Emperor Yoshihito’s Temperature
101.48 Saturday Afternoon;
Was 99,2 Friday Night.
TOKIO, May 24.—Although there
nas an abatement early to-day of
approximately four degrees in his
fever, the temperature of Emperor
Yoshihito, who is ill of pneumonia,
later rose more than two degree*. It
was 193.48 degree* this afternoon.
The following bulletin wa® issued
this morning from the Aoyoma pal
ace, signed by two of the eight phy
sician* who are attending the imper
ial patient:
“His majesty has passed a favor
able night and shows encouraging
improvement. His temperature i9
89.2, pulse 76 and respiration 36.”
New® that improvement was shown
in the condition of the Mikado caused
great rejoicing throughout the em
pire. but especially In this city. Pray
er* of thanksgiving were offered up
and a ministerial order was pro
claimed allowing tire theaters to re
open.
Empress Sadaka spent several
hours at the bedside of her husband
to-day. She insists upon ministering
to him and was much rejoiced to
learn of his change for the, better.
Congratulation* From U. 8.
The bulletin expressing news of
the Mikado’s Improvement was car
ried to the foreign office, where the
Cabinet was in session discussing the
diplomatic controversy with the
United States over the California
ant!-alien land law.
Arthur Blanchard Bailey, Charge
d’Affaires of . the United States Em
bassy, conveyed his congratulations
to the imperial family that the Mika
do showed improvement and that he
hoped it would continue.
Special services will be held in the
Christian churches to-morrow’.

Discovers.
If that gold bearing, sliver toned
voice of Enrico Caruso’s ever fails
him. all he will have to do, accord
ing to the latest medical lore, is to
go around tapping himself on the
hones and the vibrations that result
will be musical. He can tap hi*
knuckles and get a pleasing jingle,
whereas, with most folk, the result
would only be a discord.
Music, according to the new au
thority, is built into the frame. If
one’9 chest and bones and throat are
put together on a musical basis, there
Isn’t any power on earth that can
keep the owner of the melodiously
built frame from being musical.
Dr. William Lloyd, the famous
London throat specialist, found the
advantage that Caruso has over the
rest of mankind when he made a re
cent Y examination. He found that
Caruso had physical characteristics
that’allowed him to produce musical
sounds in almost unlimited volume
and that the quality of the structure
of the throat was just as muon

Music in His Bones.
The chest capacity of the singer
gave him unusual aid in work while
the peculiar construction of tile en
tire throat machinery enabled him to
let loose vibrations at a higher rate
than almost any other subject.
Then the doctor found that Caruso
had music in his bones.
The simple tapping of the Caruso
knuckles resulted in a vibration that
was different from, that of an ordinary
mortal. The pitch of the vibration
produced by a blow Is higher and
more resonant.
The distance from the front teeth
to the -vocal cords is half an inch
more than in most tenors, and the
vocal tube, the doctor found, was cf
unusual length.
In other words, Caruso was just
built that way when it came to sing
ing.
The suggestion that comes from
the doctor's report on the plans and
specifications of the Caruso throat
and mouth is one that might give
the commercial age a chance to lo
cate future singers without the slight
est trouble.
All that would be necessary would
be for the experts in throat construc
tion to go around to the schools and
examine the children, sort them out
In bunches and let them develop.
Easy to. Pick Artists.
It would be perfectly easy to pick
out the boys whose bones, vocal
cords and throat material had the
tenor elevation, while the basso and
baritone, chaps might be known by
the way their bones were set.
So little Willie Jones would not
have any trouble knowing what his
future will be. He could tell the
teacher that there was no use trying
to pound electrical engineering or
cube root into him, because the school
doctor had picked him out as a singer
If he loses famous golden-toned voice, medical lore declares
by merely rapping his bones a pleasing harmony can he devel
oped, where, if tried on others, only discord would result.
who could not escape his future even
if he tried.
The veriest chump of a teach r
would know that if the front teeth
of one of her pupils had half an inch
the start on the other pupils in the
race from tlie vocal co»ds the owner
of the unhandicapped teeth had a
cinch on becoming great as a
warbler.
On the other hand the young men
and young women who have been
spending their money at conserva
tories tryir- to cultivate voices that
are not and never will be will have
a chance to find out just where they
stand in the realm of art.
They can go to the doctor and con
fess that they have spent $1,728 try
ing to get in the genius class and get
an expert line of dope on the pros
pects of ultimately landing before the
footlights with the bouquets coming
over in hunches.
Great Aid to Critics.
The scientific statement is that
there is a fixed and definite relation
between the construction of the bones,
cords, muscles and tissues and the
volume and character of sound that
the owner of the said hones can emit.
Once in possession of the scale, a
flexible foot rule will answer all of
the purposes of a musical critic.
Naturally, the critic might profit by
the development of science and place
his art upon the exact status of
mathematics by closing his criticism
of a singer in some fashion like this:
“Miss Smith-Jones-Brown cannot
sing. That we may not be accused
of bias, we submit that it is only
three inches and seven-sixteenth®
from the southwest corner of the eye
tooth to the extended arc subtended
by the vocal cord; hence, quod erai
demonstrandum, she hasn’t a ghost
of a chance to sing because it would
take four-sixteenths of an Inch more
of space to even get in the class
where the lady could gargle songs
through a megaphone at a moving
picture show.’’
But that is getting science down to
a point that is beyond the average
man and woman, and, besides, it ! s
all based upon the statement of a
doctor, and doctors do not agree.

