His Mission.
New YORK, Dec. 2S.-M. Paul Des-
chanel, the distinguished member of the
French chamber of deputies who comes
to America charged with special mis-
sion by his government, arrived in New
York yesterday on board La Cham
pagne. He proposes to spend several
months in the United States travelling
through various states, studying the
great socialiStic and labor question
of the day. He comes with let
tiers of Introduction to prominent men
all over the country. who will assist
him in his task. Asked if he believed
that the civilized world was on the eve
of great social upheaval, he said: II
do not doubt at all that the civilized
world is rapidly approaching. if it has
not already reached, a period which will
give birth TO such a crisis as was the
French revolution. or, perhaps, to even
q greater crisis. 1t is because we un-
derstand the gravity of the situation
that such men as myself are making
our strongest efforts to understand the
rights and the wrongs Of the labOring
classes with Il view TO giving them at
least measure of what is their DUE"
"IIaYe you any sympathy with the
extreme ideas of those who advocate a
distribution Of wealth and apportion-
ment of land?' "Oh, DEAR" exclaimed
NJ. Deschanel, al hope you do not take
me for q socialist. The utmost | would
advocate would be certain notifications
in the laws of succession, and a few
measures OF that moderate nature.
Foremost among these ! would place
certain measures relating to arbitration
between capital and labor. The United
States has much to teach us regarding
that happy solution of all sorts of labor
complications"
What detailed plans have you for
improving the condition of laboring
classes in France?" "Ah," answered
NJ. Deschanel, smiling, ''you must not

AN EDUCATED BRUTE.
Morals of Scholars Polluted by a
SCOuudrei.

PITTsBURG. Dec. 2S.-BlairsviIIe, In
diana county, is excited over the discov-
cry that Prof. Ennis, for ten years su-
perintendent of the public schools, has
been demoralizing the boys and pollut-
Ing their morals. Eight or ten of the
largest pupils were before the
board and made most startling
revelations. Ennis came to this
city and was arrested, but afterwards
released and has gone West. Before
leaving he made a written confession
and prayed for leniency on the part of
his prosecutors. Prof. Ennis is fifty
four years of age and has always been
prominent in church and social circles.
His actions have caused the greatest in
dlgnation. Officers arrived from Blairs-
vile tonight for the professor and were
disappointed when they learned he had

Of the navy orders us away. We are
ready to sail on three hours notice, but
may remain three weeks. All depends
on our orders from Washington. The
ship is equipped for a three years cruise
and we have 100 rounds of ammunition
for each gun. Besides this, we have
300 or 400 for other ships"
'What other ships?" was asked.
"Well, we may meet some other ships
that will want some ammunition" was
the only answer.
1t is inferred that the Charleston, now
on her way from Honolulu to Acapulco.
is to meet the San Francisco here and
to take Oh extra ammunition. The Bal
timore is also coming north from Chilian
waters, and may want ammunition.
While the officers refuse to state future
plans, it is easy to learn that the vessel
is ready for an emergency. The cruiser
made the run of 500 miles from San
Francisco in thirty-siX hours.

Men and Women Give Him Great
Reception.


NEW YORK, Dec. 2s.-James J. Cor
bett. the champion boxer of California,
met with a remarkable reception
tonight when he appeared TO
spar in the After Dark''
show. The spectators. men and women
alike, seemed to feel that they should
show their kindly feelings for the Cali
fornian as against Mitchell, the Eng
lishman, and they cheered and clapped
at Corbett for minute before they got
through. During the rounds, when
Corbett displayed some of his cleverest
points, the house applauded time and
time again.
This afternoon the OLYMPIC Club of
Orleans sent telegram to the Illus
trated News Office Offering an opening,
without mentioning terms, though Of
fering protection to Mitchell, for Cor
bett to meet Slavin down there in the
event of an interruption in this city
by the police authorities of the
Corbett- Mitchell bout. When this
was told to Corbett, the Californian said
he would be willing to sign articles with
both Slayin and Jackson, with the un-
derstanding that he was to fight the
winner. He had no use for losers, he
said. and until Slavin beat Jackson he
would not talk to the Australian. He
would fight Charley Mitchell anywhere,
under any conditions.

Pennsylvanians Rejoice at a Viii
Iain's Wound.

UNIoNTowN, Pa, Dec. 27.-The good
news comes from Fairchance this morn
ing that Frank Cooley, leader of the worst
gang of robbers that this county has
known for years, was shot and perhaps
fatally wounded by one of his gang. 1t
is said that the gang were having big
time drinking and carousng at their
mountain rendezvous near Fairchance,
when one of the men and Frank got
into row and the latter was shot.
The people of Fayette county, who
have been terrorized and robbed almost
daily and nightly for the past two years,
all join 10 hoping that the shot may
prove fatal to the brutal coward who
burned the feet of helpless old woman
in order to get her few dollars. The
latest work Of the gang was to rob Da-
vid Morgan near Frandenville, w. Va,
and then attempt to burn down his big
barn. Morgan shot one of the men and
almost beat him to death, the rest of the
party fleeing.

