FRANCE AND ENGLAND MAY FIGHT

In an explanatory reference, editori-
ally made. of a dispatch the other morn
ing about the pending trouble between
France and England, over an African
province, the Eagle ventured the sug-
gestion that there is better chance for
war between the two western European
powers than between The United States
and Spain. There is no question Of
i've ministries of England and France.
European powers seeing that it is now
only a question of a very short time
when the continent of Africa viii be di-
yided up and fall beneath the sway OF
civilization, the greater powers are be-
coming accordingly anxious for share.
This desire is emphasized from the fact
that England is working on both ends
of the continent and getting far more
Than her share The British Niger expe-
dition is about to take possession of a
French claim. Hence the war scare in
Europe. That the dispute is quite seri-
OBS is no longer deniable. That the dis
puted territory thus adversely claimed
is very valuable from a military point
of view and very rich. The question is
whether the English troops now being
sent forward in the interest of the Niger
company and enterprise will use force
or wait until some agreement can he
reached between London and Paris.
The situation in Africa is such that
there is almost infinite opportunity for
such difficulties between great powers.

almost anything may happen where
Jhe interior boundaries are entirely I'M
defined and there is a tendency toward
overlapping claims.
In the Niger region this is especially
the case because France has pushed
her boundaries down into that part of
Africa from the north, advancing across
the Sahara desert from Algeria as well
as working in from the west. at Sene-
gal. Naturally, she has come into con
fiict with England-s claims to terri

coast which are recognized as BRITISH.

DON'T Col

Don't gor This Is the advice OF
Rev. DR.. William S. Rainsford, the rec
tor Of st. Georges fashionable Protest
ant Episcopal church, in New York, to
those who have been invited to THE
bal masque to be given by the bradley
Martins on February 10. Society has
been looking forward to this bal masQue
rs the event of the season.
Mrs. Bradley Martin has reputation
rs q charming and lavish hostess.
Much of her social success has been
attained on the other side of the At
lantic, and consequently the affair ar
ranged to be given on February 10
aroused all the more interest there. In
Vitations were looked forward to eager
ly.
And now comes DIR. Rainsford and
places the entertainment under the
ban. The clergyman's opposition is
based on the contention that this is not
a proper time for such a display of
wealth. A large part of the population
of this country is crying out against
existing social conditions, he says, and
Ostentatious display only widens the
ehasm between the classes.
Il think those who make their home
in this country rather than abroad I'M

want on every side, with discomfort
rife among the lower orders of society.
