TRAINS L10SS FOR EMPEROR
Julius Bteth Goes to Abyssinia by Spacial
Invitation.
MAKES HIT WITH AFRICAN POTENTATE
Vequlres Only Three Daya to Hare
Wild Beasts Doing; Some Simple
Tricks Is Well Paid for
Ills Trip.
(Copyright, 1901, by Press Publishing Cs.)
LONDON, March 18. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) Julius
Seeth, whose remarkable performance la a
csge with thirty-one Hons is attracting
much attention, has had many remarkable
experiences, but what he regards at the
most extraordinary was his appearance be
fore King Menelik at the latter' court In
Abyssinia. Seeth was In Zurich when
Menelik's prime , minister witnessed one
of his performances. Ha.waa so Impressed
that he asked Seeth if be would go to
Abyssinia and give an exhibition before
the emperor.
Knowing that King Menelik would give
him a dozen or more lions in payment for
the trip he consented and la 1898 made a
trip to Abyssinia, which lasted live and a
half months. In talking of bis experiences
Seeth said:
"After my presentation to the emperor
he said to the prime minister, 'show kin
the lions,' so we went round the palace to
a little house where the lions were, and
(be prime minister said to the doorkeeper,
'open the door, this gentleman wants to
see the lions.' The doorkeeper aald: 'I
can't open the door, they are toe fero
clous.' "The prime minister said, 'there are
thirty-two, aren't there T' and the door
keeper replied that there were only
twenty-eight left. The door was mads In
two parts, and I opened the top- part
and looked In, and saw all the lions lying
down. When they saw me something hap
pened that you may think curious they
got up and they all slunk off into one cor
ner. "I noticed thst. but I did not notice that
the emperor had followed us and was
standing behind us. I opened the lower
part of the door end walked in among the
Hons. I stayed there about five minutes
and then rame out. The euipror was so
. astoulshed he did not know whit to say;
he had been quite sure I would be torn to
pieces. He thought it was magic.
"When his majesty recovered from his
astonishment he shook hands with me
he was so delighted and he Invited me
into the palace to have breakfast with
him.
"Later the prime minister came to me
and said the king had asked If I would
train a Hon to do some little thing not
much. I chose three Hons, and In eleven
days had trained them to do the see-saw, to
He down, to stand on a pedestal and to
jump over my leg.
"Then I went and told the prime min
ister that I had got a little thing ready,
and next morning the king came and saw
the Hons do their tricks, and he was so
delighted that he could not find expression
for It. He thought it something; wonder
ful, and he gave me the best decoration
ever given to a European, and which is
usually only given to generals who have
been very brave. It Is a large cuff made of
gold and covered with precious stones." '
Seeth has been a trainer of wild animals
tor twenty-three years, beginning when but
It years old, in his father's menagerie at
St. Petersburg, -
"Jaguars and tigers are the most difficult
animals to deal with," he said. "They have i
nasty tempers. We call the Hon the king '
of beasts, and so he is. He is more noble
tempered than all the others. He Is not like
the tigers and Jaguars, always thirsty for
blood. A good-natured Hon is Just as
docile as a dog. The pet of my entire
aggregation is Menelik, given me by the
king.
"The value of an untrained Hon Is from
11,250 to $1,750. When they are trained
they are worth more. It yon were to put
$10,000 down on that table I would not sell
you my pet, Menelik he is so intelligent
and good-natured, and understands every
word I say. Lions are very like children
with most of them kindness Is the only
thing, but here and there yon get one that
Is bad tempered and must have the whip.
"I have tea men, but I find It best to
feed the lions myself, and do most things
for them. Every morning Immediately
after breakfast I go In to see how they
are and brush them down. They are very
Jealous creatures you would be astonUhed
and if I pet Menelik too much the others
become unhappy, so that I have to ge and
pat them, too, to show them it is all right.
Altogether, I have trained 300."
trothal Kubellk gave a concert in the great
muBlc hall. Few of the thousands present
knew he was engaged to marry the beauti
ful young woman who sat in the front box
near the stage with her father, but many
noticed her extraordinary good looks and
the undisguised dt.ight Kubellk'a music
gave her.
Kubellk will marry in July, 1904. when
ha Is 24. Meantime he will have built and
furnished in Vienna a house which be
means to occupy with his young wife dur
ing the pauses between his tours. Kub
ellk remained with his betrothed one day
only. The next day he set out on a tour
through Germany, and Countess Czaky left

