Court Customs of France.

Reports Of the Zola trial confuse
American readers only because they do
not understand the French method of
procedure. The affair seems to be
sort of a Button button, who has the
button game, played under prize ring
rules. 1t is puzzling to understand why
the prisoner and one Of the jurors
should be sparring three friendly
rounds, while the judge, the audience
and the counsel for the defense are
holding a responsive service But it
is all simple when you once catch the
idea
M. du Clam Stew, who for years was
the official referee and timekeeper of
the Seine assizes, has thrown valua BILE
light on the subject. The Judge, he
explains for the benefit of ignorant
American readers, under the system in
vogue, acts as referee, and there are
two objects in view. If the prisoner
can question the veracity or honor of
three jurors or of nine people in the
audience in quick succession. without
being 'downed," he counts three points
for his side and has the next move.
An assault upon the judge counts five
for the side making it. The prosecutor
cannot score actual points by calling
names; but, when the defense has so
scored. if the judge advocate can turn
back somersault and say "conspuez"
before the points are scored thew do
not count The lynching of the prison
er counts leo for the prosecution, which
is game. Free fights among the spec
tators are new modification, and are
not covered by the 1897 rules. still in
use, but it is the custom to score two
for each person killed and one for each
person injured
In the event Of any witness. either in
tentionally or by accident, giving anv
testimony bearing directly or indirectly
on the case. the jury is burned at the
stake. the trial begins all over and
points already scored do not count.
With these few simple rules in mind
it will not be difficult for any one to
follow the Zola trial It will be seen
TOO, II they are applied. that up to date
Zola has scored forty-nine points and
the prosecution ninety-seven. zoIa,s
only apparent chance is to get a draw
by bringing out some fact even remote
iy connected with the case. This. ac-
cording to NJ du Clam Stew is some
thing that has never yet happened

WASHINGTON, Feb 15-Secretary
Gage still delays sending to the SEN
ate a report on the ST. Paul public
building called for by Senator Davis
away back in December. 1t is under
stood that the report will go into de-
tails and show the prospective needs
of the federal departments for the next
twenty years, as intended in the orig
inal bill. There will be a shortage Of
space shown approXimating $4,000 feet.
1t was given out at the capitol today
that the house committee on public
buildings would not hold any meeting
to consider bills asking for any appro-
priation, and if there is anything Sc
cured it must be through regular ap-
preparation bills.

WASHINGTON Feb. 15.-The peonle
of the Sixth district have called a halt
on Congressman Morris efforts to Grip
pie the civil service law. The Civic
Federation of Duluth has by resolu-
ton requested him and other mem
bers of the Minnesota delegation not
only to sustain the present law, but
to work for its extension. The resolu-
ton is signed by 12O of the leading
citizens of Duluth.
AS nearly every member of the Min
nesota delegation is opposed to the
law, it will be somewhat interesting to
watch their future course. 1t is not
believed, however, that the appeal of
the Minnesota constituents will have
any effect upon their future course in
fighting the civil service law.

TO GET COAT OF PAINT.
White House at Washington In Need
of RedecoratinG-WiII BE Done
During President's Absence.

While the president is away the ex-
ecutive mansion will undergo a thor
ough overhauling, and coat of white
paint will be administered to its ex-
terror under the direction of Col.
Bingham, superintendent of public
buildings and grounds. Not since the
administration of President Harrison
has the entire building received full
coat of paint, which it sadly needs.
The white house has been painted so
often that the paint peels off rapidly,
and gives the building an unsightly
appearance, which was not the case
when its present incumbent first took
up his recidence there. During Mai
McKinleys trip to Cleveland and Mon
tauk Point the attendants at the ex-
ecutive mansion gave it thorough
house cleaning.

A LONDON INNOVATION.
Manager Maurice Grau Will Intro
duce the Representation of the
Nibelangen Cycle.

