was again begun. The boys aboard the

their caps and shouted. BY this time

served to impress upon the offending

Both Sorry.

A wel1-known New Yorker who has
Just returned from Europe tells the fol-
lowing story:
'I was dining with an English friend
in a Paris cafe. a young Austrian
whom I had met in my travels ap-
preached the table. and short CONVEX
sa ton followed between him and my
self in German. He soon excused him
self and left the place. Then my Eng
lish friend spoke ~:

don't you know
"fWhy?' l asked.
." Because he couldn't speak English
THAT'S very odd I remarked, for
he said to me just before he left that
that it was pity that you couldn't
speak anything but English New

A promise has been made to lodge art
students competing for the PriX de Rome
in the Palace at Compiegne, but it has not
as yet been kept. The ten selected to
compete must mediate in cells at the
EcoIe des Beaux Arts. The ordeal to
which competitors are subjected was be-
gun to-day. They are to work in solitary
confinement during seventy-two days. but
the first thirty-siX hours are the most
irving. The cell is barer than any in
