THE CARNOT MEDAL.

Baron de Coubertin's Patriotic Plan For
Interesting Americans In French Politics.
Titled foreigners are usually more in
terested in American heiresses than they
are in American politics, but Baron
Pierre lie cubertin is an exception to
the rule. He has twice crossed the big
pond for the purpose of studying the So
cial condition and politics of the United
States, and although he is a great ad-
mirer OF American educational methods
and Yankee erudition he is a trifle dis
appointed in the prevailing lack of
knowledge of French modern politics
displayed by the young men of Frances
sister republic.
When the baron first visited the Unit
ed States, in 1889, he was the bearer of
a commission from the French minister
Of public instruction to visit the univer-
stiles of the country and turn in re-
port. This he did, but while engaged in
the work Of inspection he discovered the
paucity of special knowledge in this
country concerning French politics. He
was much interested in America, and
very naturally desired that America
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1895-06-07

should be more interested in France.
Accordingly, when he returned to Amer
lea, in 1898, he offered annual prizes to
a number of American universities for
the students who should display the
best knowledge of French institutions
and modern politics. The prizes are YER
neil medals, which the donor calls the
Carnot medals in honor of the martyr
president Of France, although the name
Pierre de Coubertin' appears on the
reverse.
Thus far the medals have been offered
at Princeton university, the University
of Louisiana, iceland Stanford, Jr., uni
Versity and the University of California.
The two last named universities COM
pete together for the same medal, which
is awarded at the conclusion of an inter
collegiate debate between the young ora
tors of the two seats of learning. In
speaking of his enterprise, the baron
says:
ST am trying to introduce a study of
French politics in America, and at the
same time endeavoring to stimulate an
interest in American politics among my
own countrymen. I must admit, how
sver, that thus far have not attained
any great amount of success in this re.

IL these times when so many are IN
enforced idleness and are compelled to
subsist on public charity it does seem
that man who has the opportunity and Is
willing to earn his living by honest labor
should be permitted to do so. Yet at
Hiawatha the other day a drayman
was arrested and fined $40 for plying his
vocation without having paid license

he hadn't paid the license because he
had no money. He could not pay the
fine for the same reason and was sent to
