surprise Far better things were expected OF
the brilliant author OF Samson" and lie
Voleur" who of all the younger French dra-
matists best knows how to make swift, tor
rental action eliminate in intensely thrilling
situations In Israel Bernstein has aban-
doned his former methods, and has sought by
means of academic philosophy TO attain the
same effects. IN this he has failed Israel
lacks action. None Of the characters Is sympa-
thettc.
The whole play turns upon the scene where
the Duchesse de Croucy says to her snti-Semitc
son, who Is about to fight duel with Gutlieb
an Israete banker, Your real father is not the
Due de Croucy, but Gutlieb" Young Croucy's
first impulse is to commit suicide, but his Jesuit
confessor, Father Sylvan. urges him TO become
a Trappist. He is about to do so, when his real
father. Gutlieb the Jew, appears. and convinces
him that as he lacks faith he ought not to Join
a religious order. The young man. now mad
with grief. poisons himself. This fiery young
anti-Semite, himself half Jew is, after ALL but
a weak, ni.nsy. embarrassing fresh water Ham
let. In spite OF the splendid acting of Nine Re
Jane, the play, which is likely TO be brought out
in the United States and England, is merely
tedious discussion of a problem which is never
solved.

Gilbert Stenger, who. by the light OF fresh let
tiers and diaries. has succeeded in giving a new
and an interesting picture of the brusque transit
ton between the fall of Napoleon and the restora-

Bourbons impartially. but gives striking ex-
amples OF their intense sehshness and greed OF
power and shows how. by their narrow minded
bitterness. they lost golden opportunity OF In

serious risks of a reaction at Constantinopie the

COMPLICATIONS FEARED.
Doubt an Paris Regarding the
Balkan Outcome.
Especial by French Cable to The Tribune
[Copyright 1908, by The Tribune Association


Paris Oct 1.-THE situation in the Near East.
which last week seemed in fair way toward
a pacific solution, has been compromised by
what is regarded at the Ministry Of Foreign At
fairs here as grave diplomatic blunder which
consisted In the publication, before communion
ton to the remaining four powers signatory to
the Berlin Treaty, of the nine points alleged to
be agreed upon by France. England and Russia
as the basis Of their joint platform for the pro-
posed conference. NJ. Pichon and NJ Iswolsky
both feel annoyed at this publication, which the
latter fntimates is not only premature. but in
accurate. NJ Iswolsky will start on Monday for
Berlin.
1t is known here that Emperor William has
given personal and categorical assurances to
Emperor Francis Joseph OF his moral and mill
tary support of Austria-Hungary in refusing any
compensation whatever to Servia or to Monte
negro. In short. Germany stands firmly behind
Austria Hungary and fully approves and sane
tions the dual Elonarchy's annexation OF Bos-
MIA and Herzegovina in spite CT the fact that
the possession and administration of those prov
inces were not due to conquest, but because
Austria Hungary was merely the mandatory of
the powers that signed the Berlin Treaty.
Meanwhile genuine sympathy is felt in France
for the moderation and patience shown by
Turkey She has appealed to the seven great
powers to protect the rights guaranteed to her
by their signatures to the Berlin Treaty, and
now she feels that the proposed conference viii
be q new instrument to strip her Of still more
territory and compel her to make compensations
to everybody while she herself is TO get moth
ing substantial In return.
The object Of the voyage of Achmed Ria
Pacha is 10 submit to Sir Edward Grey a full
and detailed statement of the cOmpensations
upon which Turkey insists. Naoum Pacha the
Turkish Ambassador at Paris, does not conceal
his bitter disappointment at present conditions
and at the spirit OF spoiation that seems TO sur
round the proposed conference, and he states
that the abrogation of the Capitulatfons that
secure to foreigners extra-territorial rights in
the Ottoman Empire cannot be regarded as
concession the part Of Turkey. because the
Turkish government maintains that when the
new constitution is in working order the capitu-
lations would naturally disappear, just as was
the In Japan. c. l. b.

pont's for Fat Folks.

Here are the don'ts for fat folks IT
they would avoid getting fatter dur
ing the lazy months: Don't drink wa
ter, don't eat rich foods, don't indulge
in spirituous liquors, don't eat candy,
don't lie in the hammock; in short,
don't take it easy or enjoy yourself at
all, but keep moving regardless Of wilt
ed collars and sopping shirtwaists.
Take long walks, eat starchy food,
drink little and sleep seven hours or
less-no more. If you don't fancy that
program, you can adopt the Detroit
Idea.' If reports from the Michigan
city be only half true, the Detroit
Idea" is certainly blessing to the fat.
In the first place, 1t is inexpensive;
second, it is perfectly harmless, and
third, no dieting is necessary-you can
eat what you like. Nevertheless, it
takes off the fat without causing
wrinkles, at the rate, it is claimed, Of
pound day. Here Is the recipe in
full: Step over to your druggist and
ask for one-half ounce of Marmola,
one-half ounce of Fluid Extract Cas-
cara Aromatic, and three and one-half
ounces of Syrup Simplex. Get the Mar
mOla IN the scared HdI-OuHce package
and mix it in with the other two at
home, as it is necessary this latter
should be fresh to get the best results.
Then take one teaspoonful after meals
and at bedtime until your fat is gone.
Simple isn't it? You can eat, drink
and sleep as you please this summer
and yet be Just as slim as you like
without any chance Of injury to your
health or your lazy bones.
