NOBLE TITLES FOB CASH.
European Aristocrats Willing to Trade
with Heiresses.
From the -Veio York World.
Sas Francisco, Jan. 15.—The leading
newspapers of Germany, Austria, Holland,
Hungary, Belgium, and other European
countries contained advertisements last
month to “Gentlemen of position, noble
men, cavaliers, and officers of high stand
ing,’’ offering to >uppy California heiresses
worth **),UO3,OUO. The advertisement was
6igned “The International Bureau for
Private Transactions of San Francisco.”
One hundred and twenty-seven letters ad
dressed to the bureau were taken from the
San Francisco poetofflee last week by a man
who gave the name of Ludwig Vou Ro
ll ayer. The postoffice clerks asked so
many questions that the man became
alarmed and did not return for more letters.
He was traced to San Jose, where he has
been found and interviewed. His name is
Romayer, hut he has acquired fame and
misery under the alias of Ludwig Von
Romayer, bead of tba International Bureau
for Private Transactions. Romaver is a
small, sharp-eyed blonde, with a bristling
mustac ie, florid complexion and pompadour
hair. He appears to be 30 years of age,
dresses well and speaks rapidly, with a
strong German accent. -
Mr. Romayer assured the reporter that
his scheme of swanping dukes for ducats
was all a joke, but ho feelingly declared
that the funny aspect of the joke did not
appear with the hilarious distinctness origi
nally expected.
“Not long ago,” said Romayer, “when
the papers were full of the Hatzfeldt-Hunt
ington affair, I was visiting at the house of
some friends, prominent society ladies of
San Francisco. In a spirit of fun one of
the ladies proposed we should get up some
scheme to furnish ourselves with a little
amusement. There were seven in the
party, two married ladies and four single.
“The result of the discussion was that we
agreed to share the expense of advertising
in the papors of Austria and Gsrmany for
marriageable officers, mili ary or civil, who
might care to wed California hoiressos. We
rightfully believed that by stating that the
women hore were worth up to $20,000,000 it
would bring out applications from men of
high staudiug in nobility. We proposed
then, when we should bear from the parties,
to forward them photographs of American
actresses who are recognize! for their
beauty. If we received any photographs in
return, we proposed to have a good laugh
over the whole thing, and perhaps would
eventually have given correspondence And
pictures over to one of the daily papers,”
“W hat are the names of the ladies who
were with you ia the scheme?” asked the
reporter.
"Not for SIO,OOO would I divulge their
names,” replied Romayer. “I’m in trouble
now, and I propose to shoulder all the re
sponsibility and protect thorn; but again, I
swear that wo never, as it has been implied,
tried to make mouoy out of this affair.
When I received the first batch of letters
from Europe, about two weeks ago, I went
to the house of one of the ladies that we
might enjoy the circus. She seat messages
for the other ladies, who ail came around
that evening, but, woman-like, they each
brought from one to half a dozen friends.
It’s no wonder the thing leaked out.
We opened the letters —nearly one
hundred of them —from all parts of
Europe, i must tell you that my
friend there, to whom I sent $1 47 for ad
vertising purposes, did his work well. There
were three letters from princes and sixteen
from dukes. Barons and marquises were
innumerable, and so were those from physi
cians and aruiv officers. Tnero were only
three photographs, one from a broken-down
marquis, who claimed to bean estate-owner,
but who had lost considerable money on
English race tracks. Here is his picture,”
and Mr. Romayer handed over a photograph
of a handsome, dark-complexioned man
with a magnificent mustache and pointed
beard. The joker also produced a letter
written by the first applicant for an heiress,
but he carefully persisted in not letting it
go out of his hands and in not letting the
reporter see the signature. A passage or
two, howover, were read, as they remained
unhidden, and were written in poor English.
“Tne races in England have depleted my
estate, and I must have necessity for a very
rich woman,” the ma quis asserted.
Another photograph was that of a physi
cian. The accompanying letter in German,
translated by Mr. Romayer, assured the
reader that he could not possibly get along
with an American wife unless she had an
income of SB,OOO annually.
