lar branch of choral singing 1t has achieved

In the middle OF the scene the Arch
duchess Sophia enters. She brings back ia
him Count Prokesch. the friend who had
been banished by Metternich.
The duke is afraid he is not fitted for
the place should the chance over come tc
him Of being emperor. II am not like
other gretE mems sons" he says Then
follows a pathetic scene where the duke
brings forth a box Of wooden soldiers
They were given to me by Metternich, "
he says. "They are Austrian soldiers, -
says Prokesch. When he opens the box
the soldiers are found to be soldiers OF
France. The duke, overjoyed, is putting
the soldiers into line when Metternich en-
ters. He commands that the French SOL
diers be thrown away. The lackey who
throws them away whispers to the duke
that he will paint them French again.
When Marshal Marmont is brought to
the duke he is assalled bitterly as the
traitor to Napoleon. Marmont, sick of
treachery, joins the plot to place the duke
on the French throne.
The next act, same location, finds EN-
peror Francis hearing petitioners. He
grants one after another until he reaches
a shepherd, who says he has been deprived
of his land by his fathers foes. How

grandson have touching scene. which

the duke part in anger.
F1ambeau is on guard at the dukes
chambers all night. The duke has arranged
that II his grandfather fails him, he will
leave signal in the anteroom. He does
so, leaving Napoleon's hat on the table.
Metternich enters, sees the hat. Meter
mich speaks to the hat, startled at the
shadow OF the man he had feared. While
he is talking his eyes fall on Flambeau,
who has dressed himself in the old uni
form of the grenadiers. Flambeau refuses
to allow Metternich to pass to the duke s
room, saying the emperor sleeps" F1am-
beau is forced to make his escape through
window A strong scene follows between
the duke and Metternich, in which Meter
mich tells the duke he is not the son OF
Napoleon; that he is rather the son Of a
long line OF degenerate kings OF Spain and
Austria, the ancestors of his mother.
Metternioh continues his conference with
the duke and makes such a strong impress

of these tickets sold for the 22S matinees

Omaha has reason to be proud OF its Men

Mr.. Thomas j. Kelly. For some years the
Thomas Orchestra has accompanied the

Pekin, Nov 6.-The removal Of the
Rigorous censorship of the Chinese
press is a notable sign of the times
and Chinese papers today publish with
greatest freedom accounts of Hankow
massacres, attributing the blame to
the imperialists. The United States
and England have decided to take eff
fective measures for the protection of
their people in China in the event of
danger to the foreigners, which now
seems improbable.
1t is suggested that Prince Tsai
Suan has left the country, as he has
not been seen for several days. He
obtained months leave from his post
as acting minister of the navy. AT a
special secret meeting of the national
assembly it was decided to telegraph
Yuan Shi Kai. explaining the fearfully
involved condition of the political stu
alton here, which required the imme-
diate presence of the premier. Other
wise the assembly will be unable to
tide over the difficulties. A member OF
the assembly explains this warning
that if Yuan does not comply another
premier may be appointed.
Consular reports from Mukden say
many Chinese are fleeing into the
country, believing the Manchus will
retreat TO Mukden and massacre the
Chinese inhabitants.
The only demand of the people
which the throne has not granted is
a ne punishment OF tue -off1ciak ks ase<psas-

Cincinnati, Nov. 6.-President Taft
qualified as a voter here today, he ap-
pearing personally before the Cincin-
natl election board, and later before
the election judges in his precinct. He
said he would vote early tomorrow. He
announced his intention of voting the
Republican ticket. In voting tomor-
row the president will cast the first
ballot of any president of the United
States for a woman who is seeking Of
fee. He will vote for Miss Edith
Campbell, candidate for a member at
large of the local school board. Taft
arrived here today from Hot Springs,
Va.
CEREMONY BRIEF.
Mr.. Taft came into the room of the
election board in the city hall this
morning pretty nearly like any other
citizen, except for the presence of Ma
tor Butt in uniform and a detail of
Cincinnati police. The ceremony was
brief and to the point.
TITS hardly necessary to ask you If
you have been in the city during Oe-
tober," said one of the board as the
president took a seat at the long table
around which the board was gathered,
laid his silk hat in front of him and
took off his gloves.
NO." said the president. smiling. I
haven't. It has been quite impossible
for me to get here owing to the en-
gAxsmentS had made" -
Under the circumstances, then,
said the chairman, Il guess we'll give
you a certificate"
Mr.. Taft put on his gloves, lifted his
hat from the table, the police closed in
about him and he marched out. In
the corridors of the city hall were
several hundred citizens waiting to get
their certificates also.
There goes Taft" yelled one man.
I'll bet he votes the right ticket,
said another,
The president smiled. He has al
ready announced his intention of sup
porting the Republican candidates on
the municipal ticket.
Tomorrow Mr.. Taft will cast his
vote at 20S Madison road. His last
place of residence in Cincinnati was
at 1885 Madison road. Today he had
forgotten the number, but he was able
to describe ii so that the others knew
what was meant. You see," said the
Aresident. I've forgotten the number,
but" and he took the case in which
he carries his eyeglasses to use as q
pointer, its on Madison road just be-
fore you turn like this and he made
a fine flourish with the case.
"Oh, that's the old Walker place, $
said friend.
Yes" agreed the president, that's
the place"
after. obtaining his certificate the
president was driven to the Office of
his brother, Charles P Taft, where he
chatted for a few minutes and later
was driven to Mr.. Taft's home, where
he will stop during his stay here. The
plans for his trip were changed slight
ly again today. Instead of leaving
Cincinnati tomorrow night, the presi-
dent will leave early Wednesday morn
ing.
