He and Prince Elitel Frederick are the young duke’s intimate friends and no one seeme to know precisely why the crown prince was absent. The castle was altogether too small to accommodate half the number of guests, so they came in automobiles or carriages from country places in the neighborhood. The imperial party stayed over night on the imperial yacht Hohenzollern. The civil ceremony took place in the wide hall of the castle. Then as many of the royal guests and their suites as could be given space went to the little chapel upstairs where the religious rite was performed. A school and business holiday is being obesreved throughout this minia ture state, and large crowds of the bride and groom’s subjects gathered and gave them an enthusiastic greet ing when they appeared together on the balcony of the castle.

New York, Oct. 11.—The New York cable regarding the offer made by one of the wealthiest men of that city to present $50,000 to Dr. Behring, if he would make known his treatment, cure of consumption, has excited great inter, est in Paris, says a cable dispatch from Paris to the Herald. A Herald cor respondent called on Dr. Behring who said: “I may say at once that I could not entertain an offer of that kind in such a form. "I ha\e made it a principle never to accept any aid of this kind from pri vate individuals.” “It would be ai.ither thing if the offer came from the /American govern ment or from some organized scientific institution, and was made in recogni tion of the services I have rendered to science and humanity by the discovery of the serums, against diphtheria and tetanus. It is, however, a mistake to think I have kept my discovery a se cret. This is not so; but I have cho- ••n and will continue to choose the persons to whom I make the communi cation.
