FRENCH ARE BECOMING GREAT
DRINKERS.
STEPS TAKEN TO CHECK IT
Officials viii Make Efforts to Save
Their Countrymen from Evil-Will
Produce Statistics to Show Re.
suits Of Alcoholism.

Paris, Feb 25-The rapidly in
creasing consumption of alcohol in
France is attracting the serious at
.tention of statesmen, who, following
the example of Belgian aud Swiss leg
islators, are deyoting earnest efforts
to restrict the spread of the evil. In
both chambers important groups have
been formed whose members are en-
.deavoring to secure the enforcement
of existing enactments and the pro
motion of fresh legislation with the
view of limiting the number of sa-
looms of strengthening the hands of
the authorities so as to improve their
supervision and eventually forbid the
sale of absinthe as being the most
deleterious of alcoholic liquors. 1t
Is argued that the enormous aug
mentation in the percentage of luna
tics among the populations of recent
years is for the most part due to
drink and that the habit is, be-
sides, having a general deteriorating
effect on the nation.
The senators taking part in the agi-
tation are headed by NJ. Charles Dupy
and the deputies are headed by NJ.
Dupot and these statesmen have oh.
tanned a statement from NJ. Clemen,
ceau that the cabinet will strongly
support the movement.
In the course of an interview with
the premier, deputation Of the two
groups secured u promise that a cir
cuar would be addressed to the may
ors OF the 10000 communes instruct
ing them to enforce more strictly the
law of January, 1873, which deals
with the punishment of drunkenness
An offender is thereby mulcted in
graduated penalties.
The deputation pointed out to NJ
Clemenceau that later enactment
passed in 1850, although it did not
4
Irepeal the act of 1873 was probably
the principal cause of the alarming
development of the drinking habit
This act permitted the indiscriminate
opening of saloons, the only restric
tion relating to hours OF business. It.
however, contained salutary proviso
giving the mayors power to limit the
number of saloons in the vicinity OF
schools and educational institutions
This clause, which has fallen into
desuetude except in n very few in
stances, is to be strictly applied in
future.
The premier promises to procure
statistics from all tho madhouses o
France of the number of Inmates
whose lunacy Is directly or indirectly
due to alcoholism and more particu
larly to the absorption of absinthe
These figures which are likely to b'
formidable are to be utilized in th'
course of the debates on the new
bills.

An Audubon Chautauqua is some.
thing new; something the town nor
county has ever had before. That we
could have one with success was to
our mind doubtful proposition. We
thou ght so because butfew othertowns
the size of ours had yet triedtheexperi-
ment and number of others with
twice the population had done so at
financial loss and a varying sue.
cess in a literary way.
LARGE EXPENSE.
To run Chautauqua for six days
involves u large expense in money, a
tremendous amount of work, and or.
dinarily whole lot OF grief. 1t is
true that some independent Chautau-
quas make some money: but more of
them lose. They are generally man
aged by men who begin with more
money than than experience; but they
end with more experience than money.
The Independent Chautauqua cannot
easily compete with those run by u
Bureau because they GO into the mar
ket and buy talent at retail, while the
Bureau buys it up at wholesale. And
we are assured by one of the mana
gers that the difference in the expense
| of the Audubon Chautauqua would
have amounted to five or six hundred
dollars. 1t seems to us that the Red
path Lyceum Bureau has solved the
problem of pu ting these entertain
ments before the people in the smaller
towns in a practical and successful
way. They have about thirty in Iowa
this year, and in only one of them
had there been Chautauqua before. In
| bringing such programs of music, pic
pictures and lectures to the doors OF
the people they are doing a greatwork
for the uplifting and betterment of hui
manity.
! GENTLEMEN IN CHARGE.
The gentlemen who came here to in
itiate and carry the Chautauqua TO a
successful conclusion are men whom
il is a pleasure to know because OF
their intelligence and character,

London Theatera Charm

One of the delicious treats London
offers Americans Is the acting and ac-
cessories Of her theaters. The Or
chestra stalls or balcony stalls are very
sumptuous and very roomy and are
evidently created on purpose to ap-
peal to hearty diners. The usher Is
very tidy young woman in black dress
and coQuettish cap and apron, pos
sessed of sweet face and still sweet
err voice. You pay her a siXpence for
each programme. The stage settings
are perfect in detail. Best Of all is the
elocution Of the players. From the
rising Of the curtain even unto the 60
ing down Of the same, each and every
word uttered is as clear and tuneful as
the tinkle of silver bell. You don't
have to wait till the middle Of the first
act before you can even guess what
the plot Is about Under these unusual
circumstances the interest one takes In
a play Is greatly enhanced, and he
wonders why an American company ID
not as we'll drilled.-Travel Magazine.

A cnrinua Wido,a,a Can.


A very curious cap forms the vivid
owls weeds" Of the Australia aborigine
in one part of the great island CONT
nent. Near the northeast bend Of the
Murray river 1t is the custom for wild
Ows to attend upon the tombs of their
departed lords. Then, after shaving
their heads, they cover them with pipe
clay, kneaded into paste. The head
is first covered with n net to prevent
the clay from sticking too tightly to
the skin--a misfortune which Is partly
averted by the amount Of grease with
which every Australian native is anoint-
ed. A layer of this clay several inches
In thickness is plastered over the head
and when dry forms a sort of skull
cap exactly fitting the head on which
1t was nodded. AS 1t weighs several
pounds, the widows cap cannot be
comfortable.
