A sensation was created here Sunday by he an nouncement that Kmperor Francis Joseph had threatened to abdicate un less his wishes In reference to army reform In H unitary were carred out. There, has been an acute crisis In Hungary for three weeks on this ques tion, which Involved, among; other things, the Emperor's right to call out the reservists when necessary, which It was proposed to abrogate. . Premier Aagrily gammoned. The Emperor summoned Count Khuen Hederlvary. Hungarian Premier, from Budapest on Friday, and. learn ing that the Prime Minister had failed to reconcile the divergent views held by the members of bis Cabinet, said to film: "You know that I have always ob served the constitution. I have been on the throne 4 years, for 45 of which I have been constitutional King of Hungary. I have watched her rise and grow with pleasure. She never bad a better friend than 1. but now they want to attack my sovereign rights and treat me with distrust. If these resolutions are not abandoned nothing remains for mn but to abdicate."

The resolu tions must be abandoned Immediately or otherwise it will be too late." The Premier said be would summon the Cabinet Council and forthwith he aent message by telephone calling the members together. The Ministers came to Vienna and decided to drop the of fending proposals. Haaaary'a Efforts Persistent. The Imperial threat was the resutt of persistent endeavors on the part of the Hungarians to increase their par liamentary control of the national army. The direct Issue concerned the King's rights to mobilise the reserves, which Hungarian politicians contend he can do only when Parliament has granted the recruiting contingent for the current year. This matter is one of the highest Importance to the whole 'empire, as In the event of parliament ary obstruction preventing the pas sage of the recruiting levy, the King would be unable to call out the re serves as a substitute for the recruits. If the Hungarians' contentions were admitted. The King always has been concilia tory and desirous of avoiding trouble, but npon everything connected with his army he takes a determined stand. GOVERNOR WEST HONORED Silver Matchbox Presented to Com memorate "Oregon First" Trip. Tn recognition of the persistence with which Governor West, while on the Oregon First excursion, refused to obey the urging of F. Weaver, of the excursion committee, to put on his tall hat and frock coat for the cere monial at the site selection for the Oregon building. Mr. and Mrs. Wea ver entertained the Governor Satur day and presented him with a silver matchbox in the form of a tall bat. On it was engraved "Oregon FJrst, March 14. 1S1J." Mr. Weaver constituted himself a censor of styles on the trip to San Francisco and carefully Instructed all of the men In the party to wear the formal tall bat and frock coat during the ceremonials. " His earnest advice was taken to heart by everyone but the Governor, who persisted in wear ing the simple derby that had already beoome a notable feature among the tall hats In the Governors" Special ex cursion. Other members of the party appeared in full formal afternoon re galia. Fate, however, dealt harshly with Mr. Weaver himself, for after having "rounded np" the rest of his party he discovered that he had forgotten to take with him the frock coat he had so carefully instructed all of his fellows to wear. He saved the day. Tor himself, however, by wearing his tall bat and enveloping himself in a long overcoat, leaving those who at tended the site-selecting ceremony to infer that the frock coat was worn beneath It- MONTE CARL0J3AYS QUIET Famous Gambling JMace Sets Vp Cry of Hard Time. PARIS, April 1. A correspondent who has Just made a special Uixestlga lion In the Klvlera for the purpose of finding out the truth about some of the lately much-advertised huge win nings at Monte Carlo, has heard on all sides complaints that the -season has been one of the worst on record, and the play at the Casino was de clared by one of the principals to have been on the most timid scale ever known. As a. matter of fact, the signs Indicate that the popularity of this re sort Is already on the wane. A prominent New York broker be gan rather early in the season in the partnership with a San Franciscan, but did badly later, and. owing to trou ble with a hotel keeper about a dis honored check for IJOOO. was Impris oned until some fellow countrymen clubbed together to pay his debts. Of the smaller losses, there have been plenty. One American woman with an Income of $1,000 was