THE KEYSTONE OF EUROPE
Kaiser williams Great Position Reg

Alive to Situation.


The emperor will fulfill his dee-
tiny, no doubt, whatever his crit
les may say; but it is a little diff
cult for opponents like Herr Be
bel, or quiet observers, like most
Englishmen, not to wonder little
why he is not more nearly content,
soliloquizes the London Specta-
tor. He is already the first man
in the world, the one on whom
when anything happens every eye
is turned to see how he will take
it. He is nearly absolute within
his wide dominion, yet he is free
from that depressing kind of re-
sponsibility, that loneliness which
no man should bear, which
brushes and depresses autocrats.
like his Russian cousin. His do
minion, though not the largest, is
the strongest in the world, and
geographically so situated that
when he is fully awake sleep for
the remainder of mankind is near
" Impossible.
There is, and there has been in
history, no position greater than
his, save for moments in the lives
of one or two cOnquerors, whose
careers he declares, and quite hon
estly declares, that he has no wish
to emplate. The disturbance of
the world, the sense that nothing
is stable, which is the occasional
result of his sudden movements or
impulsive speeches, adds nothing
to his greatness. The habit of
emigration among his people does
not diminish either their number
or their prosperity, both of which
increase every yer. They lose them
selves, it is complained, AMONG
other peoples; but one result Of
that merging method" is that
they share the wealth of all PEG
pies, till it is no jest to say that
when a millionaire is mentioned
anywhere the chances are three to
one that his name will be a Ger
man one. They do not settle on
their lees, either, as the success
fulin other countries are apt to do,
but keep up a competition with
the world before which the world
is perceptibly inclined to shrink.
BY universal consent the Ger
man is the race at this moment
most vigorously alive, and in Ger
many the most living man is her
ruler by right of birth. Why,
then, should he provoke criticisms
like that of Herr Bebel, in which
the whole of Europe recognizes
as the Times does, "sOme truth?"
The emperor is the keystone of the
European arch, but it is not the
true function of a keystone to
make the arch it is intended to So
lidify periodically culver.

Mrs. Jones was married from the theater
in which she was then playing, and after
she left the company it was forty years
before she returned to that house. When
she went back. after that long lapse of
time, she did not find the slightest improve
ment, Forty years had passed, yet the
dressing rooms were still bare, without run
ming water and without ventilation to the
open air. Really, it is only during the last
ten years that any genuine improvement
has taken place in the dressing rooms
throughout the country.
Now it has become worth while for an
actress who is high enough up in the pro-
fession to play fairly long engagements to
take hangings and ornaments along with
her in order to give homelike appearance
to her dressing room. Some of the odd
timers" however, cannot be persuaded to
do this, because there is a superstition
among them that If you Ht up your dress
ing room prettily you will not remain long
enough to enjoy its home-like atmosphere
that the place in which you are playing
will not be a success, and the engagement
will be shortened.
Mrs. Fiske probably is the only player in
this country who is fortunate enough to
have a dressing room exclusively for her
own use. At her New York theater, the
Manhattan, the room, or rather rooms, re-
served for her are never occupied by any
one else. When she is away from town on
tour the rooms are locked and remain un-
occupied until her return.
The rooms combine the artistic and the
practical. Besides their primary purposes
they serve also as an office, where Mrs
F1ske dictates her letters and transacts the
round of business matters that comes be-
fore her In addition, therefore, TO the
dressing table, mirrors, makeup conven-
fences and other appurtenances that are
part Of every dressing room, Mrs. Fiske
has a desk, whose pigeonholes are filled
with manuscripts and papers, a letter file
and a desk telephone-an factors In the

