ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCHl

 zation of a special night brigade of ! police independent. in some respects, . of the regular force, but cooperating 1 closely with it.
 The initiators, deputies. municipal l and members of trade or ganizations, have obtained the approval | of the government and the prefect of police This night auxiliary force will be armed with revolvers and night sticks. Each man will have police dog trained to pull down any one running, and to hold him until called off by the policeman. These dogs, largely bred in Belgium. are 1.-the. strong animals and are often a cross between the wolf and the European sheep dog.
 It is good deal of risk for the night wayfarer in a Paris street to run for a distant cab. He is likely to be startled by one of these swift ami mals darting out from a dark corner and leaping for him, unless arrested by the sharp call of the policeman. The police dog, d good many of which are now attached to the regular service, has become, therefore, in itself a new danger in the night life of the capital.
 The scene of the accident which cost Professor Pierre Curie his life is to be renamed. IS a permanent memorial to the discoverer of radium. NJ Curie was knocked down by a wagon and killed as he was walking up the narrow old rue Dauphine, which leads from the POnt Neuf to the Boulevard St. Germain IL has now been decided to cut through the numerous ancient mar row streets that converge on the south ern end of the Pont Neuf and create a new square, which is to be called the Place Pierre Curie.
 The ancient chateau of Elewyt, once Rubens Belgian country home, is soon i to be put up to public auction This historical domain was entirely renovat 1 ed about htirty years ago by the pres l ent owner, and the facade, the tower l and all the principal building restored to the original style. The large hall which was the studio of the master, 1 contains a magnificent chimney piece | of the sixteenth century. Efforts are i being made to persuade the govern ment to purchase the property and make it national monument. The 1 house of Rubens at Tntwerp was de- stroyed, and it is feared that this i splendid monument of the great pain l ter vii suffer the same fate.
 The American cavalryman must be 1 himself and just himself. He cannot l be a compromise of the many-typed cavalryman of Europe"
 Such is the conclusion of Lieut. Colonel Dickman of the United States army, who has been touring Europe with fellow officers to study closely the i European cavalry systems. Speaking of the grace of the French cavalryman and pointing out how different the Ital- ian horseman is from anybody else ir Europe, he said: The cavalryman is the development and the embodiment of the conditions surrounding him. | geographically, territorial and physical The Italian fighting the willy Arabs 1T the sand plains outside of Tripoli found his long lance ineffective against tht enemy, who crouched down in holes il the sand, and with his long rifle picked off the advancing horseman. So thu Italian had to get down from his hors and shoot the Arab out of his hole" 1 sack and the American cowboy Colone Dickman continued;
 Both are daring and splendid rid
 CTS. The great difference is that tn . cowboy has more intelligence than tn Cossack, whose brilliant charges ar
 founded on system which, strangel r enough, was introduced into Russi l from abroad. Of course, the cowbO
 method has influenced Tn some way
 the type of American cavalryman c
 today Yet even here there IS diff
 ference. The cowboy covers perhaps , . miles day at a slow, lOping gait, an . then takes a fresh horse for the nor d row. Not so the cavalryman in cam = paign. He must carry his equipmer | and he must husband his horse for tn
 morrow. l think we can say in gen = eral that the American cavalryman n very efficient We merely wish { 2 make him more efficient by adaptin
 anything from Europe that may seel
 adaptable to our system, our climat
 our problems and our way of doin l business"
 '' The cavalry commission, subject
 the approval of the war departmen
 will experiment with some ideas thS - have been gathered abroad at one
 the army posts probably at San Ar tonio Texas. The commission, aftt y leaving France, concluded its tour @ Europe by two weeks with the Englis
 army. It will probably return to Wasf
 ington before the New Year.
