day, but planned to remain in good
condition for the entire summer. The
Champs Elysee, for instance. from
which the main entrance to the grounds
will open, will be thanked by decorated
columns, some sculptured. some COW

with cut flowers, which will be renewed
daily.
1t had been originally planned to
erect Il series of overhanging 1ecora-
tions along this avenue from the Place
de la Concord to the Arch de Triompne,
but this scheme was rejected because
it would have interfered with the mag
nificent ViStas which now make the
Champs Elysee the most beautiful ave-

Italiens will be lined with elaborate
decorations. and all the squares and
innumerable circles in Paris will show
their bunting and put on their gala
dress. AT night beautiful designs and
colored lights will take the place Of
the vari-colored flags, and Paris will
become a literal fairyland.

FOR POOR 10.
What Shall We Call Our Doughty
Brave?
New York Tribune.

(New York Tribune)
The lack of any thoroughly satisfac-
tory name for the aboriginal residents
of America was the subject of discus
sion a few weeks ago at a meeting of
the AnthropolOgical society of Wash
inStOn. Colonel F. F. Hilder pointed
out how Inappropriate was the word
Indian" which Columbus applied to
the people of America on the SUPPOSE
ton that the land he found was India.
Major J. W. Powell. formerly of the
geological survey. and now director of
the bureau of ethnOlOgy, said that af-
ter a conference with photographers he
had been led to recommend the use of
'Amerind' as the designation required.
DR.. w. f. MCGEE. president of the So
ciety. remarked that while the word
Indian" is firmly fixed in popular
speech and literature. scientific men
were DESTROYS of having a more accu-
rate term. Inasmuch as the special
lists in any department of knowledge
form the court of last resort, he had
no doubt as to the ultimate adoption
of the new word if the scientists them
selves accepted it.
One advantage of '.Amerind" is that
it carries with it no implication of the
origin of the people to whom it is ap-
piled. Again. it is sufficiently euphon-
ious for all practical purposes 1t can
be pluraliZed in foreign languages as
we'll as our own. and it lends itself
readily TO the formation of adjectives
and adverbs. The word is intended to
indicate all aboriginal tribes of the
American continent and adjacent is
lands. including the Esquimau. The
working ethnolOgists of the society, &C
cording to Science" have unanimous
ly agreed to adopt "Amerind tenta-
lively. and to recommend its adoption
by their fellow students.

may have been the feeling of France
toward America at the time of the
Spanish American war, and whatever
may be the general sentiment of the
people OF France toward the people of
America now, France has certainly
shown the greatest desire to be agree
able TO our commissioners and gener-
Gus TO our exhibitors. Notwithstand-
ing differing reports concerning the
amount of space allotted to America
by the Paris mana gers, the fact re-
mains that America has been given
a larger floor area than any other one

on which our pavilion will stand was
dedicated in the presence of Commits
sioner Peck and his staff, the French
man in charge turned courteously to
the commissioner, and said: Gentle

BAYoNNE CHILD MISSING.
Mary Zak's Parents Thinks She Was Taken
Awny by Two strangers.

Mary Yak. the 6-year- old daughter OF Michael
Yak. a carpenter living at 20 William street.
Bayonne. has been missing from home since
Friday afternoon. Her parents and their
neighbors think she was taken away by two
strangers who slept in Zak's house on Thurs
day night. One Of the men was seen leaving
the neghborhood with the little girl.
Michael Yak Is one OF the prominent members
OF the colony of Slavs near the foot OF East
Twenty-second street. in Bayonne. and he has
been active for some time in the work OF the
Greek Catholic Church there. On Thursday
night there was a social meeting Of the mem
beers Of the church in the rear room OF Andrew
Porubskrs saloon. at 81 John street. only a
block away from Zak's home. After tho meet
ing had closed the members came out into the
barroom. At one OF the tables were sitting
two strangers. The strangers were soon
noticed by the other men and were admitted
to the hospitality OF the place and asked to take
a drink.
The men said that they were looking for
work. One OF them sale mis- name was Craw-
witch and that he came from Nonkers. and the
other said he had come from Pennsylvania.
When, Iak found out that they, had no place. to
sleep he invited them to his home. The in
yttation was accented In the, morning Yak
went away to do, some work. When he came
missing Yak set out to make inquiries. and
he soon found that seyerS persons had seen
to Porubski's saloon, whore each had bought
glass Of beer. The child was with one OF the
men at the time.
James Baker. q butcher on East Twenty
second street. told Yak that one of the men.
who gave his name a. CrawvttOh, called at his
store with Mary Yak and begged for some
money He said ne wanted money to take him
to his home in lonkers. Baker gave the man
% cents. The same man a'terward bought the
little girl some candy at store on East Twen-
ty-second street.
Yak. after searching in vain for his daughter
went to the Bayonne police and told his story
yesterday to the Nonkers police.
The man who said his name was Crawvitch

The little girl could speak some English. Her

her name and where she lived. and that she
