Curtain Calls

Alexander Carr, the "Mawruss'
Perlmutter of that entertaining firm
of Potash & Perlmutter," which has
it's headquarters at the Cohan The
atre, is impressed with the fact that
more than a few of the persons who
attend theatrical performances are
prone to take them very seriously.
He has a little collection of letters
that seem to prove this.
Several of these ask him if he
would care to consider a partnership
in clothing firm, the idea of the
writer's being that the name Perl

ment to any firm; others offer him an
opening if the firm of Potash & PERL
mutter is forced to go to the wall
as was threatened at one time in the
play-while the actor has received at
least one generous offer of financial
assistance if there is any delay IN get
ting back the bail money the firm

Francis Joseph then had prospects
of many years still to reign. Now,

or Vast Political Importance.
Archduke Francis Ferdinand. on be-
coming heir to the throne, formally re-
nounced all title to the throne on
behalf of his children. This was
necessary because Austrian laws
debar the offspring of morganatic
marriages becoming rulers of the
country. No such disqualification
exists under the Hungarian laws. and
in the event of division of the mon
archy, without such voluntary renun-
citation the son of Francis Ferdinand
might succeed to the Hungarian
throne.
The death of Francis Ferdinand will
throw all burdens of government upon
the aged Emperor, and at the moment
il is next to impossible to predict
what political results will follow yes
terday's tragic events. The late arch
duke nau tremendously SlfOnR per-

cal, military and naval affairs. He

ments. He was in favor of the resto-
ration of temporal power of the Pope.

Italy. endangered Italian alliance and
is believed to have looked to an alli-

counterfeit Hungarian influence.
Whether this was true or not, he GER
tainly was anxious to increase Aus
trian influence in the Balkans, and
worked theoretically with that aim in
view, which is held as explaining Ser
Wan antagonism toward him.
Little is known of Archduke Karl
Francis Joseph's political leanings,
but it is supposed that with the dis
appearance of such a strong person
atty, Austria may soon enter upan
period of greater quietude than she
would have experienced under Arch
duke Francis Ferdinand.

Archduke and Wife Are
Assassinated in State
Populated Chiefly by Serbs

The fact that the assassina ton of
Archduke Francis Ferdinand and his
wife occurred in Bosnia and that one
of the assassins is said to be a
Servian recalls the fact that in Oc-
tober, 1908, when Austria annexed
Bosnia and Herzegovina, the govern
ment of Servia protested belligerently
against being hemmed in between
two unpopular neighbors and against
having the Servians in Bosnia abb
sorbed into the Austro- Hungarian
nationality.
At the time of the annexation it
was declared that the act was
prompted by a desire on the part of
Austria and Bulgaria for their ag-
grandizement at the expense of the
status established by the Treaty of
Berlin in 1875 The action of Austria
in annexing Bosnia and Herzegovina
moved Turkey to call upon the
powers to preserve to her what they
guaranteed by that treaty.

He had to greet the car and car

The court voices began to make

not reach him to obtain his denial. 1t
is said that she went to the princess
and demanded point blank to know il
she had lost her lover. The princess
is said to have assured her that
Franz Ferdinand cared only for her

permission to marry her.

TRAGEDY MARKS REIGN
OF AUSTRIA'S EMPEROR

Franz Josef has been called the
Emperor of Sorrows. The Curse
of the Hapsburgs'' is said by the
superstitious to have followed his
kin. The curse was pro-
nounced by the aged Countess
Carolyn, whose son was put to
death for participating in the
Hungarian uprising. She called
upon heaven and hell to blast the
happiness of Franz Josef and
strike him through those he
loved. Thus he has been stricken:
His wife, 1.-The good Elizabeth"
was assassinated in Switzerland.
His brother Macmillan was
executed in Mexico.
His only son, Rudolf, was a
suicide.
His sister-in-law, the Duchess
D'Alencon, was burned to death
In a charity bazaar in Paris.
His favorite grandchild married
against his wishes and her love
ended in the shooting of her rival.
And now
His nephew, the Archduke
Franz Ferdinand, and his wife,
the Duchess OF Hohenberg. have
been assassinated in the capital
of Bohemia.

