DRINKING IN FRANcE.EA cores
pondcnt of the Cincinnati Enquirer


Mritcs:.,
During my brief stay in Paris l
have seen five hundred thousand peo-
pie, and in this number only three
drunkarsls, aud not a single crusader.
Every body drinks. Wine is a part
of the meals. They put bsandy in
their coffee instead of milk. The
father ponrs wine for his daughter,
the mother for her children On all
the principal streets there are little
tables placed Oh the sidewalk in front
Of the cafe, where all classes sit and
drink and mingle freely together.
But there il no disorder, DO disturb
ance. III France it is not disgr,ceful
for man to drink, but it is ungenteel
for him to get drunk. In AMERICA it
is a disgrace to drink, and social dam
nation to get drunk. Here there are
bars or saloons where the front win
d0ws are painted, and there are no
screens at the doors ): nOboly drinks

WOMAN As A PEBEsTRIAN..-The
'Trnckee Republicans, Nevada paper,
stated not long since that woman
passed through that town who las
walked the entire distance from Kan
.sas City. She has followed the rail-
road track clesely, and has been some
fifty day IS In making the trip. Nearly
every conductor and brakesnlan on
the railroad between Omaha and
'Truckee have observed her as they
passed her on their respective trains.
She was very. reticent in conversation,
but claimed to have fecreant hus-
band in California whom she was
seeking. Numerous offers were made
her OF ride on the freight trains, all
of which she peremYtorily refused.
She declined trusting herself to the
dangers and uncertainties Of railway
travel, and walked every step of the
way. Her dress consisted of pair
of loose Turkish trousers, made Of
canvas, SIMILAR in texture to that
used Icy miners. for hose in hydraulic
operations. "A wool sack protected
her neck and chest, and small
striped shawl was wrapped around
her shoulders. III height and size She
WAS rather below the medium. Her
TEXTURES were rather coarse, and, as
may be supposed, severely bronzed

The distance from Winnemucca to
Nadsworth-l:6 nliles-she made in
four days, at the rate of "a miles IA
day. She made no halt in passing

II 5HOoLs IN LOUISA NA.---''Ihe past
year has, been very .unfay orable for
public schools in this State. The
great flood which covered 40 large, i.
portion OF the country in April and
May last, prevented the opening of
schools il many places. i The lhtencss
OF the planting season, caused By the
overflow, operated ,unfayorably by
Keeping large numbers of children
employed i'll the fields at period
when they usually attend school. But
in spite Of all these hiDdrances, and
notwithstanding the Excitement,
which in some instances interfcred
with schools, the, reports from most
parishes in the fifth ,disttict.show that
public schools have. been more nu-
meroi,s, and the number Of pupils iii
atteDdance larger than in any former
year. We givea few examples: R7en-
vile, number Of schools 10; Madison,
%; Morchous+, % !. Claiborne, 81 !;
Oilachita, 80; Union, 80. I 8 Aa.. >
~ all these i,arislaes. as we'll as in
others throughout, tic State, the aver
age attendance ut pupils IT each
school has been larger thanf b year.
One canse Of this increase is Tie en-
ployment of better teachers than
formerly, and Another cause is the
adoption Of the plan Of paying teach
ers according to the actual average
number Of pupils in their schools.
This makes it to the personal inter
est of teacher TO keep his pupils in
school and he exe,ts himself to inter-
est them il their studies and induce
them to come regularly. A few years
of peace weuld make our public school
system a success. We need 4 large
school fund and all friends of tcdlca-
ton should mite in urging Congress
to provide Il permanent national fund
sufficient to supply the needs OF the
Southern States.-sJournal Of Educa-

STRANGE STORY.-ln her last let
ter from Paris Mrs. Lucy Hooper re-
Yates the following story:
One of the strangcst and most hor-

party of children who were playing

the branches of q tree q white par
Gel npborne by means of some twenty

brought to light the following fact:
The child was that Of a poor toy
maker and his wife. Just after the
confinement ST the latter the. husband
had died suddenly, and all the honse-

seized for rent. The unhappy woman
was driven mad BY this accumulation
of misfortnnes; she killed her infant
and then went aud threw herself into
the river, leaving behind her a writ

of the dead husbands stock in trade.
