WORK REVOLUTION IN PARIS SOCI Influence of American Colony Is Changing the Social System. WORK REVOLUTION IN PARIS SOCIETY The American colony in Paris is given the credit by close observers of French life of gradually changing the entire social system. The infusion of the modern notions that govern American women of refinement and wealth has had the effect of sweeping away many of the antiquated ideas that once closed the society of Paris to any but the exclusive who lived in the Faubourg St. Germain, and there maintained the worship of the ancient aristocracy. American women first stormed this cathedral, and gained admission. Now they have opened the way for others who are deserving, and as a result the American colony wields a remarkable influence in the world's chief pleasure city. Formerly the restrictions placed on young French people were so great that they had no liberty whatever. The damoiselle could not go to the theater till her parents had first seen the play, and decided that it was fit for her. Similarly she could go nowhere without a chaperon, and in the matter of her marriage she was never consulted till her parents had picked a man of proper means and family. Then she was allowed to have some say in arranging her trousselle. That was about all. But when Miss Columbia, with her breezy Western ways, took possession of Paris, she slowly changed all this. At first the French were frankly shocked by the liberties permitted her, but gradually they discovered that the girl from the young republic could be trusted, she might do things that shocked convention, but never DUCHESS DE LA ROUCHEFAUCOUL Who occupies a prominent social po DUCHESS DE LA ROUCHEAUCOULD, nee MISS MATTIE MITCHELL, Who occupies a prominent social position in the French Capital. could be charged against her any actual offense against the moral code. She became very popular, this bright, dashing child of the West. Frenchmen took her to wife, and her beauty won admiration. Before long she was upsetting old conventions, and Paris was finding out that it could learn much from the American color. Mme. Walden Pell was a great pioneer among American women who won a place of social importance in the brilliant life of the capital. When she died in 1902 Mrs. Mackay took her place as the American leader. It had been a long battle before Paris capitulated to Mrs. Mackay, but the splendor of her entertainments and the magnificent hospitality she dispensed eventually won their way. The sister of Mrs. Mackay, the Countess Telfener, is another brilliant entertainer, with a mansion on the Bois de Boulogne. The Countess de Trobriand, daughter of Mrs. Mary Mason Jones of New York, is an American hostess in Paris who maintains the traditions set by her mother. The count fought for the Union in the War of the Rebellion. The penchant of the comtesse is to entertain royally, and in the good room of her home she has a raised throne, so that kings in exile, of whom many are in Paris, may entertain in state worthy their rank. Another comtessite, Renée de Coetlogon, who was Miss Georgie Blake of Boston, holds a weekly salon-in her palace on the Bols de Boulogne, and here are to be met the foremost Fredholm in public life, as well as all prominent visiting Americans, who hold the open sesame. To a large extent the American embassy is an important factor in the social life of Paris. It could hardly be otherwise, for France is a country of deference of officialdom, and the representative of the American people is recognized as having a right to participate in all functions where his coun THE APPEAI trymen are hosts. The great personal popularity of all the men who, have filled the post in the last three decades has made this fortunate custom. Mrs. White, the newest incumbent of the race, is building up a popularity that has been the great as that of any her predecessors. There are three American duchesses in France, and they all take a prominent part in society. The Duchess de LAR IN PARISIAN SOCIETY. MRS. HENRY WHITE, POPULAR IN PARISIAN SOCIETY. la Rochefoucauc was Miss Mattle Mitchell, and her beauty was the talk of Paris when her noble husband first brought her to the capital to preside over his home. The Duchess de Dino, who was Miss Adele Sampson, resides on the Rue Reynaud. She was divorced from Frederick Stevens before she married the Marquis de Talleyrand-Pierigord, who in 1887 was created the Duc of which of the best known society of Paris and New York is to be seen at the levees of the dunes. The third duchesse, Choisel-Praslin, was a sister of De Councy Forbes of New York, and the daughter of one of New York's old-time best known merchants. Perhaps the best known untitled woman in Paris is Mrs. John Munroe, wife of a banker. She was Miss Hunt, and is now a widow. Mrs. Gilswold Gray, a sister of Mrs. James A. Burden of New York, has for many years made Paris her home, and entertained with a generous hand. Miss Fannie Reed is another hostess whose invitations never fail of acceptance. Mrs. George Law, the handsome New York widow of the noted millionaire, seldom goes out of Paris during the social season. Mrs. William K. Blount and Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt, said to be a bona fide member since they spend a large part of their time in Paris, and are welcomed everywhere. The