STAGE FRIGHT
SEXES AUDIENCE

PARIS, December Stage fright is
we'll known trouble which actors and
actresses have to cope with, but an
other kind of stage fright Seems now
to affect the spectators A curious in
stance of it occurred at the Francois,
where, during a performance, a sort Of
panic seized the audience without any
plausible reason. Shortly after the
curtain had risen four or five young
ladies in one of the front rows sud
denly got up and left the building hW-
riedly, without saying anything, but
apparently they we're very much eXcit.
ell. Other spectators looked in Won
der, but could see nothing Many, how
ever, took fright, and left their seats
to rush for the doors.
In an instant nearly everybody was
on foot and making hurried attempts
to reach the exits. The audience con
sisted mostly of young girls and their
mothers, and though they iostled each
other a little, no great harm was done
One Of the actors on the stage no
ticed the beginning of the panic, He
addressed the public and told them
that they were absolutely safe and had
nothing to fear This did not suffice
and fireman who stepped on The
stare also made vain aDueals TO the
public. There was nothing to stou
them until nearly all the stalls had
been evacuated. The directors score
tary then appeared on the stage and
succeeded in persuading the spectator,
that there had been a false alarm an'
I induced them to return to their places
The excitement lasted some ten min
utes, and the only material damage
was some crushed hats and crimplej

OHIO CHAIRMAN
FOR ROOSEVELT

TOLEDO, Ohio, December 2.-Pre-
dieting that the Republicans of Ohio
will declare against Taft and in no
uncertain voice demand that Theo.
dore Roosevelt may again be their
standard-bearer in 1912, Walter F..
Brown, chairman Of the Ohio Repub-
lican State Central Committee-the
party controlling committee in Presi-
dent Taft's own state-has replied to
the letter addressed to him by John
d. Fackler, who is in charge of prog
ressive Republican headquarters IN
Columbus.
Mr.. Fackler requested that the
state committee afford the Republi-
cans an opportunity to express their
presidential preference between the
two avowed candidates, William II.
Taft and Senator La Toilette of Wis
Consin.
Chairman Brown takes the position
that the Republicans should be given
a broader opportunity for choice to
include leaders and significantly adds
UNLESS I wholly mistake the SEN
timent of our fellow Republicans, if
given a chance, they will with no
uncertain voice again declare their
preference for their standard-bearer
of 1904, who, though in no sense a
candidate now, is too loyal a Repub-
lican, and too good a citizen to deny
the clearly expressed demand Of his
party and his country"

and beauty, to try to develop it,
Breathing exercises are the best
thing for this purpose. Singers and
public speakers almost always have
good chests, because thy are trained
to breathe deeply and correctly
Breathing exercises are best per-
formed at night, when all heavy cloth
ing, the corset in particular, has been
removed. The window should be
open for there is no profit in taking
bad air into your lungs.
Stand erect, with hands close to the
sides. Inhale slowly and evenly
through the nose. Hold the breath as
long as you possibly can, then exhale
slowly and evenly through the mouth
DO this ten times each night You
will soon notice an increase in the
length of time you can hold the
breath. Practice taking long breaths
when you are walking.
Dumbbell and Indian club exercises
are excellent for chest developments
Go at them gently at first, especially
if you are not very strong, There are
other simple home exercises which
will help you in this direction For
instance, lie fiat on the back on the
floor with legs and arms straight and
knees close together. Now try to rise
to sitting position without touching
the elbows to the floor You won't be
able to do it at first, but you soon

ROUGH HOUSE BY
AUSTRIAN SOLONS

VIENNA, December 1.-The Aus.
trian parliament seems to have alb
sorbed its full share of the warlike
spirit which is abroad in Europe these
days. 1t is no unusual thing to have
incipient riots in the chamber, but
the scene which occurred during the
sitting of parliament last week was
disgraceful, even for Vienna.
Deputies Malik and Hummer, both
members of the German National
party but partisans of different fac
tons, besides being enemies in pri-
vate life, had dispute during the
sitting, and commenced a conflict
just in front of the presidents seat
Suddenly Deputy Malik drew out a
dog whip and Hummer struck his o.
ponent with a briefbag. Malik struck
him twice with the whip, slashing
long wounds on his face,
Meanwhile other members were
fighting. Both deputies had then
coat collars torn off, and Hummer
had a fainting fit. Afterward each
of the deputies told his friends that
he intended to shoot the other on the
street at the first opportunity

KAISER IMMENSELY POPULAR
NOTWITHSTANDING HIS EGOTISM

BERLIN, December 2.-The Kai-
ser's recent remarks on Islam to n
well known missionary have raised a
storm of indignation among his sub
jects; and it would almost seem as
though his imperial majesty was un-
able to avoid the fire of public criti-
cism. Indeed, he once confessed that
this was the case. In conversation
with a friend, who complained that
he had been misunderstood, the Kai-
ser said: "Oh, don't let yourself be
disturbed by criticism. Just think
how am criticised During all the
years of my reign people have been
finding fault with me. Sixty millions
of Germans represented by seventy
million opinions" In spite of the fact
that he is so often putting his foot
in it," however, the Kaiser is really
immensely popular with his people.
1t is merely his impetuosity that
causes him to get into temporary hot
water.
1t is this impetuosity which occa-
sionally leads the Kaiser in amusing
situations. He cannot bear to think
that anyone knows more upon a sub
ject than he does, and not long ago
be even went so far as to make a be
that he was right on a question Of
zoology. He was visiting a menag-
erie in Germany, and was being
shown round by a well known animal
trainer Coming before a cage of ele-
plants, the Kaiser paused, and said:
1T is strange that scholars are not
unanimous on the question whether
Hannibal used African or Indian ele.
plants when he crossed the Alps. -

and eventually his majesty made a
wager that the trainer could not train

hours. Unfortunately for the imper