Manager Maurice Grau has returned
to New York from Europe. His early
return is caused by the desire to COM
plete some of the arrangements for
the approaching season of grand opera
at the Metropolitan opera house.
One of the things which require at
tention is the scheme to repeat here
the representation in complete and un-
abridged form of the Nibelungen
Cycle. This was the success of the
recent London season. The perform
ances begin at four o'clock. There is
an intermission of 1h hours for din
ner, and the final curtain falls at II
o'clock. Mr.. Grau was not certain that
this scheme would be acceptable at
New York, but is inclined to make the
experiment. This he said when inter
viewed on the subject of the season.
One of the features OF these London
performances n la Baireuth, was the
arrangement of the "Cycle" dinner
served at the Savoy and Cecil hotels.
The menus were, so to speak, epit-
omized, and the service was accele-
rated.
Sembrich is to be heard in the "Bar-
ber of Seville" in Don Pasquale," and
in "The Daughter of the Regiment" !"
lie Prophete" is to be revived, with
Jean de Reszke and Marie Brema in,
the cast. Eames, Melba and Calve will
all sing taeir familiar roles. schu-
mann Heink is expected to make hit.
AS to Schalk, who is to conduct the
Wagnerian performances, Mr.. Grau IS
confident that he will be liked. He
would have preferred to engage Felix
Mottl or DR.. Muck, but their obliga+
tions were such that they were not at
liberty to accept his offers.
The season is to begin on Novem-
her rs, 1t is to last II weeks, and will
comprise 81 evening performances and
II matinees.

AFTER MANY DAYS."
old-Time Actor Makes 100000 in
Alaska Mines.
Success Comes Only After Years of
Struggle and Weary Waiting
Among First to Reach
the Klondikc.

Thirty years with sock and buskin;
one year in the Klondike, and q for
tune Of 100000. This is an epltome of
the life Of George I. Snow, whose name
is familiar among stage folk all over
the country and who in the days of the
old California stock company played
comedy and tragedy with John Nc
Cullough, Lawrence Barrett, Fechter,
Booth, John I. Raymond and host
of lesser lights in the dramatic firma-
ment.
Shows experiences in the klondike
form tale of romance and adventure
unequaled in the written history of
the golden Yukon. When William \.
Brady was a prompter in the Califor-
MIA theater and Mccullough, Barrett
and Keene were members of the Cali
fornia theater stock company In San
Francisco Snow played Marc Antony,
Drutus and Hawkshaw in THE Ticket
of Leave Man" Twelve years ago he
took his wife, an accomplished actress,
and his two children to Juneau. Thence
he went to Circle City, where he built
and managed the biggest theater in
Alaska. Between seasons he mined.
Even then he did not prosper. At
Circle came the news in '97 of the dis
covery of fabulous riches in the Klon-
dixie, stream that Snow had prospect
ed with Jack McQuesten and other
Yukon pioneers years before.
Hurrying over the ice with his wife
and two children Snow staled the
claims Nos. and 6 on the benches of
Bonanza creek. The other day he
stepped off the deck of the steamer
Progreso at Seattle, Wash, carrying,
with the assistance of two men, eight
sacks filled with gold. He has United
States Assayer Wings receipt for $685.
600 in gold and owns half dozen of
the best claims on Bonanza creek. His
holdings in the Klondike are worth,
according to most reliable estimates,
nearly 100000.

President Rogers and the trustees of
Northwestern university at Evanston,
ILL.,, have received word from New York
that Miss Mary HarFiott Norris, prom
inent in the east as an educator and
author, had accepted the position of
dean of the woman's hall and assistant
professor in the English department.
She was selected by the executive COM
mittee of the board of trustees to
succeed Mrs. Emily Huntington Miller,
who resigned from the chair in June,
after having been at the head of the
hall for seven years. DR.. L. ID. Shep-
pard. who went to New York last
week, ostensibly for the purpose of
negotiating loan for the university,
was authorized by the committee to
confer with Miss Norris and receive
her final decision. Miss Norris had
partially accepted when the offer was
made some time ago.
In English literature Miss Norris is
we'll fitted to fill Mrs. Miller's chair as

affair there. When l stood up" Mr..

me, and how it could have happened 1
do not know, but it was beer mug
filed with water. Well, it was a warm
day, and where there is convention
food spread out on warm day there
are likely to be flies. There were flies,
and one had lighted trustingly on the
surface of the water in that mug. I
saw him as I lifted it, and did the most
natural and humane thing that 1
could think of-blew him off the water.
Well, they cheered for five minutes.
