PARIS IS PICTURED
IN NEWMAN LECTURE
Palaces. Churches, Parks. Monuments,
Amy Maneuvers and Styles in
Dress Shown on Screen.

Paris. unrivaled center of art and
fashion, was made to pass in review be-
fore Z. NJ. Newman's large audience
at the Columbia Thester last evening.
He presented new and excellent color
views and motion pictures Of all the I'M
portant and historic palaces, churches.
avenues. monuments, parks. and beauti-
full environs of this most fascinating Of
cities. and gave a clear idea Of boule-
ward and bohemian life in the gay French
Capital.
Art treasures Of the Luxembourg and
Louvre. the world famous fountains Of
Versailles. Napoleon's tomb. the dog
cemetery. Notre Dame Cathedral. Eiffel
Tower. the splendid opera house. the
palaces Of Fontainbleau, Versailles, and
Luxembourg. and their magnificent gar
dens: the Montmartre and Latin quarters.
with their cabaret and art student life,
and a hundred other fascinating and
beautiful scenes were pictured on the
screen with clearness.
The world OF the modiste and cos
tumer-of Paquin. Worth. Poiret, and
other noted designers-was visited by
Mr.. Newman. The latest creations of
these establishments, as worn by pro-
fessional models at the Grand Prix.
Longchamps and Deauville, and today
in Paris, also were shown.
Motion pictures OF army msneuvers
and other incidents connected with the
recent visit of the King of Spain to
Paris were not the least entertaining of
subjects, the President of the French
republic and other notable personases
being much in evidence.
Mr.. Newman will repeat this real
travel-talk de luxe at AS o'clock this
afternoon. and next Sunday evening the
course will be continued with a visit to
Rome, the Eternal City"

Income TAX CLAUSE
MAY BE HARD Fought
Right of Congress to Compel Collec-
ton at Source Is Very
Likely.
WILL BE BITTERLY OPPOSED

The right OF Congress to compel cor
porations TO collect income taxes at the
source will be fought out in the courts.
in the belief of Department of Justice
officials.
II was stated yesterday that the de-
partment already is preparing for a legal
battle following the protest filed by the
Southern and Virginia railroad, a sub
ordinate company of the Southern Rail-
way. with the Treasury Department.
II Is said that no presidents exist which
cover this question. The railway claims
that its rights under the Constitution
have been abridged by the law.
Successful prosecution OF its claim by
the railway will result in the annulment
OF all portions of the income tax law
requiring corporations to collect taxes at
their source.

ROOF DANCING

Dancing in the woods was the old
manner in the classic times, and
mythology tells of the worship thus
paid by the pagans to the gods. The
poets sang of it The priests of Mars
were the principal dancers in the
sacred rites to that deity. There was
also the religious dancing alluded to
in the Old Testament, as where
David danced before the ark to ex-
press his joy and that of his people,
and there were the dances of the
Druids round the altars and the mys-
terious stones.
Never, perhaps, in the history of
the world was dancing more popular
than it is today-not even in the
pleasant times when in England,
Ireland, and France the people
danced on the green. Oliver Gold
smith, travelling on foot, paid his
way by playing for the dancers on
his flute. In the spring and summer
evenings the young lads and lassies,
in innocent mirth, footed it on the
grass.
Those gentle and unsophisticated
customs have passed. Dancing on
hotel roofs IS amid brilliant lights,
lovely flowers, and great palms, and
to the exquisite music of an Orches-
ira of strings. Hot as the air may
be in the streets below, it is always
cool in those dreamy and enchanting
elevations, which, rising almost to
the stars, do not seem to belong to
earth at all.

THE WONDER-PROCES-
SION.

Wonders of invention and science
tread nowadays so close on each
others heels that the world has
hardly time to make appraisal of the
newest marvel before it is crowded
aside by the succeeding one, which
in turn is privileged to make hur-
ried bow and hasty exit from the
spotlight.
Just the other day we read that
the last link had been completed,
cut somewhere in the Nevada desert,
IN the great copper circuit that now
spans the continent and connects
the telephone systems of New York
and San Francisco, so that the
Gufhamite may-at s1S the minute,
kfhe likes talk so well-converse di-
Set with his friend in San Francisco.
It is a great achievement; but
there's no time to think about it.
Today we read of the rapid perfec-
ZION of the wireless telephone, so
that band concerts are being trans
ported through the ether, from ship
to ship, distances of 200 and 300
miles, with no medium save the cleo
tric waves turned loose in the at
t1ospherel

POPULARIZING THE
PULPIT.

In Toronto yesterday the pulpits
of the city were occupied in most
cases by publicists and business men,
gathered there to attend a national
gathering of advertising clubs. They
preached about the relations of busi-
ness to morals, or of morals to busi-
ness, and they said many good, use
full, and thoroughly practical things.
In Philadelphia, on the same day.
the leading churches were turned
over to men of eminence in the medi-
cal profession, who were gathered
in the city for great convention. In
their very different realm. they
voiced the plea for intimacy and un-
derstanding between the church and
the humanitarian work of the men
who would both prevent and cure
the ills % the flesh.
No s hbath passes without notable
messages being delivered from the
pulpits of the country by laymen of
the law, the profession of statecraft,
the field of business, the ranks of
labor. The church is getting closer
and closer to the people, and in doing
so is proving wherein its ideals are
the best foundations on which to build
true success and largest usefulness
in every walk of life.

is being effected in the Senate, look
ing to pushing the opposition right
to the limit. One Senator, with
some modest repute as a long-dls-
tance talker, has declared that he
was able and willing to talk six
days against the measure; and he is
by no means alone in his willingness
to carry the fight to the last ex-
treme.
The House bill as passed carried
about S4O,OO0,000 of appropriations,
and project authorizations. extend
ing into the future, which commit
ted the Government to a vastly big
ger expenditure. Mr.. Frear figured
out the probable expense involved
in these authorizations, and con-
cluded that with appropriations and
authorizations the measure involved
total ultimate expenditure of about
S9S, 100000.
The whole system of apportioning
money and picking projects in the
river and harbor development is Dad.
and this is an excellent time to COM
pei attention to that badness, by
killing a bill that is full of pork for
members.
