Europe's Oldest Royal House.


The royal house Of Saxony is the oldest
in Europe. There has been no break in
the succession since 1859, and it has pro-
duced many eminent men. They have
been liberal patrons of art, music and
literature, and some Of them have had
famous military careers.
King John, grandfather of the present
king. was literary man. He translated
Dante's Divine Comedy into German,
and all SaXons are proud of that fact.
He printed several volumes OF verses and
essays. and the people rank him as one
OF the most eminent bards OF the nine
teenth century, although none OF them
has ever read his writings.
The late king, who died in 1904, was
| more OF soldier than poet and dis.
tinguished himself In the Franco-Prussian
war.
The kings sister. Princess Matilda. Is
! unmarried and looks after his household.
| She has quite a reputation as an artist.
Another sister, the Princess Josefa. is
the widow of Archduke Otto of Aus
tria. Her son. Karl Franz Joseph. is
second In line OF succession to the Aus
trian throne.
Her brother, Georg, commander-inchief
+, OF the Saxon army. Is fine soldier.
| Another brother. Prince Max. left the
army in 1888 to become Catholic priest.
| Since 1900 he has been professor OF
canonical law and liturgics at the Do
/ minican University OF Fribourg, and is
] the author of several theological works.
He was educated at Leipzig University.
King at the Opera.
The present king takes quite as much
interest In art and music as his prede-
cessors, and encourages every movement
that is likely to promote scientific re-

search. He makes it a rule to visit the
many museums of Dresden frequently
and is a liberal patron of the opera,
which is quite as much an affair of state
as the army or the judiciary.
The Dresden opera house Is no so
large as those of other European capitals,
although 1t will seat 1000 people com
fortably. 1t was built by the government
and is under government management,
with subsidy sufficient to cover al def
cts.
The management does not seek high
priced prima donnas and tencrs, but
prides itself upon presenting German
opera in the purest and most perfect
manner. AS much attention Is given to
the humblest member of the chorus as
to the artists whose names appear in the
program.
Dresden has been the chief seat of Ger
man opera since Carl Maria Won Weber
came here as director of the opera house
in 1916 All OF his operas were first pre-
sented here. with Henrietta Sontag TAX

Weber died in London, however. where
he had gone to conduct q presentation
Of his operas "Oberon" and Der Fret

Wagner's Early Struggles.

Richard Wagner came here in 1S40. He
was a native Of Leipzig but had lived
in Munich. Paris. Frankfort and other
cities without recognition. He gave nlu-
sic lessons, played In bands and orches-
tras. wrote music for all sorts Of instru-
ments. arranged and copied scores for
orchestras and military bands, and did
all sorts of hack work to gain a scanty
living.
And most of the time he didn't have
enough money to pay the rent of a piano
His first opera. "Rienzi." was produced
in Dresden In lS4l, under his own lead

WAR
ISNO BLUFF

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. ~. - The
FIRST gun in the contemplated sugar
war between members Of the Spree
kcls family was fired yesterday with
the arrival OF the wcll.known Ameri.
can ship Lyra from Yonkers. N. Y.
bringing to the Federal Sugar Rein.
Ing Company sugar amounting to TO-.
100000 pounds. The arrival of the
vessel from her trip around the Horn
signifies the beginning of the contem.
plated war between the Western
Sugar Refinery. controlled by Adolph
Sprcckc's and John d, Spreckels. and
the Federal Refining Company, con.
trolled by Claus A. Spreckels and Ru.
dolph Spreckels.
The latter corporation is one Of the
largest sugar refining companies in
the world. and II present plans do not
miscarry will fight the Western Sugar
Refinery to a finish.
When the news first leaked out that
Claus Sprs ckels intended to precipi
tate a sugar war by shipping the
large cargo to the Pacific Coast by
way of the Straits Of Magellan on the
steamer Lyra, It was said by the trust
that Spreckels intended only to bluff
his brother, John d. Spreckels, and
that the shipment was not made with
any idea of commercial profit. How.
ever, according to statements made
by Claus Sprcckels upon his arrival
from the East, he told the press that
he intended to fight the trust to a fin.
ish and that. with the arrival of the
steamer from New York, others would
start Immediately with large cargoes
Effect on Local Market.
Just what effect upon the local mar
ket the arrival of the Lyra will have
remains to be seen. When the Lyra
left on her journey to the Pacific
Coast the price of sugar was S5.l5,
while it was quoted at s565 in the 10
cal market. 4a 20 ia
The i3bbefs claim that The arrival
of.the steamer only dumps on the mar
.kst 500. tons of surplus sugar and
that they are the real fall guys" for
F'he Spteckels' bitter warfare. The
publication OF the shipment last May
had the tendency to scare the retailers
from buying more than hand.toha
quantities. and. as result disturbed
The local market three months before
the sugar really arrived in San Fran
cisco.