“He’s a big physician, well known in Ber
lin; I remember him well,” Romayer said.
The third photograph was that of a youth
ful but bright-looking man.”
“He’s a prince,” Mr. Romayer said, and,
translating again from a German letter
with the photograph, it was learned that
his highness would be satisfied with some
American woman with $250,000. He would
take less, however if she was pretty.
“How many letters have you got?” asked
the reporter, seeing a good-sized bundlo on
the table. Romayer smiled, and opening
the package showed some eighty or ninety
envelope-, ull addressed in different hand
writings to the International Bureau for
Private Transact.ons. They were of many
and queer shapes, a score of them being
sealed with red wax, on which was stamped
some coat-of-arms. An endeavor was made
to get some of those letters, or at least some
of the more prominent coat-of-arms, but the
mere suggestion blanched Mr. Rom&yer’s
cheeks.
“As it is,” said he, “I’ll not be able to set
my foot iu Germany for years. If I give
you letters for publication, I’m sure a dozen
uoblerneu would commit suicide from their
dis race, and another doze i would pack up
and got right out here to seek personal re
venge on me. That would bo just as bad.
In the old country it is not like it is here
with nobility. There all the counts do not
have the same style of crowns, and each
house can be recognized by its special kind.
It is the same with the different princes and
other titled gentry. I feel that I have done
these peoplo an injustice in causing them to,
write to mo here on this bnsiness, and I
don’t want to harm them any more if I can
help it. Besides, my relatives are in Gor
in any now, and I don’t want this little fun,
that I verv innocently got into, to hurt
them.”
Romayer then translated several more
letters, a great majority of which were
written in German. One was from a gentle
man born in 1833. who assured the bureau
that he was vigorous and in good health. He
did not want to marry a young girl, nor
did he care to bec->me the protector of a
widow.
"Send me,” he wrote, "a woman 35 years
of age, but she must have plenty of money.
I know she will like me, because I am of
even temperament, and having been in the
army I have a flue physique.”
A member of the German court did not
state the figure he believed his title of prince
should bring. His specifications were; “I
want my prospective wife to be a fine,
big woman, so that I may present her
to the court. She must also speak Ger
man.”
“Send rro further particulars,” was the
laconic missive from a Laron, who en
closed two foreign s amps for postage.
Another Baron wanted a wife with |500,-
Ho wrote:
"We will spend the winter in Berlin and
the summer on the sea.”
“Didn't any of the applicants ask for the
520,000,000 heiress!” inquired the re
porter.
"No,” replied Romayer, “the highest was
the £250,000 man.”
Mr. Romayer said that he did not pro
pose to go for the letters addressed to his
bureau now lying in the San Krancico
Postoffice.

SHE SAID YES BY TELEPHONF.
The Drummer was Busy, but He Got
Ahead of the Professor
From the Seio York Tribute.
There is a young lady living in Detroit
who for some time has been the recipient of
the attentions cf two young men, one a
professor ia the state university at Ann
Arbor and the other a traveling salesman
for a New York wholesale hardware house,
whose route extends through Michigan and
parts of Canada. One day last week the
New Yorker arrived in Detroit late in the
afternoon, and of course immediately
started making the rounds of the retail
hardware dealers, with the laudable pur
pose of selling each a good stock for the
winter before the representative of the
rival house should put ir. aa appearance.
H® had hoped to call oa the object of his
affections in the evening, but business was
good and 8 o’clock louni him busy trying
to induoo a Woodward avenue dealer to
take six dozen axes, four dozen grindstones
and a half carload of wooden pails.
At thisstageof the proceedings a younger
brother of the young lady dropped in to buy
anew jackknife, ad mentioned casually
that the Ann Arbor professor was up at the
house. It instantly occurred to the enter
prising hardware and cutlery salesman that
the professor had come for no other purpose
than to lay his heart at the feet of the young
lady he himself adored. For a moment
there was a struggle in his breast, but he
speedily got control of himself and decided
that he could not possibly leave the store,
as the dealer was just on the point of decid
ing to take the pails. But the thought of
giving up the lady who had been for months
constantly in his mind, waking or sleeping,
was unbearable. Ligut suddenly dawned
on him. Handing the dealer a circular ex
plaining the merits of his new double
bladed chopping-knive3, he requested the
use of the merchant’s telephone for five
minutes, stepped to it, and rang up the cen
tral office.
