Orlow, doctor of philosophy, but whose death certificate bears the name of Johann Salvator, long mys- teriously missing Archduke of Aus- tria, is to lle in state in St. Andrew’s Church in 5th avenue. Some of his friends propose to keep his body in a vault so that a small birthmark on his right arm may establish his identity forever. As far as possible, it is stated, the funeral will be accompanied by the honors to which an archduke is en- titled. Miss Grace Wakefield, fifty-one year-old ward of the “archduke,” who committed suicide the day after his death, will be cremated with two parrots and a pet spaniel, drowned by her just before she killed herself. The Vicomte Henry de Fries, an Austrian nobleman and friend of “Or- low,” said he was convinced the dis- tinguished and courteous elderly man was the archduke.
