A French Dog Story.

The following dog story is vouched
for by the Petit Parisien as true:
A lady named Nine. Amelie Hongre
went out yesterday morning for a
walk in the Avenue de Clichy, taking
with her toy terrier, which she held
by a string, While she was looking
into a shop window two mischevious
boys substituted bone for the dog.
A Great Dane then appeared on the
scene, and, seeing the bone, made a
dash and swallowed it, string includ-
ed. The lady turned round, and, in
despair, cried out that the Great Dane
had eaten her pet.
The little dog was found later on,
much to the joy of his mistress. who
carried him off in a cab.

The plans of Emperor William of
Germany to visit the aged King
Christian of Denmark upon his
eighty fifth birthday, has given new
life to the rumor that a match iasn-
tended between the Crown Prince
and Princess Alexandra of Cumber-
land, a granddaughter of King Chris
tian.
This rumor started several months
ago when the emperor gave orders to
have the royal palace at Hanover
fixed up for the use of his oldest son.
Princess Alexandra is the second
daughter of the Duke and Duchess of
Cumberland, who was Princess Thyra
of Denmark She was born in 1892
Her older sister married Prince
Macmillan of Baden.

LIFE IN A RUT.
Writer Shows How the Judgment
Will Become Impaired.

WFiter ShCWS TOW hne Juo9meuC
Will Become Impaired.
One of the serious features of life
in a rut is the fact that judgment is
impaired. Allowing the mind always
to dwell upon one subject and keep
ing the attention always fixed in one
direction destroys the power to draw
correct conclusions and lead to the
adoption of distorted and peculiar
ideas. The sense of proportion is
lost. They who always labor can
have no true judgment" says Burke
Those who get deeply fixed in a rut
almost always become more or less
queer" as they grow older. This
impairment of the judgment and one
sided way of looking at things lead
to the adoption of hobbies and weird
and extreme doctrines. This is one of
isms and queer theories. Many of
those who adopt them, even though
successful in business or professional
life, have lived SO long in limited
or restricted channels that their
judgment in matters outside becomes
impaired. Their views are narrow
and restricted and their lives run
along a single channel If by chance
they make an excursion outside of it,
their knowledge of the country is SO
limited. that they are apt to get lost,
and either become mired in some bog
of superstition or are taken in by
some community of fanatics

PARIS BEHIND THE TIMES.
First Building With American Com

First Building With American Com-
forts Has Been Erected.
1t is only of late years that even
the more pretentious homes in Paris
would create any enthusiasm in the
minds of Americans, accustomed as
they are to many conveniences which
are considered great luXuries In
France.
1t is no unusual thing to see cart
with a yellow painted bath tub and a
tank of hot water stop before houses
in fashionable quarters.
Elevators have just come into gen
eral use and with the exception OF
those of American manufacture, are
usually slow, uncertain and compli-
Gated in mechanism. Wax candles
are to be seen in the chandeliers as
often as electric lights.
Things are, however, changing. and
last year in the avenue du Bots de
Boulogne a model building was erect
ed, which combines French elegance
with all the American comforts. 1t
is of white sandstone in late Louis
XIV. style with the entrance at the
side through heavy iron and glass
gates.
The building consists of two '@ho-
tells or private residences, and one
apartment. The first hotel occupies
the first two floors, the apartment
the third and the second "hotel' the
fourth and fifth. The rooms for the
servants are on the sixth floor.
The concierge" or gatekeeper, has
his lodge just inside the entrance. He
opens the gates and has the super
vision of the general halls and stair
cases, and also charge of the heating
of the entire house in winter.-Archi-

TOTS OF MIXED BLOOD

Metropolis Where Little Chinese Children Are

The afternoon session opens with
prayer in Chinese and some hymns
are sung, sometimes in Chinese, some
times in English. The prayer and
the occasional hymn are the only
Chinese spoken in the school. 1t is q
source of great grief to the Chinese
inhabitants that there is no place
where the children can be taught their
own language, but no such school ex-
lists in Chinatown.

cries, they are great imitators. Tell
them story, sing them a song, and

A Little Flower Of Chinatown.
memorize what would be impossible
to an American child of the same ago
and standing. But their reasoning
and thinking faculties are not deyel-
oped. There the American child has
the advantage.
The Chinese home consists usually OF
three rooms, the front room in which
the idol is, the general living room
and the bedroom. The Chinese wom-
en- are, generally speaking, good house
keepers, and neatness and order pre-
vail.
The children are so obedient that
they seem hardly human to the Amer
lean observer used to different man
ners, but the Confucion discipline still
prevails and the pert, precocious, dis
Obedient child is unknown in China
town. Just what form of discipline
has brought about this result, who
can say? One Chinese child admitted
that he was whipped when he was
bad, but the American teachers say
that they never see the children pun
ished. But whatever the method it is
efhcacious and is earnestly recon-
mended to mothers CT different creeds
and up-bringing.-New York Sun.

~eHV6 about 100. This census
K fVoJ was taken in shops, at
the schools and with
the help of the stray Chinese guides
who are always ready to give infor-
nation and lead strangers to the diff
ferent points of interest in that pecu-
liar part of Manhattan.
These 100 children include not only
the pure-blooded Chinese, but also
those of mixed parentage-Irish and
Chinese, Italian and Chinese or Ameri-
can and Chinese. 1t is interesting to
study the combinations of race The
American and Irish traits in nearly
every instance predominant over the
Chinese, while with the children OF
Italian and Chinese parents the SINH
larity of complexion and colo-ing Of
hair and eyes make it difficult 20 dis
tinguish them from the pure-blccded
Chinese.
1t is not an easy matter to find the
children of Chinatown. The time and
place must be chosen well. They do
not run wild in the streets like the
children of other tenement districts.
Especially is this true of the children
of pure Chinese blood, who are, as
general thing, carefully housed.
The children of Chinatown are not
early risers. They are unlike the
American child in this as in many
other respects. The saying Early to
bed and early to rise" is without
meaning to them.
The Chinese work late and play
late, rarely retiring before 1 or
o'clock in the morning and sleeping
well into the day. The children are
not excluded from the work or the
nil r,
vain for them in the morning hours.
They are still in the arms of the
Chinese Morpheus.
Perhaps the best place of all to
study them is in the schools, for they
are elusive little creatures and one
must get them where there is little
hope of escape. There are two kim
dergartens in Chinatown. One holds
its sessions in the late morning hours.
the other only in the after noon. At
the first one you are introduced to
Wing Quong, Bessie Wing, Kay Guey,
Ka Son and the "also rams"
Wing Quong engages special inter
est. Wing is to be sent to China at
the request of relatives to remain
until he is Is. He is now about and
looks serious enough at the prospect
of the coming separation from his rel
stives and school chums.
The first question the American
woman visitor is sure to ask relates,
of course, to the Chinese feet, for in
the feminine mind the bound foot is
as closely associated with Chinese
customs as the opium pipe is in the
masculine. She is assured that the
custom has gone out with the fash
ions of yesterday.
The costumes of this school are as
hybrid as the children. The American
dress prevails. There are funny little
trousers which have a homemade look
and awaken doubts in the minds of
the lookers-on as to the direction the
wearer will take. The Jackets are OF
any shape or style, dependent appar-
emily on charitable impulses rather
than set ideas.
But if one has a keen sense of
humor, as well as of pathos, one
should visit the afternoon school. Here
the Chinese children come in costume
