London. March 15.-The final crisis in

II may be said IN general terms that

Europe continues hopeful.
There has been further evidence within
the past few DAYS OF the view expressed
In these dispatches that Austria would
welcome any indiscTetiOn on the part OF
Servia, which would give her a moral
excuse for d temporary occupation" OF
the little kingdom This. OF course. would
mean the end Of Servia. for the world
knows exactly what temporary military
occupation by Austria really means.
Austria already is forcing Servia's hand
by declaring the latter's pacific note 10 the
powers unsatisfactory and ambiguous.
and demanding direct news on all the
issues after Servia has made her pa
cific intentions more implicit
Servias answer 10 this Is expected on
Tuesday. Her rulers now understand the
Austrian attitude perfectly. and Il Is
not TO be expected that they viii be so
fooIhardy as 20 play into Austria's hands

SHAKESPEARE DRUGS DEADLY
Writer Discusses Dramstist's Knowl-
edge of Poison and It's Effects.
Denied that He Had More Extensive
Medical Information Than HIS
Contemporaries.

London. March 13.-The pOisOns men
toned in Shakespeare's works are the
subject Of an article by DR.. Cartaz IN the
Revue Scienthque- The extensive medi-
icaI knowledge which Shakespeare IS sup
posed 20 have possessed and which has
been advanced by the Bacon the0~ets as
a proof in support OF their contentious
has often attracted the attention Of inves-
tigators. but Dr. Cartaz seeks 70 prove
that Shakespeare knew no more than his
contemporaries. and was under the
same NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. as they were re-
garding the potency Of certain philtres
and poisons-
When. for example. the ghost OF Ham
let's father says that Claudius poured
the Juice OF cursed hebenOn Chenbane)
into the porches OF his. ears" IL should
be pointed out that this Juice could not
possibly penetrate the drum OF the ear.
But the belief in the deadliness Of poison
thus introduced into the system was so
general at the time thai Ambrose Pare
was accused Of killing In this manner
King Francis II Of France. although IL
is now certain that the King died Of
meningitis. caused by Inflammation OF
the internal ear.
Then. again. when Friar Lawrence IN
Romeo and Juliet gives Juliet the Do
ton that shall make her body stif.
stark. and cold. appear like death il
can only have been. Or. Cartaz considers.

mandragora root The latter enjoyed
during the Renaissance a great vogue
But experiments have shown that the
awakening nom its effects is accompa-
MED by violent nausea. so thar juliet
would have met her lover in a far from
poetical condition.
Also the duration Of sleep produced by
narcotics never approaches forty-two
hours Dr. Cartaz thinks that Friar Law
renee added hypnotic influence 70 his
potion As for ROmeo's poison, OF which
the apothecary says that IL he had the
strength Of twenty men Il would dispatch
him straight" the only solution is that II
was aconiJe. as Shakespeare elsewhere
calls the poison Of Jealousy as powerful
as aconite. Or perhaps IL was one Of the

SEIZED By DIAMOND FEVER
German Southwest Africa Filled
with Dangerous Adventures.
Many New Companies Are Formed on
HaEy Prospecting and Fabulous
Prices offered.

Berlin. March Is-Advices received
from German Southwest Africa shows
that a tremendous diamond fever has
taken hold OF the colony. Crowds Of ad-
venturers Of a dangerous type are gath
ering around the diamond fields and
speculations are the order OF the day
Plot certificates sold by the official col
oniaI company for SIS are resold again
and again for from $500 70 $3.50. and Il
Is declared that the company has given
out more plot certificates than there are
real diamond claims. Five-sixths Of these
certificates may prove absolutely worth
less so far as diamonds are concerned.
Many new companies are formed based
on very hazy prospecting. probably in
more than one-half the cases without any
honest prospecting at all Land that
cost $50 a square yard three years ago
is now sold from twenty to fifty times
that sum- Labor formerly obtainable at
s. a day now commands $ or s..
Yet the output OF diamonds is only
about 1000 carats for the whole field
This Is probably due TO the fact that
there is no regular control. The work

steal two-thirds Of the finds. Thus from
1900 TO 5000 carats have been disposed OF
70 Illicit diamond buyers.
Another serious social danger Is the
manner in which the natives are engaged
for work. This amounts almost tc slav-
cry, lnasmuch as the nEdves are sold and
resold. and commission taken for pro-
curing them Their wages and treat
ment are satisfactory enough, but the ma
tives are now unwilling TO work at any
other mining industries for the old wages
or in fact. at wages as they can hope for
greater pay in the diamond fields.
