Franklin MacVeagh Presides.

At the conclusion Of his address he in
troduced Franklin MacVeagh. Secretary
Of the Treasury, as the presiding officer.
Secretary MacVeagh declared that the
movement along the line of looking for
ward in planning for cities was an excel
lent sign.
I'VE do have certain progress without
much planning" he said. Conditions in
the cities have certainly improved. But
we see the benefit of city planning when
we look around Washington. Progress in
city development must come through
planning"
The first speaker was Frederick Law
Oimsted of Brookline, Mass, he discuss
ing at length 'The Scope and Results of
City Planning Abroad"
Conscious and organized public effort
at town planning, he said. seems ordina-
rally to begin by the effort to control
the layout Of new streets created by pri-
vate initiative as to accomplish two sim
pie purpOseS-to make new streets con-
meet with older streets so as to afford
more or less continuous lines of travel
to make the streets wide enough to avoid
probability of congestion of travel.
When this plan is carried out in a rou-
tine way, he declared, with a minimum
Of thinking and trouble. the result is apt
to be a mechanically standardized ar
rangement of streets Of the same width
and the same distance apart.
Broader Idea Of City Planning.
..'The newer and broader idea Of city
planning he said. 'is not to provide ia
cilities for certain kinds of transportation
or to obtain certain architectural effects,
but is to direct the physical development
of the city, by every means of control
within the power Of the municipality. In
such a manner that the ordinary citizens
will be able to live and labor under con-

ATE LOVED SPARROWS
BEFORE GUllLOTINED

Paris. Nov. 29.--Amid remarkable
demonstrations OF joy from the natives
OF the district, Camille Favre was gull
lotined at Saintes, in the department
Of Observation-Disclosures.
This criminal had been convicted Of
the murder of a little 6-year-old girl,
and his execution gave unbounded de-
light to h mothers of the town, who
crowded the windows of houses in the
square outside the prison and uttered
cries Of satisfaction at the moment the
knife fell.
Favre spent the last days Of his life,
like many a prisoner before him, in
making friends with dumb creatures.
There were little birds which flew in
and out about the courtyard Of his
prison, n the man who had been
guilty Of the most brutal Of crimes oc-
cupied himself in keeping sparrows as
pets.
He caught a dozen of them, kept
them, tanned them, and began to love
them.
His warders thought that, after all,
there must be a touch of human feeling
In this nan. But were they right?
He loved them so well that on Friday
night he made a request to the prison
governor concerning the sparrows.
May / have six Of Them" he begged,
for my evening meal? Tomorrow he
added. with the utmost sangfroid-'to-
morrow / will finish the other six"
On the next morning he was exc
cuted.

SEEKS TO ENTRAP
HER PRETTY niece
Princess de Sagan, Title Mad,
Would Have Marjorie
Gould Wed.

Paris, Nov. 30.-As II the Goulds had
not gained a sufficiency Of foreign titles
In the family, with their attendant trou-
bles, Princess de Sagan, formerly Anna
Gould. Is said to be doing her utmost
to bring about a match between her
niece. Marjorie, and the Duke Of Ber-
wick, of England, better known as the
Duke d'Alba, and whose patronymic,
Stuart FitzJames, perpetuated the roy
al origin Of his house.
The princess approves OF the pro-
posed alliance, realizing what a splen-
did social position 1t would give her
niece, making her cousin of the ex-
empress of the French, Eugenia, who is
related to the family through nother
marriage, M establishing her in the
very best and most exclusive English
society.
But apart from this. the head of the
princess is, and has for a long time,
been completely turned through her
alteration for titles. Her friends ex-
pected that after she had realized the
awful mistake she made In having
married the unspeakable Count de Cas-
~tellane, she not only would seek no
more titles, but would have urged her
niece not to risk marrying a member
Of the nobility, who, no doubt, Is chiefly
anxious to annex a few million dollars
belonging to her wealthy father.
But not at all. She not only mar
ried that ancient roue. Prince de Sagan,
and suffered an intolerable amount Of
adverse criticism, but Is now urging her
relative to place her head in the lions
jaws, for while the Duke of Berwick 10
no doubt far above either de Sagan or
Castellane in morals, yet one never can
tell what the outcome will be of a
match where dollars, not love, is the
chief incentive.

Ten Lose Jobs and House
Cleaning, 1t Is Announced,

New York, Nov. 29.-Ten more as
sistant weighers were dropped by Col
lected Of the Port Loeb from the GUS
toms service today.
The collector announced that with
these dismissals the general house
cleaning" in the customs house, as the
result OF the investigation into under
weighing frauds, had been completed.
Some Individual cases remained, how
ever, on which he might find it nee
ssary to take action, the collector
added.
Mr.. Loeb stated that there were no
charges against the men removed to-
day, but that investigation had devel-
oped circumstances which made 1t seem
advisable to dispense with their serv-
ices.
Including today's dismissals, a total
of SO men have been removed by the
collector since the work of readjust-
ment of the staff of the customs serv-
ice began.
The men dismissed were civil serv-
ice a~ppointees and their successors will
be chosen from the civil service list
of eligibles.

OF BURGLAR IS
MOVED BY CHILDREN
After Threatening to Kill Their
Father, He Returns Money
He Stole.

Chicago, Dec. 1.-"Those are great
kids! I haven't much coin, but you
give them this from me-"
Thus spoke a burglar early today
as he returned to Adolph Huber the
money he had found in the Huber
home and had added thereto a
silver coin Of his own, because two
sleeping children. daughters of Huber.
caused the burglar to repent his crime.
Unconscious of danger, the W. chill
dren slept while the burglar with a
drawn revolver in an adjoining room
threatened to kill their father II he
did not give up his money.
After robbing the apartment In
which Huber was sleeping. the burg
lar entered the room In which the
children were sleeping, and after gaz-
ing at them for a moment, tiptoed out
and returned the money to their father.
