in matters of caste. It is woman who wields, practically alone, the potent forces of social favor and disfavor, and when one turns to consider the attitude of men toward professional life for girls, the contrast is so abrupt that one cannot help wondering whether a triumphal in stinct of sex-rivalry, gratified and relent- ing, has ont done something to mould the society woman's benignant attitude toward the professional girl.
 For only one-half of these girls believe that men look with sympathetic eyes up- on their vacations, while the other half declare that men regard their profess sions with eyes of Jealousy, suspicion or frank amusement.

 Journalist

Paris, November 12.-(Specal.)- )-The chances of a republic in Spain are more remote than certain interested journals in Paris would let the world believe. The inquiry started by the Matin on the sub ject is illusory, because 1t is prompted by anti-Catholic animus M. Lerroux, the Spanish republican deputy. may be pop ular leader, but he is not recognized by all the advanced groups. His assertion that there will be Spanish republic in three or four years Is but the optimism of the peninsula points to an approaching revolution and a republic there are bar riers apparently insuperable.
 The importance of the Catholic rising has not been sufficiently signalized in the press. Their committees, or 5untas, have in a few weeks sprung up all over the country, and 50 Spanish bishops have placed themselves at their head They are already turning their eyes toward Don Jeime de Bourbon as the protector of their faith. King Alfonso, by associat- ing himself with NJ. Canalejas has shaken the confidence of many of his subjects.
 A significant feature, too, is the changed attitude of the fnanciers and the bur geois. who, seeing that the growing spirit of anarchy puts private property in dan ger, are showing an inclination to con- sider the claims of the pretender. When the revolution comes, should it come, Don Jaime will appear on the scene and prob ably remain.

The necessity of keping the troops near at hand tends to make Paris more and more military centre. The post of mili- tary governor is something more than a sinecure and Parisians have learned with satisfaction that General Dastein, who retires from the active list, is succeeded by General Maunoury, one of Frances best commanders of army corps. It was this general who inspected the German frontier from an aeroplane dur ing the famous eross-country flight. The incident gave displeasure at Berlin, and 1t is not unlikely that his transfer to Paris is due to the circumstance. Mean while, General Brun, Fernch minister of war has succeeded in his scheme of forming a center of higher studies in military science.
 It will be a six months experiment, the object being to bring together more intimately the superior council of war. the general army staff, and the Ecole de Guerre. A score of field officers will be carefully selected from the national gar risons to acquire in Paris the art of forming armies and leading them to bat tie. They will be the best men the gen. erals can pick out, and when their studies are over the French army will possess a corps delite of great value.
