One Of his colleagues devised some

Inti-RObbery Derices

There are hopes Tor Commissioner
Enright and rays Of promise for crook
ridden New York. Science, which has
rendered US 50 many services has now
attacked new problem. Inventors are
pitilcssly hunting the burglars Of Paris.
Many are now in search of means OF
defending the stores and banks against
criminal attacks. One Of these most
curious inventions consists of a pedal
situated in the interior Of the store.
The burglar, if he watches the hands Of
the man, cannot at the same tins see
where he puts his feet.
Then the pedal starts an electrical
clockwork and at the same time an
illuminated plate calling for the police
appears on the outside of the store.
Among the other inventions there Is
an overcoat with a special pocket for

Gallant Defence Offered

to attempt a sudden attack on our
ports Of the North Sea, the Channel
and the Atlantic. This opportunity
was gone for good"
On August 6 an agreement was made
between France and England, under
whose terms the British Admiralty wa S
to direct naval operations except in the
Channel and the Mediterranean.
The object which caused the French
Naval Ministry in Paris to order the
small second French squadron into
hypothetical and unequal battle with
the German high seas fleet at the be-
ginning OF August was the knowledge
of the German plan of attack. This,
declares the former minister, was a
combined land and sea operation,
which succeeded nowhere, though for
some unaccountable reason the Ger
mans failed to utilize the sea feature
Germany hoped, says Mr.. Leygues, by
the sudden occupation of Belgium,
first, to turn the heights of the Meuse
and force Frances northern frontier;
second, to assure herself naval bases
from which she might hold or defeat
Great Britain. Calais, Dunkirk, Ant
werp and Ostend had the same i'm
portance in German plans as Amiens,
Belfort, Toul and Verdun. France
was the principal enemy because she
was the main obstruction to the estab-
lishment Of a German hegemony. 1t
was Frances resistance that Germans
front, despite the Importance of Rus
sia. there was no hurry. On the West
ern front she sought the victory that
would make her master Of the world.

PARIS, April %.
TN HE whole world has heard of the
gallant fight Of the numerically
inferior Belgian forces against
German armies that flowed
Ike waves into Belgium; but neither
the world nor more than one in ten
thousand Frenchmen has yet heard
the exactly contomporaneous story Of
how the light squadrons of the French
navy steamed forth to offer their lives
as check to the progress of the Ger
man high sea feet down the North
Sea. This stirring incident was billed
with more dramatic possibilities than
anything that then had happened at sea
since Trafalgar.
1t required the Washington confer
ence and the framing of the naval
treaty to drag this brave story out of
the archives Of the French Ministry of
Marine in Paris.
Frenchmen in general know very lit
Tie about their navy. Thanks to an un-
communicative Ministry Of Marine, the
world in general knows practically
nothing Of the French efforts at sea-
incidents which, if published freshly,
would have gained for the sea forces
of France praise as high as that of
the heroes of Nerdun.
George Leygues, president Of the
Foreign Affairs Commission of the
Chamber of Deputies, former Premier
and Minister of the French Marine
during the war, stirred by adverse
ceived in America, has now unmasked
the ministry archives Frenchmen will
soon pick up a booklet from their
newsstands which NJ. Leygues entities:
lies Marines de France" 1t is hither-
TO unpublished history. 1t gives the
story of how the French sailors un-
hesitatingly took station to throw
themselves across the path of the
kaiser's overwhelming superior navy.

The Mysticism, of Numbers

1t "just happened So of course, but
all the same there are some curiously
significant results to be obtained from
combinations Of dates in the lives Of
the late exEmperor Charles II and the
ex-Emperor william II. Thus, in the
case of Charles, if we add together the
numbers representing the year Of his
birth, 1887; that of his accession to the
throne, 1916; the years of his reign,
2, and his age at the end of his reign,
81, we get 1886, which, divided by 2,
gives 1918, the year of his downfall.
So in the case of William add the year
Of his birth. 1859; the date of his &C
cession, 1888; the length of his reign,
80, and his age at the end Of his reign,

HOio Sultan Escaped >Arrest

In 1913 Fuad I, the new King OF
Egypt, was an unsuccessful candidate
for the Albanian throne. after having
been colonel of artillery in the Italian
army. When he became Sultan of
Egypt his role under the protectorate
Of England was not always easy to

One day messenger of the British

The battle Of the Pas de Calais, as
it doubtless would have been known in
French so much for the protection of
England as to prevent the German
fleet from taking the French Channel
and Atlantic ports which the Germans
were fighting for by land. 1t was nat
urally assumed from knowledge of the
Teutons' plans that they would combine
a land and sea operation for these po-
sitions, the possession of which would
have changed the whole character of
the war. The first sea fight Of the
war, as it would have been, was also
visualized to prevent the German fleet
from cruising southwark, commanding
the Mediterranean and cutting France
off from her colonies Of Northern
Africa.
The French feet reached its battle
position in the Pas de Calais at 4
o'clock on the afternoon of August 3.
At p. m. three divisions of British
torpedo boats left the harbor Of Dover
and rapidly crossed the strait toward
the Flanders banks. One or two passed
close to the French cruiser Jean

the crews ranged themselves on deck
and mutually cheered what was not yet

British Were Ready to Aid

The consequences must be imagined
but possibly it might have been such
battle at sea as the Belgians were then
fighting on land.
Soon after this gallant gesture by
the French navy England entered the
war and British ships took over the
guardianship of the Pas de Calais. The
French light squadron, under Admiral
Rouyer-now reinforced by the Brit
ish-then took q position at the south

Carpenters Consolation Stakes

His countrymen are wondering how
much money Carpenter now has left
from the 100000 he got as a result
of his match with Dempsey. One
fourth Of this sum went to his man
ager, Deschamps. Of what remained
the American Treasury claimed almost
half. Carpenter therefore, came back
to France with $4,000 or $4,000, On
this amount the French Treasury
claimed 10000 francs. Now, the dol
lars are still in the bank. When Car
pentier got them they were worth II
francs. To-day the dollar is worth
less. Will Carpenter wait until the
dollar is again worth five francs to
convert them into French money?

Doubt Failure Of Idea
OF Absorbing the Jews

"Belloc," Lord Beaverbrook adds
may say what he likes about the
Victorian idea Of absorbing the Jews
and turning them to the profit Of a
common citizenship. He says it has
failed. l doubt if it has failed. On the
contrary, in the upper and middle
classes at least, fusion has been the
rule and strict segregation the excep-
ton. This truth would be discovered
the moment it became necessary to de-
eide, on the new Ghetto plan, who was
Jew and who was not"
"The London Times" reviewer, again.
while he admits that the present dis
turbed period, with its great Jewish
migrations, is certainly unfavorable to
assimilation, holds that it is possible
to argue that, if international equiii-
brium is restored, tho process OF
absorption will once again be &C
celerated
But anyway there IS at least one
Jew in London who Is grateful 70
Hilaire Belloc. He is Harry Green, the
jewish comedian, who has made one o.
the big hits Of the theater season with
the play, "Welcome Stranger" Harry
Green has seen tho chance of a good
advertisement in Beloc's book, and he
has gone to it. The evening news
papers carried in large type this week
the following notice: "Mr. Hilaire
Belloc. I have just heard about your
new book. You are too serious You
need few good hearty laughs. I am
leaving two seats at the Lyric Theater

you to see Welcome Stranger

that was the first that most Londoners
heard about the book anyway.