E
REAL ‘KNEE JERK’
Man From Monk Offers to Tell
Beavers Just How Far Patrol
man Walks in a Night.
Georgia has produced another ce
lebrity in Harry Winthrop, of Monk.
Ga. Investigation shows that Monk
is on the Atlanta and West Point
Railroad, near Fairburn, not a great
distance from Atlanta. It now will
take its place in the hall of fame as
the home of a famous Inventor.
The Monk man has invented the
“knee Jerk.” This is not the knee
Jerk that alienists use in testing in
sane criminals, but is a mechahical
device to record the distance walked
by policemen on their heats. It is
termed the “knee jerk,” says the In
ventor, for the reason that it Is
strapped to the knee and registers
every time a step is taken by the
wearer.
All of this information came out
Friday in a letter received by Chief
of Police Beavers from Winthrop. who
urged that his invention he tried out
by the Atlanta police department. He
explained that he has already taken
up the matter with the New York
police department, but, being a Geor
gian himself, he is anxious for At
lanta to “get in on the ground floor."
He made the proposition to equip the
entire police department of 260 men
with "knee jerks" at $50 each. The
regular price, he suggested, is $100
each. It will, therefore, cost Atlanta
but $12,500 to ascertain the distance
each policeman walks on his beat.
"The knee jerk registers only when
the policeman is actually walking--
there is no chance for him to make it
register while sitting or lying down,’
writes the inventor.
He added:
"The knee jerk is something on the
order of a speedometer, although not
quite so heavy It is an accurate
gauge to show whether policemen are
properly patrolling their heats.”
As Chief Beavers chucked the let
ter in a waste basket, he laughingly
remarked that he didn't think At
lanta quite ripe yet for the “knee
jerk.”
"1 think I’ll w’rite to Mr. Winthrop.
however, and suggest that he give
Monk the honor of first trying out his
wonderful Invention.”

ED WALSH’S DIGESTION .
WRECKED BY “SPITBALL”
CHICAGO, May 24.—■ Excessive use of
the spitball ha* injured Fid Walsh's di
gestion and has thus affected his condi
tion so that he has not vet reached hi*
best form this year, according to Dr.
James H. Blair, club physician of the
Chicago Americans, in a report made or
the pitcher's condition.
Walsh is quote*! as saying his arm is
"far from right," and attributing his
success in the game with New York last
Sunday to his “heart work."
According to the doctor, saliva needed
for Walsh's digestion has been used on
the ball. With care the pitcher may be
in his old-time form in a month.

Love and Diplomacy Enter Into
Imperial Match at Berlin.
Royalty in Attendance.
Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
BERLIN. May 24.—Scenes of be
wildering brilliance to-day marked
the marriage of Prince Ernest Au
gust, of Cumberland, descendant of
the Hanoverian kings and heir to a
fortune of $200,000,000, to Princess j
Victoria Luise, only daughter of Em- |
peror William, of Germany.
The capital wa* en fete and a gala
day was made of the occasion
throughout most of the German em
pire. The rain, which fell at inter
vals. failed to dampen the enthusiasm
of the thousands who packed all the
streets.
Emperor William. Czar Nicholas,
King George of England and les®er
royalties were cheered to an echo
as they drove to the chapel for the
religious ceremony which followed
the civil service in Brandenburg
Hall, an adjunct of the Potsdam
marble palace.
Gorgeous pomp attended the wed
ding. in which entered a large ele
ment of diplomacy as well as true
love. By the marriage to-day is
brought to an end ths long feud
which has existed between the reign
ing house of Hohenzollern and the
house of Guelph, f rom which the
Prince Ernest August comes.
Religious Rites Brilliant.
The religious ceremonies far out
shone the civil rites in brilliancy.
This service began at 5 o’clock in
the presence of the greatest gather
ing of royalty for a decade or more.
At 5 o’clock the court marshal en
tered the chapel, which had already
been filled during the procession of
the bridal party from Potsdam to
Berlin, and tapped three times with
his staff to signify the approach of
the wedding party.
First entered the Marshal of the
Imperial Household, Count August.
Fulenburg. with his staff, followed by
a long line of chamberlains. Next
came the “bride’s cavaliers,” three
young princelings selected for manly
grace and beauty, immediately fol
lowing the “cavaliers” came the bride
leaning upon the atm of the stalwart
groom, who wore the uniform of a
lieutenant of the Bavarian army.
Four bridesmaids carried the long
train of the bride's gown. Next in
line were a number of court func
tionaries and then came Emperor
William and Princes® Thyra. of Cum
berland, mother of the groom.
The Duke of Cumberland, father of
the groom, accompanied the Empress.
King George of England followed
with the German Crown Princess up
on his arm. Following George was
Czar Nicholas of Russia, with Queen
Mary of England.
One American Present.
Followed then an innumerable ar
ray of generals, field marshal*, ad
mirals. and others. But one American
was present In official capacity. He
was United States Ambassador
Lieshman
As the procession entered the
chapel the Cathedral choir sang a

IT'S ALL IN THE
EXAMINATION
A pair of glasses are.more than worthless if the
lenses are not absolutely correct. The correct lenses
cannot be properly fitted unless a careful examination
is made by a competent and skillful operator, aided by
the latest scientific eye-testing instruments and ap
pliances. Of course, the comfort of a pair of glasses
depends a great deal on the fit of the frames, the proper
adjustment of eyeglass mountings to the nose, and upon
the size and shape of lenses. But primarily and most
important of all is the correct fitting of the lenses. The
experience necessary to properly diagnose a difficult
case of eye trouble requiring correction by glasses is
not obtained in a day, and the longer these years of ex
perience, the more you can depend upon the. results ob
tained by your Optician. Our fifty years’ growth has
produced for you the very best optical service obtain
able. We offer you the best-equipped fitting rooms, the
very latest styles of frames and mountings, the newest