latest addition to the ranks of titted women in France of American birth is the Marquise Renee d'Andigne, who was Miss Madeline Goddard of Providence, before her marriage at Christmas. A popular photographer is one who can make a woman feel satisfied with her face. M. MR8. WILLIAM K. VANDERBILT, A prominent member of the American colony in Paris. M. A man who makes his living in skirts, but remains a fine manly fellow of marked athletic talents, is now astonishing staged in the principal cities of Europe. He can make up to look like any actress; not even the beauty of Maxine Elliott is too much for him to duplicate. He can dance better than most of the premier dancers, and has a knowledge of dramatic art that aids materially in his impersonations. In many cities those who have seen his performances have found it difficult to believe that it was really a man and not a woman who was piercing before the footlights. The United States already knows that a wonderful impersonator, whose skill is great that he has raised imitation of him almost to an art. He signs himself: "Julian Dalton Eliteng, Harvard, 1802," and any one who doubts that when at Cambridge he was an athlete of some pretensions can get all the proof he wants by stirring up a little row with him. Two or three stage hands, mistaking the feminine figure all made up for the performance as the kind of easy mark that could readily be gued, had a rude awakening in the shape of beatings, the signs of which lingered long. The woman is just a trifle sensitive, and insists that be he makes his living by imitating the opposite sex he none the less retains in own strength and manliness the instant he puts aside the skirts and wig. Mr. Eliteng is the son of wealth, his father being a mine owner. When first he went on the stage in amateur ELTINGE, AS HE APPEA performances he had no thought that eventually he was to earn $400 a week by this kind of work. As a member of the Hasty Pudding club, which is Harvard's dramatic organization, he attained some slight fame as an important female characters, though the work he did then was purely in the nature of burlesque, and he not yet attempted to make himself appear like a really beautiful woman. Yearly the Boston cadets give an amateur performance that is one of the social events of the season. Eltinge, just out of college, studying in an architect's office, was invited to assist. Miss Lillian Russel, who was assisting in coaching the performance, suggested that with the right kind of make-up Eltinge would make an ideal heroine for the drama, which was known as "Miss Simplicity." Other members of the cast laughed at the idea for Eltinge weighs 174 pounds, and is of much athletic physique that it was hard to picture him looking the part of a sweet girlish young maiden, who must have a liberal allowance of pulchritude or make the play ridiculous. Mr. Eltinge, after a little bantering, said he was willing to try, and went through the ordeal of forcing his No. 7 foot into a No. 4. laddies' boot, and pulling his 30-inch waist into a 22-inch pair of corsets. Then he put on a witching wig, practiced a most wistful dance, his hosiery so carefully faked that the swimmer French skirt disclosed a dainty ankle that none would ever have picked for that of a man. A difficulty was encountered when it came to talking, for in place of the light, high voice that a woman has, Mr. Eltinge is a baritone. When he let out his notes they sounded so ridiculous coming from a dainty-skirted female that the show nearly broke up in the audience. Then a music teacher suggested that instead of trying to speak in a soprano voice, he master contralto. This was readily accomplished, and now thouh his voice is heavy, it could readily be mistaken for the rich tones of some especially deep contralto. At Harvard Elfinge had learned to dance, so there was no trouble about the music. Elfinge was the hit of the show, and the work was so much talked about that soon theatrical managers were bidding for his services, and when the figure went to the $300 mark THE FILM "THE LOST WEEK" BY JOHN HARRISON, A FILM BY JOHN HARRISON, A FILM BY JOHN HARRISON 1 THE IMITATION OF MISS MAXINE, ELLIOTT. it was more than he could stand. This launched Eltinge as a professional, and his progress has been made rapid. He succeeded well in this country, but Europe thought his act even more remarkable, and in London, Paris and Berlin he has been able to confront almost any price he wanted. Particularly was the make-up in imitation of Axine Elliott a success, for the beautiful Goodwin is known all over the Old World, not only from having appeared everywhere, but from the wide circulation given her photographs. The resemblance he gets to the actress is wonderful, and his photograph in profile can hardly be told from that of Miss Elliott. It is not alone in make-up and voice that Elliott can give the illusion of womanhood. He has turned his attention with microscopic care to every typically feminine action. He can sit down like a woman, get up from a chair like one, talk in the graceful manner of a lady of refinement, he understands the arts of flirtation and can make the best bewitching poses. Eltinge has been so successful in deceiving audiences that once in a while, usually on a wager, he makes attempts to deceive persons at close range. One