Many stories of the late Victorien
Sardou have been told in the newspa-
pers of Paris-stories Of his poverty
in his youth, his struggle for recogni-
tion as dramatist, his repeated fail
u,es, his ultimate success and above
all, his enormous capacity for work.
One such anecdote, printed by lie FL
caro-, testifies indirectly to the power
Of industry to inspire respect and con-
fidence in the character of the man
who practices It.
When Sardou was young he lived
and worked in an attic In the Latin
Quarter of Paris. 1t was in the days
before water carriers were a thing of
the past, and 1t came about that the
poor young man owed sixty francs to
the peasant from Auvergne who used
to carry UP his daily supply of water.
my good fellow" Sardou said to
him one day, II cannot pay you, and
don't know when l shall be able to. l
don't want to abuse your goodness any
longer, so l must ask you, until am
in position to settle with you, not
to bring any more water. l will fetch
1t myself"
But the Auvergnot would not hear
of such thing.
Monsieur" said he, 81 have been
watching you for long time When
bring your water you are always
writing. When q young man of your
education works as you do, one may
have entire confidence in him. He is
bound to arrive. shall go on bring
ing up your water as before You will
pay me when you succeed
1t was not long before the shrewd
Auvergnot's reading of Sardou's char
acter and abilities was justified.

WHEN MEN WORE sHAw1s.
Some 40 Years Ago They Took the
Place of Overcoats.


Some 40 Years Ago They Took thu
Place of Overcoats.
On very rare occasions you now see.
some old lady wearing a shawl, but
generally speaking. this once UNIVERSAL
garment has become obsolete.
Those children that are. say 40 years
old or more, can probably remember
when even men wore shawls instead
of overcoats. For about ten years
they were considered just the thing.
This was the decade beginning with
about 1850. President Lincoln was
very partial to his big Scotch shawl,
which, according to the vogue, he
wore, not folded diagonally In femi-
nine fashion, but folded lengthwise.
This folded shawl was passed
over the shoulders and around the
front, where it was either held by the
hands or pinned by huge shawl pin.
This case of the shawl is about the
only one where the men have appro-
priated an article Of wear from the
women's wardrobe-though the in
stances where the reverse has happen
ed are legion.
Even then, the shawl was originally
not a woman's garment exclusively,
for the Scotch Highlander has his tar
tan plaid, and the men of northern
Italy still wear a cloak which is very
little more than a shawl. There can
be no question that the shawl is more
useful and more picturesque as an ar
ticle of attire than the close fitting
coats both men and women now wear.
| Ihe shawl could in case OF emergency
be used to protect two persons, or to.
wrap a child in, or as an extra bed
covering; Its fashion did not change
every three months, and 1t could be-
used and passed down in the family
until 1t was worn out.
Nowadays the only time when such
articles are used is when people arc.
making an ocean trip or travelling in
Europe. Travelling rugs" which are
nothing more nor less than mems
heavy shawls, are extremely English:
and for travellers they are considered
very proper and desirable-but outside
of steamer, train or carriage no one
who cares for what people will say
would be seen with one.

Praise for Women

Was a woman ever known to blow
out the gas, asks a western paper.
or to be buncoed by a man who want,
ca 10 borrow money to pay freight
Dill? Does she ever get her pockets
picked or lose money on a little
gamer II she has a roll of money
with her, does she ever flash 1t when
she wants to buy a cake of chewing
gum? Isn't 1t fact that she is wiser
than the men and more to be trusted?
Instead Of woman having a man
along to protect" her, the daily pa.
pers prove that every man who goes
away from home should have a woman
TO act as guardian and keep him from
making bigger fool of himself than
he naturally is.

The statement or charge is frequent
ly met with that "the newer immigra-
tion," or the tapping of fresh sources
OF the human stream flowing westward,
Is responsible for the growth of vice,
delinquency and crime in the United
States. Occasionally court or prison
statistics are furnished which appear
to support the charge. A report of q
special committee on 'lawbreakers"
that has been submitted to the Ma
tional Conference of Charities and Cor
rection reaches the conclusion that
there has been no increase in serious"
crime, despite the heavy immigration
from unpromising sections of the
world. Whatever apparent increase in
criminality the figures indicate is de-
clared to be due to the tendency to
multiply minor or petty regulations
and prohibitions, State and municipal
AS examples, ordinances against spit
ting on sidewalks or in cars, against
Tipping pennies, giving away or sell
ms tidHoASi ., Duy AAo VA SSA4AAO SAO~
rettes, are named in the report. The
distinction Is one that every GRIM
inologist an morallst regards as
valid, and the conclusions of the COM
mittee will challenge attention in many
circles In this connection one notes
the contention Of one of the speakers
at the conference, Cleveland judge,
to the effect that $50 per cent OF the
foreign-born persons written into our
records as criminals have absolutely
no criminal inclinations," but are
merely the victims of ignorance and
misunderstanding. There may be some
exaggeration in the assertion, but there
can be no doubt that better under
standing Of American laws, customs
and morals on the part Of new immi-
grants, coupled with better under
standing by American judges, prose-
cutors and juries Of the unassimilated
aliens, and of their inherited and in
bred notions, would prevent many in
fractions of our laws and keep down
our prison population. Ignorance of
the law cannot be accepted as an ex-
cuse, but from higher social point
of view 1t makes all the difference In
the world whether in given class Of
offenses moral turpitude and de-
praved nature are revealed, or whether
unfamiliarity with our legal and moral
atmosphere and temporary conflict of
standards and conceptions furnish the
sufficient explanation. At any rate, the
discussion of the subject of immigra-
tion in relation to crime emphasizes
the value of proper parole and proba-
tion systems, of intelligent administra-
tion of the laws and of honest and
sympathetic Interpretation" of the
sentiments of the aliens among u.s.

1t is common to stigmatize the pres
ent as the age Of commercialism, and
America as distinctively the land of
the dollar. But there never was Pc
riod in history when SO many people
were working for religious, philan-
thropic and scientific ends. irrespective
of pecuniary returns, as there are to-
day, and we very much doubt If these
higher ends Of life are drawing as
many persons in the old world as in
the new.

Princeton's Cemetery May BE Called
Americas Westminster Abbey.
The cemetery at Princeton, where
Grover Cleveland was laid to rest, con-
tains the tombs of so many of the
illustrious dead that 1t has been called
the Westminster Abbey Of America.
Here slumber all of the dead presi-
dents of the college, save one; here
rest the remains of colonial justices,
Kings councillors, members of the
Continental Congress, officers Of the
army and navy, theologians and phi
lanthropists, the body of Vice Presi-
dent, and now tlat Of one who had
been President of the nation.
Here is the tomb of Aaron Burr,
and adjoining 1t the grave of Jonathan
Edwards Here, also, are the remains
of Richard Stockton, son Of one Of
the signers of the Declaration of In
dependence and himself distin-
guished statesman and jurist. Near
by is the grave of Commodore Robert
IF. Stockton, of the United States
Navy, the man who constructed the
Princeton, the first steam vessel in
our own or any navy. and who, in
1S47, with a small force, conquered
California.
Conspicuous among the tombs in
the Bayard lot is that of George Da-
shiel Bayard. brigadier general Of
volunteers during the civil war. and
who, at the time of his death, was the
youngest brigadier In the Union serv-
Ice and regarded as one Of the most
brilliant of It's young cavalry leaders
Near the tomb Of the valiant young
officer is that of Charles Hodge Dod
captain of the staff of Major General
Hancock, and who died In 1854 at