Why wouldn't it be a good i1ea to
watch the don's house? 1t has long
been whispered abroad that he is in the
habit of uttering rebellious sentiments.
Yes, that is what / will do. Keep an
eve upon the movements of the father;
perchance thereby ensnare the son; and
in so doing compel the naughty daugh-
ter to listen to my suit which now she
spurns."
Having arrived at this conclusion, the
miscreant Cuban drained his glass to
the bottom, arose, and, tightening his

way.
AS the officer was stepping out upon

what shabbily dressed, who was shut

vending his way homeward.
Not sign of recognition passed be-
tween the two individuals, but when
they had separated perhaps ten feet,
Coras paused, turned, and called In low
voice: "Jose, Jose Calvo. Come here, l
want you"
Hearing his name mentioned, the per-
son addressed halted, then retraced his
steps. What does the senior want
with Jose Calvo? He has done naught
for many months that would warrant
placing him in the calaboose."

you in the calaboose? I have some
work for you to perform. Draw hither,

The next thing was to call in one Rich
ard M. Hunt, good carpenter and builder,
by the day, who among other jobs ran up
the Roman Catholic Cathedral in New
York. He was quite willing to undertake
to build q unique cottage for each of the
gentlemen. What material would they
have? Mr.. Vanderbilt thought he preferred
white marble, it looked so cool and COM
Portable in hot weather. and Mr.. Goelet he
rather wanted Indiana granite, because it
wouldn't soil so easily in dirty weather.
About the cost?
AS to that Mr.. Vanderbilt really didn't
care. He just wanted a cottage you
know, to live in and keep cool two or three
months year, but Mr.. Goelet, he was
more prudent, and hoped and expected
that Mr.. Hunt would be able to carry out
his very modest ideas and keep within
81, 000 900, of cours Sc not including the cost
of the land.
The accompanying pictures make it
plain to the veriest tyro in architecture
that Mr.. Hunt has done his work we'll and
produced two cottages the like Of which
were never seen before even in Newport.
These cottages have no stuffy sitting
rooms overrun with bawling children.
Five hundred pairs Of twins could not
stuff the suites Of enormous drawing
rooms in these houses, even If the chill
dren were allowed in the drawing room,
they have most elaborate apartments of
their own, including study rooms, play
rooms, nurseries and dining rooms, all Sc
Guided and isolated from the show part of
the houses, where they can work their lit
tie brains, lungs and appetites to their
hearts content without ever interfering
in the least with mamma or her guests.
AS to the smell Of cooking in the bed
rooms, the kitchens in these houses are so
far away from the living rooms that even
a strong Newport Worcester could not
| carry the gentle odor Of tripe and onions
upstairs without getting tired. Nor shall
there be flies in the butter, the butteries
in these cottages are so hemmed in and
screened and guarded by such practised
dairymaids that the biggest bluebottle
that ever buzzed himself into notoriety
would sooner tackle big black spiders
web than the shrine Of breads closest
| friend.

Neither will the meat be i'll cooked or
served, for these cottages have ranges,
broilers and ovens enough to keep a Chef,
two assistants and four kitchenmaids in
constant employment, and the maid Of all
work will be steward, a butler, four foot
men, housekeeper and four housemaids,
and the poor little housewife may wax fat
and try on her pretty gowns all day long
and never worry whether there is any
sweet oil in the house or If Mary Ann has
left the cork out of the pickle bottle. And
80, with the head coachman and the dozen
stablemen, and the head gardener and his
assistants, the Newport cottage becomes a
little kingdom Of its own, ruled by some
mysterious, unseen power, working In
noiseless, well CREASED grooves that never
Jar and disturb but have the whole day
long for the cultivation Of that perfect
love for which the Newport cottage Ia

VIII Love Be Less Likely to Reign i'm
the Humble Home the Poets Sing of,
than i'm These CuriosIties OF Rural
Architectural
We all know what love in a cottage is:
The stuffy sitting room overrun with
brawling children, a smell of cooking in
the bedrooms, flies in the butter, meat
burned to cinder one day and served raw
the next, an hysterical incompetent maid
OF all work, skeletonized disheartened
wife, and little Cupid sitting up aloft, dis
gruntled and disillusionized, freed like
pet '1tten that has had its first experience
with fox terrier. Oh, yesI We all know
what love in cottage Is. But do you2
You know they live in cottages at New
port, and there Is said to be love there, and
some people manage to scrape along very
comfortably in them.
When the Vanderbilts and Goelets came
to Newport they wanted to have cottages
OF their own and pay no rent. Here Is the
way they built them. Every one knows
that Newport cottage must be on the
cliffs to be real cottage. So the real es-
tate agents, Of which there are eleven
hundred and sixteen at Newport, were all
called in, and after great pains and min
ute search, they discovered that there
were only two little narrow strips of land
left on the cliffs on to which two modest
little cottages might be squeezed. The
site for a Newport cottage" costs any
where from 100000 to $4OO, 900. Wander
bilts and Goelets paid about 1920, 900 each
for their cottage wards
