PERSIAN MINISTRY FALLS
Washington Diplomatists Puzzled by
COLLAPSE of Cabinet.

Washington, Aug. 15.-The fall Of the
Persian Ministry was announced in a
brief State Department dispatch to-
day, which said that ex-Foreign Minis
ter Wossough el-dau-leh had been or
dered TO organize a new cabinet.
Officials and diplomatists cannot ex-
plain the development, as it was
thought the recent Anglo-Russian
agreement regarding Persia had re-
moved the main cause Of friction.

lFrom The Trihune nurcaul

Washington, Aug. 15.-ln his
efforts to prevent railway tie-up
of the country President Wilson has
used every argument and every
appeal in his power. He has appealed
to the patriotism of the men and the
rlanagers; he has matched Garretson's
picture OF tho overworked employees
with an equally graphic picture Of the
want and desolaton that would follow
in the train of general strike.
When President Wilson entered the
second conference with the brother
hood representatives to-day he had lit
tie hope of any agreement. To
friend who has been in close touch with
the strike developments he is declared
&c have characterized the situation as
the most complicated and most diff
cult he had ever been called upon to
face.
Government Measures Considered.
Determined as he is to prevent a
break if it is humanity possible, the
President is also understood to have
been giving consideration to measures
that would be taken by the government
in case of strike. SO far these could
only be of the most general nature, as
not until the situation arises can its
needs be foreseen. The governments
course will depend largely upon the at
titude taken by the railroads.
Some railway managers have assert
ed that not a single train would be op-
Grated in case of strike. The Penn
svlvania and New York Central com
panies, on the other hand, are declared
ready TO make an attempt TO MAINTAIN
their service. The first effort OF tn
government, it is believed, will be TO
aid these roads to the full extent OF
its power. Troops will be stationed or
trains and in stations, If necessary, 20
prevent interference from the strikers.
Troops Held for Strike Duty.
To-day's order canceling the trans
fer of the remainder of the militia to
the border is believed here to be the
first sign of the Administrations
course, and already it has had its effect:

the railroads may be worked into q
harmonious agreement to which both
sides can subscribe. This radical
change in the demands of the men
would undoubtedly necessitate action
by all the delegates. The President
expects that, and, therefore, it will
probably be announced officially to-day

A Boston woman thinks that much
matrimonial infelicity would be prevented
IL all young couples who are contem-
plating entering the holy estate would
be compelled to go before a commission
and make satisfactory replies to a num-
ber of queries that she suggests. Among
these leading questions that she would
nut TO the matrimonial candidates is
this:
How long have you known each
other?'
wonder what the right answer to
that conundrum is
A man and a woman who had never
been married might say an hour-a DAY
"a week-a year-ten years according
to whatever they were romantic and
innpulsive or matter-of-fact and pru-
dent.
But those who have been married have
found out from their own personal eH-
perience that It doesn't make a particle
of difference how much or how little
previous acquaintance you have had with
the party of the other part before you
were married TO the said party OF the

The truth is that matrimony is one OF

out the best and the worst that Is In US,
and none OF us knows until We have

that what a man or woman is before

night at the Opera House. Popular
prices win be charged.
Mario Cayaradossi, a celebrated mu-
raj painter, and Floria Tosca. sing
er, the painters fiancee, are the lead
ing figures, together with Baron Scar
pia, villain of the play.
The opera opens with the painter at
work on the mural decorations in the
church of San Andrea. painting pic
ture of the Magdalene. Suddenly he
is interrupted by Angelotti, a political
refugee, who implores the painter to
hide him from the police.
Mario agrees, giving the man food
and sending him to his villa for hid
ing. Tosca enters at this moment,
and, suspicious of her lovers confu-
sion, grows jealous.
The police enter and at once sus-
pect the painter Scarpia, who is Sc
cretly in love with Tosca, plans to
take advantage of this suspicion and
ruin the painter.
Mario Is taken and tortured, while
Tosca. being sent for, is allowed to
hear his cries of pain Unable to
bear this agony she tells Scarpia
where the refugee is concealed. Ma
rio Is thrown into prison. and Scarpia
threatens Tosca, telling her that I'M
less she looks with favor on him, her
lover will die. -..".-
She consents, to save Mario's life,
but asks that they be allowed to go
the next day. Scarpia agrees to a
mock execution and writes out the
pass for the lovers. As Tosca takes
the pass she stabs the officer, and
fees to her lover. The execution
takes place as planned, but owing to
Scarpia's treachery it proves to be a
real one. After Mario is killed, Tosea
throws herself from the castle para
