To Help Small Shop Keepers.

From the Pail Mall Gazette
To meet the complaints OF the small shop
keepers against the large drapery and fancy
shops in Paris, which sell almost everything,
IN one case even sugar, surtax was imposed
last year, based on the number of persons en-
ployed on the premises. Till then they had
been taxed merely as if they carried on only
one line Of business. Under an arrangement
adopted on Saturday the Bon Marche. with
LOGO assistants, will pay 196.O00f.: the Louvre.
with 1870 persons, will pay 205. O00f., and the
Printemps. with Ais persons. 6s,0O0f. The Bon
Marche and Printemps, being limited liability
companies. also pay per cent on their divi-
dends, namely, loO,000f. and 60.0O0f., but the
Louvre, not being yet company. escapes this
tax. The French chamber agreed to exempt
from direct taxes persons having seven or more
children. such exemption being limited to the
category of small taxpayers

Mr.. Puryis told good and characteristics

Riot on the French Turf.

Paris Dispatch to the London Daily Telegraph.
This afternoon riot without parallel in the
brief history OF the French turf occurred dur
ing the steepfechase races at Colonies, a
pretty suburb five or six miles outside the
Notifications. Fine weather and the prospect
OF good sport deduced from numerous entries
drew large number OF spectators 10 the
course. many OF them of the toughest betting
and souteneur class. These anucipations were
doomed to disappointment Most OF the horses
backed by the public did not even PCT in an
appearance. Ia the second race for which
there were fourteen entries, only one
Colomba-went to the starting post The
spectators groaned and hooted a. the horse
walked over" When next the bell rang they
soon saw that another walk over" was about
to take place. the horse this time being
Clara Solen Not content with hurting
lnyectlves at the jockey the crowd
swarmed over the barriers on the
ground. stopped the walk over and
vociferously demanded back the money they
had put on the non-starters. 1t il needless to
say that their request was not complied with.
The rioters then became furious, and while
some OF them broke down the barriers along
the course others brought large quantities of
hay from neighboring field, placed it on the
hedges and hurdles and then set IL on fire. For
confusion reigned. The half dozen policemen
available were powerless. A squadron of gen.
darmes were sent for. but even they were inef-
fectual to quell the riot As last resort the
committee rang the bell and sent out two
horses to the post for another race, but the
crowd refused TO give way and the jockeys
were compelled to take the animals back to the
paddock to save them from violence. The au-
thorities seeing this determined to abandon
the remainder of the events altogether and
the multitude dispersed gradually, prociaIming
loudly that they had been swindled The tur1
in France is evidently in bad way.
