PUTS LIMIT ON CHAMPAGNE
French Council Of State Proscribe'
Districts Bearing the Name.
SERIOUS QUESTION IN ETHICS
Is IL Right to Kill u Man
who IL HOpeIessIy Doomed to
Die n Horrible
Deathf

PARIS, Jan. A.-The Council OF State has
issued a decree limiting the name cham
payne to wines grown and manufactured
in certain districts. These districts are prac-
tically all the Department of Marine and
the south half of the Department Of Aisne.
AS the departments Immediately south of
Marine, Aube and Yonne. also formed part
of the old province called Champagne, the
wine growers there are naturally aggrieved
at not being able to call their product
champagne and are hoping to have the
decree amended to include them. One of
the leading dealers in champagne, on being
asked his opinion Of the decree, said:
ut will not affect in any way the in
terests Of the great brands or the honest
in champagne. That abuses
should grow up by the side of this honest
and prosperous trade was inevitable. and
T. is against these abuses that the limita-
ton. now legal instead Of remaining moral,
will react.
by including the arrondessiment OF
Chateau-Thierry, the council OF state evil
IDENTIFY wished to give satisfaction to the
legitimate demands of houses which make
champagne at moderate prices, but the
great vineyards are all found in Marine,
the true and only cradle of the champagne
vine. do not see exactly what Scissors
is doing within the limits; it is better
known for its beans"
why do you think public taste favors
dry wines so much nowadays?"
'In my opinion the chief reason is that
champagne is no longer what It used TO be,
exclusively a wine for dessert. The fash
ion of serving champagne from the be-
ginning Of a meal comes to US from Eng
lard and then from America.
Logically tina trus lovers OF champagne
should begin a meal with a very dry
wine and finish 1t with a very sweet one.
Connoisseurs think most Of the vintages
of 1889, 1882, 1898, 1899 and 1900. most Of
which are now exhausted; they are now
selecting the 1904 %growths, which are just
ready and of which they ought to buy a
stock"

Brute Strength Wins.

J~iu-jitsu and brute strength met last Sat
urday night in Paris. but as the exponent
Of the former, a FIenchman, Regnier,
weighed only 1876 pounds, while his oppo-
nent, a Cossack Russian, Paboudny,
weighed Isl, and their heights were almost
as much in ~disproportion, the result can
hardly be taken as definitive. II only re-
quired three minute two seconds and Reg
nier, with his foot twisted till it nearly
broke, had given in.
Yet Regnier, who is the French cham
pion at j~iu-Jitsu, was the ~favorite before
the match despite the disparity between
the two men. Padoubny was allowed any
hold by the regulations and 1t was by a
~Jiu-jitsu hold he made Regnler surrender.
Regnier tried several times to fix a hold
on his massive opponent, but it seemed
to give Padoubny no trouble TO shake him
off. Both men were naked to the waist.
which is not in accordance with |jlu-Jitsu
wrestling.
The encounter. however. proves nothing.
J~iu-jitsu is not a sport and should not be
made the object OF matches. 1t is an ex-
ercise or a mode of defense, but nothinz
more.

Question I'm Ethics.

The recent railway accident In a TUNE
near Brive in France, where after a col
lision a train took fire, gave rise to a ques-
ton of conscience often debated, whether
a man has the right to put another man
out of his misery when 1t is impossible to
save HIS life.
DR.. Bosredon, one OF the first medical
men to reach the scene OF the accident
says: After a thousand difficulties I
reached the place where. the engine and
tender had been thrown into a position
like a v and 1 saw the fireman, Lefort,
with his legs caught under the firebox,
his head and the upper part of his body
alone being free. TIE unhappy man, who
was quite conscious. begged me with heart
rending cries to get him out or else to
put him to death and deliver him from the
terrible torture he was enduring. for his
lower part was being burned as we'll as
crushed.
After a hopeless attempt to extricate
him. / said a few words to cheer him and
went for help. One of the company's
engineers returned with me and said It
was quite impossible to get him out. All
the time Lefort, who clearly and stolcally
understood his position, kept repeating:
XIII me! Don't let me suffer like this!
l am burning alive! XIII me! Kill mel"
AT this moment one OF the gendarmes
came up and l asked him IL he had his
revolver. He said he had not. 1t was no
time to debate; immediate death was the
only remedy. and / should not have hest
tated to use the gendarme's revolver, and
/ do not think my conscience as a man
or as a doctor would have ever reproached
me. Unfortunately We had to leave the
unhappy man TO his fate"
