TO HONOR FRANKLIN.
Statue To Be Unveiled IN Paris ON
2OOth AnmiUersary of HIS Birth.

When the 2o0th anniversary of the birth Of Ben
jsnin Franklin is celebrated, January II. 1906.
the kindly regard in which the memory of the
American Minister to France is held in Paris will
be shown by the dedication OF a bronze statue OF
Franklin, given to the city by John H. Harjes, at
present the resident member in Paris of the firm
of Morgan. Harjes & Co. The statue, which will
be replica OF the in front of the Philadelphia
Postof1ce. will be placed in the small grass
covered plot in the Rue Franklin, near the Place
du Trocadero and just in front OF the Trocadero
Palace. which has been given for that purpose by
the Municipal Council Of Paris. The pedestal will
differ from that supporting the Philadelphia figure,
that being deemed massive for the site to be
occupied in Paris
AS early May % last Mr.. Harjes formulated
his offer to NJ. J. Bouvard, administrative director
Of the services OF architecture and promenades of
the city Of Paris. and after some negotiation in
June last, addressed NJ. Decasse. then Minister
of Foreign Affairs, asking him his influence
toward expedting matters on account of the short
ness of time before the anniversary. This letter.
written the day before NJ. Delcasse resigned was
answered by n. Rouver. his successor, in an ex-
ceedingy friendly spirit and conveying the neces-
sary favorable report. AS time precious. Mr.
Harjes had anticipated a favorable answer by
cabling to John J. Boyle, the New-York sculptor,
who produced the Philadelphia statue, giving him
instructions to begin work at the replica.
Since then Mr.. Harjes has received word from the

you the peace conference"
I'D wait q while longer" replied the Constant
Reader. The ENJOYS have kept the prophets
guessing all week. The President stepped into the
breach, and, when Russia refused four out of the
twelve Japanese demands, persuaded the Nlikado,
through Parcn kaneko. hts financial representa-
tive. tc modify his terms. The japanese thereupon
agreed to cancel entirely dernands-that Russia
should surrender her interned warshps and limit
her naval power in the Pacihc-and also consented
not ask indemnity covering the cost of the

Saghaen for S60OO00,O0O"
Well that sounds reasonable interrupted the
Busy Man. II should think Russia would snap up
that chance
Not quite so FAST replied the Constant Reader.
The President, successful with the Mikado. next
turned to the Gar. and sought persuade him also
TO come par way. Mr. Meyer, the American Am
bassadur, called ut Fcterhof but apparently the
visit had no effect. The morning afterward. Count
Lamsdorff the Foreign Minister. said that Russia
would pay not koDeck nor cede a rood of land
This was subsequently denied In reply Baron
Kaneko announced that Japan would concede moth
ing
But the Car can fight on that he has
granted the people a popular assembly and won
their favor said the Busy Man
The Car is popular in spite of his
promise of an assembly" replied the Constant
Reader. All the st. Petersburg papers except two
said that such parliament would be a mere farce
In Poland there such disgust that a general
strike ordered. Socialists terrorized the whole
Baltic coast. Troop trains wrecked in South
ern Russia and soldiers killed-the work of
revolutionists In the mean time a new alliance
between Japan and Great Britain has been secretly
drawn up which they say, binds the two countries
still more closely"
That ought 10 scare the Kaiser remarked the
Busy Man. In our last talk you said he seemed
especially suspicious of England
1T has at least given France confidence" replied
the Constant Reader. She has become holder
toward the Sultan of Morocco than at any time
since the Kaiser visited that potentate and per-
suaded him to resist the growth OF French ,nfu-
ence in his country. France requested the release
of a French Algerian arrested in a Moroccan town
and when the demand was refused French troops
prepared TO invade Morocco from Algeria

In speaking of this. James NJ Beck, who made
an oration at the dedication In Philadelphia, on

The deIay in realizing this project has had at
least one advantage. in that the statue will now
be erected at a time when the entire world VIII
commemorate the 2o1th anniversary of Franklin s
birth; and it will fortunately come at a time When
the relations between France and the United States
are exceptionally cordial. The historic link that
binds the two countries together has already oeeh

hundred years. and forthwith the design
rected by experts and new die cut for the
State Department. This led TO study OF the de-
vices used by the other federal departments. and
designs made for the army and
navy and for the customs service of the Treasury.
Even the flag of the President had TO be altered.
The experts who were consulted in these cases
about the time devised coat-of-arm for
Porto Rico and seal. which gave indi-
cation that the island had passed from Spanish
ereignty to that of the United States In the last
few months. however, Porto Rico has abandoned It's
seal and coat-of-a arms. and returned to It's
former device. on which the name Of the island is
spelled Puerto Rico" and this is affixed to
all official documents to legaltze and authenticate
them. Notwithstanding the fact that In all such
documents the name of the island is spelled Porto
Rico" in conformity with the laws of the United
States.
Almost simultaneously with this action by Porto
Rico, the Insular Government OF the Philippines
was getting rid of its old Spanish seal and substi
tutinS device
On July 3, 1905, the Philippine Government enacted
statute establishing great seal. to be placed
all commissions, official documents and papers and
describing it follows:
Section There is hereby prescribed and adopt
