PRINCES^ FOUND
World-Wide Search Locates
Woman in New York.
Czar of Russia’s Agents Locate Wife
of Officer in His Own Imperial Cav
alry—She Wanted to Be an
Actress.
New York. —Princess Olga Golit
zine, wife of Prince Andre Golitzine,
an officer of the czar’s own imperial
cavalry, who has been missing for
three months, was found in New York
by the Russian secret service in a
world-wide search. The princess has
gone home. She had, while here,
been in the care of Pierre de Routsky,
acting Russian consul general.
The princess, who is practically pen
niless, having pawned her jewels in a
mad flight to various cities of the
east, was located in the Holland apart
ments, 66 West Forty-sixth street.
Born a princess of the house of
Tcherkasskia, a family reputed to be
as old as the Romanoff dynasty, and
married at sixteen into the house of
Golitzine, the vivacious Olga left the
pomp and ceremony of the Russian
court for a career on the stage in
New York city. She wanted to be
an actress, but in the last month
her dreams have been shattered. Aft
er a flight across Europe, which
proved the platitude that fact is al
ways robbing fiction, she must, as she
confessed, return across the Atlantic
at the urgent demand of the Russian
government
Reports that the companion of the
princess on her hurried flight from
Russia was a well-to-do American led
to rumors that she had eloped. He
passed much time with her on ship
board and at the New Willard hotel
during her stay in Washington, whith
er she first journeyed after landing,
it was said. The noblewoman insisted,
however, that her only companion had
been an English woman, who had as
sisted her in leaving her native land
after being told of the princess’ de
sire for freedom and a career on the
stage in America.
Continental society, already aston
ished by her appearance early last
winter on the stage of the Imperial
theater, in St. Petersburg, was shock
ed when it was learned that she had
disappeared. The czar, angry because
of her theatrical debut, had ostra
cized her from court, but when she
disappeared that mysterious system
which covers Europe like a net, the
Russian secret service, was set at
work.
For weeks the efforts of the secret
police were of no avail. Prince An
■ dre, who she says stormed so vio
lently when she appeared on the
stage that ho forced a separation,
was heartbroken, she asserted. Final
ly, a few weeks ago, the czar's agents
discovered that she had been at the
New Willard hotel in Washington-
After a call from an attache of the
Russian embassy there she fled to
New York, and stopped for several
days at the Knickerbocker hotel.
Again she was discovered, she said,
and took an apartment at the West
Forty-sixth street address. But her
flight availed her nothing, and, practi
cally without funds, she agreed to
go home.
Acting Russian Consul de Routsky'
says that the father of the princess
j was an officer in the Imperial guards
j and one of the proudest and oldest
! families in Russia.

BALKS AT SIGHT OF FIANCE
Girl, Arriving on Steamer, Refuses to
' Wed Man—Not Up to Speci-
, fications.
Philadelphia.—More than 1,000
steerage passengers were landed at
the municipal pier from the Italian
liner Napoli, from the Mediterranean
ports. Nearly all came from Naples,
Genoa and Palermo. There were only
twenty persons in the 1,089 aliens, in
cluding both cabin and steerage pas
sengers, that could speak a word of
English. Eight girls were married on
the pier. It was expected that nine
weddings would be celebrated, but
one girl. Miss Josephine Cartolita, re
fused to marry Joseph Digiorgio, who
iock spied the red petticoat and made I
four leaps toward it. In the middle of
the fifth he lowered his head and
struck the woman and tossed her light
ly in the air. She came down with a
dull splash in the tub of water.
' The angry husband was on his feet
in a minute. In another he had bis
shotgun in hand and he gave chase
after the herd of cattle and their
drover. The latter took refuge behind
a friendly barn some distance down
the road. Then he saw a cloud of dust
behind his flying herd and the angry
husband giving chase with his gun.
He just leaned up against the friendly
old barn and said to the neighbors be
tween his sobs: "Please excuse the
steers."

represented himself to be a banker
and steamship agent. When she
walked down the gangplank the in
tended husband was on the pier to
receive her. He introduced himself
as the man with whom her parents
had been in correspondence, and that
he was prepared to have the nuptial
knot tied at once. “You do not come
up to the specifications,” she told
him. “You do not look like a brok
er.” The man insisted that he was
exactly as stated in the correspond
ence, but to no avail. The girl walked
one way and he in an opposite direc
tion, the girl indignant and the man
disconsolate.
KISSING IN THE PARK IS 0. K.
Small Boys Who Interrupt Are Ex
tremely Mean, Says Philadelphia
Magistrate.
Philadelphia, Pa.—The annoying of
sweethearts will be stopped, and Phil
adelphia will have in Fairmount Park
the greatest spooning ground in the
world. And, in his efforts to put Fair
mount Park on the map of paradise,
Capt. Duncan, chief of the park guard,
will have the co-operation of the city
magistrates, as an incident showed.
Magistrate Morris, in whose court
two boys were arraigned on charges
of having “dogged” or annoyed cou
ples in Fairmount Park, took the
same view as Capt. Duncan. “I’m
against flirting or misconduct in the
park,” said Capt. Duncan, “but I am
not going to see real lovers annoyed
or abused. The shady nooks and
quiet spots in the park offer ideal
places for love making, and as long
as young persons do not overstep the
bounds of propriety I am going to en
courage making the park the world’s
best spooning place. This business
of frightening sweethearts just when
they are engaged in kissing is the
meanest trick I know of."

A thorough search was made but no
