Is He RESPONSIBLE /?

Following the dispute of Mrs. Cooper
Hewitt and her milliner comes the story
of a frantic discussion in Paris as to
whether man is responsible for the
bills his wife may run up at her dress
makers. 1t has always been supposed
that in such q case as this the unfOrtu-
nate husband would have to open his
pocketbook wide and pay the amount,
even though his heart strings tugged.
But the Paris courts have said no to
this, and there is a wild stir in conse-
quence throughout the entire world Of
bodice, skirt and coat designers.
The story is a simple one. a certain
who, while exemplary in every other
up a dressmaker's bill and paying moth
the amazing proportions of $4,000. The
husband meanwhile was in complete ig-
norance of her extravaganza, and his
first intimation of it was upon presenta-
ton of the bill. Assuming the mastery
of his household, and bidding defiance to
the world at large, he contested the
claim, with the result that the court OF
appeal cut down the bill to $1,000. and
decided that that was all that he should
pay. The arguments Of the French judi
ciary were that the husband was not
bounds if his vife's expenditure was out
of proportion to his means and out
of proportion to the circle in which they
both lived. The crucial point in the case
was that during these two years the
dressmaker had made neither inquiry of
nor referred to him.-New York Ex-

DUG UP AN OLD WAR RELIC.
Cannon Ball Left in Washington by the
British in 1914.


British in 1914.
The workmen employed in digging for
the foundations of the addition to be
built on the west end Of the government
printing office yesterday found a most in
teresting souvenir of the occupation OF
Washington by the British in 1914. This
was a cannon ball, rough and irregular
from rusting, but evidently once good,
competent six-pound solid shot. A COM
mittee of the Oldest inhabitants pronounce
it unquestionably piece of genuine Brit
ish ammunition.
The history which clears up the mystery
Of it's presence in that place is that the
ground where the government printing
office stands was used by the British as
camping ground for the artillery. Oldest
inhabitants who knew still older lnhabl-
that's who We're on the spot have distinct
picture in mind of the relocated English
men bivouacked on what long after was
called English hill. When the printing
office was built the hill was shaved down,
and where North Capital street is was
filed in, as was also the ground where
the excavation is now in progress. The
British troops undoubtedly left behind
them this cannon ball, which was unob-
served by the small boys and curiosity
seekers who afterWard visited the spot,
which, it must be remembered, was then
out in the country, where houses and peo-
pie were few and far between.
The shot must have been dropped there,
for no firing took place during the Brit
ish occupation, at least none of that sort.

esting relic on his desk as a paper weight

ornament, but one of rare Interest,"

Female Offender.

DR.. Lombroso. the Italisn specialist in
criminology. has written a book on 1.-THE
Female Offender" in which he says:
''The female born GRIM nal is far more
terrible than the male She combines
the worst qualities OF both sexes-the
woman's excessive desire for revenge, cum
ming, cruelty, love of lress and untruth,
fulness; the mans yices, fckleness, fear
lessness, audacity and often muscular
strength. Celtic wrote in the Fifteenth
century: No possible punishments can
deter women from heaping up crime upon
crime. Their perversity of mind is more
fertile in new crimes than the imagination
of "a judge in new punishments.' Rykise said:
Feminine criminality is more cynical,
more depraved and more terrible than the
criminality of the male Rarely says
the italian proverb, is woman wicked.
but when she is she surpasses the man.
Then comes Euripides with this crusher:
The violence of the ocean waves or of
devouring flames is terrible. Terrible is
poverty, but woman is more terrible than
all else ="

Simplicity.

A story at the expense of the Appalachi-

Happy Thought. An excursion party from
the club, it appears, had gone to rural
part of the state, and in default of suffi-
cient hotel accommodations some of the
members were obliged to seek quarters in
a farmhouse.
Simplicity was the order of the day.
Everything was scrupuously clean, but
there was natural absence of some OF
the luxuries of high-priced city hotels.
Some Of the ladies Of the party discovered
that there were no keys in the locks of
their rooms and waited upon the farmers
