ORCHESTRA AND QUARTETTE
ENTERTAINED.
Mrs. Beanland. Delightful. Hostess
Friday Evening.

Last Friday evening Mrs. E. D.
Beanland delightfully."- entertained her
orchestra and quartette at her home.
It was an enjoyable affair from
the beginning to the end and
was in every respect up to-
the high standard of Mrs. Beanland's
parties for the unsteady inclined boys.
Misses Shirley and Wortley Kirk
wood and Miss Georgia Duncan were
present, and served, (more ways than
one) to make the party the merrier.
The whole evening went off as if a
program had been prearranged, eve
ry one doing a musical stunt the key
being anything but B natural. The
orchestra, having brought their in
struments along, rendered several of
their best selections, which they ex-
pect to play on the trips planned for
this year. Solos by Messrs. Monte
lepro, Harry and WATSON plus two
beautiful piano solos by Mr.. Bean
land were features which were especi-
ally enjoyed
The quartette also gave those pres
ent line on what they are going to
sing at the Girls college this year
(oh, boyD by singing several songs
from their repertoire, old songs which
they gave at Blue Mountain last year,
more than one member of the orcilest-
IA heaved a deep sigh.
A delicious buffet supper was serv-
ed by the young ladies, consisting of
a plate lunch and crumb toddy. Mrs.
Beanland knows the way to boys
hearty This was undoubtedly the
most interesting and absorbing feat
ure of the evening.
The evening was indeed a delight
full one, and the orchestra and quart
cite can never forget those happy
hours. Mrs. Beanland is certainly
standing by and working with her
orchestra and quartette, and a year
of good work and jolly trips is as
sured.

BEING PRESIDENT

BY HENRY WOOD.

Omitted Press STAFF Correspondent
PARIS. March 27.-There is every
reason 90 believe that the private
fortune of Madame Deschanel which
IS reported 20 be very large, is going
20 suffer some terrific assaults dur
ing the seven years term OF her hus-
band as president Of France.
In fact. il Is even 10 be presumed
that unless Monsieur and Madame
Deschanel hadn't figured that the
honor was well worth paying high

Clemenceau have II.

The salary and allowances now
fall far shorter than do those in
America for the unfolding Of the
dignity and position Of president.
First OF all France pays her chief
magistrate as salary 300, 900 francs
year Then he has an additional
allowance OF 100000 francs a year
for his household expenses and an
other 100000 francs for entertain

Besides these allowances, the only
other things furnished him are his

DANCE HALLS OF
PARIS RESTORED
DESPITE POLICE
Americans Gain Control of
Principal ParIors and
French Are Perturbed.

PARIS March 7.-Americans
are gradually gaining control Of the
principal dancing palaces Of Paris.
and there are murmurs OF discon-
tent coming from the French dane
ing managers.
The Americans got their foothold
during the war. when dancing was
officially banned. but when several
elardestine places were operated by
widely separated parts OF the CITY.
They were for the most part. former
members OF American ambulance
units serving with the French army.
who combined a slight knowledge OF
French and French business affairs
with a considerable knowledge Of
how 10 run a dancing place that
would attract a crowd Of "all-night-
ers. The police made nightly de-
sends upon these dancings and
closed them. only 10 learn that they
had reopened 10 another place 60
few nights later. Any empty pri-
vate house with a large ballroom or
several rooms connecting with each
other was speedily converted into a
rendezvous for the early morning
tango fiends.
Apollo Was First.
" men udlANAAS was olllC4dl41 rem 70
stated Harry Pilcer put the Ameri-
cans on the map by opening a gay
dancing place IN the Apollo theater
Pncer's success was so great that
dancings began springing up all over
the city. Moving picture houses.
theaters, skating Kinks and even pri-
yate houses were turned into ball
rooms. and one enterprising youth
was about TO convert an abandoned
church into a fox trOt parlor when
the -parishioners interviewed and
stopped him.
The American jazz band stepped
right in along with the American
dance promoters. The Washington
Square Palace. a big dancing hall
in the Champs Elysee district, was
opened, with several Americans as
part owners. Another dancing hall
with a special Chinese ballroom
sprang TO life in the Rue St Dddier,
also owned by Americans

When I tell you that I ate heart

dignity That French presidents
have not been able 10 save much out
OF these allowances IS demonstrated
oy the fact that former Pres't Lou
bet can be daily seen taking a street
car instead Of riding IN his automo-
bile while former Pres't FalIieres
VINO although blessed with thrifty
habits anc large private fortune IS
known 10 have come out consider
ably poorer
Finally eX-Pres't Poincare has re-
turned 20 his former professions OF
senator and attorney in order 20 re-
plete the inroads made In his pri-
vate fortune during his term as pres
ident.
The total allowance 20 the French
president are 100000 francs a
year or 100000 francs a month. Out
Of this he must pay every cent Of
his domestic expenses including the
large retinue Of servants. secretaries
and numerous other employees He
must keep up the state automobiles
and the state stables filled with hor-
ses for drawing the state carriages
when the state visitors are his guests
He must also pay all the expenses
Of state dinners which are numerous
and large. These dinners are usual
ly served by some one Of the leading
restaurateurs OF the city. Before the
war they cost about 30 francs
plate Now 40 francs won't buy an
ordinary luncheon in one Of the bet
ter-class OF cafes and restaurants Of
Paris
The cost Of uniforms and liveries
for the servants is also big item.
Before the war the uniform for one
Of the 0utriders on the presidential
coach cost 315 francs for the coat
the waistcoat cost 22O francs and
the yellow leather breeches 1876
francs. The cost Of these now has
unquestlonably tripled.
The presidents charity allowances
and contributions also make up one
n his heaviest items. Deschanel in
augurated his term Of office by CIV
ing 10000 francs TO the poor of Paris
Next day he Visited the military hos
pitfalls and left 500 francs for the
wounded The demands made on
the French president for charity are
enormous and owing to the tradi
tions esta blished when France was
"a monarchy and the head OF the
state was most generous, he Is
obliged 20 respond literally.
If. as has been announced Mon
sieur and Madame Deschanel plan
to re-establish the famous dinners,
receptions and social events for
which the Elysee palace was form
erly noted. il is expected that the
state allowances will hardly be more
than a meagre half OF their eXpen-
