C0vENT GARDEN GETS DANCER.
Famous Russian Is Imported as q
Rival to Hammerstein.

London, Nov. 25.-The lengths to which
the Covent Garden management has been
forced to go in order to combat the I'M
welcome competition of Oscar Hammer
stein in opera is shown by the importa-
ton from Russia of Nine. Mathilde Ko-
hessinska, who is living in semi-royal
state at the Savoy Hotel, accompanied
there and elsewhere by the Grand Duke
Andrea VIadimirovitch OF Russia.
The Grand Duke Andrei, who is a first
cousin of the Car, is following Ia the
gay and noble footsteps of his elder
brothers, the Grand Dukes Boris and
Cyril. It has become known that high
influence, amounting almost to the en-
ployment Of international diplomacy, was
resorted to in order to induce Nine. Ko-
hessinska to leave her beloved Russia
and dance for a few nights before the
aristocracy Of England.
In Russia Mime. Kohessinska dances
only when especially commanded by the
Car. This happens only on rare coca
sions. She yields to royal command
merely to crafty her love Of the art,
never for the vulgar purpose of money
making, for Nine. Kohessinska, be II
understood, is the richest actress and the
richest dancer in the world. She has
two palaces in Russia, at both of which

servants with as much obedience as they
accord to their beautiful and famous mis-

BITTERNESS IN GERMANY
OVER MOROCCAN SOLUTION
Signing of Agreement with France Signal for Public
Outbreak.

Berlin, Nov. 25.-The signing of the
Franco-German agreement in regard to
Morocco and Congo has not, as it was
hoped, cleared the air. On the contrary,
It has left behind 1t a feeling of bitter
ness on both sides. and, as matters stand,
there seems to be an opinion in political
circles that the danger of war has only
been postponed for a time. In spite of
all the talk Of peace and arbitration,
statesmen are fully aware that the prob
lens which face the two great nations
will ultimately be solved, not in the
council chamber, but on the field of
battle.
Looking at the situation without any
prejudice or bias, 1t cannot be denied that
Germany is to blame for the crisis that
is approaching. For the last. seven or
eight years the German empire has
threatened the peace Of Europe, and.
owing to its growing wealth. population.
and resources, as wei las its preponder-
ating military and naval strength, must
be an even greater menace in the future,
unless some totally unforeseen occur
renee should alter the, whole trend Of
her national aspirations.
She occupies, therefore, a very similar
position to that of France during the lat
ter part OF the seventeenth, the whole of
the elghteentns ana the greater part OF
the nineteenth centuries. She has, in
deed, far more Justification than France,
for while that nation had opportunities
for colonial expansion and enterprise, al
though 1t chose to forsake them for the
sake of annexing a few petty German
princedoms, Germany finds no such out
let for her population and her commerce,
and is even excluded from those ports
through which her markets are mainly
supplied and on which her chief indus
trial districts entirely depend.
The German people have a profound
belief in their future, and believe them
selves entitled to q predominant position
in Europe, as we'll as to q colonial en-
pire. The German-spealcing peoples con-
stltute q great and solid block in Central

This mercenary announcement is made

In January to discuss the best ways and
means of attracting American travellers
to Germany during the summer season

Of Germany, also the mayors OF many

The main object OF this convention Is

Paris, Nov. 2L-There is widespread
dissatisfaction among housewives at the
continued increase in the cost Of living
Every day one hears that something
else has gone up" Yesterday 1t was
salads and haricots, to-day 1t is butter
and milk, and tomorrow 1t will be sugar
and coffee. No wonder the braves mem
ageres' Of France are at their wits end
to know how to make both ends meet
And among the poorer classes, those with
whom the struggle Of life is a never
ceasing one, the rise in necessities means
untold misery.
But the rise in prices Is not confined
to food and rent Those who are cloth
ed in puple and fine linen, the grande
danes, whose elegance leads the world,
are now complaining that they can no
longer make their pin money do. Inquiries
among the branches of commerce which
depend upon ia toilette feminine show
that 1t is the milliners who have raised
their prices most.
It is asserted that the price Of raw
materials has within the last two years
increased 10 per cent. Ostrich feathers
are now from 30 to 40 per cent higher
than they were. The result is that hat
that in 1908 could be bought for so costs
$50 to-day. Ready-made shapes have also
gone up in an Incredible manner, and
for that reason most milliners make
their own forms" Felts, however, and
certain "carcases' cannot be initiated,
and manufacturers now charge $50 for
what two or three years ago could be

