who arrived Tuesday night, had their

French papers, like the English. occa
sionally assume that girls are chosen for
beauty. Hence they are making com
parisons with French girls not at all
complimentary to the girls from Amer
lea. The girls don't seem to mind It
because they have been described by
French papers as ''bevy OF American
banties."
There was crowd of between 1000
and 1900 excited men and women wait
ing for their appearance at the Hotel Du
Louvre, nor was it pelicte or re-
spectful mob. They passed open judg-
ment on the young women, favorable or
unfavorable, according to fancy.
Everywhere the Kentuckians turned
they found kodaks leyelled at them.

smugglei away in special train on the
Baltimore and Clio. With two constab,es
to Elkins, his fcrmer abode.
Rossett's deportation was arranged in
secrecy and was not generally known
when he had left that town. Rossett's
removal was by order OF Governor Daw-
son. On grassy plot at the rear of the
B. & @. station, with ropes stretched
about to keep back the people, Rossett
spent his time while here sleeping and
talking with those who ventured near.
He did not seem to mind the eireum-

this city and claimed the ParkeTsburg
people gave him better treatment than
he received elsewhere. The district at
torney's office sent telegram to Leslie
N. Shaw, Secretary of the Treasury,
asking that the state take charge of
Rossett and have him removed to North
Brothers Island, n. Y, but no answer
was received. A box car was sidetracS-