occasion he went to a stage manager and asked for a place in the chorus. He is perfectly made up as the typical first, girl, and had no difficulty in getting his credit. Not until he had made his bargain and signed a contract did he reveal his identity. The signed contract was the proof on which he cashed his bet. THE NEW YORKER THE NEW YORKER THE BALLET THE NATIONAL ZOO INSTITUTION OF IMPORTANCE AT THE CAPITAL. Here Are Collected Fine Specimens of Animals Gathered from All Parts of the World—Place Like Natural Park. Not long ago Ras Makonnen, governor of Harrar province, Abysalia, after the manner of old-world potentates, presented to the United States a rare species of zebra. With the zebra came the lion and later a pair of ostriches was shipped from the same source. From Sir Reginald Wingate, the successor to Lord Kitchener as governor-general of Soudan, there has come another lion, and from the governors of states in Brazil, such as the governor of Para and the governor of Amazonas, the United States has accepted a number of South American animals. Within a fortnight, Mr. Nelson of the department of agriculture shipped to Washington two Mexican tiger cats and a number of rare forest birds, the gift of Carlos H. Jones of Campeche, Mexico. The international courties exchanged, it is not generally known what becomes of these animals. The future of many other beasts and birds which in one way or another, through consuls or departmental agents, come into the possession of the United States government is not usually followed up. To whose charge are they given, and how do they pass the rest of their lives? Twenty years ago they would have been turned over to some private menagerie or housed in crude wooden structures back of the Smithsonian institution in Washington, where zoologists and biologists could study them at close range. Perhaps the daily sight of these temporary structures had something to do with the purpose of the institution, took steps to carry out at that time to found on the outskirts of Washington a national zoological park. It was not an easy task to convince legislators why they should pay to "have the Nebraska ek and Florida alligators cooped up." In 1890, however, a bill was finally passed through congress to establish a zoological park for the "advancement of science and the instruction and recreation of the people," and also as a haven of refuge where those "native animals that have been treated with extinction might live and perpetuate their species in peace." The bill allotted $200,000 for the purchase of land and building. The few animals caged back of the Smithsonian institution were turned over to new quarters, and the administration of the national zoo became a branch of the institution's work. Now 167 acres of hilly, woodland two miles from the center of Washington is the final home of nearly every beast that comes into the position of United States government. There is a making it the only depository for such gifts, but as a matter of fact, very few are sent elsewhere. An idea of Secretary Langley, when he founded the zoo, was to furnish for the animals surroundings as nearly like their natural homes as possible. The idea was a new one at the time. The few menageries in the country had not the facilities to execute any such plan. He opposed any too evident artificiality in the architecture of the grounds. He wished the national zoo to be a natural park or very mode practicable. The large increase in him in this course, for our zoological gardens are two and a half times as large as the celebrated Thiergarten at Berlin and four times as large as the zoo in London. Since the national zoo was founded over 2,000 animals have been housed here and during the last few years the collection has averaged about 1,200 birds and beasts at a time. Apples and Peanuts for Lunch. Former Senator Francis M. Cockrell of Missouri, now a member of the interstate commerce commission, has regained his health sufficiently to partake of his usual noonday lunch—two apples and a sack of peanuts, which during his thirty years' official residence in Washington, most of the time in United States senator, were highly noonday meal. Senator Cockrell says he believes there is more nutritum in a sack of peanuts than in a pond of beefsteak and that they are easier to eat winter when he was stricken with illness his physician ordered him to drop apples and peanuts for a while. It was a hard 'task'. Recently when he was advised that he could resume his favorite bill of fare he was happier than a boy with his first pair of red top boots. White Paint for the White House. The annual cleaning of the White House is under way. A large force of painters is now at work on the structure, and pretty much all of the four months the President is absent will be utilized in renovating and cleaning the exterior of the old building. The walls of the White House were not painted last year. The experiment of washing with a highly recommended preparation was made. This was unsuccessful, as the wash seems to have cracked the paint and left the walls in bad shape generally wherever he been properly treated. These walls have been properly treated a great treatment of old old-fashioned bead used, and the White House again will appear in its glistening dress of pure white—Washington Post.

