ST. LOUIS FAIR IN DANGER.
A Federal Commissioner Quoted as
 crlticising Management.

A special dispatch from Washington to the Mail and Express says:
 "The success of the Louisiana Pur- chase exposition at St. Louis in 1904 is in peril Its danger is caused by the inert ness and general lack of good manage ment exercised, by the St Louis Worlds Fair corporation, which Is responsible for the executive conduct of the exposi- tion
 That is the statement made by one of the members Of the United States com mission appointed by President McKin- ley. The commissioner would not per- init at this time the use of his name. But he is collating some facts which he says will prove of startling interest to the public as to the rate of progress, or rather -the lack of progress, of the pre- liminary work for the exposition.
 For the exposition congress appro- priated s5,00O 900. But this money is not available until the fair corporation shall have raised $1000o0OO, thus making a total cash contribution of $15, 900, 000 The city of St. Louis has subscribed. Of the remaining $5.000,000 the corporation has raised about $2500.000.
 ''It is of slowness and lack of hustle in securing the completion of this subscrip- tion that the United States commission CT complains. He declares that the ex- position corporation has been strangely lacking in. energy in securing subscrip- lions from the states. Not a single New England state has contributed. although the corporation sent committee there to urge action upon the several gover- nors. The contribution of New York state Is only $50, 000 Pennsylvania Ohio and Indiana have contributed nothing
 But according to the United States commissioner, more serious fault is to be found with the slowness of the exposi- ton corporation in securing foreign ex-

reciting declamatory passages rom Cor nellie and Racine, but his brother Charles "a fair, Jewish-looldng man, not unlike the first Baron James de Rothschild-- beat him in Reclamation at the eccles- iastical school where they passed their youth Charles Blanc triumphed in both masculine and feminine parts, and drew tears from his reverend preceptor's eyes as Adromaque. Louis was best as Poly eucte, or the Cid. Imagine wee Louis Blanc giving the illusion of that heroic warriorl Victor Hugo never seemed grander than in reading some noble work of his own. An old passport given to him in his tWenty-seventh year, speaks of him as having auburn hair.
 Finally, on the subject of hair, am sorry to say that the red-headed boys and girls in the Lille schools-les roux ct les rousses-are at the bottom in ev- erythlng, save in good conduct marks. Nor are they remarkable for good health. The dark boys behave better than the auburn or the fair, and are more seI1si- tive to praise or blame.
 The servant difficulty Is becoming 6 serious one here, though less great than in England. The tax on foreign hirelings affording room for much fiscal vexation, has brought us from bad to worse, as there are not nearly enough of French people in France to do the rough work of the country as 1t should be done. The French go in for skilled worK, as fem- mes de chambre cooks and laundresses, and this tendency increases. Parisians who can afford to pay very high rents employ married couples as a means to attach their domestics to the house. | The husband is valet dc chambre, and the wife femme de chambre. or a more | general servant. and woman brought | In by the hour does the coarse work of the kitchen, or a cook who has married, say, a policeman, or office man, or dray- man, Is hired by the day to attend to | culinary matters. These day servants are extremely convenient, and often ex- cellent, but they are less easy to find than formerly.
 Mime. de Staei, in her Considerations on the French Revolution" wrote this curious paragraph: "The nation would willingly have submitted to the pre-emin- ence of the historic families, and I do not exaggerate in affirming that there are not more than two hundred in France. But the hundred thousand nobles who wished to enjoy privileges on a footing of equality with those of NM. de Montmorenci, de Gramont, de Grill Ion, etc., disgusted generally" Is it wise to diminish the value of titles in the eyes of the public and to increase the number of pretentious and incompetent persons who glorify their otherwise l humble names with the pot-hooks and hangers of the peerage?

Russia and the FInns.

The Russian government has promul' gated four laws which put an end to the constitutional privileges hitherto enjoyed by the Films. The first law puts the Fin nish senate under the direct supervision of the governor general and gives mm the right of veto over all resolutions of the senate. The second empowers the gov ernor general and the reformed" senate summariiy to dismiss any administrative officiai who has not been appointed di- rectIv bv tho czar. The third authorizer the judicial department of the senate. which under the first law Is the tool Of the governor general. to dismiss judges at It's pleasure The fourth provides that no off,cial shall be brought to trial on any charge without the consent of his super- iors. The law is made retrospective in or der to free the police from the responsi- bility for acts already committed. The effects of these enactments is to put the people wholly at the mercy of the Rus sian administrative officials.

