Paris in June.

Just as the Goths and the Van
dals descended on Rome 1900 years
ago, so the Americans are invading
the supreme city of France, and
each passing steamship on the north
coast deposits hundreds Of voyagers,
with clinking louis, who are bound
for Paris. The simile of the Vandal
hordes and the Americans and Rome
and Paris ends with the quantity,
because In the wake of the Amer
leans there are laughter and good
cheer and roseate prosperity instead
of the desolation and horror which
followed the visits Of the intruders
to Rome.
The public of Paris smiles very
joyously this year because LA PAN
ique Americana" Is thing Of the
past. and the shops Of the Rue de
la Paix scintillate as in former years
with the exception that each dia-
mond seems to have gained a carat
in the II months. The ostrich
plumes seem to have increased their
weight and the silks have gained in
richness and splendor. The same
Americans are to be seen bowed to
their motors, slipping tea in the chic
restaurants and sitting resolutely in
hundred-franc loges in the theatres.
Society in Paris continues active
to the point of hysteria, and the
American-born Baronne Selliere and
la Marquise de Talleyrand-Perigo
are still able to dictate who are and
who are not good Americans. 3"
Madame la Duchesse Dues, through
her New York Affiliations, graces
many star-spangled entertainments.
There is the diverting anecdote of
a highly mature duke, who, after
lunching at an American apartment,
borrowed 500 francs. When his
host criticized this relic of the old
| noblesse, a friend observed, Dukes
are quoted very cheaply on the Paris
Bourse' This anecdote proves how
very happily the Parisians and the
Yankees are mingling this season.
One sees at the countless after
noon parties in Paris men in beauti-
fully tailored morning coats-little

MEN.
Conference Called for Dec. q

terested in Out
come.

Chicago Record Herald: Loo
ornotive firemen employed n
the Chicago and Northwestern
Railroad yesterday met with a
fiat refusal to their demands
for an increase in wages on all
large engines. A general COM
mittee, headed by S. A. Boone,
representing all firemen on the
Northwestern system, held a
conference with General Mana
ger r. H. Ashton Of the road,
who declared that no wages in
crease would be considered by
the railroad at this time.
The first demands of the fire.
men were for a schedule of
So go per 100 miles on large
freight engines, and So Is on
passenger engines. The de
mands later were modified to
So. 40 for freight engines. The
present rates paid are So 80 on
freight and So IS on passenger
engines per 100 miles.
The Northwestern fireman
will await the action of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive
Fireman and Enginemen, which
has been called to meet in this
city Dec. q. The board repre-
sents the firemen on every road
running west, northwest and
southwest from Chicago and
has made demands on the rail-
roads for a general wage adj
vance of about Is per cent,
The demands cover approx.
mately Is 600 firemen.
PRESENT UNITED FRONT.
The call of the meeting of
the board was issued yesterday
by President w. S. Carter of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen and Enginemen, and
it is understood that the gen.
eral managers have agreed to
a conference. In the last gen.
eral agreement covering the
western railroads, the men on
the Northwestern lines were
not represented, but made a
schedule for them
selves. This time they are
willing to act with the men on
the other systems and present
a united front to the managers.
The demands which were turn
ed down yesterday dealt only
with special cases which could
not be handled in a general con-
ference, but the refusal Of the
road to meet them was taken
rs an indication of what is to be
expected when the general

play that holds .i'a attention of
the audience frorn the time the
curtain goes up on the first
scene until it goes down on the
last act. Faith Avery was in
deed fine. Her Interpretation
of the character was true to
life, and the ladies in the audi
ence dropped more than one
tear over her troubles. Hal
cyon Bisnette, as Caroline Liv-
ingston was exceptionally fine,
and acted her part so we'll that
she was execrated by the ladies
of the audience. George Bis

a character true to life, while
Thomas Hopkins, as Harry Ora

applause Of all the audience.
Joel Slocum, the unsophisticat-
ed country boy, represented by
Theo Bixler was so natural to

kept the audience in good

entire evening. The company
is composed of first class actors
throughout and their rendition
of the play was the best that
has been seen in this city for a
