AMERICAN PRINCESS FLEES
WITH HER ROYAL HUSBAND
TO ESCAPE RUSSIAN THREA TS
By Prlrnte Leased Wire.
New York, August 1.—Prince Michael
Cantacuzene and the Princess Contacu-
zene were passengers aboard the Kais
er Wilhelm der Grosse. The princess
was Miss Julia Dent Grant, daughter
of General and Mrs. Frederick Dent
Grant, and grand-daughter of General
t,\ B. Grant.
This is the first visit of Prince and
Princess Cantacuzene to America since
their wedding at Newport in Septem
ber, 1899. Their two children. Prince
Michael Cantacuzene, 6 years old, and
the Princess Berthe, 2 years, have been
the guests of their grand-parents on
Governor’s Island since last December.
General Grant, commander-ln-chlef
of the department of the Atlantic, la
In Camp Roosevelt. Mount Gretna, Pa.,
and could not meet his daughter and
her husband, but Mrs. Grant and the
little Prince Michael and his sister wero
at the pier.
Rear Admiral Coghlan placed the
navy yard tug Powhattan at the dis
posal of the happy grandmother. The
tug. In charge of Lieutenant Cronin,
railed at Governor’s Island and carried
Mrs. Grant and her grand-children to
the pier In Hoboken. Mr. Horore, Mrs.
Grant’s brother, and her nephew board
ed a revenue cutter and steamed out to
meet the party.
The prince and princess were booked
on the steamer as both •'Piinzess In
Cantacuzene" and "Countess Speran
skly, nee Grant." The name of the
prince whs modestly, and perhaps pur
posely, omitted. As soon as the gang
plank was out Mrs. Grant, the young
Prince Michael and the nurse bearing
the Princess Berthe, went aboard the
ship, where followed a joyful reunion.
Mrs. Grant had not seen her daugh
ter since she went to Russia two years
ago, to nurse the princess through n
dangerous Illness. After spending a
long time on board the steamer, where
the custom ofllcers assisted In entering
two sroro Pioims of luggage, the family
group descended the stairs at the river
end of the pier anil went aboard the
Powhattan lying along side. -
The visit of the Cantacuzenes had not
been announced. There was a rumor
that the prince had decided suddenly
to leave his country on account of the
threats of tenants and the necessity of
keeping Cossack guards on the estate.
This he would not discuss.
When asked:
"Are you going back to Russia?" he
sold: 1
"Certainly.”
During their stay here Prince. Can-
taeuzeno and his *wlfe will visit New
port and Chicago, the home of the
princess* aunt, Mrs. potter Palmer.

Arnold s Knit Goods
for Infants
Years ago the Arnold Knit Goods became famous for infants. Its soft and
delicate texture won its way with mothers. Good sense in design as well
as good workmanship proved the talisman of success in infant garments
for the Arnold goods. But babies soon became children, aud it came to be
the most natural thing in the world to add article after article to children’s
wear, and as babies and children have mothers, articles for women, whether
mothers or not, speedily followed, until at the present time the line of
“Arnold” goods consists now of many separate and distinct articles, a line
in extensiveness equaled by no other manufacturer in the country. We’ve

The gauze isn’t stiff like starched goods, but elastic, soft and agreeable.
Arnold’s knit garments for ladies are as great a success as Arnold’s in
