far as IL goes. implies that in Paris

may with IMMUNITY be made the VIC
Tins Of homicidal attempts.
When we recall the circumstances
under which the assassination WIS at

ton Of which II must have struck his
body. Gregori did not pretend. as we
have said that Dreyfos had given
him any direct provocation. but he
believed him to have been Improperly
absolyed by the Court OF Cessation.
and he desired. he said. to protest
against the indignity to which the
necessity OF taking part In the gior,-
fiction Of lola had subjected the
French army. In other words, the
would-be assassin arrOgated the right
OF substituting his own judgment for

such views Of individual superiority

the less Paris jury has proclaimed tie
position which he took.
How is the occurrence of such a
phenomenon in an enlightened coun-
try to be explained? The only pos
sible explanation Is the startling one
that the fierce animosity which ten
years ago split France into two camps
and threatened at one time to cause
a fatal collision between the standing
army and the civil power is far from
having died away. Manifestly. too,
the enti- Semitic feeling In France,
which for time seemed to have been

In culling out the old fowls, if they
are not punch marked, it is sometimes
difficult-to tell the age of fowl from
its appearance, says Denver Field and
Farm The head is the best indica-
ton Of age. The underbill of an old
hen is so stiff thatait cannot be bent,
and the comb is thick and rough. In
a young hen the underbill is soft and
the comb thin and smooth. If hens
spurs are hard and the scales on the
legs rough she is old. A young hen
has only the rudiments of spurs; the
scales on the legs are smooth, glossy
and fresh colored, the claws tender
and short and the nails sharp.
