According to the results of a debate held
in Paris in the presence of an exclusively
feminine audience, consisting of 241 women
and girls, the majority of Frenchwomen is
opposed to the American or scientific edu-
cation of girls in France. At the conclu-
sion of the debate a ballot was taken, and
resulted in 131 votes for eld-time methods,
against 40 in favor of the modern, indie
pendent. scientific girl-Exchange.
In Paris fish and poultry are sold by the
piece, most fruit by the pound, also nearly
all vegetables, like peas, beans. potatoes
and spinach. but salads caulfowers and
cabbages are sold by the head.
Many varieties of food are more expen-
sive in France than IN America. Meat is
precisely double the price, poultry a third
more, cooking butter varies from SO to 40
cents pound in American money, strictly
fresh eggs 60 cents a dozen, coffee 60 cents
a pound. But vegetables and fruits in sea-
son are very inexpensive.
Ice is a great luxury; you buy it at the
cremerie. a store dealing in milk butter
and cheese; 1t costs 3 cents pound. The
cook goes down and brings up this lux

could not get an iceman to bring ice to you

TRIAL FOR TREASON,
Membership in Society to Be Used
Against Gorky.

membership In a secret organization
formed in 1903 to incite strikes and promote
revolution is one of the charges brought
at St Petersburg against M. Annensky, edi-
tor of Russian Wealth, and also probably
involving Maxim Gorky and other members
of the delegation who were arrested with
Gorky and Annensky.
NJ Annensky, whose five terms in the
fortress under arrest made the interior
of the fortress of st. Peter and st. Paul
thoroughly familiar to him, said today
that he had also been required to plead
to the charge of formulating anti-gov-
ernmental proclamations, the penalty for
which offense Is Punishment for life to
Siberia, but that no proof was offered of
either charge. M. Annensky said the prose-
cutor showed him the draft of an address
to the people, alleged to be in the hand
writing of Maxim Gorky. and alterations
in another hand, alleged to be Annenskys S.
Annensky declared that he could not identi-
fly the document or the handwriting.
Only four of the original delegation re-
main in custody. One of these is the
workman KUHN who for a long time es-
capped arrest. because his identity could
not be ascertained by the police; but the
authorities continue to make occasional ar
rests of others in connection with this mat
ter. Those who have been released are
still under charges
In the SecluSon of Tsarskoe- Selo the
struggle over the question of calling the
zemsky sober is being fought out. Init
nations find their way to the public that
one of the main factors in the present sit
uation tending to influence the government
to convene the zemsky sober is the in
creasing difficulty of mobilizing reserves to
replace troops, bound for the front, the be-
lief being that If the zemsky sober were
assembled it would either arouse wave
of patriotism in the country, and itself ia
cihtate the governments task, or if 1t de-
clared in favor of peace, the responsibility
therefor, however Instantaneous the
terms might be, would rest with the ma
tons representatives and not with the
rulers.
