Birds and Animals as Weather
Prophets.

An exchange says birds and animals
are often very trustworthy weather
prophets When crows are seen to glide
kite like, or tumble in somersaults toward
the earth, rnu I'll weather is certain to fol-
low within forty eight hours Again, when
they stay about the home pastures, perch
ing on low trees and hedgerows, return
ing to their roostiug places early in the
day with much clamoring, rain, and prob
ably wind, is imminent. Starlings also
congregate and join the rocks on such
occasions Woodpeckers often utter
their laughing cry, and peacecks their
hideous wall, before wet weather, but
neither of these signs is quite trust
worthy.
When robi S sing in low hedges or in
garden strawberries rain may be expected,
but when they sing perched at high alti-
tude it will generally be fine The high
flight of swallows ind Gates that it will be
fine, and vice versa. Owls, especially in
the winter, are usually silent before rain,
but in settled weather they boot exces
sively The beating of sheep on winter
evenings or at night is nearly always fol-
lowed by severe weather. Shepherds
contend that when sheep become frolic-
some and butt one another there is q
storm coming The appearance OF many
earthworms is also sign of rain.
1t is currently reported here that the
tax rate for this year will be increased to
about SO cents on the 500. The rate is
now 80 cents This increase, it is stated,
is made necessary as the result of the
large amount of money spent last year by
the county road commissioners. The
county commissioners have completed
the assessment books, and will announce
the tax tate on March Goth.

Monks Denied a License.
When the law suppressing the religious
orders went into effect two years ago the
Carthusian friars decided to remain in the
country. making a formal application as
required and promising submission to it's
provisions. Their commercial interests and
other holdings Of real estate were too val
liable to sacrifice. Their property was
worth many millions Of francs and their
half dollars year. The authorities re-
fused them the ordinary license. On what
grounds 1t does not appear 1t was an ar
bitrary refusal. The Carthusians then APP
peaIed to the chamber of deputies. which
also voted against them. They went to the
courts, which sustained the government.
Then, after a fruttless struggle for year,
they closed their factory, took their brandy,
their herbs and machinery and crossed the
border to another old Carthusian monas-
terry at Tarragone. Spain. where they set
up their plant and are now making the
liquor as usual.
The monastery, the vineyards and other
lands used by the monks at Grand Char
treuse nominaliy belong to the government
the revolution in 1888. After the restora-
ton of the empire the Carthusians were al
lowed to return and resume business at the
old stand, but for some reason or another
the title to the property was never restored
to them, and has remained nominally with
the French government for a century.
Therefore, from legal point of view, the
republic. being the heir OF the empire. was
simply claiming its own when it took pos
session of the monastery. and the monks
are not resisting that proceeding.
Trademark Sold
But the government sold their equipment
their vineyards, their good will, their bot
ties. their trademark and other property of
great value at auction for 100000 francs to
La Compagnie Fermier de la Grand Char
treuse Of Paris, which has taken posses
sion of the monastery and is carrying on
the business with the same machinery, the
same employees and the same herbs from
the same garden. 1t is selling the liqueur
same labels and similar wrappers to those
used for centuries by the Carthusians. The
only difference is that the new company
cannot get old brandy and in that respect
their product Is inferior to that offered
by the monks. In other respects it IL the
same, because the experienced employees
have nearly all remained at Grand Char
treuse and are serving the new company
as they served the monks
The government Of France protects the
Fermier company in this proceeding, and
the monks have gone into the courts to
prevent what they consider a violation of
their lawful rights and to recover appropri-
ate damages for infringement of their
trademark. They base their application for
an injunction upon the ground that while
the government OF France may have the
legal authority to expel them from it's ter
ritory and confiscate the property they have
occupied for three hundred years, 1t has no
title to, or control over their trademark.

PARIS. September 16, 1906
A series of law suits have been COM
menced by the Carthusian religious order
Of the Roman Catholic Church in a dozen
different countries to protect their market
for Chartreuse, the liquor which bears their
name and of which they have enjoyed a
monopoly for 800 years One of the suits
Is pending in New York, where they have
applied to the United States district court
for injunction to prohibit the Com
pagnie Fermier from using the name, trade
mark and distinctive pattern of bottles
which the monks have always used. Tes-
timony is being taken in Paris before Con-
sui General Mason. Eugene Kelly. the
American lawyer, appears for the French
government, which is not nOminally a party
to the suit, but is vitality interested in the
litigation because the Fermier company is
operating with its authority. The trouble
grows out of the suppression of the re-
ligious orders in France and involves the
legality of the confiscation Of monastc
property, not only that of the Carthusians,
but Of all the %, 900 monks and nuns that

Street Names In the Pavement.

