FRANCE FIGHTS SHY.
SHE WILL NOT INVITE WAR WITH
GREAT BRITAIN
Lord Salisbury Surprises and
Pleases the BritOns by a Show
of Determination.

LONDON, Oct. 10.-The comments In
public and the newspapers show that
the Marquis of Salisbury's determined
stand on the question Of the occupation
Of FashOda has come as a most agree
able relief and as disposing of all the
theories Of compromise. No whisper Of
dissent is heard anywhere. Both friends
and opponents of the premier are re-
Joicing in the fact that in publishing
the blue book on the Fashoda question
he has burned his bridges behind him.
While it is recognized that the situa-
ton by this publication has become
more difficult for France, there is al
most entire absence of disposition any
where to believe that France proposes
to press her claims to the point of dan
ger. This confidence was demonstrate
ed by the capital tone Of the stock
exchange, after a momentary scare,
and such comment as comes from Paris
also tends to abate alarm. The Matin,
Which is directly inspired by the
French foreign office and which was
foremost in urging extremist views,
voices the more pacific mood which is
apparently obtaining in Paris, saying:
with Great Britain for nominal sover-
eighty over territory at an immense
distance from our possessions on the
Atlantic and are as inaccessible from
our coast anneXations as the mountains
in the moon. We can retain our power
without retaining Fashoda Prudence
should prevent us from loading our
selves with too much territory. We
must colonize, but in moderation"
The newspapers Of Paris this even
ing take a calm view of the situation
and plead for moderation. They ex-
press a sincere desire for a friendly
settlement Of the question when Mai.
Marchands report arrives.
The prevailing view Of political men
is that the French cabinet will find a
way out Of the difficulty in the report
asked from Maj. Marchand, who, it is
expected, in response to a hint from
the French foreign office will declare
that his position at Fashoda is unten-
able. The publication Of such a re-
port, it is held, would fully justify the
French government in recalling him.
A prominent member of the French
embassy in London expressed these
views on the situation this evening:
''The advent of the French and Brit
fsh on the Upper Nile ought not to be
regarded as the meeting of opposing
policies which necessarily exclude one
another, but a clash of commercial in
terests which should be properly clas-
sified and an agreement made War
will certainly not break out over the
Upper Nile question. The differences
at Fashoda will be settled to the gen.
eral satisfaction, but an agreement will
be much easier when the newspapers
Of the two countries cease exciting
public opinion"
The morning papers all renew their
comments upon the Fashoda situation,
but on neither side of the channel is
any idea given that the affair is likely
to lead to war. The worst that can
happen is the resignation of M. de la
Case, the French foreign minister. or
perhaps the whole ministry.

hair is Of no use for the English mar
ket 1t is sent to America.
Human hair is of all lengths, but the
longest grows on corp2as; there is no
telling which is cut from the living or
from the dead. But from the coffin are
CLEANED beauty's loveliest tresses. And
the price Of them is II shillings an
ounce.
Many ladies visit the little house in
Bloomsbury. They shay out their
locks and say: Isn't il beautiful; what
will you give?" And they ask a fabu-
lous price, as if their head carried ten
to twelve pounds of hair instead Of
ten or twelve ounces.
1t is comforting to know that, in the
matter Of hair, England still holds her
own. Thirty years in the trade shows
that we are not becoming more bald.
The demand for scalps is even less than
formerly. In Germany it is different.
Teutons don't keep their hair on in the
way they used to. If nations resemble
Samson, and their strength lies in
their flowing locks, Britain in her old
age grows no weaker.

SNAKE CAUSED PANIC.

Unexpectedly Appeared in the
American Institute Fair.
From the New York Sun.
A series of ear-spIitting shrieks of
the feminine variety and an equally
vociferous mingling Of oaths Of the
genus male startled Policeman Callan
as he was slowly walking across
Fourth avenue. The sounds came from
the top floor of the Academy of De-

door, but was stopped by a small boy,

and had mounted about two steps when
he collided with a man who was in
such a hurry he did not stop to see
where he was going.
There's a snake ten feet long UP

yelled the man, and he, too, ran on at
full speed. Callan grew nervous, but
continued to climb the stairs. and just
before he reached the top a woman
pumped herself into his arms
