In Connection With the Attempt to
Murder Chief Brown.

ton with the recent attempt to murder
Chief of Police Brown, story of conspir-
acy of anarchists to murder Italian So
cialists of this place, was told to-day
The man who revealed the alleged plot
went to the house of the wounded chief
OF police with his narrative. His name
is withheld for prudential reasons. Accord
ing to this man, a full score of members
of the local Socialist society have been
marked for murder by the anarchists and
that only the prompt arrival of the police
at the Socialstic dance where the anar-
chists had started fight, prevented the
slaughter.
Two Italians, Innociente Bell and Dull
ic Beriucchi, the former said to be an
anarchist leader, were arrested to-day
for the assault on Chief Brown, making
nine now in custody Chief Brown is
considered by his physicians to be practi-

| 1t was Ischl, the fashionable summer

some months every year IN delightful
| little villa, that Emperor Francis Joseph
met the woman who was 10 be the COM
forter of his old days. He was sitting
with the empress in the imperial box OF
the little IschI theater. and the next act
was drawing toward its end when a lady
entered with much rusthng Of silk and a
sweet smile Of apology to those who had
to rise to make room for her in one Of
the first rows of the stalls. 1t was Kath-
arlnA Schratt. the pretty and tIlented
actress Of the Stadt theater in Vienna
Her friends say that she has not been
punctual a single time in all her life,
and being late on this night was lucky.
because it was thus she attracted the
emperor's attention.
He asked the attendant of the Court
Theatres, Baron Hoffman,, who was that
charming person.
Baron Hoffman, answered: Mime.

emperor asked again:
why is she not in the Burg theater?,
The empress concealed a smile and took
charmed the eyes Of her not too impress
slonaole lord. She saw her chance and
made use of It.
She had then begun to take a great de-
light in distant travel, and met with
much opposition from the emperor. He
did not like her to stay away too long.
and she had scruples in leaving him
alone. Besides. she was afraid of spend
ing 100 much money, because the en-
Peror spent none upon himself Perhaps
the thought had often crossed her mind
that II only the emperor showed some
weakness she would be better off her
self.
That evening she said that she had
rarely seen more lovely face. that Nine.
Schratt's smile had quite conquered her,
and before retiring to rest she had
long talk with Baron Hoffman,. to whose
presence Nine. Schratt was summoned
next day. Without more ado sbe was
appointed court actress of the Burg the

empress twice a week while the court re-
NAMED in Ischl.
When she returned to Vienna in the
autumn she was one Of the first TO beg

for the appointment to the Court the
alter. That audience was the departure

The emperor was standing at his little
table near the window, as usual She

raised, opened her mouth, shut it again.
and. with laughing eyes. broke down and
cried
Now I have forgotten all I was taught
to say to the very first word-how can
any one be so stupid?'' and then she cried
4 little. The emperor took her hand and
said:
Come, come: don't make yourself so
unhappy for so small a thing I have
given audiences under similar circum-
stances before. Perhaps 1 can help you
what you ought TO have said"
He made her sit down and sat opposite
and began the little speech he had heard
rom grateful actresses many times be-
