30 YEARS' ENGAGEMENT.

After an engagement lasting 30 years Baron Axel de Tarns, says <i Stockholm telegram to the 'Petit Journal,' was married lately to Mile. Hella Gyllstroem. In 1882 the bride was one of the stars of the Stockholm stage, and the baron, then a young army officer, fell in love with her. His family, however, refused to give their consent to the marriage, and Mile. Gyllstroem left Sweden. Six years later, his parents having died, the young baron determined to go in search of his fiancee. He visited all the principal cities in Europe in turn, and then learned that she had left the Continent and was living under an. assumed name. After going to America he at last found her in Melbourne and brought her back to Stockholm for the marriage.
