The girls and boys took in ever,

the while. Just across the aisle, op
posite the boys, SAT woman holding
a baby. A pale, tired dispairing look
was on her face, her eyes were full Of
suffering The little one was fretfu
and cried piteously, but the young
mother was too exhausted to try to
quiet the baby.
"Ob, just listen to that young ONT

pertly.

Paris, Oct. 15.-The first real riot
GUS demonstration in France since the
riots of May last took place at the
Longchamps race course Sunday and
as a result fighting lasted for over
four hours between the authorities and
a mob of frantic people and more than
one hundred persons were injured,
severally fatally.
There was an enormous crowd at
the race course Sunday when the
racing began. 1t was crowd typical
of Partisan life.
The program comprised six races
and the first two passed on without
incident. There were nine starters
in the free handicap, the next event,
and four, including the favorite, were
practically left at the post. The favor
lite was not able to get through until
near the finish line. when he came
with a great rush, but did not quite
get up. Most of the crowd thought
the favorite won and when an outsider
was posted as the actual purse gath
erer the crowd went crazy. They in
yaded the course, tore down the
judges stand, and were 1t not for the
fact that the police acted promptly
and surrounded the officials, it is like
| ly that some one would have been kill
ed. One man knocked down the jock
ey on the favorite and kicked him in
the head, badly injuring him.
The Infatuated mob then charged
upon the paddock and enclosure and
ftore them down, breaking everything
they could.
| While doing this gang of the ia
nous "Guerrillas of Paris" who con-
gregated at the track, made an assault
on the place where the mutuals are
sold. and although the men in charge
tried in every way to protect theil
money they failed and the crowd sue
ceeded in getting away with 100000
The police on duty could do nothing
to check the mob and they called upol
the firemen to aid them. Although
the latter sent several streams Of
water into the faces of the rioters they
were useless and finally the mounted
moned, arrived and charged the crowd
They also used their revolvers freely
but fired for the most part over tn
heads of the crowd or into the ground
After several hours of fighting tn
crowd was eventually dispersed, bu
not until after many heads had beel
broken.
