Chief of Police. — 'RINCESS GIOVANNI By WILSON WATERS International llustrated News Staff Correspondent ELIABLE diplomatic rumors, Rfinkin; the young bachelor King Boris of Bulgaria with the charming Princess Giovanna of Haly in wedding plans for an early date bare a startling story of love and politica. Back in the years following the World War, when Stambulisky, a farmer-pdasant, rosc to power as Prime Minictor of Bulgaria, this drama took place. Boris, a mere youngster and new to the kingly throne, vacated by the abdication of his father, Czar For- dinand, was temporarily a pawn in the rough peasant’s hands. “The king must marry for moncy,” the late Promier declared. The crafty farmer-dictator fig- ured that Bulgaria's post-war pov- erty could be alleviated by the in- flux of an American girl-quecn’s millions. Boris, descendant of the Hohen- zollerns of Germany on his father's side and the great Housoc of Or- leans in France through his mother, had to bow meckly to the will and scheme of the home-spun premier.

As the bride-secking dalegation was riding the Atlantic waves on a steamship bound for New York, Stambulisky, tho master-schemer, was laid low by bullets. At the height of his power and {tyrannical cppression of the upper classes whom he mades to do man- val work and the military, which he tried to abolich, a conspiracy was hatched to kill him. Caught unawares, the old farmer fled with a few faithful followers to the wild mountainous country adjoining Scfia, the Bulgarian capi- tal. A troop of cavalry officers who were hard on his trail trapped the old plotter in his mountain lair. The end was as sudden as his rise to power. Eoris, practically a prisoner. in his palace, was overjoyed at the wel- come news. He was now free to scloct a Gueen of his ows choice.
