Costly NEWSPAPERS.

A Belgian banker, who has been
permitted by the German administra-
ton to come to Paris on business
connected with relief work, states that
the chief luxury of life in Brussels
is the purchase of London and Paris
Newspapers, which can be had easily
if one will pay the exorbitant price
demanded.
The times of London is worth S6.4O,
The Temps of Paris $40, the Matin

papers $3.50. The penalty for being
caught with one of these papers is
not severe and is usually not enforced
against persons of good standing, hut
the penalty for the agency which dis
tributes the papers would be very
severe. The German officials have had
no success in running down the dis
tributors. so it is thought that per-
haps German soldiers have their hand

MUNITIoN TOWN OF FRANCE
lie creusot and the Immense Ordnance
Factories Started There by
the Schneiders.

LIE Creusot is the center of Frances
war munition works. Like the famous
Krupp works of Germany, LIE Creusot's
vast ordnance factories owe their
origin to the organizing and inventive
genius of one family-the Schneiders.
At the outbreak of the war the
Schneider Iron works employed more
than $1,000 workmen and their great
shops, covering hundreds Of acres of
ground, were connected by network
of nearly 40 miles of railroad tracks.
Since the war this plant has been
Geographic society bulletin.
lie Creusot owes its Importance in
the manufacturing and foundry indus
try to the fact that it is in the center
of one of the richest coal and iron min
ing districts of France. The coal beds
of this region were discovered in the
thirteenth century, but it was nor un-
till 500 years later, in 1774, that the
first iron works were established. Sixty
years later the Schneiders, Adolphe
and Eugene, established their first
workshops here, and the little hamlet,
formerly known as Charbonniere, be-
gan to grow. In 1S41 it was a town of
1000 people; just before the war there
were $4,000 inhabitants, nearly half of
whom were employed in the armOr-
plate factories, the gun shops, the To-
comOtive works and the ordnance
plants. 1t was one of the Schneiders.
incidentally, who revolutionized war
ship armament in 1876. Up to that time
the most progressive nations used
wrought iron for protective armor on
their ships. Schneider proved the
superiority of steel in resisting the
penetrating power of projectiles.
LIE Creusot is admirably situated
with respect to the French frontier
for while it is not SO far from the fir.
ing line as to occasion undue delay in
the transportation of munitions, it is
sufficiently removed to be well beyond
the danger zone. 1t is 135 miles, in
an airline, southwest of BeIfort, 8
fortress of the first class on the Alsace
front, and is 175 miles south of Yer
dun.
While LIE Creusot has practically nc
historical associations of it's own, Il
is only few miles southeast of Autun

mans, celebrated for it's ancien
schools.

The young superintendent of the

she taught them prayers. Later they
