A PARTISAN LAW.
1t Gives People Right to Stop a
Performance.

There Is a law In France which embitters the
life OF every dramatic author, as 1t confers upon
every French citizen The right OF having a
novel or play Immediately suppressed by the
police II his name happens to be mentioned In

OF Dupont or Dubois all The Duponts or Du-
boises in France are entitled to insist on a

their anxiety 20 avoid unpleasantness the parO-
dists of the Cluny Theater decided to designate
the characters in their piece de salon by means
of numbers. The effect lhus produce Is some
what peculiar, as for instance:
"Ah, charming 132, you are the most ador-
able OF all women"

While the TWO are thus exchanging compli-

and calls out in voice OF thunder:

his shoes. Heavens Duke 53 %

But al this point a man in the audience

The Duke answers In surprise: "What have
you to complain of? Seventy-four Is only a

That's just IT. 1t is the very number which
bore when in jail, and am not going to allow
1t to be degraded by having servant dubbed

THE CARRARA OUARRIES.
In the Midst of the Grandest and
Most Savage Scenery.

mOSI SdFdSS SCCnSEys
The marble quarres, which are 400 or
500 in number, are situated far above the
own in the midst of the grandest and the
most savage scenery. The soft aerial hues
which distance lends to the mountains dis
appear on nearer approach. The great
peaks stand up against the sky in fantastic
forms. No trees ofsverdure clothe their
naked sides, no flowers grow, no water
flows to fertilize that soil. The 6000 quar-
rymen who are busy here appear as ants
crawling on the vast hillsides. The mar
bic is Quarried by dynamite. Every mo-
nent explosions rend the air and huge
fragments fly up as if expelled from vol
cano. Often the mine has to be placed in
the perpendicular face of a precipice.
Then the workman is lowered by q rope
and hangs suspended, like the sam Dhire
gatherer, 'twixt earth and heaven" a
dreadful trade. About 10000 tons Of
marble are annually exported, OF which
most goes to America. The quantity is ln-
exhaustible. The entire mass of the Monte
Sagro, 56C0 feet high, which dominates
Carrara, is solid marble.
One of the most famous QuaTries Is In
the valley Of the POlraccio. From this
were extracted in Roman times the 100
tons of marble that served for the con-
| struction OF Iralan's column at Rome.
Here Donasello got the block which he
carved into his St. George and Michael An
gelo the one for his Moses. From here also
came the huge block mentioned in the
memoirs of Benevenuto CeIlini, which
served for the colossal Neptune of Am
mansti in the middle OF the fountain of
the FiaZzi della Signuria al Florence. Un-

WHY NOT, LADIES ?
Why Not Wear Knickerbockers
When Bicycling ?

When Bicycling :?
There does not seem to be any particu-
lar reason why women should not wear
knicker bockers and stockings when BIZ
cycling. since they have for many years
worn the tightest Of bathing costumes. in
Guiding stockings, knee breeches and
sleeveless bodice, making a liberal ex-
posure Of the neck in the surf. The
clinging nature of the material of which
the bathing costumes are made reveals
every line Of the figure of the wearer. Yet
the women never seem TO feel any sense of
outraged modesty when attired in this
fashion. Tney bathe with men, loll
about the beaches ana submit to the
closest kind of scrutiny without any hesi-
tation. The bicycle dresses, which have
recently been adopted, are Infinitely more
modest than the bathing costumes, aud as
the women are moving most of the time
when in sight of the public, and not lolling
about for the inspection of every one, as
they do on the beaches. the effect is far
less startling. The consensus of opinion is
that the boomers which the bicycle Won en-
have adopted. and which are seen in the
park occasionally, are remarkably be-
coming.
a rather stout-looking woman passed up
Seventh avenue yesterday, wearing heavy
bloomers made of the material which men
occasionally use for covert coats. They
were baggv and voluminous, and were fas-
tened by a strap below the knee, but fell
in folds over the boots of the rider. She
wore a belt and loose blouse waist, with
enormous puffed sleeves, while bicycling
cap was settled well over her eyes. II
must be confessed that the outline of the
woman was decidedly grotesque, and a
curious crowd looked after her as she sped
up the street. She looked like nothing
else that has ever been conceived of by
mortal man, but she was serene in the
consciousness that she was in good form, 4"

BERKELEY.

Yesterday WAS particularly quiet day
in Berkeley. No local trains were running,
and people who wished to visit here from
the city were forced to come by way of the
Creek route and electric cars In the
various parts Of the town reside not only
captains of sea-going vessels in active
business. but many retired navy and army
officers. On occasions like the Fourth of
July they like TO display the American
flag. About their residences were seen
not only the national flag bat signal flags
placed in many positions so that they
might be seen to advantage. Viewed from
the hillsides it gave lively appearances to
the place. During the day, at intervals.
Captain Thomas made the air ring by
firing salute from the La Iona Park, sit
uated well up on the elevation back of
Berkeley. 1t is custom with him to do
this on all holidays, but on the Fourth of
July he burns an extra quantity of pow
der in his little cannon.

COXEY'S FAILURE.

The "iriumphal entry" Of General
Coxey and his Army ofth Common
veal into Washington Tuesday was a
lamentable failure. In numbers the
army was not At all impressive. and
when il approached the steps Of the
Capitol, and that supreme moment
came when the Massillon emissary was
to elecirify Congress and the world
by his manifesto. he was summarilv
hustled away by the police, and what
he had looked forward To for weeks a.
the browning act OF his pilgrimage
did not come oil at all.
Arrangements Tor the reception Of
Cnxeys army were perfect; the metro
politan police OF Washington were
equal 10 the emergency and behaved
with great discretion. The army was
permitted to march through the city
unmolested, and il was only at the
last moment, when the Commonweal
entered upon forbidden territory in
the Capitol grounds. that it was inter
iered with. Here the police presen-
ted an unhroken front. and General
Coxey was not even permitted To
stand upon the steps of the Govern
ment building. much less to deliver
any harrangue there.
The summary but entirely regular
and legal manner in which Coxey was
met in Washington and turned from
his purpose illustrate the real strength
Of democratic institutions. lie was ma
more permitted TO violate law or set
foot upon public property than be
would have been in Paris, st. Peters
burg or London, and yet he has been
granted every privilege which the
greatest stickler for individual liberty
could ask. Thus again has it been
demonstrated that the forces Of law
and order are no less effective, even il
they are less harsh. in America than
in Europe.
Now that the chief purpose OF the
Coxey invasion has ended in inglorious
failure. let it be hoped tina. the "com
monweal" may disappear and the
movement pass into history with the
other exploded projects of cranks who
have eonc before. Morning Huid
