Driving Out French Words.

New 1Ork Times.
 The manner in which the Kaiser is driving all French words out of Al sace and Lorraine while German words are becoming chic In Paris Is illustrat- ed by the following;
 "IF Durant or Dupont or a Martin announces a beer of his own make mo- body will taste It." says the Petit Journal. although we have many ex- cellent beers n France. but if he ad- vertises Durandbrau or Martinbrau or Dupontbau his fortune Is made
 Tn the meantime the government at Berlin continues to make war on French customs and words in alsace and Lorraine. The 'coiffeur' has be- come a 'Friseur.' A 'resturant' has be- come a 'restauration Modiste' is transferred into 'Modistin,' and con cierge into Portier.' Concert becomes 'Konzert' and cafe kafe' The war against foreign words has gone so far that a policeman objected to the Eng fish word 'overcoat' which he saw in a window in Strassburg.
 "Of course. the menu has been thor. oughly expurgated 'Soupe a la Tor tue has become Schildkrotensuppe : which means 'toadsoup.' 'potaEe a la cremee dorge' Is now 'Schleimsuppe. which means 'slimy soup and cham pigeon has been supplimented by the word 'Pilz.' which means tumor as well as mushroom. When you pick up the menu in the morning Pilzomelette' would look rather repulsive~"

Gold Brick swindIe.

The criminal investigation depart ment at Scotland Yard has issued an- other warning against the gold brick swindle."
 Scotland Yard. describing the fraud in its warning. says the scheme ''us- ually begins with a letter addressed to some person of property and lately deceased so that the letter may fan into the hands of the executors, ex- pressing gratitude for past kindnesses and stating that the writer has made a valuable discovery of gold and de- sire to share his good fortune with his benefactor.
 This leads to a correspondence be- tween the swindlers and the relatives or executors of the deceased and ul- timately, if the story is believed, to The despatch of a messenger, usually to America, to receive the bullion found. When this stage is reached, a demand for money Is on some pretext or other sprung upon the victim who, in the end, is generally fleeced to a very considerable amount by the production of what appears to be bars or bricks of solid gold. ''
 Recently a number of cases in this ingenious fraud have been known of which the following are a selection:
 A widow was about to leave for America with $20,000 to develop the mine, but her bankers succeeded in stopping her.
 Executors of Portsmouth man were communicated with by ID. c. Hay man. of New York. but they kept clear of the fraud.

Paris. Aug. 22.-War between Ger many and France was averted by the coolh eadness of French and German army officers in a dramatic frontier episode which is reported from Lunes- vIlle.
 Two German army corps are en- gagged in nlanoeuvres near the border and yesterday morning a battalion of French rifles marching out from Ram bersvillers approached within fifty yards of the frontier and suddenly found itself face to face with Ger man regiment which was drawn up at an equal distance on the other side.
 The troops stood looking at each other for a moment without uttering word or giving vent to an explana- ton and then their respective com manders simultaneously ordered them to face round and they were soon at a prudent distance from each other
 A fine illustration of military disci- pline was given on both sides as a cry might have been the signal for ser ious trouble

 Mosquitoes in London.
 Bananas are thought to be responsi- ble for the invasion of mosquitoes which have made life in London ufi- bearable during the last two weeks and caused the inhabitants to serious ly discuss the use of mosquito netting and screens such as are used in trop- ical countries.
 The eggs of the mosquito are said to be imported by the banana and to have been matched out during the re- cent warm weather.
 Caipham mothers have already learned that common bluetng Is good remedy for mosquito bites and many of them send their children out with blue bags for use as soon as the bite is felt.
 Tn several cases 1t is stated that children with delicate skin have suf- fered severely; large wellings being raised by the bites
 An Electrical Target.
 A new recording electrical target has just been perfected by an Aus tralian engineer. Sydney Rose The failing of the targets at present used is that bullets which strike large areas of the target are all recorded alike so that the records can only be approximate.
 The new target gives an electric record of the exact spot of which the bullet hits 1t. The target Is only used once and is then wound up on a roll As the punctured paper passes over a set of electric fingers a contact Is made through the hole which imme- dIately causes the recorder to show where the puneture is located
 Another target says the Electrical Review has been perfected by the same engineer for recording any num- her of shots on a six-foot target used for volley practice or rapid firing.

Tragedy at Pavia.


 The inheritance of a large legacy by a household in straitened circum- stances has been the cause of a ter rtble tragedy at Pavia.
 Giuseppe Alberellf. q bookbinder aged twenty-five years. had been en- gagged to Nina Titoni and they were to have been married in the autumn. The girls parents fully approved of the match and were pleased that their daughter should be provided for.
 Some time ago, however, the father inherited large property from a dis tant relative and he and his wife at once made up their minds that their daughter should make a marriage ac- cording to her fortune.
 The girl was ordered to break of the engagement but refused to do SO. Her father thereupon wrote to the young man saying that his daughter had begged him to tell the truth that she no longer loved him.
 Yesterday Alberelli found her in the garden with the mother and drawing a revolver fired. killing the girl. He then shot himself through the heart.

CANT STAND Qu|ETuDE
st. Louis Boilermaker So Accustomed
to Noise That Absence of It
Mentally UnbaIances Him.

East st. Louis. Aug. 27-The prob
able climax to the strange case OF
Robert Caulerfield, boilermaker, who
is suffering from clamor mania, a
passion for noise, came when he swal-
lowed two ounces of iodoform in the
city Jail at Bellville, where he had
been taken following a desperate
struggle with a policeman on street
car. Caulefield is now in the county
hospital. His chances for recovery are
slight.
Monday night the boilermaker was
found near the Broadway viaduct un-
conscious. He was taken to st. Mary's
hospital. The quietness of the place
caused him to rave necessarily and
1t was decided to take him to the
county farm at Bellville.
Handcuffed and in charge of a DO.
hceman, Caulefield was placed on a
suburban street car. AS soon as the
car entered the quiet country district
he became violent and attacked the
policeman. In the car, filled with pas
sengers, the two men battled on the
floor. During the struggle the hand.
cuffs broke and Caulefield beat the
officer over the head with them. After
FIFTEEN minutes the policeman overcame
the clamor-maniac and landed him in
JAIL. Five minutes after he was locked
up Caulefield swallowed iodoform.