CURRENT TOPICS IN PARIS
BY PIERRE RosIER.
Color of Hair Agitates School Author tiles in the Ancient Town of Lille.
ARIs. Deoemher a.-son

- ARIS, December 6.-Some curious O statistics relating to hair have
 been collected by the school authorities at Lille. Thus. the auburn haired boys are generally at the head of the recitation classes and the blonde girls learn their lessons best. Auburn boys and blonde lasses come out high est as arithmeticians. But in compost tion they are nowhere. The dark-haired children of both sexes have the quality of imagination, and in their compost
 tions know how not to fatigue the att tention. They have movement and origin ality. In short they seem. as compared to the auburns and blondes. born styl- ists. Now that think of 1t. Sarah Bern hardt Is, or was, auburn-haired, and Mme Bartet had light brown hair twen- ty-five years ago-so light as to be al- most fair. I should not call the late Mime. Jacques Stern (Croizette) in the heyday of her charms 0 blonde. But she had darkish shade of fair hair that looked like heavy sheeny floss silk, and the ruddiness that one associates with auburn. Mime. Samary was also fair without being exactly a blonde.
 | I dare say the auburn boys and blonde lassies In the Lille elementary schools are of Flemish, that is to say phlegmatic. race. Their brains do not grow at once congested when they stand up to recite 0 and for that reason they keep the mas l tery of the vocal organs. In short, they continue to know what they are about. The dark children are probably of Celtic this is to say Gallic origin. The blood comes with a rush to their brains and they grow confused, splutter and break down. If they could only be taught to remain silent for few moments, they would be all the better for this rush, as the confusion would have passed away, leaving only stimulated mental organs. Goldsmith, who was dark, always began by being confused in conversation. O'Connell wore black wig, but his real hair in youth was auburn. I recollect very old people who heard him plead in his prime speak of 1t as such. His readi- ness was wonderful. But perhaps he might not have recited so we'll what somebody else had written.
 I have rarely heard a great French orator recite. Grevy, the president of the republic, was one of the few, and he reached perfection In reciting Voltaire's s verses to Emile. Gambetta, in a low sweet voice, recited sometimes passages from his favorite poets. Thiers could commit nothing to memory in the way of a poem or a speech by another orator. | He had himself too much to say to en- cumber his mind with the writings of others. Louis Blanc shone, however, in
The Birmingham age-herald., 1902-12-07

hibits. He admits that the erection of buildings at St Louis Is making good progress. They are of noble design and will prove beautiful in their structure. But you cannot make an exposition without exhibits, Is his comment. At present 1t looks as if the St. Louis ex- position would consist chiefly of lath and plaster, with little for its buildings to house.
 There are 90 directors of the exposi- tion corporation. That number in the opinion of the United States commits sioner, is 75 too many. Then this board of directors does not inciude proper rep resentation of different parts of the coun- try. Instead of being national, 1t is al- most wholly local in its membership. The alleged result is that these direc- tors are narrow in their views and policy.
 According to the commissioner, little activity has been stirred in behalf of the exposition among members of the United States diplomatic and consular corps Some circulars have been sent out, but circulars are usually treated in per- functory fashion France is the only im- portant European power that has final ly signifed its purpose to be represent ed and that has made an appropriations Only fair words have come from Eng land, Germany and Russia.
 "The inference from this arraignment is that the best of feeling does not ob- tain between members of the United States commission and the local manage ment of the exposition. The commission CT who made this criticism expressed the highest admiration for President Francis of the St. Louis corporation, but said that MT. Francis was overwhelmed with a mass of detail work that a proper ex- eeutive management would assign to re- sponsible subordinates."

FOR STRIKING MINERS.
Two Car Loads of Provisions and
Clothing to Be Forwarded,

The donation party held last evening at
McCauley's Hall, 200 Pennsylvania avenue
southeast, by the local labor organizations
and business men for the benefit of the
striking miners in the anthracite regions of
Pennsylvania, was declared to be a most
successful affair. For several days dona-
tions have been received and stored in the
large room, and the previous contributions
added TO what was donated last night occu-
pied the greater part of the floor space of
the hall. AS a result of the efforts of the
local sympathizers two car loads of cloth
ing and provisions will be shipped this
evening to Wilkesbarre, Pa, where it will
be distributed to the needy miners.
The movement for assisting the strikers
began about a week ago when Columbia
Lodge, International Associa ton of Machin-
lists of this city, appointed a committee to So
licit aid for the needy miners from the cti-
zens of Washington. The special committee
consisted of w. II. Henze. NJ. A. Bowen, F.
T. Litchtield, Jos. Sweeney, T. B. Lear R.
H. Cowen, Frank Brown. E. S. Stokes. W.
I. Hall, +. Wolfe, W. Rauchenstein, W. S.
Copes and T. Dooley.
The people of Washington responded gen.
erously at the first call, with the result as
stated.
The Pennsylvania railway has agreed to
carry the provisions free of charge to the
various points where the miners strike is
now in progress.
