Events That Have Led to
the Conflict in Europe

The causes Of the war which has
set all Europe abIaxe are az fol-
lows:
The eentury-old hatred Of the
Serbs and the Austrians, each
for the other, growing out Of the
struggle Of the Serbs for unity
and freedom, In which Austria.
through her possession Of Serv-
Ian provinces, effeetually bars tho
way.
The Impassioned rage Of the
Servians that they VINO have
thrown of the yoke Of the Turk
In territory once held by the sui
tan, have been unable TO win one
foot Of ground or a single subject
from the dual monarchy.
The deep resentment Of Austria
at the murder Of Arehduke Franz
Ferdinand, heir to the throne, on
June %, through a Servian plot,
which brought al the long smol-
derlng bitterness Of the two peo-
Piles to a climax.
Tho ultlmatum delivered TO Ser
via by Austria demanding punish
ment Of the archduke's slayers.
Servla's reply, termed by tho
Austrian Foreign office "unsatis-
factory"
Precipitation OF France, Ger
many and Italy Into the crisis by
Russia's determination TO block
any change In the balance Of pow
er In the Balkans.
The known purpose OF Russia TO
use all her armies to this end makes
that great empire In effect an ally
Of ServIa, and In turn draws France
to support the Russian standard
through an offensive and defensive
alliance.
Russia's espousal Of the Servian
cause automatically brings into
play the triple alliance, In which
Germany and Italy are bound to
rally to the support Of their ally,
Austria.

Herbert Rawlinson, who will play the
part Of Pythias in Damon and Pythias, ="
the wonderful new masterpiece pro-
uced by Otis Turner, was born at Brigh-
ton, the most popular seaside town in
England.
During his boyhood his father taught
him to ride and swim. In fact, he spent
as much time in the ocean or on horse
back as he did in school or at home.
He went to a school at St Servan in
France, where he passed three years,
during which time he learned to speak
French like a native. At this time
thoughts regarding things theatrical
were uppermost IN his mind.
When young man Mr.. Rawlinson
went to his uncle's fruit farm in On
tario. For time he enjoyed II, but the
acting bee was so strong within him
that farming soon became too slow.
Therefore when a opportunity presented
itself for playing q bit in a small road
show, he snapped it up. He later played
