London. oct 2.-AnOther expedition against

northwest frontier Of India. with strong prob
ability Of the extension Of che operations into
CabOol. is regarded as almost certainty Of the
near future by those close in touch with the
Indian government. The unrest In these regions
is pronounced. Small British posts have been
subjected to raids for months past, and political
and military officers have been killed by the
fanatical trlbesmen.
Those conversant with the situation are salts
fed that the agitation is being engineered from
Afghanistan. Arms and ammunition are reach
ing the tribesmen in alarming quantities from
across the Afghan frontier. Mazrullah Khan

VIGOROUSLY anti British. is becoming increasing
Iy powerful at CaboOl. and in India he Is re-
garded as a constant menace 20 peace. MAJ

in no way dampened by the defeats they suffered
at the hands of the last British expedition. are
being wrought up by a fanatical Mulah named

consult with Mazrullah Khan.
The British government admits fully the Sc
robustness of the situation For months past II

This proposal is being discussed editoriauy and

So valuable is the receipt Of tips regarded that

younger school of critics. and In fact the ma

just such masses OF the people watched
yesterdays procession, whose sympathies and
emotions will always be reused by the broad
humor. the melting tenderness and the vivid
character drawing OF "N6tre Dame" and Les
Miserables" Hugo's poems. however including
La Legende des Siecles.' have for years past
had little sale In this country: his plays fail to
attract large audiences. and his patriotic, social
and political ideals. revolutionary as they once
seemed, are old-fashioned when compared with
the modern anti-militarism of Herve and the
collectivisim of Jules Guesde
The French character has become. since the
disasters of 1870. less easily Influenced by
rhetoric and eloquence than 1t used TO be. Then

cOnte de Lisle, who denounced Hugo for making
the synbolists. headed by Mallarme, who held
that real poetry can be only vaguely suggested
by mysterious collocations of syllables. ire
spective of meaning or syntax, and of Verlaine.
who wrote that the first principle of the art of
poetry was to wiring the neck of eIoquence, have
much contributed to lessen Hugonian vogue in
literary circles. Parnassian and symbolist
schools, however have also had their day. and
there is a certain tendency now noticeable 10
give Hugo at least his due. though whether the
Hugonian cult, 70 which Swinburne In England
and Henri ROchefort in France have ever re-
manned faithful. can be revived is extremely
doubtful. c. !. B.
