A Fortified Flat In Pnris.

A French newspaper discovered or
pretends to have discovered, fortified
fiat In Paris. A sixth floor apartment
was rented three years ago, with a
permission in the lease to the tenant to
make any alterations desired. Since
then the house has changed slightly
from day to day, Smiths came and
put up steel shutters before the win
dows. rney were shutters very much
like those one sees In front of shops on
the boulevards. but thicker and of
steel. Then a steel platform was
erected on the roof and fitted with a
searchlight. The staircase between the
fourth and fifth floors was narrowed.
and a steel door was substituted for
the wooden one at the head of it. An
other steel door protected the staircase
leading to the roof, and all the other
doors in the fiat were exchanged for
solid oak. Cupboards were made in
the walls and were fitted with false
bottoms. In one was an iron bedstead.
which could be made to disappear into
the wall with one movement. The
whole hat was fitted with electric
wires. The Paris paper says the occu-
pant is a royalist who was once tried
for plotting against the republic.

THE CHURCH sPIRE.
Passing of This Ancient symbol OF
the House of Worship.

Passing Of This Ancient symbol Of
the House OF Worship.
In the old days, when the church was
chiefly regarded as a place in which to
worship on Sunday, the spire was a
perfect, visible symbol of the character
Of the building 1t was a sign of Gods
house, and as such had its use. Aside
from this the spire had a bell, and, per-
haps, clock. Now, how changed! The
rapid commercial progress of the era
nas shown no sentimental regard for
homes, churches or anything else.
The Baptlsts Of late seem to have
taken the most united move to get
away from the spire and all that it
means, but they are going to the other
extreme. Many of their new churches
look like public buildings, and some re-
semble a Cairo mosque The Metho-
dists, while doing away with the spire,
have compromised in many instances
on a tower.
The Norman and English Gothic or
perpendicular Gothic" has come into
AASA AhfbA III NAly GuuEtuts. lulS style
is at once dignifed and full of strength
because Of its massiveness. One Of
New York's best churches of this type
is the North Presbyterian on West
One Hundred and Fifty-ffth street. It
has a short, square tower, carrying a
clock and bell. Another new Presbyte-
rian church, Northminster, above Cen
tral park, is utterly devoid of spire
tower or skyline adornment.
One Of the strangest looking churches
IN New York city is to be that of the
Harlem Presbyterian. 1t is strictly
oriental at every point, startllngly By
.antine from its front elevation, four
tories high, to the gilded dome and col
II effects. The necessity for institu-
iOnalism knows no law except availa-
lie room. One church in Pittsburg, re-
emily completed. has fifty-two rooms

weIbecIS Abbey's Unique Entrance.

Welbeck, the Duke of POrtland's
residence, has the most unique entrance
Of any house in the world, for it is moth
ing more or less than a subterranean
passage. On passing through the gates
the visitor is conducted into a yawning
tunnel, through which the daylight
filters by means Of great bulbs of glass
let into the roof This tunnel is wide
enough for two carriages to pass
abreast. As is well known, the late
duke scrupulously stunned his fellow
creatures. and he built this grim under
ground gallery in order that he might
go backward and forward without be-
ing seen. The whole Of the estate is
undermined with these tunnels, which
branch off in every direction from the
abbey, and each has its own secret
means Of entrance and exit, while ff-
teen Of them have their terinini in
lodges whose rooms are also built un-
derground and which can only be open
ed with the dukes master key.

WOMEN IN CHINA.
The Division OF the Sexes and the
Injustice IL Works.


j. The Division of the Sexes and I'll,
d Injustice IL Works.
: The most essential and conspjcuou,
/. mark of heathenism in China today /.
E the division Of the sexes. It divides
the empire into two classes and robs
a each Of the help which the other is in.
tended to supply. 1t is astonishing to
zee to what extent this rule of division
is carried. In the families of the bet
ter class the male and female members
are kept strictly apart. The different
sexes even haVs different servants.
Brothers and sisters are not allowed TO
associate together after the boys begin
their studies, which is usually at the
age Of five years.
The social gatherings where both
sexes meet is not only unknown, but is
regarded with adherence. To them
no country could show greater signs Of
moral degeneracy and barbarism than
to indulge in mixed social gatherings.
Even the working people seldom ap-
pear in the streets with their wives.
and on the rare occasions when they
do the man walks behind his wife to
see that she conducts herself properly.
1t is unnecessary to say that among the
people Of the higher classes the hus-
band and wife are never seen together
in the street or in any public place.
The law requires man to mourn
three years for the death Of a father /
and 100 days for the death of a mother
but man would be ostracized socially |
If he gave any signs of grief at the
death Of his wife. Probably many a
Chinese husband becomes fond of his
wife after marriage-he has no oppor-
tunity preViously-but it is a breach of
good manners to give any sign Of such
a nature.
Two Intimate friends engaged in con
versation would never think Of men
tionlng the name Of any female rela-
tive. That common question, How is
your wife," is never heard in China
and would be considered a gross and
objectionable insult even between the
most intimate friends. Chinese gentle
men never mention. look or speak to
members Of the other sex except those
II their own family. In order that
here shall be no embarrassing chance
meetings when calling on a friend the
'isitor heralds his approach by cough
ng as he nears the house. thus giving
he Objectionable females time to make
heir escape It would be sign of
'oor breeding to fail to give this sign.

Hunt Down Criminals.

At the risk of repetition. let me say
again that my plea is, not for immunity
TO, but for the most unsparing exposure
Of the politician who betrays his trust.
OF the big business men who makes or
spends his fortune IN illegitimate or cor
rupt ways. There should be a resolute
effort to hunt every such man out of the
position he has disgraced. Expose the
crime and hunt down the criminal; but
remember that even In the case of crime
II II is attacked in sensational lurid and
untruthful fashion. the attack may do
more damage to the public mind than the
crime itself 1t Is because 1 feel that
there should be no rest in the endless
war against the forces Of evil that I
ask that the war be conducted with san
ity as well as with resolution. The men
with the muck-rakes are often indis-
pensahle to the well being OF society;
but only If they know when to stop
raking the muck, and to look upward
TO the celestial crown above them, to
the crown OF worthy endeavor.
To assan the great and admitted evils
Of our political and Industrial life with
such crude and sweeping cancellations
as to include decent men IN the general
condemnation means the soaring OF the
public conscience. There. results a gem
era1 attitude either of cynical BELIEF in
and Indifference TO public corruption. or
else Of a dlstrustful inability to discrimi-
nate between the good and the bad
Either attitude Is fraught with untold
damage to the country as whole.
At this moment we are passing through
a period OF great unrest-social. political
and Industrial unrest. II is Of the utmost
importance for our future that this should

against life, Of mere dissat-
