Both Emperors appeared to be. in good health and fine The most interest features of sharpshooting were witnessed, and expla- nations were given to the Austrian Em- peror by Emperor Willlam and General von Gossler, the Minister of War, and new fleld g explanations made to Imperor Francis Joseph e, and not to his military suite. The | ustrian Emperor was deeply interested | them. The exercises, however, in them- | Ives made a plcturesque spectacle, more especially the part which displayed the new tactes of the field artillery. Emperors Review Troops. Smperors after their arrival at the ogk depot mounted horses and rode past the troops placed in file from the depot to the maneuvers tield. When they arrived there the ordre de bataille was given out, The whole was under the com. mand and direction of Major General von Schmidt, representing the inspector of field artillery. The troops present were a | battalicn of the First Guard Regiment, a battalion of the Second Guard Regimcnt, a battalion compesed of one company each of the Guard Chasseurs and Guard Schuetzen Lehr and a battalion of in- fantry of the sharpshooters’ school, also two squadrons of Life Hussars and a fleld artillery regiment made up from the sixth instruction batteries of field artillery of the instruction school. Each body was in, full war strength, with cartridges aiso, | r time of war. ull strength of a ard Ploneer company also participated. The most remarkable feature, about which Emperor Franc b répeatedly ex- | pressed his admiration, was the exactness of aim shown tr the artillery and infan- | , even at great distances. The Austrian | eror once summoned a general of his sulte and pointed out this feature to him. At the conclusion of the sham battle a parade marched past the Emperc#s. Fran- cis Joseph thanked the officers command- ing for the impressive spectacle witnessed and accorded them high praise. Luncheon was served at the officers’ casino of the field artillery, instruction school.

At the station-housas the mother-in-law refused to unfasten the padlock and the Commissary of Police was obliged to have the chain filed in two. The child was then restored to its mother, despite the protests and sobs of the Baroness. The scene of excitemént ovoked by the dra- matic_incident e Champs Elysees may be in Smoke Shells for French Cannon. An_innovation has introduced in the French artillery service by the de- cision to furnish the guns with a smoke hell. Hitherto the cannon had been pro vided with melinite and shrapnel shells only. This new shell is intended to be launched at an opponent’s artillery which, on bursting, it will envelop in a dense cloud of smoke, thus hampering the re- turn fire. The new shell is the outcome of the introduction of smokeless powaer. The result now aimed at was hrought about by the guns themseives, the firing of which produced a smoke which blinded their own gunners. Experiments - show that this invention creates a sort of veil before the enemy’s artillery. Both the army and navy will be supplfed with these shell; The date of the opening of the American national pavilion in the exposition is now definitely fixed for next Saturday. The interpal arrangement of the pavilion dif- fers from that of other national pavilions, which are generally devoted to a display been #&hibits characteristic of their respective countries. he American building will be given' up to administrative and reception purposes, the idea being to have a sort of club where Americans may fraternize and se- cure information. On the main floor is located a United States postoffice and bu- reau of information. as well as reading and_writing rooms. The postofficais in- tended to be an ohject lesson to EurMpeans of prompt and businesslike handling of postal matters, and will itself form an exhibit of as great gr;\cllnal value as any with which the other national pavilions are crammed. The second floor will be devoted to the various State headquarters, the rooms of which will be handsomely furnished by the Btates of New York, Massachusetts and California, but will be open tq all American citizens. The Commissioners’ reception room will occupy the third floor, while on the fourth will be found the headquarters of the juries and international congressional delegates of the American Chamber of Commerce of Paris, of the women's or- ganization and of the Loyal Legion. The selection of members of the juries has been a matter occupying Commis- sloner Peck's serfous consideration re- Xvery mail has brought him a bunch of petitions and letters from wo- men's organizations in America for ade- |"duke Albrecht in 18 quate representation of women on these Doards. Mr. Peck announces that full ice will be done these claims and that trong proportion of the members of the juries and of the delegates.to the con- gresses will be selected from ‘among wo- men. ~America in this respect wil be far ahead of Buropean nations. France alone will admit the female element in her rep- resentation, but the number of French ‘women jurors will be proportionately only one-fifth of that of American women. . CZAR TAKING CHANCES. Dispenses With Police Protection ‘While Visiting Moscow. TONDON, May 6.—A dispatch from St. Petersburg says that advices recelved from Moscow state that the Czar has or- dered the Chlef of Police to cease all ex- traordinary precautions for his safety, saying: I have come to see my people, not the police of Moscow.'” During his stay at Moscow the Czar has gone about In an open carriage without an escort and without the streets being | 4 cleared for his passage. | | n field marshal general pleases him greatly, the more so because it is a grade seldom awarded, and none_ existed in the Austrian army since the death of Arch- The. military rank thus conferred on Emperor William is higher than his’own in the German army. des this courtesy the Austrian Em- also gave William a magnificent profile of himself, encased in a diamond- studded frame and autographed with the motto 2r Idem” (Always the same).

