after they have left the unenjoyed splen-
dors of the E!ysee. 1t is said they we're
house-hunting. To be more exact. they
were fat-hunting. They found one fat
which suited them almost perfectly, all
except the price. 1t was in the Faubourg
st. Germain, just over the fiat Of a couple
of their dearest friends. The rental, how
ever, was 10000 francs, or $4,000 a year.
That was, they thought, more than they
could afford. Before they went to the
Elysee they had charming fat, Tor which
they paid only 5000 francs, or $500,

will be no better off than when they

they can afford to pay any higher rent
than they did then.

In reviewing the coming French cleo
tions. to be held in August, New York
paper published the following last April:
France is or the Qui vive for the re-
election of President Carnot to another
term of seven years as chief of the re-
public. While the choice of the national
assembly is reasonably certain to fail
upon Carnot. yet there is sufficient doubt
in the prospect to give some piquancy to
the situation. The parliamentary cleo
tions held in August last made it certain
that President CarnOt's successor, if not
Carnot himself, would be thorough
going Republican, in sympathy with Car
nots policy and willing to continue his
methods of governing France.
"At the elections the moderate Republi-
can policy was sustained by an over
whelmlng majority, as against the ex-
treme Socialists on the one hand and the
Monarchists on The other, the confidence
of The Freneh people in the republic

Intimate friends on that point.
Had the Panama bombshell succeeded
in destroying Carnoi without bringing
down the fabric of the republic, M. Con-
stans would in all probability have be-
come the President OF France. His is per-
haps to-day the strongest individuality in
france. AS Minister OF the Interior ne

masterful fashion that commanded the
dread of the disorderly and the admiration
OF the Iaw-abiding. The friends OF Nj.
Constans charge that President Carnot was
glad to get lid of u. Constans from his
Cabinet, owing to jealousy OF his fame aud
abilities. There is no doubt that NJ. Con-
stans himself believes this to be true, and
that he has spared no effect to bring down
his former chief. COnstans is alleged to
have had part in the Panama exposure,
in the hope that it would involve Carnot,
and there is unquestionable ground for
the allegation. CUnstans is too resolute
and ambitious man to give up the strug-
gle, whatever the odds against him, and
he will doubtless continue TO hope that
some contingency may arise that will put
him to the front again. While he is
strong with the substantial property
owning Republicans-the bourgeOiSe, a.
they are called-ne is for the same reason
unpopular with the Monarchlsts ana the
SOcialis is-with the former because he ex
posed and crushed the BoulaDger-Roy alist
conspiracy, and with the latter because lie
showed such vigor aud even harshness in
dealing with Socialist outbreaks. Constans
may therefore be considered out OF the
field, and the same is true OF BrissOn.
Nj. de Freycinet Is hOrs du combat ow-
ing to the Panama affair, which left him
besmirched, although not convicted. The
former Minister Of War Is also in bad OdOT
on account of the melinite scandal, con-
nected with the Imprisonment OF Turpin,
the inventor of melinite. Turpin was ae-
cused and convicted on trial Of having
sold the secret of the manufacture Of the
powerful explosive to a well-known Brit
ish firm. Turpin claimed that he was
really being prosecuted because he would
not engage TO marry the daughter of
general with influence at the War Depart
ment, the general having offered, in the

cure for Turpin much more liberal COM

received. Whatever truth there may have
been in Turpin's charges he was par
dOned about the same time that the Pana-
ma exposures drove NJ. de Freycinet out
OF the Ministry, and dashed his hopes of
the presidency. But no matter who may
be elected President, it is certain that the
French republic, which has existed for
nearly quarter of century, will sur

She was kind and gentle to all who
