance.
There were two ceremonies, a
civil contract drawn UP and
signed by wilhelm II" and
Hermione, Reuss," as they af-
fixed their names; the second, a
religious ceremony conducted by
the ex-court chaplain, DR.. Vogel,
according to the Lutheran rites.
The air of secrecy surrounding
the entire affair has been well
maintained throughout. The
climax of the systematic mystifi-
cation adopted by the household
came when the brides sister,
Princess Ida, who resembles her,
successfully passed herself off as
the bride at the Amerisfoort sta
ton with an array of castle cars.
whereas Princess Hermione left
the train at Apeldoon half an hour
early and drove to the castle un-
observed, those within the palace
making much of this as huge
joke.
At the religious ceremony
which began with the singing of
the Lutheran hymn Jesus Geh
Voran," Pastor Vogel preached
from the text "Now abideth faith,
hope and charity" The bridal
couple occupied carved gilt arm
chairs surmounted by crowns,
while the numerous guests were
seated in rows behind them.
