PRINCESS REPENTS
... ■ Mi I ■ ' — CHANGES CAPTAIN FOR CASTLE. (Australian and N.Z. Cable Association.) VIENNA, July 10. A thirty-year-old royal romance has ended. Princess Louisa, daughter of the late King Leopold of Belgium, eloped with Captain Mattasich, an Hungarian nobleman, and was divorced from her husband, Prince Philip of Coburg. The. lovers have since been living at European watering places. Money was scarce, so Captain Mattasich advised his princess to dispute her father's will, which left everything to his morganatic wife., Baroness Vaughan. The suit failed, and the couple were poorer than ever. Tire princess recently appealed to her sister, Princess .Stephanie, formerly the Austrian Crown Princess, who offered to allow her sister, who is 64, to spend the rest of her life at a beautiful castle at. Oroszoar, in Hungary, on condition that she. parted from Mattasich. The offer was accepted, and other friends found a home for the' penniless Mattasich.
