EscRoQUER1E is a crime which has no
distinct counterpart in any country
but France. An English lady was re-
Gently sentenced to IL months impris-
onment for ordering a costume she
was not able to pay for, and an Eng
fish governess was sentenced to six
weeks imprisonment for taking a cab
without being able to, pay the fare.
The French are eminently practical
people, and see no great difference be-
tween running off with an article and
getting it without paying for it. It
often happens that the English fall
under the law with regard to escro-
querie. l=i 5#

f. G. LARRABEE, of Salem, Mass, has
just completed a picture of President
Mckinley which is composed of 20 diff
ferent kinds of wood skillfully inlaid,
the woods used coming from Cuba,
Porto Rico, the Philippines, the Ha-
waiian islands and other places with
which the administration is identified.
The portrait is to be presented to the
president by its maker through Con-
gresham Moody. It is a good likeness
and the work is very cleverly done. No
less than ten pieces of wood are inlaid
in the button on the coat alone.

dominant American sentiment. It de-
clares also that the Fiipinos will con-
