TO SUPPRESS ANARCHISTS.
Details of the Bill Passed by the
French Cha nklser. - rs,.- 30 ~.


The bill, which in spite of vehement so
cialist and radical opposition, has now
passed the French chamber of Deputies IS,
according to the Paris correspondent of the
Daily News, a most drastic piece of social
legislation. 1t is SO drastic that "a private
letter merely rejecting anarchist views,
opened at the post office, is enough TO send
the writer 10 prison for a period of three
months or more. OdenseS under the bill
viii no longer be under the cognizance of
jury, because with this body there Is al
ways risk of an acquittal, but will be
brought before the correctional tribunal.
Persons convicted will serve their terms of
Imprisonment in solitary confinement with
out, however, having the privilege of re-
duced time which is given to ordinary
prisoners electing to go to a cellular prison.
Section = Of the bill enacts that any per
son who, without becoming amenable to
existing legislation against conspiracy, re-
bellion. &c, has committed an act of
archist propaganda shall be liable to a
sentence of imprisonment for from three
months to two years and a fine of from
leo to 1000 francs. The term anarchist
propaganda Is construed to mean either
the advocacy or the appreciation after the
fact of murder, pillage, arson or theft,
whether uttered publicly or in private. This
includes private correspondence and the dis
tribution of anarchist literature. even when
not advocating crime. Persons sentenced to
terms of upward Of years Imprisonment
may be sentenced at the discretion of the
court 10 compulsory TeSluenCe IOr lie IN a
penal colony, such as Cayenne The courts
will be empowered In any anarchist case
to prohibit newspap ers from publishing the
whole part of the trial. under penalty of
six days to a months imprisonment and a
fine of from 900 to 10000 francs.
This last portion of the new law. is due to
the extraordinary impression produced on
the public mind by the fnischievous ability
with which Emile Henry defended his views
from the dock. In commenting upon
Henry's condemnation. NJ Paul de Sassa g.
nae said: This trial. by It's publicity alone
will do more evil than all the revolutionary
journals and all the anarchial preaching
could dc in several years.

Bisinarck's ilarrgaSes.


Nobody in Germany has felt the evil
effects of the agricultural depression more
keenly than has Bismarck. To pcr~nns who
have read of the magnificent presents given
to Bismarck by the cid emperor it has
been a surprise to learn recently that his
estates are heavily mortgaged. His present
from the old emperor after the Austria
Prussian war of 1856 was 500. 900, and with
this sum be bought his palace at Narzin.
After tie Franco-Prussan war he received
from the same hands the Saxon forest at
Friedrichsruhe, valued at x15O,UOO. He in
herited the ancestral estate at Schoenhau,
sen. On April I. 1855. Bismarck SEVENTEEN
birthday. his admirers throughout the world
gave him that portion of the Schoenhausen
property which his father had been obliyesf
to sell when times were hard: The money
value of the gilt was some S+oO 900 ,Bis-
narck is Also a distilcr. forester and the
owner of large brickyard. Despits an
these advantages, however. he has found IL
impossible to lift the mortgages, amounting
to about $3.50, 900. which have incumbered
his estates for many years. OF his gross
income more than $4,000 must be devoted
every year to paying the interest on his
debts. The burden is not agreeable to the
cid chancellor and he has often remark ed
to his friends recently that his ambition TO
leave an unincumbered property to his chill
dren would never be gratified.

1t has been reported that China has ex-

learn to today that Japan has not received
any Official declaration to that effect.
The news of the encounter between the
japanese and Chinese off the coast Of Co
rea has at last been officially communi-
Gated to Washir gton. A dispatch was re-
ceived at the Japanese legation last night
from the lAik ADDS government. dated July

exactly the same details have been al
ready published. The dispatch also states
that great ~pO1ocativA On the part of the
Chinese compelled Japan's warships to at
tack them TSfis 1c2blegram came via ST
Petersburg, Russia, and indicates that tele-
graphic decentralization by that route is
still open.. Another message received at
the legation, dated the I'D instant. an
rounces the situation in Seoul as being
quiet. The fact that the message occupied
just one Reek in reaching Washington
shows that there was interruption TO the
cable Service over WHOSE wires IL came.
A dispatch received at the Chinese lega-
ton ssfutes the -statepent made in the
message given out by The japanese minis
ter that great proyocatiop' was the cause
of the encounter. According to the Chinese
minister's sdvices.s there was no provoca-
ton whatever for the attack. II IS also an

BILLIARDS RAPIDLY BECOMING POPULAR
WITH FEMININITY.
Exciting, Clean aud Yigorous-Ih' Hsalihfal
Exercise Finds Supporters Among
Royalty.