Several of the cities of France and Italy
have adopted a new wrinkle which is Of
fered as a suggestion to the municipal au-
thorities of the United States. The names
of the streets have been placed in the
pavement at each corner, so that pedes-
TRANS may look down instead Of up to see
where they are going. In some cases
brass letters have been fmbeded in con-
crete asphaltum sidewalks. in other
places the words have been formed by or
namental bricks. and the names have some
times been painted upon the pavement. 1t
Is new idea. and will answer very well
for those who walk. but of course such
guides are entirely useless for people in
carriages and would not do at all in coun-
tries where there is heavy snowfall in
the winter.
Paris is labeled better than any other
streets, in white letters upon blue enam-
eled tiles, are placed at every corner and
sometimes midway in the blocks. The num-
Der of every house is placed also upon
tile plaque on either side of the entrance
where it can be distinctly seen. If there Is
a yard in front of the house the plaque is
placed upon the gateway.
Revolutionary Humor.
The revolutionists at Warsaw are not
without sense of humor. An interesting
story is told of grim joke they played
upon the governor general Count Skalon,
and his chief Of staff. General Jatscheff
ski. Not long ago both of these gentle
men received notes written in fashionable
hand on scented paper and signed by the
name of a woman. The writer requested
General Skalon, as a very great favor to
hand the inclosed envelope to his chief of
staff explaining that she feared, IL sent
direct, it might fall into the hands of his
wife OF some other lady member of his
household and cause him unnecessary en-
barrassment. The governor suspecting an
intrigue, for his aid, like himself, was
handy man with women, passed the note
across the desk with a jest. General Jats-
cheffski threw 1t to one side until he could
dispose of more important communications,
and a moment later was perplexed as well
as amused to find addressed to himself an
exact duplicate of the letter, which his
chief had just given him, requesting him
to hand the inclosed note to General Ska
Ion. He passed the Enclosure over the
table and both were opened at the same
time. Each contained sentence Of death
pronounced upon the recipient by the terror
ists They were identical In every respect
except the name.
Within a few days the sentences were
executed. General Katscheffski was as
sassinated and General Skalon was blown
half to pieces by. g bomb. although he IL
likely to recover.

Ingenuity Of Smugg1ers.


In the Hotel de Vile ehe city halD OF
Paris is a curious collection of articles
showing the ingenuity of smugglers who
have tried to bring wine. liquors, kerosene
and other articles into the city without the
payment of the duties imposed by the &C.
troll laws. Every city in France, and in
many Of the other European countries,
have a system of local taxation by which
money is raised for municipal purposes.
Every chicken. every egg, every cabbage
brought into market must pay duty. 1t
is only tri1e. but 1t is collected with as
much vigilance as If 1t amounted to thou
sands Of pounds, and the total makes a
large figure. To evade these duties is the
ambition of every farmer and huckster, and
they resort to very ingenious devices. In
order to instruct the customs inspectors
concerning the tricks they are to look out
for the museum at the Hotel de Vile has
been eSta blished, and 1t is we'll worth a
visit.
The duties on kerosene oil. wines, brandy
and other liquors are higher than upon
other articles, hence more thought and
trouble are taken to smuggle them through
the gates. This has been done by women
wearing false busts. hips and calves made
of tin. and filled with liquors. Several NOR
tuary wreaths made of tin and holding a
gallon or two Of wine have been captured.
but the most ingenious and expensive de-
vice is carriage. with tanks under the
coachman's box. under the seats and under
the bottom capable of storing a barrel or
more of liquor. This carriage belonged to
a firm of liquor dealers and was built for
this express purpose. One of the partners
lives in the country. and for years was In
the habit of driving back and forth every
day. the tanks filed with wines and liquors,
until accident disclosed the trick to the
octroi inspector.

"Sick" Pearls.

Everybody has doubtless heard that
pearls will die of neglect. Experts tell US
that they must be worn handled to pre-
serve their luster. and the more they are
used the better they look. This theory has
been illustrated in a striking manner by a
necklace valued at many thousands Of dol
lars, which was presented to the Louvre
Museum a quarter of century ago by
Nine. Theirs. wife of the famous states
man who at one time was president OF the
French republic. The necklace consists OF
145 perfect pearls, graded with Unusual
regularity. 1t has been regarded as a mod
ell of artistic selection as well perfec-
ton and for twenty-five years has been
admired by visitors to that greatest of all
museums. Recently 1t was observed that
the jewels were losing their luster. Experts
were called in. After a careful investiga-
ton they decided that they were dying and
could prescribe no cure. 1t is believed
that in addition to neglect, for they haven't
been handled for twenty-five years. the
Jewels have also suffered from strong
continuous light thrown upon the case in
which they lay. It Is also believed that
the dye in the red velvet case in which
they are displayed has had an injurious
effect upon them.
The sick necklace has been removed from
exhibition and sent to hospital, as you
might say. where 1t Is to receive scientific
treatment in the hope of staying the dis
ease and saving its life.