several times this Winter obliged to pawn her Jewelry to keep herself alive. In vestigations proved, that several such losses occurred this season. PEOPLE'S PROGRAMME FINE Many Special Feature at Popular Pla houses Please? Audiences. The People's Amusement Company presented a strong array of attractions Sunday at each of the houses. "The .!rt and Her Trust." a Biograph drama i.f exciting quality, got a band at each performance, and deservedly, for It had a thrill In each foot of film. Four other varied subjects, neatly blended, made a pictorial programme of much strength. "That Trio" sang a snappy song, which was encored, and the add ed attraction. the pretty Gladstone sisters, the Tama Tama lassies, with their neat acrobatic dancing stunt, presented a novelty that struck home and sent the people away well pleased. Four films at tbe Star were all fea tures, particularly 'Nemesis." a tale of rare vengeance; "A Waif of the Sea." the story of a little stowaway: "The Social Secretary." a drama of heart Interest, and a rip-roaring com edy. "That Terrible African Hunter." a satire on those men who hunt wild animals and get no game, but come back to civilization with wonderfully exaggerated tales of their prowess and bravery, were attractive features. Miss Pauline Randal), a singer and Imitator of note, was the added attraction, and offered an unusually neat and attrac tive number. Tomorrow Mr. Holland, a noted performer, will put on. in ad dition to the regular bill, an illustrat ed lecture. "Behind the Bars at Sing Sing." The Oh Joy Theater, the Tlvoll and the Crystal offered entirely new and standard bills and exhibited to capacity crowds. An army of men is working day and night at the new Arcade Theater get ting everything ready for the grand opening next Wednesday evening. AT THE THEATERS "MISS nrDF.LAACK."

HOOT MON! A bonnie Scotch lassie Is Lula Glaser, grown stout since her lovely Dolly Varden days, but un changed tn beauty of voice and radi ance of smile. The prima donna opened at the Helllg last night In "Miss Du delsack." Right here Is a good place to write in that dudelsack Is German for bagpipe. Herr Bergman, having had thrust upon him the care of a Scotch maiden calls her bis little dudelsack be cause she refuses to be a domesticated haus-frou, but chases over the high lands playing on the Scotch Instrument of torture. It's a comedy, fortunately of the American type. Miss Glaser Is delightful aa an ac tress, and her role of the care-free lit tle bagpiper was full of charm. She evidences a highly developed sense of comedy and for that reason her work emanates sincerity. Invariably , she turned her scenes to good advantage. As a soloist Miss Glaser has full, clear voice of surpassing melody. , She sings with charm and ease, us ing her voice with musical Intelligence and In a way that requires no exertion on the part of the listening audience. In Thomas Richards, a singer who affects the slender sapling style and appears smart in hia costume of a Highlander, Miss Glaser has her prin cipal support. Mr. Richards has a re markably pleasing tenor voice, velvet smooth In Its lower register and heard advantageously In both solo and chor us. The other voices were more or less of unimportance, save for one rich baritone, that of David Torrence, heard only with the chores, but of enough significance that It stood out from the others. There is a chorus of pretty girls who sing a great deal and dance very lit tle, a half dosen men who drill and march and sing well; and there is an excellent male chorus, which bunches Itself together tn one act the last one and sings, without accompaniment, selections from the old familiar Scotch melodies, beginning with loved "Annie Laurie" and ending with "Flow Gently, Sweet Afton." The music Is tuneful and in spots is positively stirring. The march of the Mae Humbert is decidedly martial in quality, besides being of the sort of melody that grips and holds. Of Miss Glaser's support, mention needs must go to Baldy Strang, for his cheerful contribution as Sandy, the Mac Hurober piper. His bur-r-rs and his dry humor went a long way toward making everybody comfortable. Mat thew Hanley gave a good character portrait of Herr Bergman with a nat ural guttural. Miss Dudelsack Is well staged snd handsome In Its color scheme. Three scenes are shown, all with' the atmos phere of the heather and bluebells per vading It. It will remain at the Helllg up to and Including Wednesday, with a matinee on that day. JOHN DAY IN NEW YORK BAD CHECK MAX LOCATED BY GOTHAM POLICE.

