A Da.rk Horse She Married In Haile, but Did Not Repent al Leiiure. By LUELLA D. COWLES. Copyright, 1310, by American Press Association. You will scarcely believe your senses, my dear, when you receive this my an nouncement that I am married. Just think! When you left me only two days ago i told you that under no con dition whatever would I marry, be cause I knew of no man I wished to marry, and yet here am I married. And doubtless you will exclaim: ‘‘Poor Irene, after all my warnings! Some one of the hunters for her ten millions has bagged the game. And now that he has got her and the millions he will hang on to the money and the wife will have to take care of herself.” Hut you are wrong, my dear, entire ly wrong. I have married the best man in the world, one who loves me devotedly. Why will people Insist that a sordid interest must always prevail over the yearnings of the heart? My case at least affords an iustance wherein love has risen superior to avarice. Hut T must tiegin at the beginning or rather, at the beginning of the end. You know all till the 12th, the date of my parting with you. You know that I had promised the count an answer on the 13th, that a new and attractive offer from Prince Fiegenhelm had been been made to me on the 12th and that, while the count was a delightful man, irrespective of his title, to be a priu coss was far more attractive than be ing u countess. Meanwhile General Du Pont had cabled me from Paris that he was about to sail for America hoping to induce me to reconsider my refusal of him. On looking over my memorandum book I counted seventeen other offers, including six titles. Can you blame me for becoming confused? Count Po llnski stopped at hte hotel at which 1 was living and would not let me out of ids sight. The prince, who is wealthy—he is an old man—was more dignified, more ceremonious, but he would not take ‘‘No” for an answer. His is one of the oldest families in Prussia, and he is on intimate terms with the emperor. The Earl of Micle ton was at Newport when you left—he is tile Englishman, you know'—but sent me a long letter from there explaining that with my fortune he and I could put tils castle hi order and entertain royally. Perhaps if there had not been so many and such tempting offers I might have taken up with some one of them. But no sooner did I get my mind fixed on the advantages of one than I was called upon to consider those of an other. The prince would tell me of the dinners wo would have with the* em peror and empress and the great social advantages to be derived therefrom. Then the count would describe the Jewels that have been in ills family for centuries, and the exquisite pleas ure of possessing them almost tempted me to decide In his fuvor. But while I was thinking about tliem the fact that the earl is an English peer with a seat in the house of lords would come up before me, and you know the English nobility is the finest in the world. But there is one thing about the Midetons Unit isn’t n bit nice—the family derived its estates through one of the mistresses of a former king of England. Oh, dear! My brain begins to whirl again at thinking of all these induce ments that were so lately pulling me in every direction. I thought how nice it would be if they could all lie united in one man. To he a German princess and sit at the emperor’s tnble. a peer ess of England and Vie received at Buckingham palace, a rolish cou.'itess and wear family jewels a thousand years old—I almost wished we could have thnt system that was in vogue In olden times—Polly Andrew, I think it was called—whereby n woman could hare as many husbands as she pleased. (I Viirve looked the wend up in the dictionary, and it's polyaixlrous.) Just think! I could have been a German princess, an English peeress and a Polls h countess. Besides. V could liirve had a real husband to love me. Helgho! If I liad had the making of social sys tems I would have made them much better than 1 find them. Ab I was telling you, tlie day after you left I found myself In a very un comfortable position. I hiul promised the count an answer, the prince was of too high rank to keep waiting. Gen eral I)u I’ont, who, by tie by, 1 didn’t tell you comes of one of the oldest families in France and may be presi dent some day, arrived from Paris, nnd the Earl of Micleton came down from Newport. What do you suppose? Pol inski was waiting in my private parlor for his answer when up comes the prince’s card. At that moment a note is handed me from General Du Pont stating that he had arrived and would call at noon (it was then ID. While reading his note«anotber waiter hands me the card of tha Earl of Micleton. What was I to do? I just sat down andscried. But I 'only shed a few tears. I hadn’t time. I must think, or, rather. I must act. My first thought was to accept the prince,, he being of the highest rank and con sidering his intimacy with the emperor and all that. But I just .could mot give up being a peeress of England. (Jen era! Du Pont had couie all the way from France to plead his cause, and there was a possible