BRINK OF CIVIL WAR
Austria and Hungary Appar
ently Drifting Apart.
CZECHS PROPOSE A TRIPLE EMPIRE

London, Dec. 4. International qoeE
tions have been temporarily overshad
owed by the gravity of the situation in
Austria, where things are as gloomy as
possible. In addition to the imminence
of a civil war, the next few hours may
possibly witness a revolution in the re
lations between Austria and Hungary,
which may mean the reconstruction of
the map of Europe. .
It is hardly an exaggeration to say
that the factions are drawing , up like
contending armies. The Germans have
appealed to their compatriots on both
sides of the frontier, and have apparent
ly prepared to run' all risks to ' keep the
hated Czechs in subjection.
The Czechs make no secret of the fact
that their final aim is to abolish th dual
empire, and to make it a triple empire
by placing Bohemia on an equal footing
with Austria and Hungary. To grant
these demands-would set Hungary on
fire and destroy the present foundation
of the imperial system.
It looks as though the employment of
force is the'only solution of the question,
bnt against' which " faction will it bo
used? .
The question of the provencial aus
glich bill (or arreement to prolong for
a year, instead of ten years, the compact
between Austria and Hungary, pending
arrangements for a longer compact), ie,
if possible, more grave than the threat
ened civil war. The Hungarian diet has
given Baron von Gautshe von Franken
thurn, the Austrian premier, until Mon
day next in which to state whether he
can reasonably expect the ausglich bill
to pass, and, failing a decisive answer.
Baron Bauffy, the Hungarian premier,
will introduce a bill Monday, whereby
Hungary will act independently as re
gards the duties to be levied, continu
ance of commercial relations with Aus
tria and the character of the Austro
Hungarian bank. '
t This compact between the two por
tions of the dual state thus lapses, and
though the status quo may be main
tained temporarily, ' Hungary will es
tablish their claim to right to independ
ently dispose of these questions.
It is easy to see that the victory will
only whet the Hungarian appetite, and
that it will be a short step to the dis
solution of Austria, which, in turn, will
hurl Europe into a furnace of terrible
possibilities. ' !
Apparently the only hope of escape is
that the personal ascendency of the old
emperor will once again enable him to
solve an apparently impossible situation
Failing in this, the reichsrath will be
dissolved and a reign of absolutims will
begin in Austria, and, technically, Hun'
gary will have resumed her independ
ence, the fir.st stop toward a federation
I was - troubled for a long
time with a sore wrist; some
thing the doctors termed aft
open vein. It would break
and the blood would flow in
a stream from it, and I could
find nothing that ,would heal
it until I tried your Happy
Thought Salve. " A small
quantity healed it up nicely.
In fact it .has . been well' and
showed ho signs of -breaking
for over three months, so I
feel it lias " done "perfect work.

, . Something to Know.
It may be worth something to know
that the very oest medicine'for restoring
the tired out nervous system to ' a
healthy vigor is Electric Bitters. This
medicine is purely vegetable, acts . by
giving tone to the nerve centers in the
stomach, gently stimulates . the Liver
and Kidneys, and aids' these' organs in
throwing off impurities 1 in the blood.
Electric Bitters improves the appetite,
aids digestion, and is pronounced by
those who have tried it as the very best
blood purifier and nerve' tonic. Try it.

Bow to Present Pneumonia. .

easily contracted, and if left to-run its

no better temedy to cure a cough or cold
than - Chamberlain's - Cough ..Remedy.
