TOKIO, May 24.—Although there was an abatement early to-day of approximately four degrees in his fever, the temperature of Emperor Yoshihlto, who is ill of pneumonia, later rose more than two degree*. It was 101.48 degrees this afternoon. The following bulletin was issued this morning from the Aoyoma pal ace, signed by two of the eight phy sicians who are attending the imper ial patient: “His majesty has passed a favor able night and shows encouraging improvement. His temperature is 99.2. pulse 76 and respiration 36.’* Xew’s that improvement was shown in the condition of the Mikado caused great rejoicing throughout the em pire, h.ut especially in this city Pray ers of thanksgiving were offered up and r ministerial order was pro claimed allowing the 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. Congratulations From U. S. 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 anti-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. Musical Ability Permeates Nearly Every Tissue, Surgeon Discovers. Enrico Caruso, the Famous Tenor. If that gold bearing, silver toned voice of Erkrlco Caruso's ever fails him, all he will have to do, accord ing to the latest medical lore, in to go around tapping himself on the bones and the vibrations that result will, be musical. He can tap his knuckles and get a pleasing jingle, whereas, with most folk, the re*u’t would only be a discord. Music, according to the new' au thority, is built into the frame. If one’s 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 famou* London throat specialist, found the advantage that Caruso has over the rest of mankind when he made a re- oent 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 much ELBERFELD LANDS HUNT; FRANK IS AFTER ADAMS CHATTANOOGA.

The chest capacity of the singer gave him unusual aid in work, while the peculiar construction of the 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 of unusual length. In other words, Caruso was just j 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 ho loses famous golden-toned voire, medical lore declares by merely rapping his bones a pleasing harmony ean be devel oped, where, if tried on others, only discord would result. w’ho could not escape his future even If he tried. The veriest chump of a teacher 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 the vocal cords the owner of the unhandicapped teeth had a cinch on becoming great as a warbler. On the other band 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 And 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 bunches. 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 Smlth-Jones-Brown cannot sing. That we may not be accused of bias, we submit that it is only three inches and seven-sixteenths from the southwest corner of the ey n tooth to the extended arc subtended by the vocal cord; hence, quod erat 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 ui>on the statement of a doctor, and doctors do not agree.

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 ball 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 mechanical device to record the distance walked by policemen on their beats. 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 be tried out by the Atlanta police department. He explained that he has already taken up the matter with the New Y'ork 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 heat. “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.” “I think I’ll write to Mr. Winthrop. however, and suggest that he give Monk the honor of first trying out his wonderful invention.” Judge Rules $1 Week Enough for Husbands PORTLAND, OREG..

ED WALSH’S DIGESTION WRECKED BY “SPITBALL” CHICAGO, May 24.—Excessive use of the spltball has injured Ed Walsh’s di gestion and has thus affected his condi tion so that he has not yet reached his best form this year, according to Dr. Janies H. Blair, club physician of the Chicago Americans, in a report made on the pitcher’s condition. Walsh is quoted as saying his arm is “far from right." and attributing his success in the game with New York last Sunday to his "headwork."

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 Victoria Luise, only daughter of Em peror William, of Germany. The capital was 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 lesser royalties were cheered to art 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 the 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,” thre*> young princelings selected for manly grace and beauty; immediately fol lowing the “cavaliers” came the bride leaning upon the arm 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 Princess Thyra, of Cum berland. mother of the groom. The Duke of Cumberland, father of the groom, accompanied thef 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 marshals, ad mirals. and others. But one American was present in official capacity. He was United States Ambassador Li( Bhutan. As the procession entered the chapel the Cathedral choir sang a double quartette from Mendelssohn’s Oratorio of “Elijah.” Then the fa mous silver trumpets (the Kosleek trumpet corps) accompanied the hymn, "Praise The Lord, Ye Heavens Adore Thee.” The recent pat ent issued on this NOISELESS SWING HOOK secures and protects a fortune for the person that puts this badly needed ami universally used article on the mar ket.
