IN THE LATIN QUARTER.


Students Pay More Attention to Work
Since the Bloomsr Came.
Lady cyclists who affect what Is
called rational dress. alias knicker-
bockers. may take a hint from what Is
taking place In Paris. A rumor was
spread recently that the project of po-
lice intended to Issue an order prohib-
iting women from wearing masculine
attire within the Notifications. Hear
Ing OF this. the professors of the great
teaching institutions have presented a
petition to M. Lepine. praying him not
to make mis- order imperative in the
Latin Quarter. The reason they as
sign is that since the ladies OF that
district took to wearing knickerbock-
ers, whether cycling or not. they had
lost all charm for the students, who
were now attending to their classes
and their duties with an assiduity
hitherto unknown. The professors fear
that IL rational dress be protector
tally repressed. and the young women
compelled to resume their former CO.
quetish costumes. their old ascendancy
over the students will be renewed,
with corresponding decrease of study.

He Was From Boston.

A Boston man travelling through the
South was obliged to stop in a small
town where there was but one hotel. at
which the accommodations were hardly
to be called elaborate. When the colored
waiter brought his dinner the Boston
man found that he was to have roast
beef, stewed tomatoes. corn, peas. pota-
toes and coffee, the vegetables served in
the usual stone china canoes. Presently
he said to the waiter:
Dick. pass the spoons"
The waiter rolled his eyes In genuine
amazement.
