 An automobile race from Paris to Pe- kin is shortly to take place. The sug- gestion of such a thing a few years ago would have been received with ridicule, bus in this year of progress, 1907, it has been seriously proposed by the lead ing Paris paper, Le Matin, which has challenged the automobile industry. The challenge was immediately taken up by two Paris firms, and 1t Is expected that other entries will soon follow. All that there Is now to do is to make the at tempt It Is expected that the matter will De taken up by the Automobile Tour
 inG club. The interest in such an event will be enormous. The task of crossing over such a vast territory-the northwest of Europe to the far east-over road W .ich though they may be described on the map, may be only hypothetical. and the coming into contact with so many different nations and peoples, the diffi- cudtes of language, will be no light one.
 M Fallieres the President of the Re pu Jiie, has just opened a temporary ex- hibitior of pictures presented to the French nation by M, Euenne Moreau- Nelaton. which constitute the artistic his tory of the French nation during the nineteenth century. The collection of 100 engravings and 100 paintings was be- gun by M. Moreau-Neaton' grandfather, an enlighted patron of the French arts. He formed the finest collection of the two Ft tench masters, Delacroix and Des- champs. and the present donor has added some of the best of the works of Dela- croiX to the collection. Besides there pictures there are thirty-seven works by Corot, some of them only sketches, it is true, but together constituting practi- cally the artistic career of the great land scape painter. Other artists represented in the collection are Troyon, Daubigny

Ebert Hubbard in the Philistine.
 XXT HAT has become of Colonel Will w liam Dalton Mann?
 Six months ago the Sunday Sewer had his picture on the front page and gave columns to his crimes, trying to kill him with sewer gas.
 One famous cigarettst said he would never rest until the Colonel was in Sing Sing. his white whiskers shaved clean and his martial form covered with a bag gy suit of prison grey, because, forsooth, the Colonel had sworn it happened on the Tuesda' when bigod it was on the Thursda'.
 Justice
 For weeks the newspaper pack hunted, hooted. jibed jeered, reviled and spit upon Colonel Mann.
 It made one think of the good old days fin England when naked women were whipped through the streets at the carts tail. What were these women guilty of? No one knew Did the mob that peted them with the mud know them? Not at all-the mob spirit was rampant, that was all.
 And so the mob spirit occasionally breaks out WllH us yet ana mas us eX- pression of brutality in the newspapers. That is why l refer to the average daily paper a sewer-do you see the applca- tion? And in this sense it may be a ne- cessity We have refined our beastialiay to a point where we merely relish reve- ing in it in print; we roll it a sweet morsel under our tongues, and toss 1t bac kand forth over the teacups.
 Newspapers are business ventures, and newspaper editors are just a very little worse than newspaper readers. The newspaper owners are panderers to the mob spirit. they do in cold blood what the reader does unconsciously. Editors and writers differ from owners because they frankly admit, out of office hours, tn erottenness of the product, but they have to live, even if James McNeil Whistler couldn't see the necessity.
 Not one reader in a million dare affront Colonel Mann if they met face to face, but we enjoy seeing the editor, hiding be- hind anonymity, vent his rheum upon him in print.
 The owner of an average daily newspa- per is a direct descendant of the imperti- nent thief the most prepotent man in history A private character is no more to a newspaper manager than were the feelings of the naked woman at the carts tail to the London mob nor the anguish of Hester Prypne with the scarlet letter

 Copyright, 1907, by W. R. Hearst.) D ARIS, February 23.-ln full view of H a number of experts, a photograph of President Fallieres was dis patched from here to Lyons and back-a distance of GAO miles-the other day by telephctography.
 The occasion was a lecture given by Professor Korn of Munich, the inventor of telephotography, or the method of sending photographs by wire. This meth cd, which will undoubtedly gain for the professor the undying hatred of the crim- in1l fraternity, is destined to revolution ize Illustrated journalism.
 In the course of his remarks the pro- lessor said that the method of trans hitting photographs by telegraphy was as yet in its infancy. but still, in spite of this, it had now reached a practical stage and he did not see why 1t should not be adopted by enterprsing news papers.
 He went on to say that the distance which the picture of President Fallieres had just travelled did not represent any thing like the limit of his invention. An extra few hundred miles would make no difference at al, and ne confidently ex- pected to see the time when the old world would be able to keep in even closer touch with the new, when pictures sent from America would reach here as quickly as a message by wireless tele- graphy.
