The Emblem of France.

The origin of the fleur-de-lis is still an unsettled question. There are many theories. but no two of them agree. One makes the emblem originate with Clovis |. andother with Louis VII, an other with one of the German kings of the twelfth century and still an other with the Romans. All that is definitely settled is the fact that since the twelfth century the fieur-de-lis has been employed as the emblem of French royalty. The nature of the emblem is also in dispute. An old tradition makes it the representation of the lily given by the angel to Clovis at his baptism. Another theory IS that it was adopted by Louis VII ill allusiOn to his name, Louis Florus New York American.

The Agent Did Not Wish to Spoil
Her Unexpected Reception.

"She said you would know-that you
were expecting her" Mary replied,
Very well, will be down at once, y
Mrs. Armes answered. She put the last
touches TO her pretty afternoon gown
and went slowly downstairs, trying to
recall any possible forgotten Miss Eos
ter. At the parlor door she stopped,
1t was an agent-the snowy dress, the
exaggerated appearance Of ease, the
sharp, searching glance all betrayed 1t {;
an agent, moreover Of the type she
most disliked and who had lied TO her.
Involuntarily her face grew stern, but
before she could speak the woman an

to get Mt you. l don't suppose III

For moment the two women. the
gentle, dellcately cared for one and the
bitter daughter Of toll, looked Mt each

callers. and lighted her alcohol lamp.

what you have to show" she said, 'but
at least I want to give you cup Of
tea before you go out in the cold

The young woman stared, started to
say something and apparently changed
her mind. She answered only In mono
syllables to Mrs. Armes' attempts at
conversation, and accepted the tea and
little cakes without a word Of thanks.
But when, the teacup and plate both
emptied, Mrs. Armes said, brightly
"And now, suppose we talk business"

drew on her gloves, and then rose.

KILLED RARE ANIMALS IN TIBET
Mason Mitchell Sends Specimens to
the National History Museum.

Mason Mitchell, actor, rough rider
and friend Of President Roosevelt, has
added to his achievements by exploring
Tibet and killing animals which few
white men have slain, says the New
York Herald.
Those who doubt that there are tax
ms, gorals, sorrows and blue bears will
absolve Mr.. Mitchell from even a sus-
piclon Of nature taking by going to tn,
American Museum Of Natural History
and looking at the skins, skulls and
horns which have just been received
from Mr.. Mitchell As a consul IN the
Chinese city of Chungking he was nos
far from the Tibetan border.
Mr.. Mitchell accompanied his gifts
with scientific data and is sending pho
tographs showing what the animals
looked like in life
Takins resemble antelopes. but are
much larger, full-grown specimen

ties. The serow Is rare. It Is some

betan blue bear and clouded leopard
sent by Mr.. Mitchell are excellent spe-
clmens.
The consul also killed several birds
above the clouds. and he writes from
Tachingu that when he gets n chance
to consult n natural history he will try
to Identify them. If they are slightly
known to naturalists he will add them
to the collections in the museum.
Mr.. Mitchell has also given to the
museum scrolls once owned by band
Of Iibetan priests, who lost them in
fighting a punitive expedition sent
against them by the French. The
scrolls arc covered with allegorcal fig
ures and are written In Sanscrlt They
are apparently centuries old.

NAVAL OFFICERS REGARD LONG
CRUISE AS REVELATION OF
THEIR EFFICIENCY.

HAD DOUBT FOR EXTENDED TRIP.

Paris, March l4.-News of the de-
cision to send the American battleShip
fleet back to the Atlantic coast by way
Of Australia and the Sue canal is re-
ccived here as a crowuiug relevation Of
the efficiency of the American navy.
The statement that the cruise is To be
extended in this manner has opened the
eyes of the French republic which had
been led to believe that the American
navy was a good deal of Il bluff" that
the cruise around South America would
demonstrate the incapacltv of the vessels
and that if it was accomplished the ships
would be ready for the scrap heap.
Even in French naval circles. the he
lief was that the long voyage would de-
vcop structural weaknesses in the vrs-
sells themselves, or at least serious
break down in the engine rooms. In
view of these opinions the announcement
that the fleet arrived at Magdalcna bay
ahead Of her schedule ready for target
practice and in better condition than
when it sailed from Hampton Roads in
December, has created all the more