presidency of ibe French republic In his suit. As to Po llnski, I had promised him an answer on that very day and had led him to believe that it would be favorable. Besides, I got to thinking of a certain gem ho had described to me among those family jewels. It seemed to sparkle just as If it was really before my very eyes. It. was dreadful, these four men all pushing their claims and I not able to fix my mind on any one of them to the exclusion of the others. And then think of the difficulty of handling so many suitors at once. That alone was enough to set one wild. You know the saying the homeopat fi les have, “Like cures like?” Well, to handle all these men I was obliged to call In a man. John Jones has had the full charge of my property ever since father died and has managed it very well and, I believe, very honestly. 1 knew I had something far more diffi cult to manage than property, and John was the only person I could think of to help me. I just telephoned him to come right up from his office. lie telephoned back that he was conclud ing the sale of one of my buildings that ho was anxious to get rid of and desired to nail the transaction, fearing another building would be sold instead of mine. I told him that if the whole estate was in danger of being lost I wanted him to come right up anyway. In ten minutes after that he arrived. I told him of the four men who were trying to get at me to marry me. “Have you no preference?” he asked. “I can’t make up my mind,” I re plied, "whether I would rather be a German princess or a British peeress or run my chances of being first lady of France. Then there are the jew els”— “Y'ou mistake me,” said John Jones. “I wasn’t asking about the titles and things; I referred to the men.” “Oh, the men! I hadn’t thought of that,” I said. “What do you wish me to do?” he asked, looking puzzled. "I don’t know,” I Baid, with a little nervous laugh. “I wish you to do something.” “Do you wish me to decide for you?” “Yes; anything." “It will do no good for me to decide unless you abide by my decision.” “I will.” “On your honor?” “Y'es, on my honor.” “You wish me to decide whom you are to marry. Is that right?” “Yes.” At that moment there was a rap at the door, and like a fool I cried, “Come in!” The door was opened, and—good ness gracious—there stood the count! “Pray excuse my trespassing,” he be gan; "the fullness of my heart”— lie had got thus far when—what do you think?—some one pushed against him, and, turning, he saw the prince. And, great Scott, the other two were coming down the corridor! The prince hud seen the count, the earl had seen the prince, and the general had seen the earl coming toward my suit. They hod followed one another. I looked at John Jones appealingly. "Gentlemen,” he said, “this lady has just made a very important decision— a decision that affects you all.” Oh, dear, how eager they all looked! “Looking at me, he asked, “Am 1 right?” and I answered “Yes.” I trust ed him. “She has decided to whom of nil her suitors she will give her hand.” (Each man’s eyes sparkled with anxiety lest some other thnn himself had been chosen.) “I have the honor to an nounce to you, gentlemen, that I am the favored man.” “You!” shouted the count and the general. The other two maintained n dignified silence. You could have knocked me down with a feather. I glanced at John Jones to know If this was in earnest or only to get rid of the others. lie understood my meaning and replied by a look, “I am in earnest.” They say that when persons are drowning all the acts of their lives pass in review before them. All the advantages I was giving up passed be fore me. And it is also said that a drowning person will catch at a straw. I caught at John Jones. “Kz this an affair comique,” asked General Du Pout, “or ze truth?” 1 nerved myself for an effort. Oh. how grateful I felt to John, and 1 said: “It’s the truth.” The four noblemen bowed very low, turned and went away. IIow embar rassing it must have been if they met at the elevator! When they had gone John turned to me and said: “Do you approve my course?” “Yes, 1 do.” “I release you.” “No you won’t,” I said. “I’ve had enough of all this. I wish it closed up at once.” t 1VU Ut VUCC I “Instantly.” John sent out for a clergyman, and we were married and took the train for this place. I always liked John, but somehow I hadn't thought of him for a husband. I suppose my mind had been on coronets. But John says he had loved me—just think—since I was a little bit of a girl. And I—well, I find it perfectly lovely to have a fine decided business man on whom to rely for a husband. But one thing, only one thing, troubles me. There is one regret that 1 cannot get out of my mind. The Countess Polinski would sound well. Mine, le General or probably Mme. le President would sound better, the Countess of Micleton, being English, you know, would sound better still, but the Prin cess of Fiegeuheim would be divine. And to give up all these to be plain Mrs. John Jones! _ Isn't it awful?__ (First publication Jan. 27.) Legal Notice. To Elizabeth Schellhase, Martha E.