A moment later the telephone bell at the
residence of the young lady rang sharp and
decisive. The professor had been there for
an hour talking pleasantly of the grand
educational work they were doing in the
department of fossil ology |at Ann Arbor.
When the ball r,atig the lady’s father being
absent (ho was a physician), she excused
herself and went into the adjoining room to
answer it. The professor heard her stop to
the telephone and say “Yes,” make a short
pause, and say “Yes,” again. Than there
was a short pause, and he heard her say,
"Why—why—really, this is sudden.” Then
there was a still longer pause, and he Ireard
her say, “Yes,” softly, theu “Good-by,”
and then she hung up the receiver and
came into the room. The professor moved
closer to the fire and remarked that it was
a chilly evening, ami he thought it was
going to suow, and then resumed his talk
about the great work at the university.
Fifteen minutes later there was a riug at
the front door bell.
The lady answered it and a district mes
senger boy handed her a plain gold ring,
which she slipped on her finger and re
turned to the parlor. “Miss ,” said the
professor five minutes later, “I want to
ask you an important question this even
ing. Excuse me for putting it bluntly, but
will you be my wife.” But wo need not go
further with this. Two minutes later tee
professor went down the front step, shook
his fist at the telephone wire, and took the
8:45 o’clock train for Ann Arbor.
COLOGNE DRUNKARDS.
How Some Women Get an Idea of
Whisky and Water.
From the Boston Qlobe.
“Did you notice that woman who just
went out?” asked the clerk i t a Washing
ton street drug store of a Globe reporter
recently.
“Yes,” was the reply, “and a very pretty
woman she was, too.”
“Oh, as for that,” said the clerk, “she’s
pretty enough, but did you notice what she
bought?”
"Not particularly,” was- the reply of the
Globe man, “but I thought it was cologne
or perfume of some kind.”
“So it was,” said the clerk, “but she does
not buy the cologne for perfuming pur
poses, although she buys much more of it
than any other half-dozen persons who trade
at this store.”
What, then, does she do with it if she does
not use it for perfuming purposes?” ventured
the reporter.
“To get drunk on,” was the laconic an
swer.
“To get drunk on!”
“Yes, that’s what I said. You never
have heard of cologne drunkards then.
Well, that woman is a cologne drunkard,
and one of the worst of them, too. She
buy3 from one to two dozen of those long,
slim bottles of 4711 cologne every week,
and she takes it entirely herself.’"
“How does she take it?”
“Asa rule on lumps of sugar; at least I
suppose she does, for tuat is the usual custom
of cologne takers. They saturate a number
of lumps of sugar with the fluid and carry
them about with them. When (as in the
case with a whisky drunkard) they feel as
if they needed a drink they will take one or
two lumps of sugar, and letting it dissolve
in the mouth, they will get a sort of an
imitation of perfumed whisky and sugar
aud water. You know, of course, that the
base of the cologne is alcohol, and for most
people alcohol is altogether too strong to be
taken raw, and this is one of the reasons why
the *ugar is used.
“Another reason, I suppose, is because it
is easier to carry about and can be taken
without detection when on the sugar. Some
of the cologne users, and there are a great
many, can drink their liquid raw, and
those who have arrived at that stage can
drink pure alcohol or almost anything else
except, perhaps, sulphuric or some kindred
acid.”
“Are many men addicted to the habit?”
was asked.
“No. I have never heard of a single case
of a man taking coligne, but there are
many women who make a regular practice
of it, and a great many of the drug stores
have regular customers whom they supply
with different brands of cologne and per
fume. By far the greater portion of them,
, however, use this 4711, which is made in
Germany, and has a very fragrant, refresh
ing, and lasting odor.