signs Of Hostility We're shown.
When the archduke and duchess ar
rived at SarayeVo on Saturday some
signs of hostility were shown by the
Serb portion of the population. Just
before the couple passed through the
city the authorities succeeded in get
ting rid of great display of Servian
flags which the people had hoisted in
stead of flying the Austrian colors.
The bitterness of feeling, however,
was carried to the extreme when at a

express sorrow at the death of the
archduke four Servian deputies APP

Bombs Are. Found.
1t was learned today that several
bombs were found along the Sarayevo
| railway, over which the archduke and
/ his wife would have travelled.
Prinzip's own plans were carefully
laid. He secreted himself behind a
building at spot where it was nee
essary for the archdukes car to
slacken speed. Some accounts of the
crime say that Prinzip actually stood
on the steps of the ducal car as he
fired the shots.
Against all these carefully laid
plans of the criminals the extraordi-
nary precautions taken by the au-
thorities proved unavailing, for the
murderers guessed rightly that the
archduke would not be frightened
into giving up his program after the
first bomb had failed.

In Prinzips rooms the police today
found a large sum of money which
they say is further proof that he was

Archduke Franz Ferdinand
Spurned Austria's Throne
for Love of a Countess

The tragedy of Serjove was the
curtain-fall of a romance, royal,
beautiful and brave-a romance that
has stirred the admiration and as
constituent of Europe. 1t was the
ending-for this world at least-of a
love that had defied laws, traditions
and imperial commands and over
topped the power of a throne.
The Archduke Franz Ferdinand be-
came the heir to the dual thrones
of Austria and Hungary upon the
tragic death of the Crown Prince
Rudolf. Then in his early twenties,
athletic, impetuous, handsome and
soldier born, he met the young
Countess Sophie of Chotek, daughter
of an obscure Bohemian nobleman,
but beautiful and cultured.
She was a belle in the royal So
ciety of Vienna when the young
archduke first saw her. He was
being trained then for his imperial
future. The aged emperor was con-
sidering for him an alliance with a
woman of royal blood. 1t was whis-
pered by the court gossips that the
favored lady was none other than
the widowed Crown Princess Ste
phanie.
The archdukes own conduct sub
a devoted attendant at the prin-
cess's seat at Abazzi. And there,
in hidden arbors and by secluded
banks. he spoke his love.
1t was not the princess. however.
who heard and thrilled in answer to
the wooing of the archduke, but
Sophie of Chotek, the most beautiful
and most cultured of the ladies in
waiting in the princess's train.
The truth could not be long con-
cealed The archduke was the last
person in the world to try to conceal
it. His attentions to the countess
were reported to the shocked ears of
the emperor. He was summoned into
the royal presence. Franz Josef pre-
scented solemnly to the young man
the necessity, under the laws of the
Hapsburgs. of his wedding a woman
of his own rank. He mentioned the
reported affair with the countess. He
entreated, he threatened
Franz Ferdinand replied cour-
teously but daringly: Your majesty,
you yourself once declared that in
choosing a wife prince should fol-
low the dictates of his heart"
Can it be that you will renounce
the throne?" cried the aged monarch.
81 mean that the Countess Chotek
shall be my wife
Thereafter all sorts of machina
tons were resorted to by the emperor
and his advisers to crush the ro-
nance. The very next day after the
interview the Archduke read in the
official court organ that he was about
to go to Budweis to study statecraft.
He cared little for statecraft, ex-
cept in its military phase, and he
cared nothing for Budweis: but he
obeyed the implied mandate and went.
The Countess Sophie found need of
change and went to visit her rela-
tives near Budweis.
When this reached the court it was
announced that the royal heir was
dangerously i'll and was considering
the remuneration of his rights to the
throne. This would have meant the
elevation of Franz Ferdinand's un-
