THE news comes that England has
at last decided to begin the construc-
tion OF an immense dock at Gibral-
tar. This will put an end to the
rumor that Great Britain intends to
give the rock back to Spain--to which
country it PROFESSIONALLY belongs
in return for certain advantages on
the Morocco coast. The rumor was
well founded; the advice OF some CT
England's ablest admirals has been to
give up the fortress, Butat last the
British cabinet, observing that
Morocco is to be a bone OF conten-
tion, perhaps the subject OF a great
naval war, decides to keep what it
has got. In 20 session OF Gibraltar,
it controls the entrance to the Medi-
terranean. III France sets up shop

century, the greatest naval battle Of

A WOMAN who has recently writ
ten on "The Highest Education of
Women" argues that educated wom-
en- are not paying the debt they owe
to society by turning to. practical ac-
count the education they have re-
ceived. This is strange ground for
a woman to assume. A good definiI
tion of practical results Of education
is work that adds to the moral,
mental, or material wealth OF the
world" 1t is not easy to say how
much educated women are contrib
uting to the material wealth OF the
world, but on the moral and mental
side they certainly are doing their
full share, or perhaps more. TO say
nothing of the women preachers,
lawyers, lecturers and @reformers" of
various kinds, we should say tina,
more women than men are engaged
in the work OF teaching, than which
there is assuredly nothing of create
mental or moral value to the world.
And not few women teachers have
attained eminence in their profess
sion. A much juster view than that
cited would be that women have
paid society more handsomely than
men for the education they have re-
ceived-for which, be it said, they
owe society precious little, If any
thing. n;

THE shocking news Of the death of
President Carnot, of France, at the
hands Of an assassin was received
throughout Europe with a sense Of
horror and added fear as to the out
look for the immediate future in the
French republic, The incidents lead
ing up to the calamity were of kind
to make the terror of the deed all the
more striking. In the midst of a
fete at the international exhibition
at Lyons, whittier the President had
gone to assist in the celebrations of
the international exposition, M. Car
not was struck down in the act of
bowling from his carriage in response
to the cheers OF crowd of enthusi-
astic people. From the fact that the
assassin is young foreig ner, and APP
parently but slightly familiar with
the French tongue, it may be sup
posed that the murder is the work Of
a mailman or OF an anarchist rather
than the outgrOwth OF any domestic
political intrigues. However that
may be, the prospect for France dur
ing the coming weeks is very grave
one, and the eyes Of Europe will be
conferred on the republic for some
time to come. Torn and rent by pc.
litical enmities and passions, with
many parties Of as many different
,,;nds md n pumbar of On, hitiouc
men striving for the honors of the
Presidency, the outcome Of future
events in France is beyond any power
to foretell. AS is well known, M.
.Carnot had good reason to expect re.
election for another term. Hitherto
his administration had been marked
by conservatism, honesty of purpose
and the respect. and confidence of
even the diverse warning political
factions which in France are many
and bitterly at variance. With him
as President there was at least the
prospect Of seven years more of sta.
bility in the republic. What will fol.
low now it is simply impossible To
say, for In the excited temper which
the French assume after any public
calamity the recurrence of even rev.
olution itself Is by no means impos,i
Bile. Meantime aud in the hour OF
her calamity France has the sympathy
Of all people throughout the civilized

larly sincere and straightforward Of.

Varied History.

The Academic Franchise was
founded by Cardinal Richelieu in
1885, lived long enough to snub Cor
nellie and Moliere, was abolished in
1893, was revived two years later and
made a useful body by Napoleon in
1903. Since then 1t has been a part
OF the Institute of France. 1t elects
its own members, who are now
known as the Forty lmmortals. Its
duties are TO preserve the purity Of
the French language, to encourage
and preserve French literature, ana
TO distribute several queer prizes,
such, for instance, as $4,000 each
year to that member OF the working
class who has, performed the most
virtuous action OF the year, aud $500
every other year to the rising genius
who is considered to be most in need
Of and most worthy OF encourage
ment The members are supposed
to meet twice week, and are paid
So. S7-a Napoleon--for every meet
ing they attend. They receive, be-
sides, a salary OF $500 year. lola,
who has been rejected some six or
seven times, holds to the tradition
that membership in the Academy is
the highest literary honor that can
be bestowed upon Frenchman.

French AnecdOte.

M. de la Reynie, travelling one day
incognito, met a man OF enormous
obesity at the inn where they change
the horses on the road to Paris. He
was a farmer, and he had with him
two letters of recommendation from
the Governor of his proyinceLone to
the Kings physician and the other to
a celebrated lawyer. When they ar
rived In Paris, La Reynie took the
man to hisrhotef, and assured him
that he was In position to help him
in his quest. He at once led him to
a dungeon where there were jug Of
water and a piece of bread suspended
by string from the ceiling. Rage,
screams, and cries of the despairing
prisoner were in vain. In the nat
ure Of things, the man was presently
compelled to attempt forget the only
food he had, aud after numerous
jumps and as many tumbles, he sue
ceeded at length in gaining posses

of this diet and these gymnastics,
La Reypie gave him his liberty. But

threatened to lodge complaint with