DECREES NOT RECORDED Vancouver Cases Are Dismissed Af ter Granting of Decree When Attorneys for Plaintiff Fall to File Them. VANCOUVER. Wash., April 1. (Special.) Somewhere In this country are five couples, who were married and who now no doubt believe that they are divorced. One woman, at least, has re-marrled. This state of affairs has been brought about by the negli gence of the attorneys to have the de crees of the court properly filed. Lilly M. Thompson March 3, 1911, brought suit for divorce against Wil liam H. Thompson. Though the case was filed and Judge McMaster said that a decree might be entered. It was not. This case was dismissed March IS, 1912. Adeline Gibson thought she was di vorced from Harry C. Gibson, having brought suit against him July 24, 1907. This case was not dismissed from the docket until March 14, 1910. In' the meantime Mrs. Gibson, thinking that she was free, married George Hutchin son, and she recently brought suit for divorce against him. Then she learned that she had two husbands At the same time. Her explanation was that E. M. Green, her attorney, had secured the decree of divorce for her, and that she received a copy from him. This copy, she said, she took to her father's home, where it was burned when the house was destroyed by fire. . E. M. Green has died. Attorneys in many cases have brought suit, tried the case before the court and have been told that they could take tbe decree and then have failed to file the decree with the clerk of the court. The plaintiffs, being in court and hearing the Judge say that the decree will be, or may be granted, believe that they are free, and have several times not returned to pay the attorney and as a result the decree is not filed. In one case. J. P. Stapleton, an at torney, was paid $5 to begin suit. He filed the complaint, which cost $4, paid the Sheriff's fee of 80 cents, and re turned tbe change, 20 cents, to the plaintiff, expecting to receive fils fee when the decree was granted. Per mission was given to take the decree, but as the plaintiff did not appear, the decree was not placed on record and It was dismissed recently. Others who may think they are di vorced, but who are not. are: Mabel Harrell and Everett Harrell: Albert Spohel and Ellxa Spohel, and Eldora H. Daly and James L. Daly. In all of these cases had the attorney placed the de cree on file and paid the fee after the Judge had signed it, the divorce would have been effective. However, all of the cases have been dismissed and to secure divorces again, new suits must he started. Albert Spohel has done this, as his first case was dismissed April 18. 1911.

In the course of his sermon Mr. DuBols referred to the high character of the yoMng man and the esteem in which he was held by his CATARRH EASILY CONQUERED Germs Destroyed; Discharge Stopped; Sore Membrane Quickly Healed Often Restores Hearing. HYOMEI, a pleasant antiseptic germ destroying, vaporized air breathed over the entire membrane of the. nose and throat and deep into the lungs over the bronchial or air tubes will kill catarrh germs: soothe, and heal the sore ca tarrhal spots and stop the discharge of mucus In a few days. Sprays, douches, snuffs or ointments won't end catarrh because they are not penetrating .enough to get where the germs are. So surely does HYOMEI (pronounced High-o-me), clear up the head and penetrate into the innermost recesses of the entire nasal tract that it very often drives out the catarrhal condi tions in the tubes that connect the ears with the nose and by so doing restores hearing to persons who believed they were destined to be deaf for life. If you have catarrh, dear reader, do not forget that HYOMEI is a wonder ful remedy for catarrh and Is free from cocaine, or any other injurious drug. A complete outfit, which Includes a hard rubber pocket inhaler, costs 11.00, If you already own an Inhaler you can get a bottle of HTOMEI for only 60 cents at pharmacists the world over. employers and friends. He alluded to the tragedy Friday night, saying that If the young men present at the services would devote their energies toward securing the passage of a law which would prohibit the carrying of weapons thereby lessening the probability of other murders, the life of young Stew art would not have been lived in vain. The pallbearers were: Bruce D. Stew art, H. L. Tabb. Orme Dowling, Robert McMurray. Denton Catterlln and Jack Day. The funeral of George Hastings, the second victim of Friday nignts hold up on RIverdale road, will be held this afternoon at 1:80 o'clock from the First Presbyterian Church. Dr. John H.
