COURT "sIIS ON" BIG HAT

Henry Curtis Bennett, Bow street,
London, magistrate, tackled the matinee
hat question yesterday and decreed that
the management of a theatre has the
right to eject women patrons who refuse
to remove their "cart-wheel hesdgear."
The action had been instituted by
Mrs. Blsnche Eardley, writer, whe
charged Frank Curzon, msnager of thy
Prince of Wales The atre, with tech
nicel as ault. Mrs Eardley attended a
matinee wearing an enormous hat. A
man who had the misfortune to be seat
ed Just behind her found his view Of the
stage obscpred, and in'isted upon the
remov of what he sty led "the ridicu-
lous thing" worn by Mrs. Esrdley.
Tine latter, irrita.ed by the mans man
ner, refused. The manager invited Mrs
Eardley into the corridor for discus
sion ofthe matter, and when she remain
ed firm in her refusal to comply with the
practice of the theatre he would not per

matters presented to his judgment.
Menelik prided himself on being the
father of his people, and, like the patri-
archs of old, gave patient hearing to
their grievances at audiences to which
all his people were free to come. Dur
ing Menelik' 3 illness these audiences were
held by one of the regents. some
high official, and attended by Prince Lydj
Eyassu. On one occasion the patience Of
the official who had been intruSted with
the task of receiving the supplicants for
the emperorS intercession had become
highly taxed by one of the petitioners.
Unable to contain his Indignation, which
had attracted the attention of the heir
apparent. the Ras was about to pronounce
a punishment which was not altogether
in accordance with the merits of the
case.
AS he began to speak the little prince
and dismissed the assembly. Turning to
the official, he said that Menelik had
taught him not to give way to his
temper. and If he must not, neither
might the official Many little incidents
of a similar character are associated
with the emperor's grandson. who. by
his original and independent behavior
has made himself very popular among the
people of the capital. and. in fact, among
all with whom he comes in contact.
In appearance Prince Lydj Eyassu
strikes an appealing note. He is Well
built, supple, tall, though somewhat
slight. HIS features are regular and
show but little trace of the negroid ele-
ment and he is far fairer in complexion
than his grandfather. Many Abys inia rs
possess delicate features. with small
hand and almost dainty feet, the result
of an Arab strain in their descent. The
heir apparent is no exception to this
racial distinction, and. in his case. it ma
be traced to the fact that his grand
mother came from a district famous
throughout Abyssinia for the fair COM
pleXion of its women. The Empress Taitu
comes from the same district, and was
remarkable for her beauty in early youth.
Advancing years have rather encroached
upon her physical charms. while her
niece. the Princess Romantic. shows no
indication of anything but a strong
negroid descent, as the result of her re-
lationship with the Emperor John.
Women do not as rule play an i'm
portant part in Abyssinian affairs. but
if Prince Lydj Eyassu comes in for his
own it is not improbable that his child-wife
for the next few years will receive more
attention than she will care for. Even
if the Empress Taitu is compelled to ac-
knowledge the accession of the heir APP
parent and withdraw to the comparative
retirement of the position of an empress
dowager, her majesty may be relied upon

TO intrigue actively against the two little
people who have displaced her. Since
Menelik was incapacitated by stroke
of paralysis the policy OF the Empress
Taitu has aimed at the consolidation
of her interests, both at court and in the
provinces. She has been remarkably sue
cessful in her plans. for she has contrlNed
to surround the emperor at Adds Abepa
with officials who are pledged to support
her interests, while in the provinces snf
has brought about the effacement of all
princes who we're inimical to her.
On the other hand, Menelik has done ms
best for his grandson, and with view
TO checking the Vaccinations or the
empress. he appointed. during one or ms
rare lucid intervals. council or regents
composed of two of his strongest support
ers and the Empress Taftu, in addition
nominating one of the regents 10 De

upon the activity of the empress mas had
no very material result. since she was
able to make hel own authority prevail
wherever a difference of opinion marked
the counsels of the triumylrate.
81
The climax of this situation arrived
when the emperor. at last years Easter
gathering of the princes and people OF
the land. proclaimed his grandson as his
heir. and compelled all to swear allegi-
ance to him. The empress circumvented
this measure by causing the little princes
name to be omitted from the proclama-
ton, and, in its place, to appear a word
that meant simply obedience to the gem
eral kith and kin CT the emperor. Since
that date the marriage between the en-
perors grandson and the empress niece
has taken place. but undoubtedly IL was
des gned by the empress as a bold bid
for public favor.
On the whole, too. the marriage was
well received, in the north as well as
in the south. since it was understood TO
have been given the emperors sanction.
and the Abyssinans. irrespective OF tri-
bal disagreements, have been united IN
their affection and loyalty to their SOW
ereign. Unhappily. after the alliance was
solemnized Menelik's condition took
turn for .-e worse. From the fact that the
empress troops have already defeated
those of one of the northern princes
1t is to be feared that Taitu has placed
her own interests before those of her
niece or of her husbands grandson. and
she is now engaged in making bold bid
for her eventual supremacy. Under the
prevailing conditions, too. it Is not inn
probable that she will succeed.