Distrust all who would have any one class of people, any other. Other republics have fallen because the unscrupulous have substituted loyalty to class for loyalty to the people as a whole. —President Roosevelt's speech at Little Rock, Ark. THE DEVIL ON THE MOUNTAIN. In a recent sermon, Bishop William F. McDowell of Chicago said: namf P. McDowell of Chicago said: "The industrial solution is not the real solution of the race question, for there must be a moral element in it. Several years ago I visited a theological school in Atlanta, where there were several hundred Afro-American students. Recently I revisited the same school and found that its membership had dropped to forty, while a medical school situated across the street had risen in membership in corresponding ratio. This I regard as an unfortunate symptom of the moral element in the present condition of the race question." THE APPEAL is constrained to call attention to the fact that the more we strive to maintain the supremacy and blood-purity of the Anglo-Saxon in this country, the more it seems to be threatened by various people who are not Anglo-Saxon. THE APPEAL is by no means presumptious as to pretend to know what an Anglo-Saxon is any more than other folks do, but it presumes that a Syrian is not of that race. For some time the Jews, Japanese, Chinese and other Asiatics have been de M. The design for the Hanna Memorial provides for a flight of steps several feet high, the lower forming a fifteen-foot square. From this the others will rise in a gradual ascent. The base, resting on a plateau formed by the steps, will be seven feet five inches by six feet four and one-half inches. On this the monument will rest. Above the whole will be a bronze statue of Mr. Hanna. Anglo-Saxonizing this country, and by Jeff Davis. The hill-billy faction now it appears that the Syrian has entered the ring, as shown by the recent engagement of a son of the desert to the daughter of an American millionaire. Now if the times are so out of joint in New York that a son of the desert can woo and win a millionaire's daughter, it sets a fearfully bad example for the lower classes. And there seems to be a principle in human nature which inclines to misecognition. For instance, Lafacid Hearn consorted first with an Afro-American can, then with a Japanese woman, Lord Beresford had a woman of the Afro-American race who claimed to be his common law wife, and who had to be bought off by his heirs. We have become somewhat accustomed to having the Jew, the Chinaman and the Jap contributing to the elimination of "Anglo-Saxon" supremacy, but when the Syrian joins in this diabolical work we can only exclam, Etu, Brute. Mr. Dugas, of Assumption Parish, La., recently said to a reporter: "We cannot get a supply either of skilled or unskilled workmen. The Negroes are deserting the plantations to work in the saw mills, the lumber camps, and on the railroads. They are the best class of laborers we have. I would not give one Negro for two Italians, when it comes to farm work, and it is not probable we can ever get immigrants who can take the places of the blacks on the Southern Plantations. The only trouble is we can't get enough of them." THE APPEAL notices that it has never met with an explanation fom a Southern planter of the reason why the Afro-American of the South prefers the saw mills; the lumber camps and the railroads to "de ole plantation," on which he used to spend such halcyon and jubilant days. When the Democratic rabble gets together to select its southern candidate for the Presidency it will make an irreparable error if it does not take into consideration the intens hostility that exists between the "hill-billies" and the "high-collared roosters" of the southern states. We designate these factions by the names so fity bestowed upon the factions 1930 M. B. HON. WILLIAM LORIMER. Chicago Popular Congressman Who is Working Hard Way to the Gulf. The plan for a $100,000,000 deep waterway free is now being bombed by the officials of every town a drainage canal, and the Mississippi river, according to Lovine's report of the project.

