recently, one of tbs features of the locality,
but it recently vanished under the neces-
sity of certain changes in the building in
which it modestly flourished. Scores of
other cafes are sprinkled within the radius
of two or three streets of where the Vatel
thrived.
One Of these cafes in particular has
achieved something of fame. A year ago
it was on Wooster street, in a locality not
in itself especially savory. Now it is on
Washington Square. 1t is the Restaurant
de Paris. NJ. Cherriere, its proprietor, is q

AS matter of fact many fasti'iious diners
haunt the place. But in particular it is
patronized either by Frenchmen or by the

time would have been called the Bohemian
element of New York.

Dudes who used to turn up their trousers
when it rained in London are actually
practicing French phases. They will go to
the French ball of February, which is al
ways accused of being very wicked, but
which, like great many novels that now
appear on the news stands, only promise TO
be wicked in the title and never quite fulfill
expectations. In the public ball, as in so
many other things, the Frenchman is infu-
encing New York's habits. Many details
suggested by French practice-especially
in the direction of wines and the supper
have been adopted, though New York al
ways observes conservatism in taking up
the more radical foreign ways of being free
and easy.
F'rancomania may not always be attrac-
tive, but unbiased observers will perhaps
find in it many traits to like better than he
has liked the antics of the AnRiomania.

able part of the prosperity that comes to
the French quarter comes from a scnti-
mental patronage. Moreover, they are
having their influence on the restaurant
life of the city. There is cafe style to an
increasingly large number of restaurants
in all parts of the city. OF course, the
French cook dominates the culinary art of
the metropolis. This to be taken for grant
ed, since the same may be said of almost
every great city in the world. But the
Partisan manner now appears beyond the
kitchen to an extent never equalled hereto
fore. This is illustrated by the growing
popularity of the table d'hote.
The table d'hote dinner Of the past was
seldom less than 81, but the French res
taurant has brought the price down. There
are French restaurants like Foucarde's on
Twenty-fifth street where for so cents
man can get a most surprising dinner OF
six courses-with wine. Only a French
man with the masterful faculty for turning
odds and ends to account could ever accom-
plish the feat. And probably it could not
be done except with large trade. will
give my personal assurance that the dinner
is entirely eatable Whether the wine
might be considered drinkable depends
upon whether the diner can get along
with vim ordiDaire of any extremely ordin
airy though wholly genuine kind.
THERE ARE MANY~oAFEs
where the table d'hote without wine costs
40 cents. A pint bottle of California can be
had for Is cents. Bordeaux is put on for
25 cents. When restaurants that are not
| French attempt to initiate the French way
of doing things they are perhaps an i'm
provement upon what they might otherwise
have remained, but they are generally far
short of the genuine article. 1t may not be
patriotic to say so, but the American res
| taurant, so far as it is illustrated by sucn
examples as are exhibited in New York, do
rot convince its patrons that Yankee genius
can be especially culinary.
If the cafe illustrates most strikingly the
influence of Paris upon New York, there
are many other traits of the modern city
that readily indicate various phases of
Partisan influence. For one thing, the
chduteuse ercentrique has captured the town.
Just now she is in particular Eugenia Fou-

Every year fresh droves of art students
return from the ateliers of Paris. The
French capital casts spell over the artistic
nature from which the American types at
least never wholly recover. These young
men who have knocked elbows with Ger
ONE, Cananel, Carolus, Duran, Meissouier,
and the rest, are saturated with French
taste. They trim their boards to point
Van Dyck style-and in New York, not to
mention other cities of this susceptible re-
public, have managed, after some persist
ence, in
CREATING POINTED BEARD FASHION.
They drink French claret, and delight in
the French cafe. The Restaurant de Paris,
where neither monsieur nor madame speak
English at all, and where the two walters
are obviously Partisan, suits them precise
ly. At noon you are sure of finding various
artists from the Benedick, from the more
venerable Tenth Street Studio building,
and even from artistic centres further up
town. You will see Chase there and Ken
yon Cox, and Bruce Crane. When Robert
BlHm gets back from Japan you may count
upon seeing him there any noontlme. AT
the evening dinner hour the literary ele-
ment predominates. L you ask for the
Journals Franchise you will get the Illustrd-
ton, the Jdurndl d. Amusdnt and other peri
odicals of Partisan type; and you may sit
there by the window, with its loudly green
plant pots and its bird cages, and imagine
yourself on the Boulevard des Italiennes.
The specifically foreign tone of these res
taurants naturally invests them with a
charm TO which people who have been
abroad, or who have read Hugo and Daudet,
are naturally susceptible, and consider

THE FENIAN HEAD CENTRE.
James Stephens, Leader Of the Men of'65" 4

Back in Dublin.
[For TIE SUNDAY HERALD-Copyright ed. !
After but little has been heard of him for
twenty years, at this iuncture in Irish at
fairs James Stephens reappears IN Dublin.
He is now seventy years old, and it is not
likely that he will be active in agitation,
particularly as there is an Indictment for
high treason standing against him in Dub
lin. The old man lives on an annuity
bought for him few years ago and his ad-
mirers are trying to raise money wherewith
to buy him house in Dublin. 1t is need
less to say that the head centre of the Fen :
ian movement has no sympathy with Glad
stonian 1rishmen and that his intimates
among the Irish people are of the more ad
vanced school. The nearest approach to
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1891-10-25

Fenianism now In existence in Ireland is,
perhaps, the Young Ireland Society OF
Dublin, which contends for the policy i1en-
tical with that of the organization of which
Stephens was the head, which would make
open war for the absolute independence of
Ireland 1t is coniectureG that Mr.. Steph-
ems may have an understanding with John
O'Leary, leader of the Dublin organization.
James Stephens was originally clerk in
the Office of the railway contractor i'll the
County Tipperary. He was wounded in
the rebellion OF 1913, but made his escape
to Paris, where he earned a living by trans
lating English books into French. In 1855
he returned to Ireland, and the next year,
in association with Thomas Clarke Luby,
founded Fenianism. He started the Feniap
organization in America two years after.
In the height of its strength Fenianisn is
believed to have had as many as $4,000
members in Ireland and possibly three times
as many OH this side Of the Atlantic. Fen
ianism virtually broke down in 1865 and
Stephens was arrested. He escaped from
prison a few weeks after. Stephens, who
had made his home on the continent OF
Europe since the failue of the conspiracy
led by him, has visited America three times

is rousing shout, giving that electrifying
crescendo peculiar to French ordinations
of the kind. The words express well the
sentiment of the company. Long live
France; but long live also its sister repub-
lie of the United States.
1t would be interesting to sketch the
character and extent of the French popula-
ton in New York, to picture the French
quarter; to enumerate the French organi-
cations, large and small, which occupy
themselves with various interests, social,
reminiscent and CIVIL and to indicate by
the quoting of French names how import
ant an influence has been exerted in the
metropolis by individual Frenchmen. But
the writer who made the attempt would re-
ouire considerable elbow room, for the
dimensions of the French element in New
York are vastly greater than may be sug-
eested by the Frenchman's political obscur-
ity.
1t does not happen to suit the Frenchman
TO dabble in politics. Probably his notori-
GUS want of ingenuity in mastering for
eign tongue may account for the fact that
politics does not offer a good field for the
display OF his abilities, and yet he is fac
tor of considerable Importance in certain
sections of the city where he particularly
congregates. In particular, the French

Fourth street and between Broadway and

G. Bunner has so particularly sketched in