Billiards Is one OF the few neat and
uufatiguing sports in which ladies can
indulge 20 their hearts content without
much wear and tear 10 dress, complex
ion or constitution. 1t is not half as
rough a game as lawn tennis, and deci-
dedly more scientific and entertaining.
Although the ladies suffer from GER
tain physiological disadvantages which
incapacitate them altogether from max
ing some difficult shots, and though
long skirts and stays are often in the
way, yet there are more expert female
billiardists ia the world than is gener-
ally supposed. There are not few pro-
feSsionsls, and there are hundreds OF
ladies in all the large cities in Europe,
and a few in America, who play bill
iards at home as a parlor game.

But from time immemorial the Emperor
has been allotted q certain number Of
secondary wives or concubines, and
there are, am told, twelve of these in
the palace grounds. They have estab-
lishments Of their own, and are the
daughters OF mobiles. The Crown Prince
IS the son Of one Of them, his mothers
name being Nine. Yanagiwara.
The Crown Prince was 16 years old
last September. He is very bright
boy, dark faced and almond eyed, OF the
most pronounced Japanese type. He
has an establishment OF his own inside
the palace grounds, with his own SER
wants, guards and attendants.

/ Europe have become Jealous advocates
and players of billiards. The Car
ina is said to be an expert and enthusi-
astic player when in good health.
Queen Msrgherita of Italy regards bill
lizards not only as an excellent pastime,
but also as a means to obtain a physical
exercise especially salutary for ladies'.
Princess Leopold, of Bavaria, daugh-
ter of the imperial couple Of Austria, is
also a charming billiardist. The Queen
Regent, Marie Christine, OF Spain, was
a fine player 10 her maiden days.
The ladies suffer from several draw
backs. Their toilet and physiological
construction prevent that nonchalance
and unreStraiut of movement so natural
to the gentlemen. Many of the gym
nastlc, half-recHmbent and limb.sway-
ing positions are difficult, If not alto
gether impossible for them; they are
further hampered by their short arms
when the balls are in a distant position,
and the physical weakness often leaves
them in the lurch in momentous stages
Of the game when the length of the run
means to win or lose. Notwithstanding
these disadvantages there are many
good lady billardists, and in difficult
combinations they show remarkable
skill and patient deliberation.
Most ladies quickly acquire the trick
OF cornering the balls, through which
the greatly desired "long runs" are OBJ
tanned, and many are not bad 'caroms, "
but as a rule very poor at draws" "
They find 1t hard, also, toplay with the
left hand, and every good billiard player
must be able to handle the cue with the
left as we'll as the right hand. Experts
also claim that the ladies' lack the mus
cular energy and sangiroid necessary in
many situations.
NO SPECIAL DRESS NEEDED.
Frauloin Fenmann maintains that
ladies do not need TO encroach on the
masculine wardrobe in order to become
good players. Dresses should be, Of
course, loose-ftting and not cumber-
some, /. e., avoiding profuss trimmings
on the sleeves and skirts. A gronp Of
ladies in neat aud graceful attire en-
gagged at billiard play is most charm
ing spectacle.
Ons thing is noticeable with ladies at
the billiard table. They seem heart
and soul wrapped up in the game. For
that reason their forte is the nursing"
of balls. Life or death depends on every
shot with them here, but they are poor
fancy shots, although our illustrations
show them engaged in some difficult
tasks. A favorlte practice with them in
order to acquire a steady hand and a
sure aim is what is known as the free
shot, where they scOrn the use OF the
bridge. Often when attempting a side
draw the fair billiardist has TO recline or
sit on the table, yet she must manage to
keep one foot on the floor, positions not
much relished by her. Many OF the m
put the men to shame as regards
the grace Of attitude eyinced in back
hand shots, aod many are adopts on
"cushlon banks" and 'cushion caroms.
