AMERICANS AND THE PARIS EN-
POSITIOs..

AMERICANS AND THE PARIS En-
POSITIOS.
The unfriendIy criticism OF the Amer
| lean people by the French and the nos
tile tone of the French press against
this country owing to the war has OPP
Grated thus far to seriously impede the
progress Of the slrndry civil appropria-
ton bill which contains clause appro-
propriating S750,C00 for the American
exhibit at the Paris exposition Of 1890,
and friends Of the appropriation, includ-
ing the American agents, are in an
anxious frame of mind on the subject.
Naturally they distrust the spirit OF
Congress in view Of the hostile attitude
which the influential Paris press has
assumed in regard to the war between
the United States and Spain. The press
of Madrid is hardly more venpmous to-
ward the United States than a portion
of the Paris press.
The force behind this unfriendly crit
icism is purely selfish. The great
French banks and leading capitalists
have hundreds of millions of dollars in
vested in Spanish loans. They influence
the press, the orators and other sources
of public opinion The entire sentiment
in France that is hostile to the United
States comes only from these infiu-
ences. But France must be held respon-
sible for it's press and the attitude of
those who represent its financial in
tereSts.
It is very important to Paris and
France that the United States should be
represented at the Paris exposition. If
the vast space in the Paris buildings
allotted to the United States should re-
main vacant for the term of the expo
sition, or if tie managers should fill
it with other exhibits it would be a
greater loss to Paris in trade and pres
tige than the loss of many years of in
terest on the Spanish bonds held by
Frenchmen.
Recent reports are to the effect that
French representatives have given to
the Washington authorities renewed
assurances of their distinguished con-
sideration, with statements that the
popular Paris press does not represent
the government nor the 2oople of that
country with regard to the United
United States. This should be taken
with a few grains of salt. AS a rule
the French press follows French pop
ular opinion and it probably does in
! this case, for it is NO secret that Amer
leans have frequently CT late been in
suited and rudely jostled in the streets
of Paris by French crowds.
In many sections of the United States
We are told, Frerch goods have been
| boycotted, patriotic women taking the
lead in the boycott, which is well cal
culated to spread wherever French
goods are sold in this country and the
French can far better afford to lose all
of their Spanish investments than to
lose the custom of American women.
Finally, of what use is it for the
two nations to sign reciprocity trade
| agreement as they have Just done
while the people of the two countries
maintain this unfriendly attitude to-
ward each other?

titles. says:
There we're two Castellane families,
one from Provence and Ono from TOul-
Ouse. The former, which IL now extinct,
rightly bore the title. The Toulouse Cas-
tellAnes, 10 whom belongs Miss Gould's
husband, never had a title, but assumed
one when the Provence family died out.
Count de ROhan-ChabOt, who married
Miss Hayward. il not a count, either.
His name Is ChRbOt. The name OF De
ROhan he took from his irst wife.
There Is no Baron de GieTs, although
the man whom ChRuneey NJ. DepeW I
ward, Miss Collins, married last year,
bears that name. The Due Decazes, hns-
band OF Mary Singer, OF New York, is a
son OF a police project, and bears a title
Of no value In France, being granted by

Don't act silly or owly it a bill ia pre-.

Is from your creditor, and that you ART
the party under obligation. lie gave you
the goods that be had 10 pay for, and tO0k

that bill collectors are human beings

Barber, the right half Of the college
team, sprained his ankle and was obliged
to retire. Winter took his place. The
college team made steady advances into
the enemy's territory and got the ball
within five yards Of the Indians line,
when 1t changed hands and the Indians
rapidly regained their lost ground. Il
began 10 look as though they were about
10 score when Winter carried tho ball
around the right end and twenty Eve
yards toward the center. Foul tackllug
gave the college boys ten yards more,
The Indians again got possession OF the
