| remember some years ago that an Amer
lean woman settled in one Of the neighbor
ing streets with her three boys, who were
of an age not to conveniently stand being
Gagged within the narrow walls of Partisan
apartment, and they went out to play in
the street as they had been accustomed in
America To keep themselves in trim they
fought with each other after they had vain
ly challenged boys of the neighborhood.
and the stones they threw oftentimes took
the wrong direction and damaged doors
and panes of glass. The ringing of door
bells, too, become so obnoxious that the
people of the street went to the commits
saire de police of their quarter and com
planned.
The mother, who was politely asked to
keep her boys indoors, laughed at the in
reference of her neighbors and said that
her nerves forbade her doing any such
thing, and declared that as the street was a
public thoroughfare she would send out
her boys to play whenever their noise dis
turbed her. The boys of course also laughed
in the face of Partisan urban regulations
and continued their FRANKS But the
French police signified to the woman on
governmental paper that within a certain
time she must leave the house or be locked
up. She, indignant at the want of freedom
in European cities, went back with her boys
to America.-Paris Cor. Brooklyn Eagle.
