WORRIED BY HIS CARES.
Friends of Emperor Joseph Fear H,
Is Critically Ill.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
VIENNA, April 13.-Worried by hostile
political factions and bowed down by the
weight of his advanced years, Emperor
Francis Joseph is broken man, physi-
cally. and his friends fear that the cares
Of state may soon prove too heavy for
him to bear longer. The emperor is i'll,
but just how sick he is no one knows
outside of immediate court circles. The
imperial physici: rs have orders not to
discuss the condition of their patient and
every attempt is being made to prevent
Information from leaking out through
any other source.
Political affairs in Austria Hungary have
reached a critical stage. Army reforms
which the emperor has suggested have
been spurned, and the effect Of this treat
ment has also played its part in adding
to the physical burden.
There were rumors this evening that
the emperor had suffered a relapse and
his condition was grave, but these could
not be substantiated.

POLITICS DAY BY DAY

Senator Dixon at the Roosevelt head
quarters said:
Five hundred and ten delegates to the
republican national convention have
been elected up to date, 15s having been
elected during the past week. OF these,
ISL are for Col Roosevelt, 40 for Mr..
Taft. for Senator Cummins. 36 for
Senator La Toilette. 1O6 uninstructed. In
Guiding So from New York state; and
contests are pending in cases of the re-
naming 1884,"
Last night the Taft headquarters gave
out this statement:
THE utter inaccuracy of the table Of
delegates being put out from the Roose-
welt national headquarters in Washing
ton has long been recognized by all fair
minded men. The table manifestly has
been based from its inception on the po-
ltical tide against Mr.. Roosevelt, his
managers being put to the utmost ex-
tremes to make progress in his behalf
The contested delegate column was
never even thought of BY the Roosevelt
managers until it became apparent that
Mr.. Roosevelts column Of instructed
delegates was SO meager as to be ridicul-
Gus in its proportions, hence the con-
tested delegates list. Next came the
'uninstructed' delegate list. 1t made no
difference whether or not the 'uninstruct-
ed delegates had gone on record pub
licly or in signed letters as for Mr.
Taft, they were claimed for Mr.. ROose-
Welt. Next in line of progress came the
process of putting delegates actually in
structed for Mr.. Taft in some other
column. No uniform rule has been fol-
lowed in this particularly merely de-
ponds upon what particular Roosevelt
manager is on the job when new list

FRIENDS ACTIVE IN BEHALF

Edward s. Rowe. the Confederate vet
eran who. with his sister. Mrs. Brown.
was evicted few days ago from the hut
which they have occupied for seventeen
years in Takoma Park. were cared for
yesterday afternoon by residents of
Takoma Park. and steps have been taken
to provide the pair with necessary COM
forts while search Is being made for
home for them. Mayor Plat yester-
day afternoon raised q purse Of money
which will serve to tide them over for
several days, and other citizens have, in
terested themselves in securing quarters
for Rowe and his sister, who have not
been separated in many years.
The two sturdily refused to appeal for
help. even In the dire straits to which
they were reduced when driven out of
their humble home. An appeal to the au-
thorities Of the sanatorium at Takoma
Park yesterday. however. resulted in q
large weatherproof tent being placed al
their disposal, in which they can keep
comfortable unless the weather should
Unexpectedly become severe. 1T is be-
l1eved that plans which are being made
for the removal Of Rowe to q home FOR
Confederate veterans in the south will
be acceptable to him. and 1t is believed
within few days.
Rowe's Record In the Army.
Rowe left school to enter the Confed-
crate army. and was with Gen. Stuart
when the latter was killed near Rich
mond. His record in the Confederate
army, it is said, is such as to entitle him
to admission into any of several homes
in the south. HE'S sister is said to have
been until recently fashionable dress
maker and had as patrons many society
women of Washington, as well as the
wives Of a number of foreign diplomats.
Councilman E. E. Blodgett called at
the temporary quarters Of Mr. Rowe and
Mrs. Brown yesterday afternoon, and the
war veteran extended his hand and
warmly welcomed the town official. who.
as did many of the residents, proffered
assistance to the couple. For the first
time in two days Mr.. Rowe expressed q
willingness to move from his present
quarters If more comfortable ones. could
be secured for him. He told the council
man that he ate hearty meal at II
o clock Friday night, and slept soundly
until O'Clock Saturday morning His
sister slept all night in rocking chair,
while her brother slept on a cot. While
they are DESTROYS of securing better quar-
ters, no action will be taken by the town
officials pending the arrival Tuesday of
the county commissioners, who now have
the case under consideration. Should
they wish to remain in Takoma Park,
Mr.. Blodgett will endeavor to secure a
small house for them. Mrs. Brown re-
manned all day and last night with her
brother.

The Mysteries of Youth
By Beatrice Fatr5ax

THOSE who have travelled the trou-
bled path of youth, when one
doesn't know what one wants
and is prodigal with emotions in trying
to find out, will smile indulgently over
the following letter:
There is so much in 1t of the human
nature that the years have taught.those
who are older to guide and control. 1t
is like Youth.
Il am young girl of sixteen and
until few weeks ago had been going
with young man one year my senior.
Some childish misunderstanding had
broken our sincere friendship, and since
then we just greet each other when we
meet and pass on.
To-day as / was wallSinS along the
street l CHANGED to meet. him. He was
with another girl. He tipped his hat l
looked at him, and at,the girl, and much
to my horror l burst out laughing. ]
can not comprehend whatever pos
sessed me TO do so. ] am sure Ii was
not jealousy (for pity the GRID, and
every time think of 1t l just laugh
and laugh Can you tell what it is that
makes me laugh?"
1t is the Mysteries of youth. You
laughed because you are young. You
wanted to show by an Indifferent smile
that you didn't care. And that smile
became a laugh, Being very young,
you laugh immoderately, and you cry
to excess.
You are like q swing that flies back
and forth as far as the rope permits.
When you get older, and 1t is thine to
let the cat die" as they say when. the
swinging nears an end, there will be
less of the extremes in all your emo
tons You will never Je so miserable
you can't see ray of hope.
am sorry you laughed, but you
couldn't help it, am sure it meant no
unkind feeling and that 1t was not the
laugh of resentment. But it is sure to
be misunderstood. A pleasant little
smile, such as you would give to a mere
acquaintance, would have won for you
the admiration and respect Of both your
former lover and your rival.
They Will not interpret that laugh TO
your credit. You were not jealous, you
say, yet a hysterical Laugh would ind-
cate that you are 1t showed that you
