BY Associated Press.

| BY Associated Press.
| VIENNA, Oct. 2O-Regarding the con-
dition Of the emperor there is still GER
| tain amount of disquietude over the ulti-
mate outcome. The catarrh Is not di-
minishing and the strength of the patient
| has been reduced because of the lack OF
nourishment and sleep. The disease itself,
| however. is not causing any actual un-
easiness.
The main reason for solicitude is found
In the general condition Of the aged mon
arch. The efforts of the attending ply
sicians are being directed toward avert
ing in every way possible anything that
would tend further to reduce the patients
strength.
Everything is being done to supply the
emperor with fresh air and a miniature
garden composed of small pine trees has
been improvlsed in the imperial bed
room. The pines are said to have a bene-
fetal effect. An evaporator has been set
up in the room adjoining that of the en-
peror and vapors are waited into the sick
room
UP to the present time the emperor has
worn a military uniform, but on the ad-
vice of his physicians he is now clad in a
blouse which covers his chest completely.
On his head he wears an old fatigue cap
such as was the fashion in the Austrian
army several years ago.
Emperor Francis Joseph passed a
rather unsatisfactory night. He was dis
turbed frequently by fits of coughing,
which were followed by nervous restless
ness.
This morning he arose at his usual
hour, but was not able to attend the re-
ligious services that had been arranged
for today, and consequently the mass was
not said.
In spite of the Doctors advice the yem-
peror insisted on his civil and military
cabinets. Gen. Bolfras, his aide de camp,
stayed with him for an hour. At the end
Of this interview his majesty was some-
what fatigued.
The doctors found this morning that the
catarrh was slightly better, but the pa
tient still had spells Of dry coughing. Con-
siderable care is taken in conserving the
strength of the emperor.

Gently from Houston, Tex, to spend the

the dream she seemed to be struggling
for her life with heavily built man
of animal features he had her claspel
around the throat and was choking her
Try as she might she could not throw him
off, and finally she struggled to her feet
and dragged her phantasmagorial assail-
ant to the dresser, in the top drawer of
which was her husbands revolver. She
threw open the drawer, grasped the
weapon and placing the muzzle against
the temple Of the monster fired
The explosion of the revolver and the
pain of the wound awoke Mrs Brown
and her screams and the sound Of the
shot brought her husband to his feet
Screams from the adjoining room aroused
the house, and the police ambulance was
telephoned for. In the meantime the am
bulance from the emergency and general
hospital had been sent for.