“I have sat in the theater many a night
and watched elegantly-dressed ladies,
whose husbands hal perhaps gone out
between the acts, slyly open their reticules
and extract the sweet-smelling cubes of
sugar. After several of these had been dis
solved the lady would have what the boy3
call a ‘still’ on, that is, she would be sort
of quietly drunk, and her husband, who had
beeu out several times himself ‘to see a
man,’ would never notice it, as his own
libations had dulled his senses a bit.
“O, yes, it’s a great scheme for the
ladies, for it perfumes their breath as well,
as sets them full, but it would be far better
for their constitutions if they were to drink
whisky, brandy, gin, or au.v other kind of
liquor, as none is nearly so injurious in its
effect as is the cologne,”

The Tribulations of Salesladies.
Possibly the hardest worked class in
America are the shop girls in our stores.
On their feet for long hours, the constant
strain soon enfeebles the body and brings
on that sallow, careworn look so frequently
seen in the faces of girls and women com
pelled to labor behind counters for a sup
port. To such P. P. P. (Prickly Asb. Poke
Root and Potassium) is a welcome remedy,
as it is a great natural tonic and invigorator
and brings back the color to pale cheeks
and strength to tired limb*. It is the best
all round blood purifier, and if the blood is
pure and clean the body must of a necessity
derive great benefit and ultimate vitality
and energy. P. P. P. cures all blood dis
eases, such as syphilis, rheumatism, gout,
scrofula, and is a foe to that great human
demoralizer dyspepsia. It can be obtained
i of all medicine dealers and druggists.

South Carolina.
The South Carolina railroad commission
has completed its report of the earnings of
the roads for November, as compared with
the same month in the previous year. Earn
ings, November, 1388, were $730,447; No
vember, 1889, $868,223, showing a net in
crease of $111,057 —or per cent. Pas
senger earnings were $210,652, an iucrease
of 23% per cent.; freight earnings, $555,-

Sent to Jail for Unlawful Peddling.
“Pezer mizher et ego, I no sahl mo. O,
mizher, poze.”
It was an old Arab woman, ringing her
hands and crying in the barracks yester
day. Her basket of mirrors, scarfpins,
breastpins, and other articles sat on the
desk, and the officer stood by the woman as
Sergt. Reilly took her name. She kissed the
officers hands and got down to his feet and
tried to kiss them until she was comt>elled
to keep quiet. The woman was nearly
frantic with grief. She came along with the
officer all right until she saw the jail, then
she rebelled, and two men had to take her
in.
“Where are you from?” she was asked.
"Rabia, sair. Ma ’ome zhe ruziam. O
pe ze et ego bair te’m.”
“When did you come here?”
“Turdy. I ent know ’arm.”
“Come along. You have been peddling
on the streets without a license. We must
put you in jail,” said Sargt. Reilly, as be
directed the officer to t ke the woman out.
Boston is already reckoning on having the
President attend the G.A.B. reunion there in
August.
“Mvl How Bad you are;” said the basket to
the apple.
"I may be bad; but I’m not half so wickered
as you are!” retorted the apple.— Puck.

Sa*enty-Flve Cents On the Dollar.
The lost chance, but a stunner. The time
for moving of “The Famous” is rapidly ap
proaching, and I offer as a parting shot
twenty-five per cent, discount to every pur
chaser. Competitors (because of the low
prices lam selling before moving) try to
make customers believe that my goods aro
old, shop-worm, and what not. Such
talk any sensible man can see into. There
is not a fresher stock of Clothing in Sa
vannah. My goods are marked in plain
figures, and, as is well known, the lowest
prices always at “The Famous.” I offer,
you know, on the top of the low prices, a
discount of twenty-five per cent., not only
only on Clothing, out on Hats, Shirts, aud
on everything In the house. There is no
humbug or subterfuge about this. If you
buy S2O worth you will get a present of $5.
It is just the same as a present, becausa you
couldn’t buy the same amount of goods for
less than S2O anywhere. Don’t let slurs in
fluence you, but go direct to “Tbe Famous"
to make your pu chases, and you will save
money. 144 Congress street, corner Whit
aker.
