FRENCH PRECAUTION
No More Mona Lisa Episodes


 PARIS, Oct. 2.-M Pujalet, the administrative expert whom the gov srnment has entrusted with the task of recognizing the Louvre Museum, has lost no time in setting about his by no means easy undertaking.
 A very brief examination revealed to him the appalling manner in which the nations art treasures were left unguarded. and his first step was to immediately close a number of rOomS for which no guardians were avail able. These rooms will in the fu- ture be opened to the public only in turn on one or two days of the week The museum henceforth will be opened at II o'clock in the morning instead of at g.
 To prevent the recurrence of theft like that of the Mona Lisa a rule has been made that no picture may be removed from the wall with out written order signed by the cura- tor and which must be left with the guardian in charge of the room who keeps it until the picture is returned to it's place.
 M Pujalet decided to furnish the staff of night watchmen with two watch dogs, and selected them st the police kennels at Charenton. The { animals, who combine ferocity with sagacity, answer to the names of Jack" and Milford" the first being ! of Greenlandish origin and the sec ond hailing from Belgium. The dogs will accompany the night watchmen on their rounds.
 The theft of the Mona Lisa has de- ! veioped some curious incidents. Among | the horde Of sordid beggars who i'm perfume the faithful on the steps of | the old church of St. Eustache in | Paris Central Market square was a | woman of 8 years, decently dressed ! in black, who stopped the passersby, ! requesting to be taken to the Louvre i T am the Joconde, she said 1 and the person who carried me of | has abandoned me; l have no home. The unfortunate woman was taken l by policemen to the police infrmary | whose officials communicated with her family. She had been missing l from her home for two days.
 The aviator, Latham, has just con | cluded the trials Of a novel mono ! plane, the invention of the engineer Lavavascseur. Destined for the mil itary service, it is Of exceptional < strength. It has lifting surface oi | l60 square feet and scales the sur prising weight of 1.7O0 pounds. Its most vulnerable parts are armoreC , with aluminium plates which, while ! they would not be very effective against a Lebel bullet and still less against a shell, nevertheless consti tute a certain protection for the en zine, the levers and the aviator.
