PERE-LA-CHAISE.

Fameus Resting Place of the Great
Dead of France.
In the center of the most populous
and hardest working part Of Paris lies
Pere-la- Chaise. the city of the dead.
All fetes OF the faubourg beat against
the walls Of this spot, which has Its
own fete twice year Within less than
century this cemetery has become
the abode of at least $4,000 dead. It
formerly formed a part of the domains
of the bishopric of Paris under the
name Champ Leveque Under Louis
XIV. It was known at Mont Louis. At
last. May 81, 1904, the Official opening
Of the new metropolis took place.
The white mausoleums among the
green trees remind the visitor Of an
oriental city, but it Is estimated that in
twenty years there will not be space
enough for one lone dead man. A cal
culation has been made which would
point to the fact that the sum Of $780,
100000 Is represented In these last
sleeping places of man. Even though
the French may not always be grateful
during the life of their illustrIous chill
dren. there is a mighty attempt after
death to prove appreciation. Among
the famous men who are today lying
calm and beloved in Pere- la Chaise are
Rossini, Bellini, Chopin, members of
the famous Carnot family, Moliere, La
Fontaine, Delacroix and Balzac.
Here the tomb of Heloise and Abe
lard is visited continually by large num-
beers Of pilgrims. and there Is never an
end to the sentiment around the Gothic
monument rising from the bright hued
geraniums and roses. Notwithstanding
the iron railing, many a lover carries
from the hallowed spot a petal blown
across by the obliging breeze. Except
for one section. where considerable
number Of artists and authors, brothers
in beauty and inspiration, are grouped,
the tombs succeed each other without
much order. There is a single monu-
ment erected by the state to the SOL
oilers killed in the siege of Paris.

A Quaint Epitaph.

The following epitaph is copied from
tombstone In Brandon, Vt, marking
the grave Of a child who died at the
age Of a few days:
Sweet maid. she glanced into our world
to see
A sample OF our misery.
She turned away her languid eye
To drop tear or two and sigh.
Sweet maid. she tasted OF life's bitter
cup,
Refused to drink her portion up
She turned her little head aside,
Disguised with the taste, and died.

self with the notion that he was in
love. Men always grew distracted
and monosyllabic when they were in
love. Like any wise person, he want

thing to her. She eyed him with a
sympathy warranted to drive an angel
to desperation.
Still Clarence spoke not. When bv
accident she discovered that he had
been at Wildens' alone on one Of the
evenings he had told her he had an
engagement she began to plan his
house furnishings and to pick out her
wedding present, not knowing that he
had merely stopped into return a book
and then had promptly departed. She
began 20 let down the nervous tension
and smilingly survey a triumph like
good general.
One night in that same week. while
she waited for Clarence to come home
to dinner, she got a telegram from
him. 1t said that he had married Jeu-
ME Phillips that afternoon and they
had started on their wedding trip. It
was laconic, as was Clarence's wont.
Jennie Phillips has always stood to
Mrs. Falworth for the quintessence of
everything she didn't want Clarence's
wife to be, SO she is taking it hard.
AS for Grace, she says perhaps it
was just as well as, if not better, than

crate preparations were made for the
festivities.
Were the Dakota on the way home
from Japan the situation would be re
versed, and there would be two Christ
mas days aboard the ship, or, rather, one
Christmas day fOrty-eight hours long, as
the day line is generous enough about
paying back its debts to those who do not
remain in the Orient. 1t is a kind of
head tax he assesses, redeemable on de-
mand if the face is in the right direction.
This day line seems mystifying to
many persons who observe its meander-
ings over the Pacific ocean on the map.
Beginning away back up in the Arctic
wastes, it follows the 1S0th degree south
for some distance, and then bends to go
through Behring Strait. Thence it moves
in an irregular line down almost to the
Equator, and bends east to the 15Oth
meridian. Then its crooked pathway may
be traced through the Southern Pacific
until it finally gets back to the 1S0th
meridian and disappears in the unknown
region east of Wilkes Land.

uprising"
The council recognized that the at
tempt of an immediate uprising could
not succeed in the capital, but while
making preparations it would be neces-
sary to undertake a sort of guerrilla war
fare, consisting of the disarming of police
and soldiers wherever they are found
alone in the streets, the use of bombs
from ambush and other acts of terror.
The council drew up a proclamation
to the Cossacks warning them that if
they continued to fight against the peo-
pie they would be treated like mad dogs
and if they desired to be treated like
brothers they should remain in their bar
racks. An appeal was also drawn up re-
questing the proletaIiat of all countries