Fashion persists in popularizing feath-
ers and aigrettes, with the consequence
that, while the flower makers sit with
folded hands, those who manufact''r
feathers are unable to keep pace with
the demand. Notwithstanding the prog

years, plumes, and especially aigretteS,
have tripled in value, with the price still
rising. Is 1t surprising, then, that a

stationary, and II a customer knows how

she wants for $50. OF course, when one
remembers the changes that have taken
place in fashion during the rast two
years, 1t would be Illogical to suppose
that the cost OF feminine attire should
have risen. Innings, whalebones, and IN
derskirts have all been suppressed. so
that the quantity OF material employed
in making a dress has been reduced from
twelve or fifteen yards to four or five
yards. 1t is when the changeable sex

former times that the "couturier's"

Romance of the PeeraEe.
A romantic peerage problem is likely
to form the subject for gossip before
many moons wane. The Marquis OF
Tweedale is eighty-five years old, and
in failing health. and when the time
comes for the succession of his son,
Lord Clifford, it will probably be dis
puted by the Hay Newton family, who
are descended from Richard Hay New
ton, the second marquis, who succeeded
to the estates left in the eighteenth
century.
1t all arises out of the marriage of
pretty Lancashire lass, Dorothy Hale,
the widow of a sergeant in the British
army, who welded John Hay, son of the
father of the seventh marquis. 1t is
alleged that Dorothys first husband
was alive long after her second marriage,
which is therefore void. The question
was raised, but allowed to rest again on
the death of the ninth marquis in 1878. 1t
is only in recent years that Dorothy has
appeared in Burks's Peerage, and even
now that famous volume does not refer
to her marriage. The Hay Newtons be-
lieve they stand an excellent chance Of
making good their claim. Dorothy is
the ancestress of many modern Doro-
thys in society, including the Countess
of Chesterfield, Glasgow, and Cranbrook.

Marriage Between Moor and Eu-

Paris, Nov. 25.-The unfortunate ter
mination OF the union of Othello and

to marriages between Moors and Euro
peans. An English lady with a we'll
known name married, a few years ago
the grand shereef of Wazen, the head Of
the Taietrych sect, and lives happily in
Morocco. And now enormous interest
has been evoked by the marriage at St
Etienne of another of these shereefs of
Wazen, rejoicing in the name of Mulai
Brahim ben Mulai Tayet, to a French
lady. The Moor, who seems to have been
encouraged by the happy venture Of his
relative, is only twenty-one years of
age, while his bride is sixteen. One of
the most powerful of the religious chiefs
of the country, he considers himself q
direct descendant of Mahomet.
1t was while roller skating that the
Moor met and became fascinated with
his future wife. He visited st. Etienne
to See the arms factory, and in the in
tervals of business he frequented the
roller skating rink, where his attention
was rivited on the grace and charms Of
Mile. Rose Beaque.
Five thousand persons surrounded the
entrance to the Hotel de Vile, where
the wedding ceremony was performed.

PREHISTORIC SURGERY.
Skeletons from Tomb of Stone Age
Reveal Startling Facts.

Special Cable 10 The Washington Herald.
Paris, Nov. 25.-Evidences of surgical
operations performed with a blunt in
strument by prehistoric men were the
feature OF a very interesting communi-
cation made to the Academy of Sciences
by Prof. Guyon on behalf Of DR.. Marcel
Baudouin.
The latter some time ago discovered a
large tomb dating from the polished
Stone Age at Bengy Department Of
Seine-et-Marne). He examined 100 skele-
tons, and discovered many facts which
are entirely new to science. Many Of
the bones showed traces of regular sur
gical operations which must have been
carried out by flint instruments. Some
of them gave indications of fractures
that had been treated and cured, and
more than one of the skulls had been
trepanned. While in certain cases these
operations had been only partly per-
formed, in others the operations had
proved a complete success.
