NO SMOKING IN PUBLIC.
In some German Town. the Weed is FRO,
htbIted ON the Streets.

In Some German Towns the Weed rs Pro-
lmbited on the streets.
The consumption of tobacco OF all
kinds in France, according to recently
compiled statistics. is nearly one hun
dred and twenty-five million pounds
per year. An analysis of the figures
shows that the people of northern
France use nearly four times as much
per capita as those in the southern
provinces. Almost every other country
OF Europe, however, consumes more
smoking tobacco in proportion to it's
population than does France.
This is especially tile case with Ger
many. In many small German towns
smoking in the streets is forbidden.
Less than fifty years ago II man
ventured on the streets of Berlin with
cigar in his mouth he would he liable
to arrest. The same provision existed
until lsis ut Vienna, though the law
was not observed by the populacc. The
town OF Brock, in Holland, which is
said to he the clcanest city in the
world, has long forbidden the people
within its walls to smoke after sunset
IN the streets unless with covered
pipe, in order that the cindcrs NAV
not be blown out" Smoking with nm
uncovered pipe in German or Austrian
forests Is an otfense that is vigorously
punished, and as result of this regu-
iation forest fires are rare in those
countries.

that Il is undignifed Tor them TO enter

never see their brides till the wedding
day, all having been arranged for

groom are infants. The bride and
bridegroom invite their most intimate
friends TO assist them in dressing their
hair in the manner BETTING their new
estate. Then the bridegroom mounts
white pony, which Is led by two
servants, while two others on either
side support the rider In his saddle.

WOULD PAY THE PRINCIPAL.
Dutch Holders of Union Pacific Bonds
Make Uncle Sam an Offer.

Washington, Feb. THE house COM
mittee on Pacific railroads today dis
cusSed the prospects of legislation
Chairman Reilly was directed to con-
fer with the attorney general and the
secretary of the interior as to whether
any legislation is necessary to protect
the interest of the United States under
the existing circumstances. When the
committee adjourned a motion by Rep
resentative Kyle of Mississippi, to re-
port the Reilly bill back to the house
was pending. Chairman Reilly read a
letter from Boissevain, a Holland ban
ker. representing the Dutch holders of
Union Pacific securities, who appeared
before the committee last summer It
contained an offer to pay the govern
ment the principal of all government
as they fall due and to furnish good
guarantees for carrying out the plan if
the government will agree to it.
There are about $34, 100000 guaranteed
bonds Of the Union Pacific. This prop
osition brought on a discussion of the
plan to accept payment for all the
government aided roads on the same
terms. This is the plan offered as a
substitute for the Reilly bill by Repre-
sentative Turner and one which Sena-
tor Brice is said to favor. Some of the
supporters of the Reilly bill in the COM
mittee said they considered this plan
as next to the Reilly bill the best oppor-
tunity for the governmnt to recover
its investment, but the opponents of the
Reilly bill objected to any proposition to
remit the interest on these bonds, which
will amount to more than the princi-
PAL. The consensus of opinion in the
committee seems that the Reilly bill will
not get another hearing from this con-
greSS
