You want me to prove my asser- ton? You need only observe the American women who have married foreigners, not with the sole object of acquiring a title. They invariable settle down to living exactly as the sisters and relatives of her husband and give up all thoughts of self improvement and other fads. You never find an American woman hap oily married to a Frenchman or an Italian or a Spaniard going to lec- lures or worrying about her mental development. She is satisfied to be woman. That is, she is a coquette, desirous of pleasing man."
 MT. Provost made a gesture, as much as to say: What can you reply to that?" and the interviewer, although feeling that there was much to say on the other side. made no attempt to do so. For what is the use of arguing, particularly with a man of letters who, in the bargain, is convinced of his own irresistibil- ity? Marcel Provost smiled at his triumph over the interviewer, carried away by his own logic.

CALIFORNIA; SCENIC BOULE
 YARD.

one of the most beautiful scenic drives in California will be thirty miles long, beginning at Fremont Gate, the main entrance to Elysian park, following the range of hills on the south side of the Los Angeles riv- CT, dropping down through Griffith park to the river valley. which will be followed as far as the town of Burbank, and thence turning back through Wild Cat pass and portion of Cahuenga pass to Hollywood and thence back to the central portion of the city.
 There are views and vistas and beauty spots all along the road, any one of which could be made the sub ject of a really great painting. There are elevations from which all the sur rounding country is visible and others where the mountains tower high above the road

presents as one gives toys to a child. or a man whose only thought is how to make her happy, who devotes ev- cry minute of the day to winning her heart, and who through long train ing has acquired all the subtleties and finesse of the art of fascination? It seems to me that every woman will prefer the latter And that is the type never found in the United States"
 Here it may be permissible to open a parenthesis. As Mir Provost was talking the interviewer wanted to protest vehemently It sounds very will to say that in France a man thinks of pleasing women only; still, judging by French manners and nor als the result is perhaps not so ad- mirable. In the second place. if man really did spend all his time in thinking of how to fascinate a wom- an-presumably his wife-what would the family live on? Love is good, no doubt. But bread and butter is nec- essary. And a man who only thought of love the livelong day would prob ably be unable to support his fam fly.
 ITO come back to my point MT. Provost continued Since in the United States you have a race of men for whom woman is not of vital interest, d corresponding change must naturally come over young women. The American woman has long felt that the American man-tO speak in generalities, of course-does not care for her. cannot love her in the way a woman wants to beloved. It would be useless and irksome for her to try 60 combat this tendency i'm definitely. So in self defense. and to try to fill her empty heart, the American woman takes up all sorts of fads and fancies She studies. she goes in for new philosophies and re- liglons. These keep her busy, and for the time being, as you say, she does not think of pleasing men. But her changed attitude does not spring from her own dovclopment-it comes from tine American mans indiffer- ence.

LEBLANC LEADS AIR RACE
Fifth Stage Completed in Hour and
Nine Minutes.
Auburn Is Closest Behind, with One
More Flight To BE Made for
lie MRtin Prize.

Douai. France Aug. 15.-The fifth ler
in the remarkable aeroplane race around
the Eastern circuit, as it is called. start
ed here to-day. On Saturday the fourth
leg of the aerial voyage was held. under
the most adverse conditions, and when
two Of the aviators. Leblanc and Au.
brun, arrived here they were exhausted
and in bad physical condition. High
winds impcded the progress Of the race
and the two aviators only ventured into
the upper air when the mile-a~minute
gale had slackened.
The stage of the race held TODAY was
the flight TO Amiens. There is one more
section Of the race TO be held. Amiens
70 Paris, and it is now. predicted that
Leblanc will carry away first honors.
although Auburn is a close second. Much
interest has been aroused in the race ow-
ing to the flying contests at the stopping
places and the fact that military aviators
have participated. much to the anger Of
their German friends across the boundary.
One German paper has even gone so far
as to advocate the blowing up OF French
aeroplanes which hover over the border.
The conditions Of the race. which IS
for prize Of $4,000, offered by lie NIatin.
OF Paris, are severe, but so far wind
rain. fog. and storms have been con-
quered, and it is predicted that the re-
naming stage Of the race will be covered
IL the same manner as the preceding
four. The participating aviators have
been put to much use Of the compass and
sectional maps in their flights, but have
been handicapped because Of the high
winds. Leblanc has twice complained Of
having his maps blown away and his
compass rendered useless.
Legagneux. who has experienced much
hard luck, and who was the first to ven
ture out In the winds on Saturday. start

the race to-day and started at 5:A

Man Was Coming.

Indianapolis, Aug. IA decided sensa-
ton was created in the convention Of
the United Mine Workers this morning.
when John Mitchell. whose presence in
the city was not suspected. entered the
hall and walked down the aisle. The
moment he was recognized the delegates
rose 20 their feet and greeted him with
hearty applause.
President LEWIS stared AZ the new
conner and was evidently nonplussed while
the Illinois delegates crowded around the
former chieftain OF the miners and
seemed 70 look upon his coming as
auguring success for their cause.
Mitchell declined a seat on the stage.
saying that he came as a delegate from
his old local at Spring Valley, III and
would seat himself with the delegates OF
that State, whereat there were more
cheering from the Illinois delegates
In a brief speech. Mitchell said that he
had come here without any preconceived
idea regarding the difficulties before
the convention. and that he intended TO
be guided in what he does by his convic-
tons OF duty.
Friends Of Lewis do not know what 70
make Of Mitchelrs coming. as he had not
been reported as a delegate, and it was
plainly the intent Of those who sent him
to make his appearance a surprise. The
conservative members hope that his in
fluence will be exerted for peace. but the
Lewis faction Is plainly app-ehensive-
