FRENCH LITERARY CONDITIONS

The book-at least in Francois pas- sing through an acute crisis. Litera- ture, too, is dying. It has been too fiourishing, too rich, too luxuriant, and too generally cultivated by an average of flattery talents instead of by select aristocracy of the pen. The secondary talents of our time are undeniably far above the secondary talents of former days, and fame, in consequence of the prodigious production by which we are invaded, has become infinitely more difficult of attainment by writers of the first rank. Many, who would probably have been the equals of the great mas- ters Of thought in the last century, do not see the light of success at all. The evil will increase. owing to the lack of barries that might reduce the ever increasing facilities for writing and publishing. In days bygone, the king granted privileges to authors
 The measure was an excellent one. Ii | might. but it will not, be revived Moreover. the indifference of the great public in matters literary seems destined to become infinitely greate,
 and more opaquely dense. We may be. Iieve. then, that French literature i! evolving toward an apparent death, the
 precursors, it may be of a revival.-Oc. tave Uzanne, in The Fortnightly Re.

JAMESON LYCEUM.

Progress of the Construction-Descri l. ton of Interior Arrangements.
 Work is progressing rapidly on Lamp sson Hall, the new building at the end of
 Berkeley Oval. The exterior is practi- koally finished, and large force of work men is now engaged on the interior. It is expected that the structure will b completed early next spring. <.
 The. building is four stories high It contains a large lecture hall, debating rooms, executive offices and recitation rooms. There are entrances to the west
 on High street, to the south on Berkeley
 Oval and to the north. The arrange ment of rooms in the building may be readily understood by considering it in vertical sections. ,. f The west end is the executive section.
 On the ground floor, with an entrance ion High street, are railways and stairs.
 To the left of the hallway is the Bur Esar's main office, with a private office tadjoining. On the second floor above
 the Bursar's office, is the Deans office, with his private office in the rear. On the third floor there are rooms for the
 Deans assistants, the records and the tcalculator. A room for the faculty and l a recitation room occupy the west end I of the fourth floor.
 ! The next section is devoted mainly to the lecture hall. This is about fifty foot tsquare and occupies three stories. A small lecturers room is provided to lt the right of the platform. There are l small balconies on each side of the hall, land a large gallery in the rear. The hall will provide accommoda for about five hundred persons. On the I'fourth floor the space over the hall is
 taken up with six recitation rooms. | The eastern section of the building
 will be the debating headquarters. The
 main debating hall measures approxi-
 mately thirty by forty feet. It is two Istories high. A smaller room to the right, measuring twenty-seven by sev-
 enteen, and one story high is the Yale Union room. The rest of this section is
 taken up with four large recitation rooms and three smaller ones.
 From this outline it will be seen that Lampson Hall will provide room for of- |fices and meeting halls which have hith- Ierto been inconveniently scattered in all available places. The fourteen reel Itation rooms will answer growing de- mand created by the increasing size |entering classes. They are to be devo- ted particularly to history, biology, psy- lchology, geology and physics.

A FRIENDS TRIBUTE.

The following appreciative tribute to the late Rev. R. G. s. McNeille appears in a communication in the Bridgeport Standard:
 ''Rev. R. G. S. McNeille a well known Congregations clergyman, died at Ro- selle, N. J., October 19 He wos born in Philadelphia April 1, 1S41, and gradua- ted from Yale in 1868. After leaving college he studied law and was admit ted to the bar in Philadelphia. He formed the law partnership of McNeille & Cox, his partner being the late Jesse Cox, of Chicago. After few years he returned to New Haven and graduated at the Theological seminary. During his college course he was the founder of the Bethany mission and superinten- dent of the Sunday school, and during his seminary course he led the mission of the Center church, which was organ ized into the Humphrey street church, he being the first pastor. A six years pastorate in the Porter church of Brock ton, Mass, followed. In 1878 he came to Bridgeport, Conn.,, and was pastor of the South church for more than sixteen years, During these pastorates much positive work was accomplished, both in the improvement of the church property and the strengthening of the organiza- tions. III health compelled his resigna- tion in Bridgeport and he sought health in fruit raising in North Carolina. Re- turning to Connecticut he was for two years pastor of the church in Unionville, but his health was far from perfect, and he was compelled to relinquish all min isterial work. He removed to Roselle, and for two years has made a home for his family.
 May 16, 1871, he married Ellen L., daughter of Watson V. Coe, of New Haven, who with four sons and one daughter survive him. *q
 ''Dr. McNeille was warm and sym
 pathetic friend, a student of remarka-
 be grasp of intellect, brilliant preach
 CT and an organizer of unusual abili- ties. His charity was generous and
 widespread and his hospitality most
 cordial. He loved European travel and
 could speak several languages. His friends are everywhere. He had little
 regard for traditions, but supreme re.
 gard for the truth. .......

KNEW WHAT TO DO.
.o,,ns MT. MIIls and the Footpad,

Young Mir. Mills and the Footpad. ! Edward Mills. a young man residing at 2443 North Spring avenue, adopted a I novel method last night in disconcert- ing a negro footpad who confronted him and demanded his money. Mills was walking leisurely along on the Twelfth street viaduct. just south of the Fouth Courts. when a burly negro ordered him to hand over his valtlables. Instead of complying, Mills replied, "I have nothing for you" The negro then reached into his trousers pocket and drew out a pair of brass knucks. The weapons caught ill the side of his pocket and fell 10 the floor of the bridge. Mills kept his eye, fastened on his assailant, who was evidently afraid to stoop to pick the. .lsnucks up. The footpad became excited and reached into his inside coat pocket to rdaw razor. Mills then rushed at the negro, grabbed him up in his arms and hurled him over the rail of the bridge. The man fell fifteen feet below and alighted with dull thud on the top of box car.
 MILLS tAeh 6lapDCo tiiC hiUSho and rushed to police headquarters to call an officer. Sergeants Kavanaugh and Droen hurried to the scene, but the negro was nowhere to be found. He had scrambled from the box car and disappeared among the long rows of cars on the sidings. The officers, after searching in the yards for some time returned to the car to see if there was anything to verify Mills story.
 Broken boards in the top of the car showed that a heavy. weight had fallen on it and there were shoe marks where the negro had scrambled down. Mills says that the negro was about 30 years old, smooth shaven, had very black skin, was feet 10 inches tall, weigh ing about 1e0 pounds. He wore a light colored coat, corduroy trousers and a black slouch hat.
 The police considered Mills hero. He is a muscular young fellow, we'll built about 25 years old and weighs about 150 pounds. He is a clerk. The razor and brass knucks are being held as me- nentoes of his daring act and will be added to Chief Desmond's case of cu- rious for exhibit at>the Worlds Fair.-- St. Louis Globe Democrat.

A visit from one of the firm to this country this Summer brought about the reduction. After month spent in looking over the situation, the conclusion arrived at was that, were KOhler goods offered at as low a price as the best American products, they would immediately obtain as firm a footing here among Chocolate lovers, as in Europe.
