SKINS OF WILD ANIMALS.
Many Are Bee oming Scarce and Increas-
ing In Value.

From the Shoe and Leather Reporter.
Skins Of wild animals are daily becoming
more rare and valuable. The spread of civiliza-
ton 10 the determination of the monerchs OF
the plain. the forest the jungle and the hills.
and their hides now ornament many a mu-
scum, clubhouse and drawing room.
The skin Of the lion. the king OF beasts, is
among the most valuable of the rare skins.
1t is kin gly. even as was the animal himself,
and reveals the great strength and courage
OF the mighty form that it once protected.
The skin OF the full grown lion is about
three yards long and one and onehalf yards
wide. Its hair is neither bright nor pretty.
but its great shaggy name crowns it like a
rare jewel and ma kes 1t valuable.
The skin OF the tiger is much prettier than
the skin OF the lion. and it. too, reveals the
character Of the beast which it once protected.
Its bearded che eks reveal the tigers fsrocty
and cunning and its yellow and black tiger
nature OF the great cat.
The American ia guar furnishes pretty skin.
despite its reddish white belly and its spots
instead OF stripes. The leopard. too has
a pretty pelt, its fur being light yellow with
black spots. The skin Of the black panther
is also much admired.
Bear skins are trophies IL. many a civilized
home. The black or tie Canadian bear
is the most common. The polar bear sup
plies a beautiful. soft. white. furry skin, but
it is very rare The skin OF the American
grizzly is now also quite rare, Although
deer and moose are common game for hunters.
yet few have succeeded in preserving their
pets with the fur on for any long period.
The American black wolf skin, with white
spots on its snout and breast. is admired
by some people. The Siberian wolf furnishes
a fine. soft fur skin. Among farmer lads in
this country 1t Is popular to catch foxes
during the winter and to tan their skins for
rugs and for ornaments. but the fox skin
to-day isn't by any means rs valuable as
are the skins Of larger and fercer animals.
though the fox is growing more and more
scarce.
A coat OF skins Of reindeer fawns only
a few days old is said to be worth thousands
OF dollars. The skins match perfectly in
color, and they are doubled so that the coat
is the same INSIDE "a outside. This coat
is al light as an ordinary raincoat but warmer
than heavy fur. and it Is also waterproof
Some skins of Manchurlan tigers are also
valuable. One skin is IA feet long. A mon
ster skin is that from 200 pound grizzly;
IL measures "a feet long. and the BEARS head
is two feet thick Some rabbit skins from
Now Zealand may also be seen, though rabbit
skins are not as rare or valuable.

I v

The gist of the chapter on the Finance
of the Ancien Regime contributed by Mr..
Henry Higgs of his Ma jesty 5 Treasury, is the
demonst ration that the most pressing prob
lem before Louis XVI. was how to avert the
imminent bankruptcy of the State, while
relieving the excessive incidents of taxa
ton upon the lower and middle classes.
No system, no expedients, could affect these
objects simultaneously without such a
remodeling Of the constitutional system
and Of the machinery Of government as
would amount to a complete, if bloodless
revolution. That is why, among the varied
influences which provoked the uprising
against the old Bourbon monarchy,
primary and principal place must be as
signed to vicious finance. Mr.. Higgs re-
calls that Turgot's minute TO the Hing upon
municipalities indicated the main source of
trouble, when he said: THE mischief
comes from the fact that the nation is
completely without a Constitution" FL
nance it was that rendered organic changes
in the State Indispensable. 1t is true that
the present financial system Of equally
autocratic Russia works after a fashion;
but it is not one which the history and
temperament of the French people
would have allowed them to accept from
Louis XVI. This truth was brou ght out
clearly by Roedsrer when. addressing the
Constituent Assembly, he said: "The unani-
NOUS mandate Of France had settled the
question. Finance must be placed out
side the interference OF the executive
power" The Assembly virtually took upon
itself the functions Of treasury control
q 10 %
and the scrutiny OF acoounts-but the task
was an impossible one for its financial rep
resentatives. who formed, at best, collec-
ton of unframed amateurs, already abb
sorbed by politics. 1t was reserved for
the Empire and for the restored monarchy
to introduce a rational financial system.
OF such a system the dncien regime exhip.
tied not even pretenss. France in the
eighteenth century was without budget.
The very word first appears officially in
law OF 1905. Living from hand to mouth,
its accounts little better than statements
OF balances in the exchequer or Of cash re.
oeipts and payments actually effected,
1t may almost be said that the financial prin.
oiple of the dncien regime was to have no
system" p.
In the chapter under review, facts and
figures are arrayed by Mr.. Higgs to prove
that on the eve of the Revolution, not with
the numerous reforms Of Turgot
and Of Necker. the finances OF France ex-
emplified every possible defect "The Gov
eminent did not pay its way. With gross
receipts Of Az 900 900 francs, it had an
annual charge of 23e, 900 900 for debt alone.

