IXIIES IN FRANCE

Seven members Of the exilcd imperial fam fly of Austria Hungary are now in France About Il month ago four sons of the former emperor and empresss family Of eight arrived at the little inland health resort of Argeles Gazost in the Iiautes ryrences department. The former Empress Zta has now joined them with her two youngest children. the Princesscs Elizabeth and Charlotte. She Is using tho name of Madame de LusaCe, taken from Lu- sace or Lousitz, q small place in south Ger many of which her husband was margrave. She is permitted to remain for six months, with liberty to move between her Spanish home nt Loquetio and Argees for herself, her children and suite.
 Suite" seems rather an exaggerated term to apply 10 the former royal family's present companions The one-tmc empress has one lady-in waiting, Baroness de Pont. and the four boys were accompanied by the Countess erness and a maid.
 The eldest son, Prince Otto remains at To- duotio, with the second child, Princess Ade- laide, to keep him company. The reason given was that he vas not considered strong enough 10 travel but this is believed 10 be q diplomatic excuse, as the French authorities wished to keep the boy from leaving Spain. Any report that he is travelling has serious reaction In Hungary. where a strong party would like to try to put him on his fathers throne.
 The cmpresss party pass most Of their time in the magnificent park of Angeles. They at tend mass daily and from time 10 time they go by train to Iourdes. which Is about 2 miles away, and attend services in of the many churches of that world famous miracle city.

FEW WOMEN DRIVERS

The amnzemcnt With which q woman auto mobile driver is regarded in Germany, wom- ems organizations say, is due 10 the fact q person has to be a mechanic to obtain permit to drive Q car.
 The motor vehicle law prescribcs a written and oral examination with two trial trips 'or all applicants for a drivers license. Many women and some men who cannot tell the dt1- ference between a carburctor and a radiator must take 6 two-weeks course in automobile mechanics before their application will be considered.
 Women's clubs which are demanding mod ifcation of the law that q mechanic is not necessarily q safe driver. They point to stats- tics for 1925 which show that with only 200,- GOO automobiles In Berlin, 143 persons were killed and 1899 injured in 1l.l56 traffic acci- dents record which is said to be unsurpassed by any other city.

MODELS TOO COSTLY

Some of the most distinguished feminine members Of the French nobility will be dis played to the public gaze at the Spring Salon. and all because of the high cost of artists models
 For the ladies of 'tho noble faubourg" who go in for painting, rich as they are in talent and armorial crcss, are today poor in paper francs. Instead Of hiring models at 50 francs q sitting, they are asking the great ladies of their acquaintance 10 pose for them as per sona favor
 Time was when many q beautiful and shape ly model would pose in the most trying pos lures for one franc an hour. The advent of a horde of American, English and Scandna- Yian artists equipped with exchange proof money, put an end to that. In 1919 the price for half a days posing was 10 francs.

 i The Afro -American's interest in the world court will be in the hands of Senator Blease or some one with the spirit of Tilman. Vardaman, Watson, Jefferson Davis and Cal houn.

P. M.,-(Special to the Leader)
Before an audience Of more than
1000 people of Ebert and adjoining
counties here today ]. j. Brown
charged that Eugene Talmadge was
put in the race against him for Com
missioner of Agriculture by Albert
and Clark Howell and w. T. Ander-
son as advocates of state bond is
sue in the hope that the bond advo-
Gates can get charge of the agricul-
tural department to further bond
legislation. This Talmadge denied in
his reply, asserting that his friends
had advised him as far back as Christ
mas he could not beat Brown.
Both debates followed about the
same lines as those covered in the
McRae debate, Talmadge meeting
in the same manner, with documents,
the explanations made by Mr.. Brown
about the multiplicity of inspectors
and their withholding from prompt
settlement oil inspection funds. The
applause for Talmadge was somewhat
more liberal than that for Brown and
he was carried away from the stand
on conclusion by a number of men.
The meeting was presided over by
Judge Raymond Stapleton.