After his return to RBerlin Francis Joseph paid a number of v f.ater, between 4 and 5 o'clock to the barracks of the Emperor Franci Regiment, which is under his personal | patronage and which is considered one of the crack regiments of Germany. The barracks were splendidly brnamented and decorated. The main gate showed a tri- umphal arch, in the center of which was | a large Austrian imperial crown, and beneath it on velvet the monogram of the regiment. Beside it were masts bearing the Austrian and Hungarian flags, en- twined = with evergreen. The building itself showed appropriate floral decora- tion, and German and Austrian eagles were evervwhere displayed as symbois, The regiment received Emperor Francis Joseph, who was accompanied by Em- peror William, in parade form, drawn up under the command of Lieutenant von Ravah. At 6 o'clock a banquet was served at_the regimental casing for persons. _In~the earlier hours of the ai ternoon Emperor Francis Joseph received delegations from the Austrian clubs of Berlin, with which he conversed in the most alfable manner, in some cases in- quiring about some personal affairs. The Austrians residing in Berlin, altogther some 20,000 persons, gave a splendid ban- quet to-night in honor of Francis Joseph's presence at the Kaiserhof. The Imperial Chancellor, Prince Hohen- lohe, to-day gave a lunchéon in honor of the Austrian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Count_Gulochowskl, in which the Aus- trian Foreign Office officials in Emperor Francis Joseph's suite, and the Austrian Embassador here, Count Szoegeny-Mar- ich, Prince von Hulenburg, Dr. Miquel. resident of the Council of Ministers and russian Minister of Finance; Count von Posadowski-Wehner, Imperial Minister for Home Affairs; Count von Bulow, the Minister of Foreign Affairs; Dr. von Lucanus, chief of Emperor William's Civil Cabinet; Count von Ballestrom, resident of the Relchstafi; Mayor irschner and Baron von Richtenfen, Under Becretary of State for Foreign Af- fairs, were present. Comment of the Press. The Berlin press, commenting to-day on Emperor Willlam's and Emperor Francis Joseph's toasts last evening. are unani- mous in declaring that their utterances made evident the intact and strong char- acter of the dreibund before the world. The Tageblatt, besides. points out that the peculiar nature of ' the ~celebration commemorating the Crown Prince’'s com- ing of age has never before been equaled anywhere, as it is ren."e; a fete of Crown Princes and heirs to the thrones, all of whom have come to pay tribute to the heir to the German empire. This paper algo argues that this demonstrates strik- ingly that the world is convinced that the German empire really means peace. . From the Casino the Emperors drove to the Opera to witness the gala perform- ance of Auber's “Bronze Horse.” The interior and. exterior of the opera-house were prettily decorated with silk and vel- vet draperies, showing the colors of Aus. tro-Hungary, evergreens and fresh roses, the German colors often intertwined with them. The German Emperor has cial plans to make the performance itself en- oyable. Some special new scenery had n painted, fine costumes were provided and during the rehearsal weeks ago his Majest{1 indicated nersonnl.l( the improve- ments he desired. The ballet, which was interspersed through the performance, was likewise fine. Emperor Francis Jo- seph after the performance left a number of costly presents for the women artists and decorations of gold watches or dia- mond pins for the men.
