She presides at the splendid court eererosnlals with a winning gracs that has ndeared her to all Austrian, hut her mils Is full of a pathetlo and appealing melancholy. Mother of the future emperor, the con sort of Prlncs Otto Is yet one ot the un happiest princesses In Europe. Ths Influ ence of ths emperor hlmaelt Is all that has kept her from leaving her husband and It Is well known that she Is a sacrifice to ths welfare of the stats. At leaat three times ah has been hardly dlasusded from suing for divorce because of her husband's Ill treatment of her. .It Is she who opens all ths court balls which so astonish visitors, not only by their magnificence, but also by the early hours prescribed. At 7:10 ths guests begin to arrive, though the ball room Is not thrown open till 8:30. Ths arrival of the lord chamberlain at o'clock Is ths signal that ths Imperial party approaches. A wavs of his staff of offloe clears a pathway In ths middle of the room and, preceded by ths master of ceremonies,, ths emperor, conducting the archduchess, appears. While shs holds court among ths ladies, ths ruler mingles with his guests. If young girls ars to bs presented to the arch duchess. Otto receives them In an adjoin ing audience room.

Folate of White oad Gold. . Ths magnificent apartment, all whits and gold, presents a scene never to bs forgotten. Its multitudinous electric lights shine on ths dassllng uniforms of Hungarian and Polish dignitaries, the gaudy rostumss of ths diplomatic corps and the .superbly ar rayed Austrian women, who delight In a splendor ot Jewelry that heightens ths ef fect ot their sumptuous toilets, . . But through all this gorgeous display ths archduchess moves with a faraway dignity that, whlls It is In the picture, is not of ths festivity she dominates. Ths wife of the wild nephew of Francis Joseph, It Is asserted, has been struck twice by her royal spouse when he waa In Ills cups, and that ones at least ths emperor wun nis own hand, in ths presence of all the commanding officers of ths garrison, repaid Otto blow for blow.

Hiram Maxim thinks ths Marconi system win not bs a dangerous competitor ot the cable companies for transatlantic business. Hs argues chiefly oa the difficulty of securing secrecy or evsa certainty, ssylng: . Aa enemy in time of war may set up a wavs making apparatus of very great power, giv ing off waves of all amplitude and making It absolutely imposslbls to work any system of wireless telegraphy. The attuning of a I transmitter or receiver to a certain pitch is only feasible to a limited extent, say a doien different kind ot waves. - Suppose In war two hostile fleets were concerned, number on' depending on ths ordlnsry system of signalling, number. two. depending oa wireless telegraphy. It would v.. A.iti tit nrnvlda fleet number one with an apparatus for making such 4 eon- fusion of waves as to render the apparatus ot fleet' number two absolutely useless. Marconi now baa ths atmosphere to hlm- self, but when others enter the Hold and all ars making their littls waves, though they may not interfere with ons another, nevertheless ths operator who receives them and reduces them to ths English languaga wUl have rather a difficult task. Tho Marconi system undoubtedly has enormous value, chiefly for ships signalling sach other or with shore during fogs. Cable companies and Marconi can both live In ths ssms world In perfect accord. Ons sys tem will not Interfere with tho other. The Marconi can perform new. services without nroachlng on the csbls companies."

In olden times all ths church bells were rung before a starts and a cannon wss fired. , The people believed the , noise prevented baij'cl trvm bursting. Experiments with r cannon were made lately In the wine country along the Dan ube, near Krems, on a aystsm Invented In St. . Katherlne, Styrla, by O.

In the clouds, and horlsontally, when a whirling air ring Is formed, which prevents frost' from touching ths plants. The sclentiflo observation upon which these experiments sre based is as follows: Prof. Kreuschnsr of Darmstadt arranged two poles of an electric current In a bowl of water in such a manner that one came up In the water nearly to tha surface, the other came from above nearly to the sur face, but without touching It. In the place where the two wire ends nearly met a tun nel was formed In the water, from out of which tiny drops of rsln were thrown with violence. When the bowl wss surrounded with a wall of paper It waa found that ths tiny watsr drops were grains of Ice hall, In fact. ' This sxpsrlmsnt always succeeds when the surrounding air la absolutely quiet. The slightest disturbance of the air, a move ment ot the hand or heavy breathing. stops ths forming ot les and drops ot rain only fly about. Just before a hailstorm begins there Is absolute quiet Is ths air, an ominous stsnd- stlll of ths atmosphere, and it Is then that Ice la formed in ths clouds. The firing of cannon disturbs ths air and prevents ths forming of hall. Ia Wlndlch Felstrlti, In Styrla, Mayor Stlger has taken ths greatest Interest In thess experiments, and as esrly as 1897 hs Induced the community to establish thirty six firing ststtons.

