Vienna March 31 reports say Emperor Francis Joseph threatened to abdicate during a cabinet crisis to force immediate concessions over army control.

Reflections of a Bachelor from the New York Prem Vanity
Vanity is more satisfying to the vein than brains to others. If we had to buy tickets of emission to Work, it would become very popular. Men miss horse races so much because they can't lose their money so fast. What a man can never see is that perhaps it's no worse for the baby to cry than for him to swear. A man needs big gains on half his ventures to help out on the bigger tosses he makes on the other half.
