gled through the lines, and were told to
keep an eye open for anything that would
turn up. Suspicion finally fell on the cans.
"I cut hole in the top Of one" says au
inspector of that day "and, sure enough,
there was brandy, the finest and choicest 1
ever tasted. I dumped out the contents and
looked inside. There was a smaller can
filled with the oil.
One of the inspectors recently asked new
arrival to play tune on his accordeon. He
said he couldn't play. The inspector seized
the instrument, ripped off the end and
found it full of choice cigars.

Claude Vignon was one of the most re-
markable women of recent years. Twelve
years ago she used to sit in the gallery of
the chamber of deputies at Versailles-the
chamber had not returned to Paris at that
date-and throw off newspaper letters for
The Independence Beige, the leading
journal of Brussels. Her second husband,
NJ. Maurice Rouvier, who afterward be
came prime minister and is to-day minister
of finance, retaining his place in the new
cabinet, was then as he is now deputy,
and used often to send up from the floor to

there are very few salons where one can, as
in London and Paris, meet the leading au-
thors, artists and actors of the city.
Such salon calls for great wealth to sup
port it and make it brilliant. But Cresus
in New York fights shy of Bohemia. The
mere idea of receiving Sara Bernhardt, Rose
Coghlan, Dixey or even Edwin Booth would
be shocking. These people are all very we'll

French Women Who Have Risen TO Em.

iuepce Through Their Use.
WRITTEN FOR THE DIsPATcH.I
With the brush and the chisel French
women of to-day have distinguished them
selves not less than with the pen. Rosa
Bonheur is, of course, the best known, but
she has almost wholly withdrawn from art
circles, being nearly 20 years of age. Mime.
Leon Bertaux, founder and president Of
the Woman's Art Society, is perhaps the
ablest female artist after Rosa Bonheur.
Her art career presents the uncommon ex-
ample of the wife out-stripping the husband
in his own pro fession. Nine. Bertaux is a
very short, thick set little lady, who is al
most as clever as an organizer as she is as
an artist.
There are but two female sculptors who
have place in the Luxemb bourg galleries,
the famous state collection of living artists,
and these two women were admitted only
within very few years. One Of these
women is Nine. Leon Bertaux and the other
is Claude Visnon, who died last winter.

Possibly there is future for women In
this great city, but it will not dawn until
they are ready to lay aside that pride which
now prevents them entering the households
