MILAN WINS FIGHT
 IN CLASH WITH ROME

Rome, February 19.-(Special )--Rome and Milan, always jealous of each other, have clashed over the possession of an ancient statue The conflict ended in vic tory for Milan.
 The statue. an ancient Greek figure of Blobex, found during excavations in Rome, was taken to Milan. where 1t was housed in the Palazzo Sforza Rome claimed possession of the Niobe, arguing that she would be better cared for in the Eternal City. Milan resented. the insinua- tion, while officially consenting to the return of the statue.
 When the Mayor of Rome, Signor Nathan, arrived at the Palazzo Eforza, accompanied by the mayor of Milan, to take possession of Niobe, he was hissed and snow balled by an angry crowd. His hat was knocked off and the police guard were unable to protect him. Inside the palace the formal proceedings connected with the transfer were complicated by the opposition of the mayor and aldermen of

Milan. When the mayor of Rome left the palace for lunch he was again mobbed and snow-balled and all but rolled in the snow. ~s4 9
 Finally the matter was referred to the Milan courts, which annuled the order for ''sequestration. So Milan keeps her beloved Niobe, while Rome is "all in tears''-lilze the original Niobe.

A strange scene was enacted in the Folie- Mercourt police station yesterday. A few days ago an elegantly dressed young woman arrived at hotel in the Place de la Rupublique. She styled her self as Mlle Marie Bobin of Lyons, and appeared to be very wealthy. Soon the hotel staff got the notion that she was very eccentric. She would take long mo- | tor cab rides and return laden with val uable furs and jewels. She distributed money left and right; her liberality was illimitable.
 On reading in newspaper that woman named Demary had committed suicide in front of her five children, Mile Marie Bobin at once hailed 8 taxicab and drove to the house at Saint Denis where the tragedy occurred. "I am going to take these poor people out of their misery" she said.
 M. Demory was naturally surprised on seeing a well dressed young woman enter his humble lodging. But his surprise de- veloped into utter astonishment when Mile Bobin took off her furs and threw them on the table with her rings and banlnote of 50 francs.
 M Demory went to the mayoral offices to make a declaration of his wifes death. He took two of his children with him, leaving the three with Mile. Bobin. As soon as he left the house Mile Bobin took the three children Into the tdx1 ana with them drove back to the hotel, The hotel proprietor, on seeing the three un- kempt children. demanded an explana- ton. Mile. Bobin then acted so strange ly that the hotel proprietor put her down as mad and sent for the police.
 While she was being questioned at the police station a young woman was brought in and charged with theft. It turned out that she had recently been an inmate. of Sainte Anne asylum and was clearly mad.
 Then a strange scene happened. The two women made dash at each other. They got into grips and fought furiously. The inspectors had their work cut Sout to separate the mad women, who were conveyed to the special infirmary of the lockup The unfortunate M. Demofy. who had imagined that a guardian angel had been sent to him in his misfortune, was forced to restore the jewels and and furs.

FLOOD SUFFERERS
 IN GOOD HUMOR. Meet Disaster in Paris With Remarkable Courage. THE PEOPLE ARE WITTY Crack Jokes While Flood Destroys Properfy-Mad Women Create
 Strange Scenes at Paris
 Police Station.
By GEORGE DUFREsNE.

Paris February 19--(Special.) )--To one who has lived through the terrible ex- citing days of the recent flood and the even more discouraging days when the waters subsded, and the full extent of the enormous damage became more and more apparent, nothing seems more re- markable than the courage and even good humor with which the people of this city have borne the disaster.
 France is by some people considered as old and effete. and yet there wS have a sudden revelation of youthful strength and powers of resistance. in common with 1oyousness which nothing can shake off and which sees in everything an excuse for cracking a joke.
 Even in the most sorrowfu moments of the inundation, jest was not lacking in the general conversation. Laughter everywhere broke through the gloom, and witticisms bearing on the situation made a tour of the city.
 When, with all communications inter- rupted, Paris was cut off from the rest of Europe, the question was at once | asked: Well, what the deuce are our aviators going to do? Away with >aero- planes" Three centuries have passed since like inundation swamped the city | of Paris; but even at that time bonmots were circulated which industrious stu dents of history have diligently searched 1 for and once more brought into fashion Three hundred years ago the seven- teenth century Parisians said to each other: Well, the Seine is feeling better; it has risen from it's bed?' and when the water subsided they remarked that the river was in bad way since it was now in the gutter
The Birmingham age-herald., 1910-02-20


 This serves to show the population of the now great city has not changed in the least, and at the moment of need it was not wanting in treasures of feeling, passion, valor and promptitude, which more than once served to confound the prophecies of politicians
 The flood was received as disagree able guest. but one who couldn't be got rid of, and Ire was accordingly adapted to the surrounding circumstances. Thus it happened that one saw ladies in even- ing dress proceeding to the theatre in boats, receptions continued and 1t was by no means rare to meet fashionable gen tlemen navigating to banquets. It was precisely to banquet that gentleman whose photograph l have seen was pro- ceeding; he was wearing fur coat and a silk hat and was rowing bathtub.
 The Seine broke through its bed into one of the new tunnels of the Nord-Sud railway, which forms with the rest of the fast subterranean network gigantic system of communicating veins. The river took possession of the foundations of Paris and the danger did not cease with the cessation of the flood. Immense, lengthy and costly works will be nee essary. Certain 1t is that the greater part of the drainage system is working badly, and at the moment the extent of the damage cannot be ascertained.
 The visible damage is comparatively small, because the flood has carried on subterranean assault, has penetrated into mysterious ways, and invaded the wiridings of hidden channels. In order to drive out the enemy it will be neces- sary to dig up roads, rebuild sewers, re- construct pavements and turn miles and miles of streets upside down. If to this material damage is added to the damage done to business by the closing of shops, that caused by the destruction of sta tions. which will have to be rebuilt, and the losses to private persons, the sum of &. .O0O. GOO, GOO appears to be a reasonable estimate of the loss of Paris alone with out calculating the damage to the devast- ated country. It is the cost of war.
