REAL WAR WORK
BY FRENCH ARMY
ManeuVerS Prove Ability TO
Cope With TruCulent
Kaiser.

PARIS. Sept. 1.-THE army maneuvers
this month have clearly demonstrated.
among other things. that the French
soldier in endurance under the most
harassing conditions is not eXcelled by
even the japanese. In the tropical heat
which has accompanied the maneuvers
the French soldier has shown little
fatigue even after long and forced
marches, while the remarkable enthus-
iasm OF every man engaged. even the
reservists has impressed itself as note
worthy upon all foreign observers.
This years maneuvers have been so
far as possible real war" The PROB
lens solved have been those that would
actually confront fighting forces upon
the actual field Of battle
In a measure the operations have en-
braced the most difficult tests Of the
lessons Of the recent Russo-Japanese
conflict. At Langres, for instance, the
garrison and siege artillery have put
into effect the lessons OF Port Arthur.
The scene Of the maueuyers lies forty
miles north Of Paris. and has had as
Its scope a district bounded on the north
by the forest Of Compiegne, where Mr.
Rockefeller spent his recent vacation
abroad. and on the west by the forest
OF HallaJe and Chantilly.
The maneuveFs have shown without
question that the French army was
never IN better condition than this year
For the last few years the maneuVers
have been more like play, and have been
marked with but little enthusiasm by
either the ettlcers or men This year,
thanks 20 the truculent attitude OF the
Kaiser before the Algeciras conference
things have been different. The scare
which France received then made her
realize very clearly how uaprepared she
was for war. and that this unprepared-
ness Is overcome has been Conylncingly
shown by these maneuyers.

and Queen Maud. of Norway (Kfng
Edwards daughter), have always been
a devoted and happy couple. but they
have had a slight "tiT" recently over
the question Of furniture and an Eng

Their place in Christiania is still ax-
tremely bare Of furniture. especially in
the bedrooms, and the King suggested
that the Queen should send for her
pretty furniture from Appleton. her
cottage near Sandringham.
This the Queen absolutely declined to
do. Then the question Of giving un her

argued that the Norwegian peonIe

Headgear in Commons.

The effects Of the recent bloodless
revolution IN England are now fully
realized by a visit TO the house of
commons. The absence CT the regula-
ton top-hat and the presence OF what
is Familiarity called the Bowler" is
eloquent of the change that has taken
place.
The headgear which is now worn by
the Labor party has never been seen,
save with rare exceptions, within the
solemn walls of Westminster, and yet
there is something singularly interest
ing in the fact that these men. for
the most part small and Tugged-lOOking.

struggled for bread, have worked in
the bowels of the earth, have stood be-
fore the furnaces in the great factories.
at an age when the members who sit
opposite to them were engaged in crick-
ct in the playing fields at Eton.
They are living witnesses of the grim
disparities which meet US in life, and
this fact viii add an eloquence and
weight 10 their words which IS not to
be denied.
It is the juxtaposition OF old tradition
and modern developments which pro-
duces the extraordinary dramatic in
terest CT the scene, the setting of Henry
the Eighth surrounding the Labor man
of today. And it is well that it is 50.
for there is undoubtedly an unconscious
impression made by the austere Vet
beautiful surroundings, eloquent of
those who viewed soIemnly the re-
sponsibilities of legislative life, which
will not be without influence on those
who, with the wider ideas of liberty
and the popular ideals which are now
so practically materializinH, are called

KAISER WR0TH AT MOROCCO

BERLIN, March 10.-Now that the
Morocco question may be considered
solved, it is the Kaiser's intention to at
tempt to strengthen Germany's position
by new alliances.
The Algeciras conference has shown
that Germany stands isolated. and that
the triple alliance is a thing of the past.
Italy has been won over by French di-
plomaey from an alliance which has, in
fact. never been popular in the country
What the Kaiser looks forward to now
is new triple alliance between Russia
Austria, and Germany. which would hold
the balance Of power in Europe, even II
Italy and Spain should enter into an
alliance with England and France.
The Kaiser is bitter at present against
his uncle. King Edward, who, more than
anybody else. frustrated his plans in
Morocco and who caused France to re-
main firm against the German demands
when the French government was about
TO give in rather than run the risk OF

War was really at 10 time imminent
although the German government tried
to make it appear as if the Kaiser was
ready TO fight rather than back down

The Emancipated Girl.

TWO peers have within the last week
married actresses, and to all who think
the question must arise why is it that
so many of the scions of great houses
seek their wives from behind the foot
lights. instead of in the social circles of
which they themselves form a part?
The answer I think is not very far to
seek. 1t certainly does not arise from
the fact that the women on the stage are
more beautiful, because in no society in
the world are there more beautiful girls
than in London, but the reason is that
the gulf which hitherto existed between
the girls of gentle birth and those who
come from another class, and who have
had to make their living on the stage
is fast closing in.
The young women of Society Of a past
day were brought up to understand that
there must be in dress. appearance and
manners, thought education. and wide
difference between them and those who
stood in the glare of the footlights, and
the young man who was to inherit an
old name and a family place could not
ordinarily imagine any other partner
than the refined. educated. gentle. if
perhaps somewhat uninteresting, woman
who was to be his consort and the moth
er of his children.
But now society has undergone a
transformation. the emancipated girl
has come TO stay. the young woman
who owns her own latch key, keeps her
own hours. has her own friends. prefers
pals" to a husband. plays bridge and
sives orders to her parents
IL is impossible to distinguish her from
the woman on the stage. except that
her bread-earning sister probably pre-
sents far ouieter appearance and often
far gentler in manner and more refined
In speech. but in every other resnect
they have come into open competition.

LONDON. March 10.-Woman has

afternoon, and the balloon. rising to q

speed Of thirty miles on hour. Before
long the coast of Dungeness was visi-

the airship that the aeronauts were
able to enjoy a good luncheon, but as
darkness came on the balloon rose to
an altitude of 1000 feet and snow he
