What Is Coming?

What is the world coming to next year, that is? Madame de Thebes, who still has a vogue as a soothsayer in Paris, will presently tell the great public the whole truth, so far as it has been revealed to her in her almanac. In the meah.ine we are enabled to have forecast of the worlds immediate future. Madame de Thebes reminds me that she said we would have in 1912 "a black year." and tfat we have had 1t. On the other hand. in 1912, we are to have "a year of new dawns." The next 12 months are to be the prelude to noble awakenings, striv- ings toward the summits.'
 The new year will be arrayed in gar ments of divers colors. It will have "the gray of the hour which gives place to the surprise" mingled with the purple which proclaims the victory of the day" On the whole, then, let all who are not the "haut fonctionaires" of France, whom great danger awaits, lat table and even more in the street" rejoice and be glad. What can the lady mean about these On the face of it, it seems that the new ly appointed state cook had grounds for an action for libel. As for danger fin the street" of course that is the com- mon lot. The Paris chauffeur is without mercy or scruple.

 Ridiculous YOUNG MEN IN NAVY Is Difficulty in Getting Operatives for Lancashire Mills-Much Specula-
 tiOn as to Wars Effect on
 Textile Trade

London. December lip. J. Baker, the Cambridge athlete, has undertaken the defense of the American methods of train ing for the Olympic games which have come in for so much condemnation in England since the Olympiad at Stock holm, and he also defends the Americans against the charges of fouling their op- ponents, which have been so freely made.
 .For months,'' he says, our papers have been full of articles proving (al- ways without evidence) that the American runners were guilty of every foul in the calendar Mr. Lehman was the first to formulate in it's completeness the doctrine of the divine right of the amateur not to train. The argument is this: No team can win the Olympic games without training similar to that indllged in by the Americans; such training is profes- sional in nature and in spirit it reduces the games to the level of commercial enterprise: we cannot undertake it with out degrading what has always been for us a 'splendidly rough and ready sport into business, which is inconsistent with our high ideals of amateurism; and, there fore, 0 shades of county cricket secre- tarles, we will affront the German na- ton by withdrawing from the competi- ton at Berlin.

of NJ. Poneare. NJ, Cavaignae leads the assault on the whole course of the French Balkan negotiations. He says, franee Is not the protector of the Christians of the east, nor Is she bound to intervene whenever and wherever violence Is done to them. The government must be mad if 1t assumes responsibiitles or a direct initiative in Asia Minor
 The clerical press says the opportunity to raise the whole question of French politicRl relations with the Vatican, which have been in abeyance since 1903. The archbishop of Paris broke long silence to engage in the controversy. His grace says that the best interests of France have greatly suffered.
 Attention is called to the fact that the traditional rights of France in the east dc not apply to Christians in general, but to Roman Catholic eccleeiastlcs, pill grims, and monks, and their religious and charitable establishments.
 Article 6S of the treaty of Berlin rec ognized that all the powers may exercise this right of protection, though 1t mak es 0 reservation in favor of the special rights of France. It has already been pointed out that the right of protection, which was accorded to Germany among other powers by article 62 of the treaty of Berlin, was especially confirmed to her by the porte some ten years ago
 The Catholic organ, L'Univers, takes the view that the Balkan governments, which are about to take the place of Turkey in her European possessions, are not com- pentent to exercise the right of protec- ton over Roman Catholic Christians. ''The conquerors," it says may, indeed. think themselves capable of protecting all Christians more effectively than dis tant power, which officially professes theism and has broken with Rome. This pretension cannot be admitted by Cath olic France The Univers, therefore, demands, flor the church and for France that the government, however illogical it may seen. should have the pa- triotism Ito resume French traditions and to constitute itself the energetic pro- tector in the east of the faithful whom it persecutes at home."

