DEMONSTRATION IN METZ

Great stress Is being laid in France upon an az
itation that has prevailed in Metz lately the New

when local association called La Lorraine Spor-
tive attempted to give concert in a room in a
hotel which IL had hired for the purpose No
sooner had NJ Samain the president arisen to
make an address of welcome in French than an
inspector OF police and eight consables took pos

police ordered the audience to dispense; instead
it hooted the police and shouted ''Vive la Lor-
raine!" Finally it marched out singing the Mar
seillaise, the trumpets still playing,
Saman was held prisoner for more than a week.
The police endeavored to get a full list OF mem

Another favored manner OF introduction for
pets aboard warships is by transfer from other
craft This is apt TO occur only when one yes

and newer craft is being placed in commission at
about the same time. and presumably at the same
navy yard There have been instances when

Indeed, the naval Tegulations-that bulky blue
bound volume which lays down the law for every
thing in the nayy-dignifes this subject OF pets
by devoting a paragraph to It. In this reference
to pets in the naval book OF etiquette it is set
down that the officer of the deck (who CORE
camp must not allow any pets to be brought
aboard unless the permission Of those In author
ity on the vessel be obtained.
However Ii Is only exceptionally grouchy
commander who ever makes any objection to the
presence on board of any reasonable number of
pets. Indeed, many an officer with natural
fondness for pets has come to have genuine af-
lection for four-foot9d friends aboard ship. More
over, the presence Of pets helps to keep the sea
men contented. And finally it is just well
for officer-considering the wellkuOwn super
