Is Insane, says an exchange. " ' ! 1 ... iSmall wonder. lAnd this latest tragedy of the "un- nappy jiapsDurgs'- is tne end of a ldve story. . , ,s Elizabeth Is the granddaughter of the emperor of Austria on her fath ers side, and on her mother's side the granddaughter of the King of Bel gium,,: A. queen's opronet was In wait ing for the brow' of the princess, Elizabeth loved a soldier, an officer of the Uhlans."" She begged permission to marry .him. regardless of her pros pects, Desired to give up a life of royalty for love. And so it happened, Two years ago the princess of 18 kneeled before the old gray-haired emperor, her grand- iatner, and In ; the presence of the whole court of Austria,. pressed to her Hps the golden crucifix and murmured the words of the formal niith th.t put her beyond the pale of royalty- all for the love of a man, 1 ; Is there anywhere In history u scene of greater abdication or of e.veeter self-sacrlflcefy'::';' ;:' :.; , And then her friends gave her jew els and moneya great fortune. , i Poor princess. The man for whom she gave up her queenly , perogatlves broke'' her heart' She stooped' to him 'and he ruined her life. He spent her money In riotous living. So gentle was her nature that there was not a word of reproof for , the shameless husband for whom she had stepped down from a throne. !" Then came a day when the heart less Otto brought a, low actress, with whom he had been consorting in Deportee! Japs J " Being Watched old PUDiio to his apartments In the " "ague the home she had given him under the same roof with his princess wife, inis was too much. The heart broken young wife could "not "endun mo jiugranj onense. She forced her way to the apartments and shot the woman through the heart' Shamed ruined, outraged, who her?

Schwab, has filed his answer to a cross bill of the United States Ship building Company and James Smith, Jr., Its receiver, In the Unjted States circuit court , ' , Six Men Who Will Return "on lib? drapura Have no Chanct to- , V Escape From Shipv. If the vigilance of a double force of ' guards can prevent It, the oriental own- nlng of six Japanese passengers who j will be deported on the Indrapura this i trip will not be sufficient to aid them In J effecting1 their escape from the vessel ' before she gets out of the ColumWa river, Owing to the recent escape of r the Ave little brow men from th In- ' dravelii, Immigration Inspector Bar- I bour has docided to take no chances ! on there being a repetition of the ooour- rence, ' There will be four guards In-, i stead of the customary two, who will i accompany the steamer to the mouth of I ', the river. . Mr, Barbour states there Is no rea-j sonable doubt now that the Japs who j escaped from the Indravelll were , drownod,, He says that resident Jap-j anesa are fully oonvlnoed' that their! recreant', countrymen found wateryl graves, and their opinions on matters' ot this kind are almost Invariably 'Cor rect. Had they succeeded In evading the- officers and gaining their liberty, ns explains, their friends on short would-be beaming with unalloyed Joy, ' Instead, however, they ' art wearing faos donned by the deepest mourners, They .wo convinced that the ool tors for freedom are dead. V ; The six. who will be deported Include ' a woman. They failed to pass a satis foytory examination." It was shown thut they were travelling on passports ' which had seen service before! , The supposition Is thai they ware sent them ' by otb$r Japanese who preceded tb.om to the United States. From now on It' will be Impossible for this , plan to be. successfully worked, J Inspector Iter' hour Is introducing a ns system by having each ot the p.tssports stamped' so that any attompteu fraud will be revealed at a glance hereafter, The government of the emperor has not,' been Issuing the coveted passports so freely as was done In the past, It has at last become convinced, that th United States Is desirous of having1 Immigration from the orient restricted and is endeavoring to win the good graces of the Xmerlcan republlo by complying In a measure at least with , ' Its desire. Mr, Barbour states that only a limited number of Immigrants are Issued passports each year by th Japanese government, i . T.'esplte the precautions observed by the officers, one of the Japs managed , to make his escape last night, The mnn was handcuffed and four officers were watching the deported men on the ship at the time of the secape. The passenger who, got away last night Is a criminal and the officers regard him . as a, dangerous man. Every effort will be mile to bring about his capture, There Is m 18-year-old boy who came '' over on the Indrapura whose fat has ' not yet' been fully decided,. He I anx- ' lous to go tp California, and If any on is found who wilt stand ; sponsor for him he will be permitted to go. , All . the 91 other passengers have bsen r- ' leased, , . ., :, . 8enator Hsnnsh Improving.