OVATION TO KUBEL1K Omaha Greetg the Great Violinist with ft Boar of Approval. BOHEMIANS HONOR THEIR COUNTRYMAN Interest Expressed in Tangible u Well as Audible Form. ENGAGEMENT AN ARTISTIC TRIUMPH Audience that Picks Bojd's Theater Demonstrative but Dignifiod.. MANIFESTATIONS OF DELIGHT ARE MANY Kabcllk Chats with Visitors aad Kb. Joys Reeeptioa Behind Scenes with latelcaed Heartiness His Pleas for Today. When Jan Kubellk, violin virtuoso, msde his graceful bow at Boyd's theater last night and drew hla maglo bow across ths strings he played for sn audience that filled the house from the cheirs usually occupied by the orchestra to ths rsmotsst sest In the lofty gallery and even for a tew others who were In their own home blocks away, with their ears st their telephones. For his performsnce Kubellk's managers received 82.000, but the admission totsl wss nearly 83,800 snd the local commutes ot Bohemlsns have, above all expenses sbout . 8800 as the nucleus of a fund with which it la proposed to educate two students at Prague, where Kubellk studied. Kubellk Is a Bohemian and It wss dis tinctly a Bohemian night. Everywhere were seen buttons besrlng the violinist's face snd always with ths rsd and whits of his native land entwined about it. There were Bohemians In soms ot ths boxes, all over the lower floor and up to the roof, many of them contesaedly In a theater for tba first tlms In many, many years. But the applauding did not devolve entirely upon them. It came spontsneously snd from everywhere whenever Kubellk paused, aad It would not cease until he "had appeared again and again, and played at leaat 'one encore. Society was there and was fired with a new delight that msds dainty hands as active aa the larger, rougher ones In expressing ths common joy. There wss dignity In all the demonstrations, however, . and the nearest approach to an Impassioned outburst wss wbsn a masculine voice far up In the balcony aang out a lusty "Bravo!" Coming; of tho Crowd. The first Installment of the crowd came to the theater at 7 o'clock, but the doors were not opened until a half hour later. At 8 o'clock carriages deposited the smart set, and for the next twenty mtnutss tba lobby of the theater was filled with thoss waiting to entsr. 1 Kubellk himself was ready before the crowd, was. He csme to tba stsge door promptly at 8 o'clock in company with the members of his party and his first words were "Hello, old maa, I'm glad to see yOu," addressed to a friend who waa awaiting him. A minute later he stepped Into his dressing room, attended by bis valet, bear lng tha invaluable violin and permitted tbe removal of hla fur-lined overcoat and the aeroy nat that bad covered his long black . hair. His "primping" required less than a minute, and when be emerged his excellent fitting black dress suit was noted to bear ' not a single ornsment other than a smalt gold chain strung from ons pocket of bis vest to ths other.. His cheery smlls waa constant and his cordiality so genersl as to incorporate even the colored guardian ot ' tbe stsge door. , ' Kobellk Before Golnaf On. His valet brought him his violin and bow and the virtuoso took them as tenderly and lovingly as a mother would her babe. But he did not sound a nots until bsck In his Crossing room with the door shut. There he drew the bow gently across the strings less than a doien times snd was ready. But the crowd was not, for the tardy ones had not been taken to their seats and rapidly back and forth behind the scenery and his fingers wers ever on the strings, twitching nervously. Ths smile fsded from his lips, a slight perspiration started and when he spoke at all It was a hurried whist -. per 'and tbe words were Bohemlsn. vThs strain was telling and finally he walked, almost rsn, to Julius Skrlvan, tbs calm' old lmpresssrio who "discovered" him three years ago when he was ' In hla 19th year and who haa been with him con stantly ever sines, both In Europe and America. Skrfvsn understood and grasped tbe hand (It was ths left) which ths boy extended to him sod held It firmly for some . minutes, rubbing tbs fingers just enough to accelerats ths circulation. Kubellk's Up parted In a smile that forever refuted the assertion that "hs hss never loved" aad hs bscsms cslmer. Even the foot encsssd In dainty slippers cut so low thst abova ths knotted ribbon was dlsplsyed several Inches of hla drop-stitched hoss, csased to pat tbs floor ao nervously and hs thrust his instrument between bis knees to adjust a brldgs that already seemed as correctly righted as a bridge could ever be.. Stands Like a Soldier. When all was still In tha auditorium. Mr. Gorllts, managing the tour for Dsslel Frohman, beckoned Kubellk and the boy faced the stags liks a soldier with hesd erect and shoulders back. His fingers twltchsd hsrder thsn ever and ths smlls hsd sgsln vanished, but bs was calm and when hs stspped out Into ths glars of the lights It wss with a firm step thst brought a sigh of both prlds and relief from his friends In ths wings. From thst moment Kubellk wsa master, not only of himself, but of all about him. A wavs of applause swept tip to him in greet ing, another and even louder one followed at his first pause, and whin, twenty-five minutes after hs went en, hs cams bsck Into ths wings ths auditors wsre ssndlng sfter him the roar ot such a dsmonstratloa as haa not bsea heard in ths thsatar In years. And Kubellk was happy. His smlls wss radiant and through the rest of the evening he laughed and joked with all about him and the boyishness of his nsture wss uppermost. Welcome from Coantrymoa. ' After hla first number a floral lyre, tbs gift of Bohemlsns of Omshs, wss plscsd upon ths stsge and formally presented by Miss Helen Paul'k. After tbe third number be was confronted on his way back into the wlnga by Miss Annie Kotera and Miss Mary Kucera. Tbs former recited In Bohemlsn a poem of welcome written for tbe occasion by Rev. J. Vranek, pastor of ths Bohemlsn church of Omaha. Ths lattsr spoks briefly for the Catholic societies of Omaha and gave a handsome boquet to Mr. Freml, ths accompanist.