an actress, but also a stage manager and

THREE SMALL BOYS
ARE BURIED IN SNOW

MINNEAPOLIS OFFICE,

Three young boys were injured yes
terday morning by the collapse Of a
snow house in the rear of the residence
of Anthony Sherman, 220S Sixteenth
avenue south, and one of them, George
]. Stotz, of 2200 Sixteenth avenue, has
not recovered consciousness.
The other two boys are none the
worse for their experience, although
they nearly smothered under sew
eral hundred pounds of snow.
The house had been built between
shed and high board fence, and thin
boards supported the roof, which con-
sisted of nearly half ton of snow
While the three boys were playing in
the house in the morning the boards
gave way and the snow fell upon the
boys.
Young Stotz was caught in a sitting
posture and was injured severely about
the head. The other boys were thrown
PROSTATE to the ground. A man no
ticed the accident, and calling for help
number of men and children were set
to work with shovels removing the
snow from the entombed children.
Clifford Lindquist was the first to be
removed. He was unconscious. but re-
Vived in short time. The second boy
was not injured, although he was
chilled and badly frightened
Young StotZ was the last to be re-
moved. He was unconscious and
bruised about the head. From the ap-
pearances he had made a struggle to
extricate himself and had been chilled
and shocked as we'll as being cut about
the head by a broken board. He was
taken to his home and physicians sum-
moned. The other boys were soon
about and yesterday afternoon were

Many Ailments-Ons Cause

have called these the inside nerves
Tor simplicity's sake. Their usual name
Is the sympathetic" nerves. Physicians
call them by this name because thew are
SO closely allied--because each is in such
close sympathy with the others. The
result is that when one branch is allowed
TO become impaired. the others weaken.
Ihat Is why one kind OF sickness leads
into another. That is why cases become
complicated" For this delicate nerve is
the most sensitive part of the human
system.

uncertainties of medicines IL not a good
reason to your mind why other kinds Of
treatment may have failed?

SAVED A TIDY SUM
Directors of CompanyReIeased

Judge Simpson yesterday fled a de-
cision in the case of w. s. Dwinneii, re-
ceiyer of the Minneapolis Fire and Marine
Insurance company. against several of
the directors, Leonard Pauile. c. j.
Sherer, G. ]. Heinrich. Frank Haywood.
c. H Spencer, W. R. Miller and Titus
Mareck
The case has been before the supreme
court three times and the receiver sought
TO hold the directors responsible because
il was asserted that some Of them had
made conditional subscription for stock
to the amount of s1ee.0 900, when in reality
they had not paid for il in full. although
the company in its advertisements as
serted that the stock was fully paid.
The court held that the policy holders
could not collect from the directors un-
less they could show they had placed re-
lance in the statement the stock was
paid up and had been induced to insure
in the company for this reason.
Only in the case OF Laura Z. Heatherly.
who had claim for 1880. and two or
three small marine risks could this re-
lance be proved, and the directors are
held to be liable only for these claims.
although there was a large number OF
claimants who sought TO hold the direct
ors liable for the fun amount OF their

Inside Nerves!
Only one out of every 9S has perfect
health. OF the 81 sick ones, some are bed
ridden, some are half sick, and some are
only dull and liStless. But most of the sick
ness comes from a common cause. The
nerves are weak Not the nerves you or
dinarily think about-not the nerves that
govern your movements and your
thoughts.
But the nerves that, unguided and I'M
known, night and day, keep your heart
In motion-control your digestive appa-
ratus-regulate your liver-operate your
kidneys. 'N-
These are the nerves that wear out and
break down.
1t does no good to treat the ailine or
gan-the irregular heart-the disordered
liver-the rebellious stomach-the de-
ranged kidneys. They are not to blame.
But go back TO the nerves that control
them. There you will find the seat of
the trouble.
There is nothing new about this-noth-
ing any physician would dispute But it
remained for DR.. Shoop to apply this
knowledge-to put 1t to practical use. DR..
Shops Restorative is the result of a
quarter century of endeavor along this
very line. 1t does not dose the organ or
deaden the pain-but ii does go at once
TO the nerve-the inside nerve-the DOW
er nerve-and builds it up, and strength

Arrest SpoiIs Scheme Whereby She

million dollars is the amount believed

L. Chadwick. Collector of Customs
Leach has so minutely traced the op-

four years that he is in a position to
know that the item saved from her

sum, the woman has just as safely
placed S150,000 worth OF Jewels.

tainly have placed Mrs. Chadwick, her

would then have been 100000. 1t was

another visit TO the city.
His subject next week will be 1.-THE

1t fully equals his former effort In inter-

purpose is not in the temporalities OF the