An American Dante cortiance.

No form of scholarly work, We imagine.
is more thoroughly altrustic than the prep
aration of a concordance. 1t Is drearilv
toilsome labor from which the laborer
can expect no money no fame. not even
the satisfaction Of having fashioned Use
full tool for himself, for by the time the work
is completed he must be so stepped In
his author that the concordance can help
him but little 1t is only love for his au-
thor and the hope that he may help others
that can hold him to his task. The busy
men who use them in haste think only of
the Bible concordance, the Shakespeare
concordance--thankful for their existence.
but careless of the authors who compiled
them. Now and then a student perhaps
looks at the name on the title page and
acknowledges indebtedness to a person.
It is labor of this kind that Prof. ed
ward Stevens Sheldon Of Harvard Uni
versity has performed for future students
Of Dante, aided by Mr.. Arnold c. White
and the members of the Cambridge Dante
Society in tho Concordance dele Opere
Italiane in Prosa del Canzoniere di Dante
Alighieri7 CThe Oxford University Press).
The work was instigated by Prof. Charles
Eliot Norton, president of the Dante So
ciety, which publishes the book Members
OF the society read the vita Nuova.' the
"Convivio' and the "Canzonere" for words.
preparing slips which numbered nearly
5000. These were turned over to Prof
Sheldon to collate, revise and edit, a labor
which took up three years of his time.
Finally the Clarendon Press at Oxford
undertook to print the book. -''.
1t is remarkable that this contribution
to Italian letters is entirely the work OF
glish speaking scholars. The text OF
Dante used Is that of the edition Of DR.. f.
Moore, published at Oxford, though the
variants OF Fraticelli's and Serafini's edi-
tons are included concordance to the
Divine Comedy was published by Prof
E. A. Fay of the Dante Society some years
ago. Now this concordance by Harvard
scholars completes the work. In hand
some large octave volume Of $50 pages
every word in the prose works and tho
minor poems will be found. The arrange
ment is that of double list, the poetica!
quotations preceding those in prose.
Perhaps It is ungracous to ask for more
where so much is given. Whenever a
second edition of this work or of the Divina
Commedia concordance is called for We
trust the Dante Society will try to combine
the two. The typographical difficulties
and those Of bulk are not insuperable, for
the much more voluminous Bible and
Shakespeare are comprised in single vol
umes no larger than this. The convenience
of being able to refer to Dante in single
alphabet should carry weight. As 1t Is,
Prof Sheldon and his collea CUES have
earned the gratitude Of all lovers of Dante.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1905-07-02

In the limited space at our command We
can hardly be expected to furnish even
an outline Of the views set forth by thir-
teen authors in twenty-five chapters COM
prising 100 large octave pages. What we
can do is to indicate by excerpts the fulness
and faithfulness with which the ripest
and most authoritative results OF the latest
researches are brought together in the
book before us. To that end we shall Sc
lect by preference certain topics regarding
which some misconception prevailed among
ordinary readers up to a comparatively
recent period. Take, especially the ques-
ton whether the townspeople and peasantry
werc worse OF in France during the closing
years OF the dncien regime than were at
the time the corresponding classes in other
European countries That the question
should be answered in the affirmative is
taken for granted by those persons whose
notions of the facts are derived. as we have
suggested, from Dckenss, Dumas's or
Victor Hugo's novels, or, at best, from
Carlyle's French Revolution As re-
CARDS the supposed grievances OF the bour-
oeoisie Prof. Montague points out that
the middle class was very differently COM
posed In France and in England. In Eng
land there has always been rural middle
class, made up either of yeomen or of sub
stantial tenant farmers. In France, on
the other hand, tenant farmers were rare,
save in few provinces, and the proprietor
who cultivated his own land had usually
SO little Of 1t as not to rise above the level
of q peasant. OF what middle class there
was in French rural districts, the lawyers
made UP the chief part, Thus the French
middle olass was eminently urban, bour-
osoisie in the proper sense Of that term.
The towns had gained privileges and ex-
emptions Of various kinds. proportoned
to their wealth and power, and those citi-
zens who belonged to the governing body
or to any Of the professional corporations
were usually favored above their fellows
Tho unfair and oppressive taxation piled
upon the jewellers in the country, espe-
cially the tax known a. the franc fei, pay

eitixsns from following the English prac-
tise Of buying small estates and setting

an office. and with 1t the privileges and the


dignity Of a servant of the Crown,
In the country a townsman would have
found little society while at home he had
friends and connections who gave him
consequence, and he could often exact
full reparation for any afront offered ny
a noble, There is. indeed, no doubt that
French industry and commerce had grown
steadily since the death OF Louis XIV. and
the urban class had increased in numbers
and riches. Francs then enjoyed supe-
riority in certain manufactures whicn
