May day found Paris armed to the

was necessary, for several clashes of

were stoned and they had to charge the
rioters with drawn revolvers. The en-

Later fifty additional arrests were
made.
The first disturbance occurred at Il
O'Clock, when the police called on the
troops to assist them in keeping the
crowds circulating on the Place de la
Republique. Two squadrons of cavalry
quickly swung into the square, while
$50 arrests of disorderly persons were
made by the police. The prisoners were
formed into groups and two magiS-
trateS sitting at the neighboring bar
racks promptly tried the disturbers Of
the peace and committed them to Jail.
This, however, was not sufficient to
break up the crowds on the square.
Bodies of strikers chanting the revolu-
tionary hymn attacked the police, using
bricks and cobblestones. Reinforce
ments of police soon arrived. They
charged the crowd with drawn revolv-
ers and the rioters broke and fed The
StoreGeenerS in the neighborhoOd of the
scene of the affray hastily closed their
doors and shutters, fearing a general
spread of the agitation, but the police
succeeded in combining the demonstra-
ton to the streets near the Palace de la
Republique. Up to noon the disorder
had been localized and the authorities
were easy masters of the situation.
Detachments of troops were posted
around the Bank of France and in the
streets leading thereto. The American
embassy was also strongly guarded by
police.
A crowd of striking printers attempt

The oId-Fashfoned Wife,

A pretty young married woman said
to a friend the other day, Mary is
such an old-fashioned wife. She has
such queer notions about her duty to
her husband and home. Why, she de-
clines all invitations unless he is in
cluded, and never under any circum-
stances is away from home when he
returns at night.
'Then she always gets up to break
fast with him. and even goes so far as
to prepare certain favorite dishes for
him instead of leaving such business to
the cook. She does not go away in the
summer until he is able to go, too. and
in fact she fuses over him in the most
absurd fashion"
After the pretty creature had van
.shed to join a party of friends at din
ner. reflective mood stole over the
friend, and she thought how much bet
ter 1t would be if there were more old
fashioned wives.

Canal Contractors Expect to
Get COoIie Labor at Less
Than ST a Day.

Washington. Aug. 12.-Care will be ia
ken by the United States government to
prevent contractors from doing injustice
to the Chinese laborers employed for work
on the Panama canal The specifications
advertising for proposals to supply $500
Chinese to the canal commission will stip-
Elate that the secretary of war shall have
the privilege of passing on contracts
which labor agents make with Chinese
who are to be sent to the isthmus. This
provision will make it possible for Sec
rotary Taft to prevent discrimination
against the coolies by INSCRIPTIONS con-
tractors. Under this arrangement the
United States government will know ex-
actly what the Chinese are paid by the
labor agents and the Chinese government
will be able 70 afford its subjects pro-
lection on the isthmus because of the ease
with which this government will be able
to regulate the conditions between the la
bOrers and the agents.
Some labor agents believe that with the
many restrictions the canal commission
proposes placing on contractors 1t will not
be possible to supply the Cinnamon at less
than 81 a day. Other agents are of the
opinion that the coolies can be supplied
for so or 60 cents a day with fair mar
gin Of profit to the contractors.