VIENNA. March 28. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) No royal
betrothal could arouse half the Interest in
Vienna that is awakened by the engage
ment ot Kubellk to Countess Cxaky-Bxell.
The famous violinist Is 23 years old, the
countess is 22, and they have been des
perately in love three years. When
Kubellk waa in Uebrecsln on bis first teur
through Hungary, not many months after
bis extraordinary taleut bad been discov

dent von Bxell of the Hungarian Senate,
and there the llhyear-old daughter Marian
fell in love with the violinist. Ehe was
then betrothed to the son of an Illustrious
Hungarian family, Count Koloman Ciaky.
She tried to get out ot the engagement, but
her betrothed refused to let her go and
she married htm. Countess Csaky made no
secret of her infatuation, cerresponded
with the object of her lovs and led her
husband and her father such a life that
they saw no other way out ot the difficulty
but to fulfill her wish for separation.
The Sxells are Protestants and the mar
riage had been performed in the Protestant
church of Debreczln, ao it waa possible for
Countess Marian to think of a second mar
riage. Then she came to Vienna with her
father and saw her beloved violinist again

NOT ALL THE HIGH ART IS OLD
Clever Mea Succeed la Foollnax the
' Beat of the Expert In
France.
(Copyright, 1908, by Press Publishing Co.)
PARIS, March 28. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) The
French minister of fine arts, M. Chaumlo,
has ordered a searching exauvna i"n of the
contents of all the state museums, and
some more startling exposures ot forgeries
and deceptions are looked for.
The revelations which led to the with
drawing of . the "fake!" tiara ot Saltap
harnes from the Louvre caused the big
gest scandal ever known In : the Paris
world ot art.', The fact that the state ex
perts have been compelled to admit that
what they certified was a unique historic,
masterpiece Is only an Impudent fraud,
casts much discredit on the value ot ex
pert opinion.
All this recalls the report published
months ago In the World that J. P. Mor
gan's collection includes several Imita
tions. The Austrian dealer who sold the
tiara to the Louvre also disposed ot sev
eral articles to a London Jeweler, who
sold them to Mr. Morgan, who later pre
sented them to the Metropolitan Museum
In New York.
Rachumowsky, the Russian engraver who
fabricated the tiara, says he made It in
1898, and offers for $250 to cay his expenses
to come from Odessa to Paris and pro
duce proofs of his assertions.
Herrmann, the Vienna dealer who suc
ceeded in selling the tiara to the Louvre,
came to Paris with a partner named Antol
Vogel. As soon as the museum paid the
first half of $40,000 It had been agreed for
the tiara, Vogel took a train for Vienna,
fearing discovery of the fraud. Some
years later he had the audacity to return
here and try to dispose of several other
counterfeit antiquities.
Close exsmtnatlon of the works In ths
publlo collections In Paris resulted In the
i hasty removal of many pictures and curios
j to the state lumber rooms. A portrait of
Rembrandt, "by himself," in the famous
Dutult collection, Is now pronounced to be
; the work of bis pupils. The genuineness
of another world-famous picture, "The
Mills," by Hobbema, is also caMcd in ques
tion, and a collection of supposed art por
celain Is now admitted to be worthless.
LONDON, March 28. "I don't think
there are any really good forgeries of art
treasures In the market at the present
time," a British museum official says In a
published Interview.
"J. Plerpont Morgan practically cleaned
up the last big output. It is shocking, the
way Mr. Morgan Is Induced to pay small
fortunes for ' forged works. Mr. Morgan
throws money around so lavishly that -other
collectors, who, perhaps, know a little
more about antiquities, but possess less
cash, cannot compete with him. The 'Brit
ish museum is not Justified la wasting pub
llo funds In such a manner, and dealers
often say, when tbey quote an enormous
price: 'Mr. Morgan paid so and so. We
cannot be expected to let things go for
less than his market price.'
"Mr. Morgan buys under expert advice,
but experts, even when disinterested, have
been deceived. He exhibited a Titian 'Holy
family' at the Royal academy last year
which was generally denounced as a for
gery. He paid $125,000 for it. Recent dis
closures as to a secret factory in London,
where Romney and Gainsborough copies
are turned out to perfection, strengthens
the widespread opinion among connois
seurs that Mr. Morgan's $150,000 'Lost
Duchess' Is an Imposture."
Collectors here, who are eomswhat Jeal
ous and resentful ot Mr. Morgan's lavish
employment of his resources, are saying
that it is fortunate that he has hesitated
about paying the American tariff on his
acquisitions until the genuineness of many
doubtful articles is established.

PARIS, March 28. (New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) The
French commander, Chabal, captured at
Mars-la-Tour in the war of 1870 a Prussian
flag, which was divided among his men,
the flagstaff being presented to the museum
of the Hotel -dee Invalides.
Commander Chabal's dream now is to
collect all ths scraps ot the flag, re

under whose orders .Chabal served, has
Just presented the first morsel, which had