Prisoners Mutiny

The prison of Rockefort has been the scene of a savage mutiny. When the chief warder, Leopold Archinard. entered ar the dinner hour cell occupied by eight convicts. he was set upon and hacked to death before he could draw his revolver. His wife, who came to his aid, shared his fate. Fourteen razor slashes were found on her dead body. An officer of the Seventh Colonial infantry, passing beneath the prison windows, heard the sounds of the struggle and ran upstairs Both he and one of the con- victs, sailor who brayely took his part, were severely wounded.
 By this time the report of the mutiny had spread and a strong force of police and gendannes surrounded the prison. On the ground floor they found the dead body of the assistant warder. with a hatchet wound in the throat. Mounting to the first story, with revolver in hand, they came upon the bodies of the other four victims, Archnard and his wife were dead but the sailor and the leuten- ant still breathed. Of the murderers there was no sign. They had mounted to the third floor, and there barricaded them selves in a cell.
 Night had now fallen. The electric light had been cut off. presumably by the criminals, and the police advanced
  of an acetylene flare.
 "Open in the name of the law'' cried the commissary Receiving no reply he gave orders that the door should be broken in. At the moment that 1t fell the flare fickered and went out. There was a desperate melee in the darkness. A sergeant was wounded in the left arm by a razor anu a glancing stroke from hatchet cut through the coat of the commissary, who drew his revolver and fired two shots at random.
 A few seconds later the torch was re- lighted, and it was possible to explore the interior of the cell. Of the seven con victs five were huddled in the corner, too cowed for further resistance. One lay on the floor with a bullet through his heart The random shot had told. The corpse of the seventh swung from the roof The mutiny has so far cost five lives but 1t is doubtful whether two of the three wounded will recover. The ser geant's wound is not grave.
 The whole affair is mysterious, and il is difficult to understand how the con viets were able to obtain and concea such formidable weapons as razors and hatchets. There must have been a con certed plot, in which Druhonnet, sailor recently condemned by court martial, was probably the ring-leader. It was his body which was found hanging from the roof.

 Really" said the eommissary, in a tone of polite scepticism.

His whole body was a network or tattooing. The most charming pas torals of the. master, including the l.

Do you think he cried, that l would have endured all the hours of torture represented by this for a mere whim. No; l wished to render homage to my renowned ancestor as far as in-he might have said on-we lay" Then Achille burst into tears.

Paris, December .-(Speicla.)-The lat |EA craze of fashionable Parisiennes is oerfuming by hypodermic injection mo- ice that some of the writers attribute its origin to a celebrated actress. This is far from being correct. The whim of a clever and popular American society lead |sr, Mrs. Bobby McCreary, gave it ,yogue.
 | Mrs McCreary was entertaining some k omen friends in her charming little flat which looks right down upon the Arc du
 Triomphe-there wasn't a man in the company-and two of the younger women
 suggested that they should run over their hostess's wonderful stock of toilet helps. Among her friends, t is no secret that this clever lady-one of the best dressed
 n Paris-is a faddist in novel notions of the dressing room. During the inspection which followed her girl friends's sugges- .ion, Mrs. McCreary gave a private view of the latest wrinkle in personal perfum- |sry. Of course, the secret was too good Q keep and by nightfall it was all around Fashionable Paris.

What the Baby Grabbed
the Boston Traveller.

From the Boston Traveller.
 Samuel A. Thompson. secretary of the Rivers and Harbors Congress. while lec- turing before the Fruit and Produce Ex- change, told the following anecdotes:
 Among a certain people" he said. "It used to be the custom to test the future of a baby by placing before him coin, a Bible, a piece of cloth and several other articles. The article which the baby grabbed was supposed to indicate it's fu- ture calling. Thus, if he grabbed the Bible he would be preacher, if the money he would be a business man, if the cloth tailor, etc.
 "Once, when a proud father was trying out this test the baby snatched the Bible in one hand, the coin in the other, the piece of cloth in his teeth and began to try to gather in all the rest with his arms.
 '' 'Mien Gott.' cried the man, he grabs everything in sight. He's going to bs a railroad man. r"

 With the transfer of the larger part Of European Turkey to the Balkan allies certainty, Lancashire cotton spinners, and in fact manufacturers all over the eoun- try are beginning to wonder what ereet it will have upon trade.
 The cotton men fear that the effect will be bad and have urged the government to press for the maintenance of the open door in the Balkans. Turkey. q good customer of the cotton mills. only places a duty of Il per cent on all goods, while Bulgaria imposes duties varying from 30 to 75 per cent. Besides Bulgaria al- ready does certain amount of cotton spinning and manufacturing and Will doubtless want to encourage the growth of it by further increasing the duty on imported goods.
