around the hall.
Automobiles and other vehicles gave It
a wide berth, for the horse apparently
Imagined It was in a race. Its speed In

PHILADELPHIA
"YOU CAN RELY ON LEWANDOS"
PRINCE AND HIS BRIDE
OFT" FOR HOT SPRINGS
Parental Forgiveness Gained by
Elopers, Now on Their Wed
ding Journey.
Prince Ludovlco Plgnatelll d'Aragon
and his runaway bride, who was Miss
Huth Morgan Waters, society girl of this
city, New York and Palm Beach, are on
r their wedding journey to Hot Springs,
wlillo Philadelphia fashionables, who
knew them well, are talking of the elope
ment as they seldom have occasion to
talk.
In their words, It Is one of the "real
romances of real life," this marriage of
a nobleman, who claims relationship with
the King of Spain, to a beautiful young
woman who flew In the face of her par
ents' wishes to become his wlfo and then
so smothered parental opposition with
smites that fnther nnd mother say to in
terviewers today:
"Tho young peopU loved each other so
much that we Just had to let them
marry."
Theso society folk "ore recalling, too,
that one of tho Princess Plgnatelll's sis
ters married a nobleman nnd that her
other sister mado a runaway mating
two circumstances that Huth Waters,
who Is Just 22 years old, combined yes
terday. Miss Dorothy Waters , eloped
with Benjamin K. Gatlns, n young New
Yo'K broker llvlna In Hempstead, L. 1.,
In 1D12. Tho princess' half-sister,, Miss
Ellen Nixon Wain, married Baron Jac
ques de St. Marc. Tho father of tho
baroness was tho lato Nlcholns Wain,
from whom the present Mrs. Waters ob
tained a divorce.
It was at tho homo of her sister, tho
Baroness de St Marc, that Prince Plgna
telll and Mlsa Huth Waters met.
Then of the Prlnco himself thcro Is much
to bo said. Several years ago he stood
sponsor for nn announcement that ho was
to marry Miss Mary Duke, daughter of
Benjamin N. Duke, a wealthy tobacco
manufacturer. Miss Duko nnd her mother
at that tlmo emphatically denied tho re
port, and last week announcement was
mado of tho engagement of Miss Duko to
Anthony J. Drcxel Blddle, Jr., of this
city.
The Prince, who Is 37 years old, wns
born In Biarritz, France. Ho claims re
lationship with King Alphonso. Tho
Almannch do Gotha, under the family
heading of Plgnatelll, gives no record of
Prlnco Ludovlco Plgnatelll d'Aragon. It
,has been alleged that the Prince's real
title Is Prince Plgnatelll d'Aragona nnd
that tho Arngona comes from the name
of nn unimportant town In Sicily. Ac
curdlnely. It Is said that whatever rank
tho Prince has ls not Spanish, and thnt
Prince Plgnatelll has no relation with
tho Spanish Aragon.
In 1912, the Prince came to this country
from Europe. He wns detained at Ellis
Island for a short time, on tho ground
that he had been accused of standing
behind a gambling house in Paris. He
lins contributed to the maintenance of
Long Island hamlets by paying fines for
automobile speeding.
He attracted considerable notice when
he was reported to have attempted sui
cide In his apartment In Paris, after. It
was s,ald, he had been Jilted by Miss
Duke. A revolver bullet was removed
from above his heart, and his life wa3
saved after several months In the hospi
tal. At another time he was involved In
a quarrel In the lobby of a New York
hotel over n newspaper report that he
had gone horseback riding with one girl,
and after being thrown from his mount,
sought sympathy of another.
Among his various distinctions, Prince
Pignatelll is credited with belngthe first
man In America to wear a feather In
his hat
G. Jason Waters and hla family lived
in the Flanders Hotel, when their resi
dence was In this city. After leaving
here they divided their time between New
York and Lakewood, taking a summer
home In Red Bank, N. J.

SUFFKAdlSTS WON'T DISCUSS
"PETTICOAT 00VEKSMENT"
Refuse Challenge of Mrs. O. D. Oli
phant, "Antis " Lender.
ATLANTIC CITY, May B.-Leadlng suf
frnglsts todnv lefused to discuss the
"petticoat government" Issue raised by
Mrs O. D. Ollphant, one of tho ablest
peakers from anti-suffrage headquarters,
at Trenton, In n stirring Bpccch before the
Rotary Club last night. It has been In
tended that earnest advocates of tho vote
for their set should be present to chal
lengo any arguments the "nntls," might
advance. But tho "pros" nt the last min
ute refused to meet the "antls" and the
latter had a field day.
What particularly nngcis the suffrage
leaders Is that tho husbands of ninny of
them were subjected for two hours to the
heicslos of tho other side, and Infected
with the germ of doubt. Fully half of tho
household campaign work will have to be
done over again. All over the city to
day men who have been filendly toward
the votes for women Issuo are talking of
the possibility of "petticoat government."
The "ant!" speakers asserted that If suf
frage succeeds In New Jersey, the women
who were leaders In ndvanclng the cause
will Insist upon being political bosses with
nice offltes.
"Absurd," exclaimed the suffragists
this morning. "They challenge our sin
cerity." Former Congressman J. Washington
Lobuc, of Philadelphia, was right in the
mitlst of tho anti-suffrage attack. Ho
mado a speech also, but carefully evaded
the burning Issue.
NEW RULE FOR "JITNEYS"

t
"Jitney" drivers thnt operate their em

morning, according to a notice Issued by
Superintendent or Police Robinson today
The police were ordered to stop all
drers not displaying their license
badges. Every driver without a license,
that does not own the car he Is operating,
will be arrested.
Under an not of the Legislature, passed
June 7, 1913, a chauffeur Is required to

inently on his outer clothing. Many fall
to do this, making It difficult for the
police to distinguish between the owner

Oculist at least oncoii year.