Chicago Popular Congressman Who is Working Hard for the Deep Water Way to the Gulf. The plan for a $100,000,000 deep waterway from Chicago to the gulf is now being beamed by the officials of every town on the Illinois river, the drainage of the Mississippi river, according to Congressman William Lorimer, the father of the gulf. "It has not reached the practical stage where success is assured," said the congressman after a conference with Mayor Busse to prepare for the convention of the Deep Waterway association, to be held at Memphis, Tenn., Oct. 1. President Roosevelt has promised to attend this convention, and it is said he is favorable to the project. In addition the governors of different states and mayors of the cities along the proposed waterway will be present, together with thousands of delegates from commercial and other asso- TWO TO ONE by Jeff Davis. The hill-billy faction has sworn vengeance against all representatives of the opposing faction and has carried it out in the cases of Wade Hampton, Clark Howell, Berry and Carmack, besides making a vicious swipe at Bailay. Now, if the Demented-orcracy should nominate a "high-collared rooster," he would lose the electoral vote of his own state to a dead, moral certainty; for the "red-necks" would rather vote for the old scratch than for him. The result, would be to split the Southern Democratic party into molecules, or perhaps atoms. So far as the Bishop's argument implies that the church, or anything else, will have any important influence in solving the problem of the Afro-American, that does not include endowing him with and protecting him in all the rights of an American citizen, it is merely a delusive fancy. The Afro-American is engaged in a battle for his civil and political rights as guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States, and will not be satisfied otherwise than by their enjoyment all over the country. When he sees the men who are robbing him of all these rights coming to him as a church and offering his salves and emollients and poults, he politely grins and inwardly reflects about the time when the Devil took the Savior up onto a high mountain and said, "All this will I give you IF——" The Board of Education of Nashville, Tenn., has announced that only Negroes who are born, bred and educated in the south will hereafter be appointed to positions in the public schools of that city as they are thought to be more in accord with southern traditions and sentiments. The foregoing is illustrative of the extent to which sectionalism is dying out in the South as we are assured it is by dough-faced journals. The fact is that the South never loses an opportunity to give the North a slap. The southern legislation against railroads is based upon the fact that those roads are regarded as Northern institutions which are levying tribute upon the south or draining its life blood. And much of the other Southern legislation is born of the same feeling. 1 Working Hard for the Deep Water the Gulf waterway from Chicago to the gulf every town on the Illinois river, the ter, according to Congressman William stage where success is assured," said with Mayor Busse to prepare for the relation, to be held at Memphis, Tenn., to attend this convention, and it is in addition the governors of different the proposed waterway will be present, from commercial and other asso- J.

Chance, chief clerk of the Post-office Department, several months ago sent out to all the postmasters in the country a list of questions to be used in the preparation of the government "Blue Book," which is published every two years. One of the questions in the list was: "What are your marital relations?" The object of this particular question is to determine whether postmasters are married, single, widowed, or divorced. But some of the rural postmasters do not understand the object of the question. Mr. Chance today received several answers, in the person of several individuals, ordered to and lucid explanation of the status of their married life. One postmaster had his domestic affairs were "fine and dandy." Another, not so fortunate, replied, "Fairly middling." A third postmaster filled out a questionnaire about marital affairs with one word, "Hell." The National Baptist Convention will meet in this city September 11 to 16.

Fred Fearnot and Dick Merrill, fictitious heroes of the "Work and Win" and "Tip Top Weekly", juvenile literature, were, figuratively speaking, brought before Justice Barnard, of the District of Columbia Supreme Court. They were also questioned whether the marvelous achievements of these heroes of fiction, as told in the publications referred to, constitute information of a public character, and whether, therefore, the publications are privileged to mail transportation as second-class matter. Postmaster General Meyer on July 30, 1985, celebrated the deeds of Fred Fearnot and Dick Merrill entitled to the second-class rate. The publishers claim they are, and applied to Justice Barnard for an reinjection enjoining the Postmaster General from applying the third-class rates to the "Work and Win" series, to account the baseball activities of Fred Fearnot and the "Tip Top Weekly", which disqualifies Dick Merrill's heroic deeds. D. H. W. T. GREENER. One of the Most Scholarly Men of the American Race. D. H. W The Boys of the Family. According to some curious investigations conducted by English scientists oldest sons tend to be criminals and youngest sons paupers. A great many thousand school children and many family histories have been examined to yield these results. First-born children were found to be, as a rule, taller and heavier, with greater ability and endurance than the others. This is in accordance with the popular feeling in many countries that the oldest child is more likely to be the victim of special privileges. It is a well established fact that among men of genius an undue proportion are oldest sons. Royal Bombadier. King Edward has sanctioned the appointment of Henry Field of Windsor as bombardier to fire royal salutes in the Long Walk, Windsor park, on the birthday anniversaries of the royal families and other special occasions. The office is an ancient one. The cannon which are used in firing the salutes are the bombadier's own property, which he keeps stored at his dwelling house, together with powder. This he provides out of the sum paid for firing the salutes of twenty-one guns. Concentrated Beer. A Dianne engineer, after several years of experiment, has evolved an invention for concentrating beer in a hard substance which, dissolved in water, gives a good beverage. One and a half kilos contain eightteen liters after dissolution. This beer remains sound for six months. The inference is that the beer is prepared with success different sorts of beer, including ale and stout. TJ Ripen Bananas: An English electrical expert has discovered a means of ripening bananas to order. The bunches are hung in an air'ight glass case, in which are a number of electric lights. The artificial light and heat hasten the ripening process in proportion to the number of lights turned on. Records have been made which enable the operators to make delivery of any quantities at any agreed date. Not So Cheap as All That.
