has not the confidence of the chamber ask for vote of confidence After the premier had concluded, the attacks on the ministry were resumed by Deputy Charles Chaumet.
 M Chaumet said that if the Salonki expedition was in the same hands as that to the Gallipoli peninsula the chamber had reason to distrust it's results. Professor Painleve and M. Renaudel a socialist member, expressed themselves as not satisfied with the governments ut terances, which they regarded as made quate to enable the members to bear their responsibilities.
 M. Renaudel concluded by asking the chamber to go into secret session so tha [ a letter concerning the Dardanelles, in the possession of Professor Painleve, might be read for the information of the mem bers. While the vote was being verified the members crowded into buffcts for re freshment
 The proposal for secret session was found when the vote had been verified to have been defeated by S03 against to 200 for.
 The resolution of confidence was then proposed in the following form:
 "The chamber confident in the govern
 ment. and approving it's declarations, passes to other business
 The vote as it proceeded was followed with great interest
 Theophile Delcasse has been one of the
 foremost French statesmen during the
 last 25 years, having to his credit. above all else, the inspiration which led to the
 formation of the Anglo-French entente cordiale. He was also credited with an effective influence in the settlement of diff ferences between Russia and Great Brit
 ain, making possible the formation of the triple entente.
 As foreign minister in former oabi- net M. Delcasse aroused the bitter hos tility of Germany. where it was believed
 his policy aimed at the political isolation of that nation. His efforts to extend French influence in northern Africa in particular was regarded with distrust in Germany and his Moroccan policy leading to the crisis of 1905 between Paris and Berlin, resulted in his resignation, after holding office for Il years. Subsequently he filled other public positions. and in August of last year was recalled to the foreign affairs portfolio
 Colonel Driant, son-in-law of the late General Boulanger, speaking in the name of those fighting in the trenches appealed for national unity. "A feeling of uneasi- ness must not be allowed to spring up in the country" he said. No one could have more sympathy than for the foreign
 minister who was turned out by the Ger man Emperor a few years ago..
 This was a reference to the resignation of M Delcasse, from the cabinet in 1905. which was said to be pleasing to Ger many. The remark brought Eugene
 Etienne to his feet in strong protest.
 sI was a minister in the same cabi- net with M. Delcasse." he cried, and can
 not allow it to be said that he was sub jected to such humiliation. His colleagues would not have suffered it. M. Delcasse

Kempf's Model City, the automatic marvel of the world" is without doubt one of the most interesting and unique attractions that has ever been shown in this city. It is certainly one of the stellar features of the Con T. Kennedy shows at the fair.
 The city, as its name implies, is modern in every respect; office buildings, churches, schools. postoffice, courthouse, city hall. bungalows. railroads, street cars, jitneys; in fact, it would be easier to name the things not there than to try to tell those that are there.

l Once in awhile something with the clever touch in the way of musical l shows drifts out of New York and
 makes Birmingham. This happened last
 night at the Jefferson when Victor Her berts delightful operetta, "The Only Girl" was presented before d fair sized
 audience which, before the final cur
 tain, made up in enthusiasm what it
 lacked in numbers
 Barring rather dull first act, which
 Is short. quite short, there is much that
 is fine in what remains, and the second
 act has just that artistic touch in it's lines to make the action amusingly spicy without being banal Of course, as novelty there is something of a plot. Not much, to be sure, but a plot that persists in creeping out of the maze of satire that Librettist Henry Blossom ever so gently polles at the matrimonial knot. The persistence of the plot final ly lands 'the girl" who found Plato an unsound theorist, in the embrace of the hero, just as he had planned in the midst of pale blue spotlight and with the orchestra, especially the first vio- lin. tremulously rendering the love .neiHe oI the operetta. In this par ticular case the love theme, ''the girl the hero and the pale blue light all make bewitching ef- rect that lingers-especially the tune- ful song, You're the Only Girl for Me'-in a memory that cannot over look ever so many good things about this musical play that comes as a de- cided novelty for so early in the sea- son.
 "The Only Girl" has an ambitious score by Victor Herbert. though it lacks the tunefulness of other Herbert sue cesses although there is a waltz num- Der that cannot be forgotten It is excellently mounted and the girls" for there Is none of the chorus species, are comedy, and in their few dances display much that is temperamental indeed
 As for the principals, they seem to be all principals, still less criticism can be offered. Franklyn Farnum has the lead ing role and is more than good. The feminine honors are about equally di- vided between Miss Leona Stephens as Patsy and Miss Edna Munsey as 'the girl" Miss Stephens is the life of the performance and has several lines and songs that impresses her personality on the people in front. Miss Munsey is more sedate, but her beauty and poise
