An attempt is to be made to revive
the former prosperity of the Palais
Royal quarter. This object has long
been before the municipal council;
but, in order to avoid the great eX-
pense of appropriation, il was deemed
wiser TO proceed by degrees, and, ac-
cordingly. the surrounding houses
were bought up as they happened to
be offered for sale.
Now, after 80 years. this operation
has been completed, and the work of
regeneration will very shortly begin.
1t comprises the demolition of the Rue
Radziwiil. a quaint old street full of
historical memories, and the enlarge
ment of the two streets running on
each side of the famous garden and
the widening of the approaches.

Paris, May 6.-Few, if any. ambas-

honors which came TO Robert Bacon

the French people that the ambassa-
dor should have retired.
A poor workman out of employ

When a musician to whom he had

money.
A few days later Ernest Schilling,
a well known American musician who
lives near Paderewski, offered the
clerk $4,000 for the violin, but the
negotiations have not yet been con-

New York, Feb. 19.-The series Of
recent highway robberies in crowded
New York streets, of which Thurs
days wild west hold-up of a taxi
cab and the robbery of two bank mes
sengers of $4,000 in cash was the
most sensational in years, was fol-
lowed by other hold-ups almost as
spectacular.
In the last of these reported George
Horth, a dealer in diamonds, with Of
fees in the Maiden Lane jewelry dis
trict, was robbed Of a wallet contain
ing $4,000 worth of diamonds by two
men who jumped from a taxicab at

in a vacant lot. Doughetry's assailant

GEN., A|NSW0RTH IS RETIRED
HIS ACTION QUASHES CHARGES
AGAINST HIM.
House Passes Army 6ill-Friction Of
Line and Staff Officers Be.
Iieved Remedied.

Washington, Feb. 10. Adjutant
General Fred C. Ainsworth, who was
relieved of his Office on charges as
sumed to be those of conduct preju-
dicial, to good order and discipline,
was placed on the retired list on his
own application. This precludes the
possibility of a courtmartial. Presi-
dent Taft approved General Aims
worth's application because of the Of
ficer's 81 years of service.
Friends of General Ainsworth in the
house of representatives, who resent
ed the charge that the adjutant gen
eral had been surreptitiously giving
information to the military affairs
committee, were planning to institute
a thorough investigation into the war
department. Chairman Hay of the
committee said that so far as he was
concerned, the officers decision ended
the agitation in congress.
AS q retired officer OF his rank,
General Ainsworth will draw an an
allowance of approximately $4,000.
which he had while on active duty.
The voluntary application for re-
tirement by General Ainsworth
quashes any charges against him.
With the avowed intention of put
ting an end to friction that for years
had existed between the officers of the
line and those of the staff, the house
adopted al amendment to the army
appropriation bill consolidating the
divisions of the chief of staff, the ad-
jutant general and the inspector gen
eral under M head, that of the bu.
reau of the general staff.
The chief Of staff would be the di.
recting head of the proposed bureau,
with the other two officers as staff
associates.

ment, the house also abolished five OF

U. s. ENGINEERS OPEN
 DREDGE BOAT BIDS
Lowest is for $295,000 for Two Big
 Arkansas River Dredges

B ds have been opened by the United States engineers at Little Rock ill the matter of propositions for the construction of two mammoth dredge boats for work on ehe Arkan- sas river, particularly for that sec tien from that city to Ozark.
 Four b ds were submitted, the low est being by the Dubuque Boa and Boiler Works at Dubuque, La., being S295,514 for the construction of the two dredges. The bid submitted by tie highest bidders was for $326,- coo. It will be probably two weeks before ehe contract is awarded, or Father before the successful con- pany is not fled to present it's bond ing credentials on the contract When this is shown, then the contract will be formally les and the work of con struction begin.
 Pfesuming that the contract is let to the lowest bidder, as above men t onad, it will still be over year be- fore either of the boats is ready. Building a dredge boat of the size and specification called for ill the contract is no small job. The Du- buaue concern asks 396 days in which to construct the first boat, and 694 days 10 construct the second.
 There is a total of 375,000 ayall- able for the construction of the dredge equipment, but tn S includes tow-boats and baEges as we'll as the dredges.
 The placing of these dredge boats in actual operation on the river is regarded as one of the greatest moves ever made for securing all-the-year- round navigation on tn Arkansas.
