It Is reported from Berlin that Prin cess Victoria Louise, the kaiser's only daughter, has fallen In love with and will marry l'rluce Ernest August, youngest son of the duke of Cumber land.

Hundreds of con pratiilatory messages poured In to the old soldier, and tlio London newspa pers referred to the day as "Hoberts dny," urging that It bo bo marked In future calendars. Were one to set forth this man's titles In full It would read as If an extract from some peerage "roll." Sir Frederick Sleigh Hoberts is knight of tho Ciarter, grand commander of the Bath, grand commander of tho Star of India, grnnd commander of tho Order of tho Indian Empire, recipient of tlio Order of Merit, privy councilor to tho king and (this, perhaps, ho values most of all) ono of that noble nrmy of heroes on whose breasts have been planed by the monarch's own band tho Victoria cross, molded from tho bronze of captured cannon. Born at Ctiwnpnr, British India, on the 80th of September, 1&12, when William IV. was England's king, this ono day commander In chief of all his country's armies was fathered by Gen eral Sir Abraham Hoberts, while his mother, Isabella, was daughter of Major Dnnbury of tho famous Sixty second foot. "Tho playing Held of Eton," which bavo turned out so many English men of war, received Fred when Just In his teens, with Sandhurst to follow with its practical military training and inspiring Ideals, and so, when ten weeks turned to nineteen, ho came to his ilrst commis sion as second lieutenant of tho Ben gal artillery. Soon dawned darkly the bloody days of tho terrible "mutiny," through all of which this stripling In his twenties served as deputy assistant quarter master general. Ho took his part in tho slego and capture of Delhi' In '57, onco being wounded and at another tlmo having n horse fhot under him, an experience, by the bye, twice aft' er repeated at BulandHhal and at KannnJ. He fought during tho reliefs of both Lucknow and his natal town of Cawnpur and was present at half VAfv :' A ' i it? ,'ifti - V PniNCESS VKTOniA Muisa strongly hinted thnt a match might be arranged with Edward, prince of Wales. However, if the present rumor bo correct it will end tho ancient feud between tho houses of Cumberland and Ilohcn.oltern, which began over tho absorption of the kingdom of Han over by rrussla. It Is declared the dulio will renounce his claims to tho throne of Hanover, vacated by his fa ther, Georgo V., and that tho kaiser will appoint I'rlrce Ernest as regent of Brunswick. Tho prince, who is twenty-five years old, Is a lieutenant In tlio Bavarian army. He met tho princess at a court dinner In Berlin, where he was sent by his father to convey his thanks to the emperor for nn Imperial message of condolence following tho tragic death of I'rlnce George William last May.

Afghanistan merely canned tl Umax to this record of ability anil bravery, and It was no small thing to plunge northward into regions practically unknown. If Malor General Hoberts, marching down victorious from out tlio Afghan pusses, had but a brief road to travel In reach bis Held iiuirslial's baton he covered It quickly. Ho was lieutenant general when he tonic the Held III Bur ma In 1SSH and before 1SIHI had passed was full general. Ills Held marshal's commission bears dale of May .". ISO." Then ho laid down the military com ma ml of India, which had been his for an even dozen years, and served in turn as commander In chief In Ireland (lSiir.1)), In South Africa (IKIKM'.KX)), whero ho relieved Klmberley and cap tured Cronje with ills Army of tho West, and lastly of all tho British arms MIMU-o). Ho then became chairman of tlio Imperial defense committee. Hoberts had JuhI been created captain nt tweotv-seveii when, homo on his Ilrst leave, ho met Miss Nora Hews, daughter of the commander of the Seventy-third foot, and after a few months' courtship the two were wedded In tho llttlo parish church at Waterford, Of the six children born to the union tliree died In Infancy, while tho son, Lieutenant Frederick Hugh, In whose budding military career lay so much of hlirh nronilse, was mortally wounded on Dec. 15, IS!
