Bordeaux-Paris express recently NJ Albert
RouX, Partisan lawyer, was returning to

be able to sleep on the journey he had
taken a seat in a coupe carriage, in which
he was the only passenger. AS soon as the
train had started on its journey NJ. Roux
made preparations to lie down. and was
doing, when he was awakened by Pc
culiar odor which seemed to have suddenly
invaded the compartment. and which, ac-
cordng to NJ. Roux. resembled spirits of
wine. AS he had small spirit lamp in his
travelling bag, M. Roux thought this might
have got broken. AS he was getting up to
inspect it M. Roux noticed man on the
footboard of his carriage endeavoring to
open the door, which. fortunately, was
also locked from the inside. NJ. Roux drew
a revolver which he had in his pocket and
pulled the alarm, the train being brought
to stapdstill between ST. Sulpice and

under the religious obligation of all Mus

Mecca.
The sultan is supreme in his authority
over the lives and property Of his subjects,
but is advised in matters of state by n
council of elders. Under him, but not fully
acknowledging his authority, are a number
of petty chiefs, called Dattos, who collect

rather the initial purchase, should be the
Musee Scolaire, published in Paris, which
consists of over one hundred colered car
toons, each cartoon displaying a combina-
ton of specimens wired to the pasteboard
colored designs and text. In this way the
making OF such substances as glass, paper,
cloth, bronze, ETC., Is illustrated, each car
toon of the series having the materials.
processes and stages of manufacture shown
by natural specimens and colored pictures.
This was practically what was done a few
years ago in the technical museum of the
Pratt Institute. Unfortunately, the collec-
ton in that museum, which was excellent,
had been dispersed, most of the specimens
being sent to other departments in the in
stitute, where. of course, the main idea Of
the technical museum is entirely lost sight