TRIP FILLED WITH PERIL
Dash to tha South Made by ths Crew
of D.tcoTery.
MANY NARROW ESCAPES FROM DEATH
One Man Falls Over Edge of a Preci
pice and Another Sleeps tor
Honrs I'nder a Snow
Drift.
LYTTLETON, N. Z.. March IS. The
sledging parties -of the British . Antarctlo
ship Discovery, whose experiences were re
ported by the relict ship Morning on the
tatter's arrival here Wednesday, engaged
tn much harzardous work.
The dash southward of Captain Scott of
Discovery, as a result of which he
reached latitude 82.17 south, was attended
by great hardships and extra strain. The
softened snow told quickly on the dogs,
which soon all died. The party had only
a month's provisions when they left tha
southernmost depot and. therefore, It wss
Impossible to continue southward without
Inviting disaster.
The return Journey was most trying. The
party was on short rations for five days and
its progress was seriously Impeded by fog.
Lieutenant Shacklcton burst a blood vessol
In one of his lungs and only bis pluck
pulled him through.
The crew of Discovery Is described as
having palpably aged owing to bard llv.ng,
but all are well and cheerful.
Another party under Lieutenant Barnes
was returning from a sledge Journey to
ward Cape Crozler, when a blizssrd struck
It, ten miles from home. Barnes abandoned
his tsnts and sledges and left the dogs to
find their own way to the ship. Owing to
the blinding snow Barnes and his compan
ions were unable to see two yards ahead.
While they were descending a slope one of
the party disappeared and members of the
expedition discovered themselves to be on
the edge ef a huge precipice.
Bleeps I'nder a Saow Drift.
Another member of the party fell from
sheer weariness and was not missed for
some time and he was eventually given up
as lost by ths rest of his companions, who
searched for him. But it developed that
the man alept under a drift for thirty-six
hours and he rejoined the ship unharmed.
The members of another sledge expedi
tion, under Lieutenant Armltage, were
away fifty-two days. 7hey attained an al
titude of 9,000 feet and descended on an
Ice slide to a glacier 2,000 feet below.
The descent was perilous. The sledgrs at
one part of the descent covered 1,300 feet
In a minute and ten seconds, their oc
cupants hanging on by straps to the back
ot the sledges. Lieutensut Armltage fell
Into a crevasse and bung thirty feet be
low the surface. But for the fact that
he was harnessed to the other be would
have fallen 2,000 feet.
At Cape Adair Discovery found Bor
cbgrevlnks' house tn a good state of pres
ervation. There were several esses of
scurvey during the trip, but they recov
ered on the return of the sufferers to the
ship.
There were many complaints about the
tinned provisions. - t . ,
The places ot Lieutenant Shackleton and
the others who returned on Morning were
not filled, as Captain Scott still has forty
one men In the crew on Discovery.

LOBECK - M'DONALD CONTEST
Conntlnar of Ballots to Be Contluned
Neat Week, Deferring; Crim
inal Trials.
Tha Lobeck-McDonald contest for the
commlsslonershlp of the Fifth commissioner
district was not finished at the expected hour
yesterday. At 1 o'clock all but six ot the
twenty-five precincts had been counted with
a net gain ot one for Lobeck oxer the county
court count, but the decisive precincts In
which Judge Vlnsonhaler threw out so many
ballots because of Judges' and clerks' dere
liction ot duty have not been reached and
will not be until the count Is resumed Mon
day. The effect of this prolongation of the
hearing is that the trial of Thomas Mc
Ouigan for murder of John Murphy, which
was to have begun Monday morning, will
be deferred. After the McQulgan trial Pat
rick Shea, charged with killing John Rezeke,
is to be tried.
Because of these two trials Judge Estelle
announced that he would not give until two
weeks hence hU decision, promised for to

A Conversation With Climax
When a Professional Man Talks, ire
to the Point.
Several famous American physicians and
surgeons were recently dining together
after a session of a national meeting held
In New York.
"I had a remarkable case this winter,"
remarked a surgeon present, whose name
as a specialist in rectal diseases Is world
wide. "My patient was a woman, a deli
cate, nerve racked creature, who had .suf
fered so fearfully from ths ravages ot
hemorrhoids that the knife seemed the
only solution ot ths trouble, aud yet her
heart was weak and her strength ao wasted
by this fearful diBesse that we dared not
operate.
"I had ceased my visits to her for a time
and bad given up all hope, when one morn
ing she entered my office looking like a new
woman; the p&!or had divi'ereu and Iho
lines of suffering were nearly eradicated
from ber face. She told me that she had
purchased a proprietary medicine, namoly.
Pyramid Pile Cure, and that from the first
Insertion ot the suppositories sbe had ob
tained Instant relief. I made an examina
tion and found the rectum in excellent con
dition, the inflammation entirely disap
peared aud the swollen veins In normal con
dition. "I was so Interested In Iho case that I
had the remedy analyzed carefully and was
so pleased with the result of ti analysis,
finding a combination of the most healing
and scientific remedies preseut In the Pyra
mid 11 le Curs and In more convenient
form than I could aecura them otherwise,
that I wrote to the Pyramid Drug Company
at Marshall, Mich., a.klng for their booWlot
on Piles, their Nature, Cause and Cure,
(which by the way is sent free.) and have
since used their Pile Cure extensively and
with best renults In my practice. I do not
hesitate to recommend It to you all. It
will often save your patient from a painful
surgical operation which In many casta r.
suits fatally." "
