Beggars of Paris Prey
.t on American Tourists

Paris, Aug. 25.-An American
writer to the Herald complaining of
the number Of beggars in Paris, he says
that during a walk from the Arc de
Trimophe to the Rue de la Paix he
counted fourteen beggars who accosted
him. --- g.
An analysis of this total, he declares,
showed that eight Of these were dirty
women carrying borrowed infants. Four
were young boys or girls under II
years, having mothers or padrones near
by, and the remaining were one-legged,
legless and otherwise manned men.
Americans are accosted every day by
two or more glib -tongued young Ameri-
can men, either in the Rue de la Paix,
the avenue de l'Opera or in the vicin-
hard luck stories to tell. They be-
seech their countrymen to advance as
sistance until a remittance, cabled for
from Berlin or elsewhere, arrives.

What the Yankees Buy
in English Metropolis

London, Aug. 25.-What do Ameri.
can visitors take home from 'England9
The Daily Mail has been making in
quiries into the subject and has arrived
at the conclusion that the women buy
dress, millinery, gloves and little nick
mack Of jewelry. They save about
SO per cent on the dresses and the Jew
elry is type which they cannot OBJ
tain in the provincial towns from which
the August guests mostly come.
Clothing is what the men buy, Many
tailors say that the cost Of wel1-ftting
clothes made here Of excellent material
is at least half half that Of the same
articles made in the states. Another
class Of articles much bought is leather
bags for travelling purposes. These are
slightly cheaper here than in the states
and are, it is commended, better made.
One feature Of this years incursion
of Americans is the greater number Of
visitors from the southern states. A
few years ago hardly an American
traveller would be from the south. At
the present moment eight out of ten
are from places famous in records Of
the civil war.

Ottawa, Ont, Aug. 25.-An astonish-
ing and quite unexpected effect of the
wonderful industrial development
which is going on in Canada is that it
is actually decreasing the number of
habitual drunkards. All along the line
of the Canadian Pacific railway from
Montreal to the Pacific coast wages are
SO high that the men usually found
hanging around saloons feel that they
can no longer afford to waste their
time, SO have gone to- work
This is the condition of things found
by l.. o. Armstrong, head Of the Cana
dian Pacific tourist department during
his western trip. He says that every
where the cry is. for more men, and
there is competition among EMPLOYERS
to secure them. Farmers and others
even come into the towns and search
the saloons, and even if they find a
man helplessly drunk they will take
him off to their homes, sober him up
and then put him to work at good
wages. The consequence is that just
now the bars everywhere are deserted.

obtain one for themselves. 49,,
One well-known corsetiere says she
always advises her customers to avoid
tight lacing, as it ruins the figure and
shortens the life. She contends it is a
mistake to imagine that man admires
a tiny waist as what he admires is a
trim and rounded. waist, which is easily
cultivated without discomfort or
examining the body into corsets which
resemble mail armor.'

On the other hand, West End cos

to give her customers wasp waist

she studies her customers. 1t woman

Gigantic Russ Canal
Rockefeller Scheme?

Paris, Aug. 25.-The Temps publish
es rema1 kable story concerning an al
legged project Of John D. Rockefeller
to build a gigantic canal for Russia.
The Temps goes On to say that the
project grew out of certain PROPOSE
tions made last January by Rockefeller,
who, it says, sent to St. Petersburg to
a representative to ask government
concession for a Baltic Black sea canal
which the Temps explains is the same
canal known as the Flourens project,
Rockefeller, it says, counting on the
great benefit that would accrue from
the land, proposed to advance $500,00O,-
900 francs in gold, taking as reirp-
bursement fractional paper, payable
periodically as the work advanced.
Count .Witte favored the project, but
wiser fnanciers told him he was chas-
ing mirage and warned him that it
must be trap, as the United. States
would not let any such sum in gold
leave the country unless there was an
excellent reason for it.

Lured by Big Tips,
Walters Quit London

London, Aug. 25.-The close of the
London season has brought about a
derth of walters and the chief walters
employment agencies are receiving doz-
ems of applications, which they are un-
cry summar some 5000 "knights of the
Napkin leave London for the CONT
nent and English seaside places. This
year, however, a greater number than
usual has gone abroad.
r. Kipfer, secretary Of the London
branch of the Union Helveita, which in
other words is the Swiss Hotel En-
ployees' society, in explaining the
cause ~ this migration, threw light on
the tipping question. !.
Zone reason is an increasing CONT
mental demand for walters who speak
English, but the most important .rea-
son lies in. the fact that London walters
find it difficult matter to make a de-
cent living in hotels and boarding
houses on the English coasts: English
men who tip freely when abroad will,
when in their own country. offer a ho-
tel employee 6 pence or shilling tor a
fortnight g incessant attention.
"In consequence fewer walters have
this year accepted engagements at
these. places.'
Another feature of the tipping ques-
ton, mentioned by Mr.. Kipfer was that
in many seaside hotels the head waiter
presents the bills to patrons and peck
cts all tips with result that an ordin'
ary waiter finds it difficult to earn iv'
! ing wages.

Shopkeepers, particularly clothiers
