In al order OF the day the Emperor Francis
Joseph has struck of for all time from the
roll o. the Austrian Army the 2sth Regiment
and branded it with the stigma Of cowsrdce.
There is no denying that in an engagement
round the Dukla Pass with the Russians two
bsttalions OF the regiment surrendered TO the
enemy without a blow. The accusation Of
"owardice" is, nevertheless, wholly unde-
served. The now disbanded 26th Regiment
consisted Of Bohemans that is to say,
Czechs. 1t is well known that the Czechs dis
approved Of the war, and openly declared that
if forced to 60 into battle they would refuse
to fight They do not regard themselves as
Austrians. and for years they have conspired
and struggled 10 become an Independent
state. They might, at stretch OF words, be
called mutinous, but the dishonorable charge

Early In May I visited Volterra, city lit
tie known to Americans, an ancient city OF
wonderful beauty. The entire population IS
COMPOSED of the working classes, and by day
the narrow streets are crowded with peas
ants. I talked with many Of them; none de-
sired war. but il II came they were not only
willing. but anxious to fight. A little widow
who keeps the Albergo Stella spoke OF the
situation as it appealed to her.
This European war has crippled Italy
dreadfully by keeping the 'forestiert away.

classes must always work; a little more OF
less can hardly make any difference, and II

War is unthinkable, cruel, horrible, and
personally many officers of my acquaintance
were bitterly opposed to it, The commander
in chief Of the Italian army, the King, was
opposed, and had there been en- alternative

Austria had become insulting in her ofers;
Trentino and Trieste were theirs by divine
right. and the time had come to go forth
and claim their own.

lieutenant of artillery, the other day. "Why!'
an absolute rage seemed to pass over him
why, the Austrians wronged my great
grandfather-it's In the blood to hate; We

while they did not actually seek war, Italy
was not entirely against it, and those who
were have accepted the inevitable with pride
and courage.

A Country Town.

We make a great mistake when we as
sent TO the notion that Manhattan Island
is not in the country" 1t is country ter
ritory distinctly. Quite true, two and a
half million people sleep on the island
every night, and as many more visit 1t
each day for their labors and their pleas
ures. But there are few country villages
that are more open TO the influences of
earth or sky than this great city, or
where, on a good, breezy day, the breath
Of heaven smells more wooingly-putting
aside. as we may, some Immediately local
conditions. The CONFORMATION of the
island has put us in the midst Of Nature

At the end Of nearly every street is a
vista Of woods and hills; one may look to
east and west and see them in both d.

waters-pure themselves and purifying

A consequence Of this proximity to the
green open spaces is found in the visits of

Make Them Stop!
iitor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Why not secure the enactment of a
law, this winter, in our Legislature, "Stop Be-
fore You Cross" with appropriate penalties
for failure to observe it? II every vehicle
and every pedestrian, every one in fact, were
required By law 10 stop before passing over
grade crossings of all railroads, to assure
safety BY deliberate observation, the salvage
Of human life, first consideration, would be
notable, while the safety and comfort of rail-
road travel would be greatly enhanced. The
railroad companies throughout the state am
sure, would gladly aid in securing the nee
essary legislation and later engage in the pro-
mitigation Of the law. JN0. Y. CULVER.

"Moyies" a. Trance Inducers.

The young lacy from Mississippi who
was hypnotized by the eyes of Svengali
on a moving picture screen, and remained
in trance after the audience had de-
parted and the theatre had been closed,
was undoubtedly reduced to this con-
dition by her own imagination. There
was no hypnotic operator near-noth-
ing but a picture. 1t is true that the
cinematographic copy Of a man that we see
on a screen is remarkably vivid, and also
true that living operator is not neces-
sary. in all cases, to induce the artificial
catalepsy of hypnosis. The condition may
be self-irduced. But there is a condition
of semi-lifelessness which needs no hypno-
sis at all. 1t is kind Of emotional paraly-
sis of the will which is considerably more
than half intentional.
Cases of the apparent paralysis OF
trance" have been cured with great
promptness by the gruf command of
heartless male relative, or Of doctor
trained in the old-fashioned imperative
school Of medicine: Get up, you idiot
and behave YOURSELF" A condition Of
leathlike insensibility was on one occa-
sion suddenly cured by the nonchalant
entrance into the room of small dog
which as supposed to be lost. 1t is prob
able that when nervous female traveller
n the metropolis has made up her mind
that she will go into trance she simply
will, ard modern science will achieve
great triumph if it prevents her.
Just the same, the illusions and nervous
reactions actually produced by the moving
pictures are an extraordinary and star
ting thing. The general public is now as
deeply affected by shadow on a sheet as
it once was by flesh and blood actors on
the stage. At recent moving picture
performance in this city, in which vii
famous character was plotting and appar-
emily effecting the ruin and death of a
NJ Bile young man, woman in the audience
whispered quite loudly, "Stop him! Won't
somebody stop him." Whereupon an ell
Derby gentleman sitting near, said: Ger
tainly, madam; will 90 and stick my UNI
brella through the sheet if you insist"
Characters on the screen are frequently
Kissed and otherwise insulted. In this
city, the other night, at one of the uptown
theatres, lady of strong pro-Ally SYM
pathies was with difficulty restrained
from crying out SHANE on you" to the
image of cruel German general. All Of
which cases are not essentially different
from that of a bulldog in a New Jersey
town which viciously attacked a photo
graphic collie, which was trotting about
in the background of a street scene on the
screen.
AS illusion and trance inducers the films
are making rapid progress. People who
are too susceptible to their influence
should nc doubt be accompanied when they

the Hollanders state with grim conviction,
that they will fight oil the world before
they will cede an inch Of territory. This
would be enough 10 keep the Dutch from
sleeping soundly, but there is more. In MS
speech TO the Reichstag last month the
German Chancellor made certain frank
statements regarding the importance to
the Empire of the mouth of the Khine
which sounded ominously for Hollands
future. No wonder that the Dutch take
the statement that this is war for the
rights Of small nations with considerable
reservation.
Most serious Of all, however, is the reve-
lation made the other day by prominent
Dutch journalist. 1t has caused sensa-
ton. but it is a sensation below the sur
face, ignored by the Dutch Government
and the Dutch press alike. The well-known
newspaper, "De TELEGRAPH" alone has re-
ferred openly TO the matter, with a refec-
ton upon the policy which refrains from
asking an official explanation in the right
quarter. The story, as told, is that the
journalist in question was approached with
a proposal that he prepare the Dutch peo-
pie gradually for an occupation OF their
chief harbors. If this report be true, the
only deduction to be made is that, contrary
TO a growing belief, Germany does not yet
consider the invasion of England as an
impossibility. Quite the reverse.

OLD LADY
FEELING fine
After Taking -Four Bottles OF
Cardui, The WOman's Tonic.

Golden, Ill.-"Having used Cardui,
the woman's tonic, in my family, for q
number Of years." writes Mrs. Kate
Metz, Of this town, "and always with
such good results, feel it my duty to
write you about it, so that you may
publish my letter.
My mother is living with me, and
she is 81 years old. For the last three
or four years, she has been troubled q
great deal with cramping spells, and
for days at a time, she would have 9
severe headache.
She read of how much Cardui has
helped other women who were sick
and ailing, and decided to give It q
trial. She began taking 1t three times
a day, and since then has been getting
along simply fine.
Mother only used four bottles Of
Cardui, but she is no longer troubled
with the severe headaches, and her
stomach is so much stronger that she
can eat most anything.
We both feel that any lady who 10
not strong and we'll, would be greatly
benefited by the use Of Cardui."
