A SPECULATION IN WASTE PAPER WITH THE
'JOURNAL OFFICIEI..

A SPECULATION IN WASTE PAPER WITH THE
JOURNAL oFFIc1EL"
Paris correspondence of The Pail Mall Gazette
Some interesting details are furnished by NJ
Nandel one of the principal members of the
staff of the Journal Officiel" respecting SatLr-
days issue of that paper which contained tie
list OF the prize winners of the Exposition The
number beat the record for the Journal O..
hcleI' as regards size. 1t contained 3D. pages
OF reading matter. One of the numbers nTb-
ilshed last June had reached its 2SS pages and
IhNoIVeu the authorities by reason of its bulki-
ness in a curious dilemma which had to be
avoided in connection with last Saturdays is
sue. The paper on which the Journal OficieI"
Is printed costs the State about one centfme
and quarter a sheet and each sheet makes
sixteen pages an easy calculation shows that
the actual cost of the paper for each copy
printed Of the issue of June 80 was about
twenty-five centmes and a half or four sous
and a half. By law the Journal OfiicieI" has
to be sold at a sou, so that the loss on every
copy disposed of of this particular number was
considerable. Matters were complicated now
ever, by a further consideration. The number
was no sooner published than there was
wholly unexpected demand for it. The entire
stock was sold at once and there were clamOr-
Gus and seemingly endless inquiries for a further
supply. on the other hand, the copies nys-
terlOuSly disappeared as fast they were car
ried away, and complaints poured in from those
particularly interested that it impossible
to obtain the number for love or money The
explanation was simple, though ii took little
time to find it out. Some wideawake persons
had discovered that the number was so bulky
that To purchase it for and TO resell il as
waste paper was a speculation that left small
margin of profit. Hence the avdty with which
every obtainable copy had been snapped up
To avoid a repetition of this experience a
subterfuge was resorted to in the case of Sat
urday's issue. The list of prize winners was
not included in the ordinary issue but was
published in a supplement forming legally no
part of the official paper. and for which in con-
sequence the authorities could charge the price
they iked-a price that was fixed at a franc.

THE LANGUAGE OF BELGIUM.
SHALL IT BE FLEMISH OR FRENCH?


From The Philadelphia Press.
The question whether Flemish French shall
| be the prevailing language in Belgium is a mat
| ter that is regarded quite seriously there.
1t cannot be agreed, even in Belgium whether
or not Flemish is language.
Some of the leading authorities. among whom
| are prominent Flemings, declare that Flemish is
nothing but a corrupt form of Dutch a dialect
spoken in Flanders, just as the tongue of York
shlre is an English dialect. or any patois a
corruption Of the language of the country where
1t is spoken The theory that Flemish is
ruptiOn of Dutch is consistent with the history
OF the country and its people and, above all, its
literature.
The grammar of the Flemish language is the
Dutch grammar, the dictionary is the Dutch die
uonary, and yet the radical Fleming faction
have been camoring in the Senate and Chamber
for years TO have Flemish made the official Ian
SuaSe OF Belgium when not One-half of the in
| habitants of the country understand it,
At present all laws, official rules. regulations
and DEGREES are printed in both languages, and
in court a Fleming can insist on bein, heard i'm
Flemish if he so desires.
Three languages, or, rather. one language and
two dialects, namely, French Flemish and
Walloon, are spoken in Belgium.
Flemish is confined to the north of the coun-
try, including all Flanders Walloon prevails in
the south, while French is the official and COM
mercial language and the language of choice
among all the well educated classes, and is
spoken throughout the country generally.
1t is said on good authority that the purest
French is to be heard at Liege. In fact the
French spoken there is far superior to that of
Paris, and any who has resided in the two
cities Will recognize this fact at once
There is no doubt that the language of Flan-
ders was formerly identical with the Dutch but
Ei1t @ aiter the separation OF Flanders from the
Netherlands the language degenerated until
now the Flemings, no longer being accustomed
To pure Dutch, wish to raise the dignity of their
dialect by calling it a language.
Holland has a literature of its own. There are
Dutch poets, novelists and historians whose
works have been translated into nearly every
European tongue.
Flanders, until fifty years ago, had neither
poet, novelist nor historian, and it was only as
recently as 1887 that Hendrix Conscience began
to write for the people of Flanders He wrote
Wen and was talented though he wrote in the
hleInlSh tongue, in order that people might
read, for the Dutch of Flanders had become so
corrupt that the FlemingS were unable to read
their mother tongue, and SO had no literature
for themselves.
Others followed in the wake of Conscience
but even now the Flemings can boast of but few
htteTateurs Of merit, and show but very
small library of Flemish works.
New-York tribune., 1900-09-23

This, however is not to be greatly regretted,
for the language possesses no beauty, no purity,
richness, and the Flemish of Client, Antwerp
and Brussels lacks all refinement of tone re-
sembling some low vulgar jargon, greatly pain
ful to the ear. whether spoken by unlettered
or an educated person.
The language of the London cOstermonger,
or the Bowery tough is as music compared
with Antwerp Flemish or the dialect spoken by
the lower classes Of Brussels
This, then. is one of the questions that is
dividing the nation into hostile, bitter clans,
and the folly of the project can be the better
understood when il is realized that nowhere on
the civilized globe is Flemish spoken beyond the
little corner of Europe known as Belgium, and
that even there not half the people can speak it.
The desire of the Flemish politicians TO have
their JarSOn made the language of the country
is nothing but a political strataSem fOI gaining
the favor of the Flemish speaking people.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept 1.-THE cues
tion of disposing Of the bodies inferred
in the graveyard attached to the Old
Fourth Reformed Church, Manayunk. is
causing considerable trouble to the Off
ciaIs. When the trustees sold the church
property to the Polish Catholic Church
the agreement called fer the removal of
the bodies in a reasonable time. The
committee in charge of the removal has
not yet held a meeting to devise pans,
although offers have been made by off,
cials of two cemeteries in that locality
to sell lots on very reasonable terms
AS ever 25G bodies have been inferred
in the church yard during its existence
of seventy-odd years a number Of suits
at law are likely to occur in the event
OF there not being an amieable settle

of the church officials, however, claim
that the church will remove all the
bodies, if requested, either to lots in
cemeteries or church yards now owned
by the relatives, or they will prov de
suitable lots IN one or more of the
nearby cemeteries All expense of re-
