I argued to myself that they had no better lungs than I had, so in I went. And I came up very much alive, too.” Sir Claude is one of the few men living who have survived thee ross- living who have survived the cross- ing of the North Sea in a balloon, or to tell the tale of their escape from the coils of a pytlmn. He. is the only European who has ever swum the narrow gut of the First Cataract of the Nile. In the matter of broken bones alone he holds a record. He had two leg bones fractured in a balloon accident; three arm bones while hunting; three ribs by a fall during a steeplechase. and another by a more prosaic cab accident. not to mention V'aiinus fin- gers bmken by boxing or from kicks b3 horses. There is no member of Debrett who enjoys more good luck that Sir Claude Champion de Crespignj‘, who was an interested spectator at the Boxing Test in London the other day. He is credited with possessing more lives than the average oat. Eleven years . ago the Archduke Franz himself decided to marry the woman he loved, the Countess Sophia Chotck, now known as Princess of Hohenberg, although by so doing he had to renounce the right of any children of the marriage to succeed to the thrones of Austria and Hun- gary. The late Archduke Henry marâ€" ried Leopoldine Hoffman, a member of the company of the Karl Theatre in Vienna, although the marriage was forbidden by the Emperor, while in 1889 the Archduke John married an actress, Milly Stubel, in London. He renounced his rank, took the name of John Orth, and was last heard of ‘serving as a sailor on board the Mar- gerita, a ship that disappeared on a voyage from .Buenos Ayrcs to Callao. The eldest daughter of Duke Carl Theodor, Princess Sophia of Bavaria, made also a pure love-match by marrying the Count Torring-Jetteno bach, a scion of an old Bavarian no- ble house, but not of royal blood. In Bavaria we have an instance of a royal prince having made two mor- 'ganatic marriages. Prince Ludwig, the elder brother of the royal oculist. Duke Carl Theodor married first in 1859 an actress, Fraulien Mendel, who was created Baroness Wallersee, and, after her death in 1891. Fraulein Barth, who was given a patent of no- bility under the ‘style and title of Frau von Bartholf. He had, before marrying, also to resign his rights and patrimony_ to his younger hrother; “The old man was cute, wasn’t he?” Several German princes have mar- ried women of no rank. '1‘here was Prince Adalbert, who was commander- in-chief of the German navy at the time of the Franco-Prussian War. and who, in 1850, married Terese Elser, a well-known dancer. Then there was Prince Augustus of Prussia. _whose morganatic wife was the popular play- er, Marit Arndt, aterwards created Baroness Prillwitz. ' The death of the archduke has never been definitely established. and from time to time rumors haxe been circu- lated that he is still living In fact. it is said that he is lixing on one of the South Sea Islands with his ec- centric brother L11uis,\\lm spends practically his whole life on a small island in the Ionian Sea. This last theory is strongly held by the Arch- duke Leopold Ferdinand, another Austrian prince who mairied an ac- tress and renounced his royal rights. The archduke is a naturalized Swiss citizen, and lives, or at anv rate was living until a 5111111 time ago at Lu- eerne under the 111111111. 111 \‘1'111111111. Many Princes Have Renounced Their Ranks In Order to Wed. The fact that" the Archduke Ferdi- nand Karl of Austria, nephew of the Emperor of Austria and brother of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand Heir Presumptive to the throne, has re- nounced his 'rank in order to marry‘ Bertha Czuber, a. most beautiful wo- man whom he met. at a ball in Prague some years ago. adds one more to the long list of princes who have obeyed the dictates of Cupid in defiance of the state rule that royalty shall only mate with royalty. h..- ROYAL LOVE MATCH ES.
