LABORI is FAITHFUL
Dreyfus' Junior Advocate a Man
Worthy Of Confidence.
somethinx Aboutthc BrilMant lrrench
Lawyer Who Has Been Made the
Victim of the Enemies of
France.

Fernand Gustave CASTOR Labori is ac-
counted one of the ablest lawyers of
France. He comes from the south,
from the province of Haute-Garonne.
For many years his family has resided
in Toulouse, where he was born. His
father was a soldier in the Franco-Prus-
sian war and was decorated for bravery
on the field of battle. Fernand, who is
not more than 40 years of age, was too
young to see service in that war. His
education was directed with view to
fitting him for the profession in which
he has since attained distinction. When
he was admitted to the bar with the de-
gree of master of law he removed to
Paris. Maitre Labori is striking fig
ure, broad-shouldered, athletic and
with pleasing face. He was possessed
at first of considerable means and soon
was one of the favorites in fashionable
society. He was man of strong con-
Fvictions, however, and when Valiant,
the anarchist, threw dynamite bomb
in the chamber of deputies and wound
ed several of the lawmakers Maitre La
bori, the society favorite, had ideas
about human rights and went forward
to offer his services as counsel for the
despised anarchist.
At the conclusion of that trial Labori
wrote book on what he declared to be
an invasion of rights. Valiant was
convicted and executed, although no
one was killed by the throwing of the
bomb. Labori contended that as no
murder had been committed his client
should not suffer the penalty for MUIR
der. The strong stand he took then
lost him his place in society, but it did
not affect his standing ut the bar.
When lola was put on trial, because
of his accusations made in connection
with the Dreyfus case. Maitre Labori
defended him. In that trial he displayed

tiers which come from men in every
walk of life. The majority of them are
from curious individuals, inquiring If
it is true that he has been converted
from scoffer to believer. Many are
from infidels, who call him a fool, and
one man says he must have been under
hypnotic influence. He has received
hundreds of letters from clergymen,
congratulating him on his changed be-
lief. The men who have written kind
letters to the old gentleman receive his
thanks, and to those who have essayed
to criticise him he endeavors to show
the error of their harsh words.
Mr.. Waggoner is 76 years old, and for
years has been one of the most noted in
fidels in. the United States. He is a
brainy lawyer, college-bred man and
forceful writer. He has had much
newspaper experience. He has written
some of the most scathing denuncia-
lions Of the Bible ever printed, and had

Paul Deroulede, the French agitator
and president of the so-called League OF

was arrested at Paris the other day, on
the charge Of high treason. has been
a pestiferous nuisance for many years.
He is an eccentric poet. who has been

President Felix Faure. For the latter
offense he was brought to trial before
the assize court in Paris, but acquitted,
although in the course of the proceed
ings he admitted that he wished to lead
a brigade to overthrow the parlia-
mentary republic, that his action was
fully premeditated, and that, he would
not cease his attempts to overthrow
parliamentarism. He acknowledged
he was guilty of all the charges except
the allegation that he wanted to lead
the soldiers astray without leader.
He said: II wanted general at their
head. I would have preferred the COM
mander in chief. Unhappily, 1 had no
choice" He finished his harangue by
demanding a plebisciary repsblic, as
sorting at the same time that he never
intended to turn the soldiers from their
duty, but only wished to carry Gen.
Roget, who was in command of the
troops, with him.

whife:ysmUro,yn Eggs.

) 1t is generally thought by household
authorities, that bTown-shelled eggs are
superior. to the white-shelled varieties.
An investigation has been made into
the relative merits of the two kinds of
eggs at the California experiment sta
ton, with the result that the impress
sion that the brown-shelled eggs are
richer is not borne out by chemical
analysis. Further, physical exam
ination proves that the main points of
superiority. though extremely slight,
are possessed by the white-shelled eggs.
But practically there is no difference,
so far as the food value is concerned,
between the two classes.

feeling toward him. He was advised
not to bring his family to Rennes, but
the reasons advanced for his not doing

he should. He said the presence of his
wife and children would be constant
suggestion to him to be careful.
He experienced great difficulty in
finding apartments for himself and
family at the little town. 1t was said
the feeling of the people against Drey-

compelled to pay an exorbitant price

rinction is that he is one of the>most
violent of all the enemies of Dreyfus
and of the French republic. When the
Franco-German war broke out he went
to the front, but was captured at Sedan.
The Germans carried him to Breslau,
but he escaped and returned to the
French army, where he remained un-
til peace was declared. Then he wrote
novels and plays preaching the doc
-trine of revenge against the Prussians,
and tending to the apotheosis of that
army which seemed to him more noble
in defeat than it could have been in VIC
tory. He is tall and slight, wears a
beard, and looks like an Englishman.
He is intensely patriotic, and makes no
attempt to conceal his hatred of aid
foreigners. He hates Dreyfus, too, and
on Sunday, September 25, 1898, at a
meeting to protest against the revision
of the Dreyfus case, he presided and de-
.livered furious TRADE against Prime
Minister Brisson and all who had
shown desire for revision. He de-
.clared that if revolution occurred and
the scaffold was erected in Paris the
first head that ought to fall was that of
'Clemenceau, and that if Dreyfus ever
returned to France he and his partisans
would be lynched. This meeting was
An furtherance of the reorganization of
the League of Patriots, which had been
suppressed some years before by the
government. OF this recognized
league Deroulede became president.
He hates so much that he hates also the
constituted government of France,
and at the death of President Faure
undertook to overthrow the republic
and establish government with the
kindred spirits through the streets to
the barracxr, and was summarily ar
:rested-not on the charge of treason,
.or attempted coup d'etat, of which he
would have been proud, but on the
more common accusation of trespass.
It#almost Disguised him with the pro-
fession of patriot. He is. however, still
intensely bitter in his enmity to Drey-
fus, and the formation of the League of
Patriots is largely his own work Be-
sides, he. is an aspiring spirit of the
.anti-Sematic leagues that have lately
. been formed in Paris. Since the affair
of the barracks, February %, 1899,
DerQu1ede has boldly proclaimed his.
purpose to overthrow the republic. His
present arrest was decided on as a;
means Of checking what otherwise
might in time become dangerous or
ganization. 1t is found that the League
eof Patriots has had an existence since
July, 1898, with lingering plot to seize
the government by force. The docu-
ments captured leave no room to doubt
and clear case seems assured against
this spectacular and annoying but not
really dangerous Frenchman.
