PARs, Oct. l4--Edouard Clunet,
former president OF the Institute of
International Law, in an article on
tho status of the Belgian Government
! in its installation on French soil says
that the rarity OF the incident does not
allow OF Il direct reply to the ques-
tons which have arisen in connection
with II.
VI. Clunet says that some analogy
must he sought to the situation There
have been cases OF sovereigns who
have lost their power and have sought
refuge In neighboring states, In which
the outward honors due to royalty were
accorded by courtesy. He also in
stances cases OF sovereign dis
posse ssed from his own country geek
ing haven In a state which, not hav-
ing recognized his successor. continued
to treat him in every respect as the
head OF his state.
But now" NJ Clunet continues.
France offers hospitality to the head
Of a state who fully possesses power
over and the attachment Of his peo-
pie, and also to a constitutional Gov
eminent over which he presides"
The French Government. seeking a
case approaching most nearly the pres
ent one, selected the situation OF the
Holy See in italy
But" he adds. "Papal exterritorial-
ity under the law guarantees Is no,
complete. The residences Of the Pope
and the acts transacted there are under
the control Of the italian Government.
The Pope, from the French point of
view Is not considered the chief Of
state and the flag OF the Vatican does
not represent nation, hence this re-
gime must be enlarged for Belgium.

OneAo the greatest laugh rrozokers of the season is Max's Circus which opened at Polls theatre yesterday. From the bareback riding down to the kicking mule there's a lot Of fun. It's a real circus with ten clever per formers besides many educated dogs, horses. ponies and mules and many feats of exceptional merit are fur nished, in addition to the comedy features. No end of laughter ie fur niehed by the efforts Of the perform CTS and spectators to stay on the whirling table and kicking mule.
 Based on the life lived by the four New York gunmen who were electro cuted yesterday in Sing Sing and showing an e1ectrocdtion, sThe Gang sters of New York;" a thrilling four reel special photoplay, is of partic- ular interest. Many other first re- lease films are shown. Beautiful sing ing and side-sp1itting comedy features are strong points with the Boo.

Everything is mu- sicaI in The Musical Crockery Shop, and delightful harmony is extracted from all sorts of glasses and crockery.
 Broadway's latest hits are furnished by Charles & Marie, clever singers. dancers and piahists.
 New feats in aerial gymnastics are presented by Landry Brothers, per- formers of exceptional ability. The act was warmly received. Louis Lon- don in repertoire Of clever songs and parodies won his full share of ap- pIause with his fine voice.

ETenC6man was COO 04peE0HC0Qs q marksman not to know that, he had scored a hit Still Tarzan made nc move to raise his pistol. De Coude fired once more, but the attitude of the ape-man-the utter indifference that was so apparent in every line of the nonchalant ease of his giant figure and the even, unruff1ed puf1pg of his cfga- rette-had disconcerted the best marks man in France. This time Tarzan did not start, but again De Goude knew, that he had hit.
 Suddenly the explanation leaped to his mind-his antagonist was cooIiy taking these terrible chances in the hope that he would receive no stagger- ing wound from any of De Coude's three shots. Then he would take his own time about shooting De Coude down deliberately, coolly and in cold blood A little shiver ran up the Frenchman's spine. It was hendish- aiaboIica1. What manner of creature was this that could stand comp1acently with two bullets in him, waiting for the third?
 And so De Coude took careful aim l this time, but his nerve was gone, and he made a clean miss. Not once had | Tarzan raised his pistol hand from where it hung beside his leg. 1 For a moment the two stood looking straight into each. others eyes. On Tarzan's face was a pathetic expres- sion of disappointment. Oh De Coude's a rapidly growing expression of horror yes, of terror.
 He could endure it no longer.
 "Shoot, monsieur!'' he screamed. But Tarzan did not raise his pistol. | r1-- f7<S and when D'Arnot and M. Flaubert, nisinterpreting his intention, would have rushed between them he raised his left hand in a sign of remonstrance.
 ssDo not fear,'' he said to them. CT shall not harm him.''
 It was most unusual, but they halted. l Tarzan advanced until he was quite close to De Coude
 There must have been something wrong with monsieur's pistol he said. .sOr monsieur is unstrung. Take mine, monsieur, and try again" and Tarzan I offered his pistol butt foremost, to the astonished De Coude.
 ssMon Dieu, monsieur cried the lat ter. Are you mad ?'
 ssNo, my friend, ]" replied the ape-man, sebut I deserve to die. It is the only way in which may atone for the wrong have done very good woman l Take my pistol and do as I bid.

 sI do not mean thats said Tarzan quickly ssYou saw all the wrong that passed between us But that was enough to cast a shadow upon her name and to ruin the happiness of 3 man against whom I had no enmity The fault was all mine, and so hoped to die for it this morning.
