TITLE, CASTLE, ETC.
You have to be sorry for Miss
Marie Louise Freese, born to an ab
normally rich father and affianced to
a foreign title, whose wedding is
shortly to make Pacific coast society
stand upon its hind legs and quiver
with excitement
Marie's young man is Prince Stan
islaus Sulkowski of Austria-Hungary,
who has a job as a lieutenant
and who is a second son underneath
an elder brother who holds by prim
ogeniture all the Sulkowskis have
that's worth having.
Papa August Freese, American
from Bremen, who has title to whole
counties of land in Mexico, mines,
etc., is tickled most to death and
will buy Stanislaus a castle and give
him a fat marriage settlement
Mamma Freese is also well pleased.
She is a Mexican, with special men
tion of Castilian descent There's
so much Jap, Chinese, Indian and
miscellany in Mexicans nowadays
that special mention of a strain from
Castile, if any, is a good thing for the
social elite.
But we mention these matters
merely to" show that it is an ordinary
case of aspiring for title on the part
of good homely American people.
That which is most interesting is
Prince SulkowsM's estimate of
American girls. He says that Marie
is the ideal of American girls; that
"their beauty and dignity, then
splendid carriage and their knowl
edge of how to dress are not to be
I found among the girls of any other
part of the world.
Alas for poor Marie! Her old dad
from Bremen, hungry for title, and
her lover worshiping dignity, dress
and other things that won't stand
washing in the first real tests of life!
