Like everybody associated with the
theater, Augustus Thomas has his super
stitions. Mr.. Thomas does not call them
superstitions; he speaks az them as a
prudent regard for the bridges that bring
one over. The playwright's first substan-
tial success, TN Mizzoura." had its pre-
miere at Powers, then HooIsy's Theater,
Chicago. Hence Mr.. Thomas urgent re-
quest and Charles Frohman's ready xill-
ingness that the new Thomas play,
When It Comes Home" shall also have
its first performance in Chicago. Easter
Monday is the date decided upon for Chi

Conditions In Mexico
 Getting Worse

No promise of bettered conditions exists in the near future for the West Coast of Mexico is the opinion of Charles A Dinsmore, 6 mining writer who returned to Tuceon on his way home in EI Psso after spending several months travelling from place to place over the west Coast.
 "rhis mooth conditione are worse than last month, and have no doubt but that pext month will be worse than this," be said. "There is notn- ing ahead but famine for the Me1i- cans. No crops have been planted, {, for the rebels have been invading the Mexican ranches st intervals of about two weeks and taking everything they could find Of vslue in any way. In Nazstlan, and in other towps condi. tions seem quiet enough. It is iD the outlying districts that they are st their worst."

QUEEN AS. WITNESS
IN ROYAL SCANDAL
Notorious HeIga de la Brache
Case Again Crops Up in
Stockholm

PARIS, July IA mild looking, no.
torious Helga de la Brache case may
occupy the courts, and the queen dow
ager of Denmark is threatened with q
summons to appear as a witness.
Periodically this case has attracted
intense interest In Scandinavia, by
season of the king and other members
Of the Swedish royal family being
brought into the scandal, but this
time the probe is apparently to be
pushed further.
Helga de la Brache. 1t is alleged,
was the daughter of King Gustavus
" Adolphus and his queen born in
exile. The king was dethroned. 1t
is further alleged that over $2,000,000
in a MYSTERIOUS way was paid to the
Swedish court on her behalf by the
Russian court, and four letters prov
ing her royal descent we're handed at
the same time to the Swedish. court.
1t is certain that King Carl XIV al
lowed Helga de la Brache a pension
but this was afterwards withdrawn.
She has been dead many years, but
the case has been fought with per-
sistence by Mr.. Johansson, formerly
s member of the landsthing. 1t has
been before several courts. The royal
archives have been searched, the
queen dowager of Sweden and other
members of the royal family have re
Gently filed long autograph statements
in the case and altogether the proceed
ings have stirred society from top to
bottom.
Now, following the death of the king
of Denmark, Mr.. Johansson considers
the dowager queen of Denmark, who
is the only child of King Carl XIV OF
Sweden, has become an Independent
legal personality So he has address
ed a letter to King Gustav of Sweden
in which he earnestly begs of the king
to persuade the dowager queen OF
Denmark to furnish him (the king)
with a complete statement OF her
knowledge of the case, or, falling this,
again to refer the case to a Stock
holm court before which the dow
ager queen of Denmark could be sum-
moned as witness.
