FRENCHMANLAUDS
ENGLISH ARCHIVES
Professor FeuilIerat Declares
They Form Great Heritage
for Americans
CALLS RECORDS PRICELESS

A great heritage for Americans lies
In the ancient and priceless archives
Of England. Prof Albert Feuillcrat
professor of English literature in the
University Of RcnnCs, France. declared
yesterday afternoon in a lecture at
Houston Hall. University of pennsyI-
vania. In the Office of records in Lon
don will be found invaluable informa
tion for American students Of various
arts and sciences. he said. hut these
are Of no use whatever II the rroper
method is not used in searching the
archives.
Professor Fpuillcrat is a member Of
the French university council. He was
sent to this country few months ago
BY the French Government as an eN-
change professor to Yale with further
mission to visit the chief universities
Of this country. He is a doctor of let .
ters of Paris and an honorary doctor OF
Louvain and Manchester. England. lie
is at present vice president of the
Shakespeare Association OF London
Noted English Scholar
His recent "Tife of John Lily the
dramatist. and his excellent edition OF
documents on the early English theatre
are among the works of the lecturer
He is recognized as one of the first
scholars in English literature in France
and lectures fuently in French or Eng
lish.
Private collections Of archives in Eng
land are not good generally, although
an attempt to search them brings an
unbounded hosnitality on the part OF
the owners. Professor Fcuillerat stated
These private collections are not com
plete and are not systematic and search
ing through them is almost lmpossl-
BILE
The Inconvenience and annoyance
which students have caused the owners
of private collections OF Eng ,ish records;
manuscripts and arChievCs has r"SuIteG
in their being turned over to tn" koYa!
Record Office from which thcy VIII
probably never again be taken
-Four Groups OF Archives
There are four groups of archives to
be found In the Record Office. They
are first those of the superior courts OF
law. These include the court of chan
CELERY. with records Of ordinary juris.
diction with the actions by and against
officers of the crown and the cXtraor-
binary jurisdiction. There is also the
court of common pleas and itS vaIuao'e
records. and the court of the cXchequcr.
In the latter court the students or th..
drama have found great stOrehouseS OF
valuable information.
The second group of records are thos"
Of special and abolished ju"iS9i'tlon.
The third group Of state and depart.
ment records and these offer any amount
Of material for students Of literature
and historians.
Professor Feuillerat's advice was
never to accept abstracts Of records. but
to insist on seeing the original or II
photograph thereof.
"The source of English documents is
almost inexhaustible. ." the lecturer
stated. Record sesrChers are like cX-
plorers and they start with great hopes
but they often run the risk Of diSap-
pointmpnt However diligence and sys-
tenn will bring what is sought.

says that the French people are rap
idly getting on their feet, tho they are
unable to do much trading with the
United States on account of the low
value of their franc. The Fnech are
doing considerable trading with Ger
many because there is no exchange.
Mr. Camire says that it was un-
fortunate that the American army
goods sold for so low a price to the
French after the war. He says the
French who are very shrewd business
men. offered but low figures for the
goods that were left and the U. S.
wishing to get rid of the goods, sold

N|N0T'S POPULATION
AROUND 1880 MARK
Census viii Show a Population Slight.
ly Under 10000 With Not Every
one Counted--Sunday's Drive
Nets Many Names.

The Minot Association oe Commerce,
with B. E. Stewart as general chair
man, made a very effective census
drive between the hours of two and
four o'clock Sunday afternoon, round
ing up between 1000 and l,500 addi-
tional names that are now enrolled
on the census list of our city, 1t had
been realized that the work had not
been done very thoroly previously and
those who were in charge Of taking
the Minot census worked hand in hand
with the assistants from the Assccia-
tion of Commerce. The city was di.
vided into fifteen districts and each
district was diveded into blocks, a
chairman being placed in charge of
each block. This reduced the work to
q minimum, and allowed the enumcr-
ators to make a very fair canvass.
Chairman Stewart explains that in his
oninion there are still a good many
who were not counted. A number
were not at home Sunday afternoon
and there are always a good many
who are taking their siestas at those
hours on Sunday and who could not be
aroused with little less than an earth
quake.
The Independent is not going to
apologize for the rather disappoint-
ing figures denoted by the census.
Minot, had been unofficially credited
with a population Of $4,000. This
figure is too large. Our readers will
remember a few weeks ago that the
Independent predicted that the census
would show slightly more than 10000
population. The figure will be a
little less than that, probably between
II 300 and 1880. We believe that
with a complete census taken, this
city would show population of some
thing over $4,000.

schools in the United States.
