total for these six electoral districts Of only S
electors Thus the 3,i79 electors Of BarcelOnnette
have much weight in the French Parliament
as the 1858 electors Of the IIId District Of Nantes
Moreover, the six Deputies, representing together
only 3434s electors, must always be capable of
carrying the day in Parliament against the FIVE
Deputies, who, however. represent S92S electors;
that is to say. nearly FIVE times than the six
Deputies.
Even the re-establishment of the scrutin de liste
would not satisfy NJ. Roche, because by that sys-
tenn mnor1ties, be they large, are COM
pletely crushed by the majority. He would like to
see the scrutin de liste reesta bshed in modified
form. so as to enable the elector to give all his
votes in favor of one candidate, instead of being
obliged. as was formerly the case, to inscrtbe on
his list the of as many candidates there
were seats TO be filled. He would also not allot
one Deputy for 1000 inhabitants but 1000 elect
ors which would limit the seats in the Chamber
to about three hundred.

MONoCLE FAD REVIVED.
Single Eyeglass Habit Is Coming 1
Again In London.

Single Eyeglass Habit Is Coming In
Again In London.
A London Express representative has
discovered the interesting fact that the
monocle is slowly coming back again.
& Not since the days of Major Pendennis
and the Iron Duke, whom the old sol
der tried to copy, has there been any
thing like the vogue which is now set
ting in in single eyeglasses.
Some who claim to know trace the
origin Of the new fashion to the fact
that officers serving in South Africa
have found them very serviceable; 9th
ers put them down to a revival at Ok
ford and Cambridge.
At the estab ishment Of Messrs. Ross
Of Bond street, who for years have sup
piled the elite with monocles, the re-
porter was informed that the new
craze has been in progress for some
time. It is an undoubted fact that
there is a growing demand for par
ticular type of eyeglass manufactured
to sensitive eyesight.
To a question whether the wearing
Of the single eyeglass was not so much
q necessity as foppish fad the re-
porter received the reply that Of 100
men wearing monocles there would be
perhaps about twenty wearing plain
nonmagnifying glasses window pane
purely for ornament The rest would
require the use of the monocle to help
the defective sight Of one or the other
eye.

BLAMES THE WALLA WALLA.
Cant. Of French Bark Which Was In
Collision with Lost Steamer
Tells His story.

San Francisco, Jan. 1.-THE French
bark Max, Capt. Benoist, which was
in collision with and sank the steamer
Walla WaIa, causing the loss of about
40 lives, and which was towed to this
port Sunday night, was badly damaged
in the accident. Her jibboom, made of
hollow steel, was broken and twisted,
and the tip Of it trailed in the water
on the port side of the vessel and at
about right angle with the line of the
hull. Her stem was twisted and great
gaping holes had been torn in her bow.
There was one almost at the water
line, and another few feet above.
Only her water-tight compartments
kept her from sinking.
The French vessel left Glasgow 100
days ago bound for this port. She was
in ballast and consigned to Frederick
Henry. Her captain had little to say
regarding the disaster except that his
vessel was closely following the rules
of the road when the steamer came
under the bows of his bark. He de-
clared that the lights Of the Max were
properly burning and displayed and
that the men OF his crew saw thessteam-
er for long time before the collision.
He said:
eve could think of no reason why the
men on the steamer did not see US, and, as
the vessels approached, we became anx-
ious. Then it was too late. The steamer
had tried to cross our bows, but had failed.
Just before the crash came the steamer
swung slightly to port as though an eff
fort was being made to pass to our stern,
but the change in her course had been
made too late. The bark struck the
steamer almost amidships on the port side.
For moment they hung together, and then
drifted apart. Our vessel was SO badly
damaged we thought she would sink and
under the circumstances we had all we
could do to take care of ourselves. BY day
light we had beaten well out toward the
sea, and were safe from the breakers, but
our vessel was in great measure unInan-
ageable.
"On Saturday morning we accepted a
tow from the steam schooner Acme, which
later was aided by the cutter McCulloc
The captain added that he thought
the lookout on the Walla Walla was in
#toxicated, but this charge is emphat-
ically denied by Capt. Hall, Of thatyes-
sci, who says there were three men
on watch at the time. Second Officer
lie Chavalier, of the Max, told sub
stantially the same story as the cap-
tain.
