 Report Voted Down.
 PARIS, Dec. 6.-Last night at ii 80 M. Ribot proceeded to the Elysee and sub mitted the following Cabinet to the Presi- dent, who gave his approval of the names presented:
 Premier and Minister of Foreign Affairs, M. Riot.
 Minister of the Interior and Public Wor- ship, M Loubet.
 Minister of Justice, M. Bourgeois.
 Minister of War, M Freycinet.
 Minister of Marine, M. Burdeau.
 Minister of Finance, M. Rouvier
 Minister of Public Works, M. Viette
 Minister of Commerce, NJ. Siegfried.
 Minister of Agriculture, M. De Velle
 Minister of Public Instruction, NJ. Chas Dupuy.
 M. Jamais will remain as Under Secre- tary of the State and Colonies. The new Government will meet to-day to arrange for terms and for message to be addressed to Parliament. Early in the day a. rumor was that ex-Minister of Finance Tirard, now dele gate to the International Monetary Con- ference, had been instructed to leave Brus- sells and attempt to form Ministry, gained much prevalence. The report was denied semi-oficially.
 In the Chamber of Deputies the Pan- anna question again caused great excite ment.
 Deputy Alfred Letellier demanded that the proceedings of the committee of investigation should be taken down steno- graphically, in order that the record might be perfect for future reference.
 M. Brison replied that he had no objec- tion to such 8 course, but feared it would be difficult to have the proceedings so re- ported.
 At this instant fearful shriek rang through the Chamber, and the Deputies sprang to their feet. Deputy Dubreuil was writhing in the convulsions of cpl lepsy. He was paving with his hands, | and seemed to be foaming at the mouth. It was fearful spectacle, and one that mortified the Deputies. The sitting was at once suspended, while 8 score of members ran to succor the unfortunate, who was carried, | still shrieking, out of the Chamber When order had been restored 8 vote was taken on Letellier's proposition, and ( 1t was rejected.

FEET TOO SMALL.
Many Women Perfectly Formed Excep. as to Their Feet.

Many Women Perfectly Formed ExcePs as to Their Feet. Louis Xavier, Parisian sculptor now making a tour of America, sat in the corridor of the Southern the other day and discussed the human form divine, says the St. Louis lobe-Democrat:
 'It is not true, as the world generally suppose, that ideal statues are compo- sites. Yes. have read that sculptors use a number of models for one statue, copying the head of one, the bust of another, the limbs of third, and so on. Some sculptors may resort to such ridiculous patchwork, but imagine the effect would be far from pleasing.
 'Perfectly formed women are by no means so rare as generally supposed.
 Not one woman in a dozen has been seriously deformed by tight lacing, and
 the high-heeled shoes, that formerly played such havoc with shapely limbs,
 have about gone out of fashion. But a
 perfectly formed female foot is now a
 rara avis. The world appears to have
 adopted the Chinese idea that the
 smaller the foot the prettier 1t is, and
 the result is that perfectly modelled feet
 are cramped and abused until not a line of beauty is left. Now any sculptor, any h1 ClSG, WILL CC1A yOu G1dU d AOOU OOO
 small to harmonize with the figure is an
 actual deformity. I would rather see
 the foot too large, if it be shapely, than too small. Think of Juno who stands five feet seven inches and tips the scales
 at one hundred and fifty pounds teeter- ing to and fro on No. or No. feetl She should wear No. at the very least. and a No. would not be out of proportion.
 Like the foot, the hand should har- i monize with the body. A little string of hand on lusty Minerva, who tow CTS up nearly six feet tall, is shocking to true artistic taste. Did you ever see | man whose nose was too small for his face? Well, it is just as necessary that the hand and foot should be in harmony with the figure as that the nose should fit the face. Some. day people will learn this, and then as many people will wear padded shoes as now limp
 along in footgear a size too small \ Madam will then be as much ashamed
 of hand too small as she now is of one too large"

Half of this was settled on Antoinette and her mother, the other being reserved for the rebuilding of Roy court, the re- clamation of the estate, and the acqui- sition of additional land.

EPILoGUE.

The foregoing narrative of my grand fathers early life was written long be fore my entrance into the world, prob lbly for the entertainment of his friends and neighbors, possibly with view of its publication. If it were so, the intention was never carried into ef- feet. Only few months ago l acci- dentally found the manuscript in the drawer of an old desk which had not been opened for half a century.
 After reading the manuscript I sub mitted it to an able editor, who, being favorably impressed by it, offered to publish the story in popular maga- zine, an offer which I gratefully ac- cepted.
 It may interest those who read the narrative to know that my grandfather lived to great age, made large for tune, and dispensed a noble hospitality. Though loyal citizen of the United States, he took little part in politics, always kept the kings birthday, and invariably called himself a Virgin ian, never an American. He held that the founders of the commonwealth made great mistake in not giving the country at large the name of the oldest of the thirteen original states, in imi- tation of the Swiss. who named their confederation after the most ancient and illustrious of the primitive cantons. In his opinion, Virginia ought to have been the Schwyz of the United States.
 My dear father died at Gettysburg, fighting, like the Virginia gentleman he was, for the lost cause.
 The scimitar given by Djezzar Pasha to my grandfather, and the bracelets which myrgrandfather gave to his bride have been kept (according to his wish expressed in his willy as heirlooms in the family. MARE Roy.

CURIOUS CAR FERRY.
Railroad Cars Will Be Carried from Michi
 gan to Wisconsin by Water.

Railroad Cars Will Be Carried from Michi-
 gan to Wisconsin by Water. A car ferry across Lake Michigan will be one of the curiosities this season of navigation. Within a month the ferry will be established between Frankfort, the Michigan terminus of the Toledo, Ann Arbor & Northern Michigan rail road, and Kewaunee, Wis, where through connections will be made with the Winona & St. Paul railroad. The cars will be loaded directly at the ferry, and, after crossing the lake, will be run ashore, thus avoiding the heavy ex- pense involved in unloading from cars to steamer and then from steamer into cars again.
 The ferry will be a combination of the Chesapeake bay boat and the car transfers used at Detroit and Port Huron. They will be built to with stand the most furious storms raging on Lake Michigan, particularly during the winter, as they are designed to run all the year round. They will have twin screws and an ice-crusher at the bow.
 Two boats for this novel ferry are now under construction by the Craig Ship. building Company at Toledo, O. They are 25O feet long, 52 feet wide and 1e feet deep. Each will carry twenty-four loaded freight cars on four tracks, which run from end to end. It is said that it will cost but $2 to carry a car across Lake Michigan on the new ferry as against S7 where bulk is twice broken. The two boats will cost $780, 900 each, and will be fitted up with all modern appliances. Particular atten- ton will be paid to guarding the ma. chinery against accident while in mid lake.

NlCE-POPE SATOLLI.
Leo's Announcement Creating Much D
 cussion Among Catholics.

LeO's AnnOuncement Creating Much Dis
 cussion Among Catholics.
 BALTIMORE, Dec. 6.-The announce ment that Mgr. Satolli had been appoint ed by the Pope with full power to settle without appeal all religious questions be- tween bishops and priests in the United States has caused considerable excitement in Catholic circles here.
 Why Cardinal Gibbons should be over looked and such plenary powers be given directly from the Vatican, is only one among the many perplexing questions asked about it.
 The chief reason for the action, and the one that obtains general credence, is that Pope Leo's long continued ill health has determined him to delegate such duties as properly devolve upon him to one whom he can implicitly trust.
