Ttic most talked about book Usuc < l from
the London press this season Is a great COO
pane volume entitled , "The History of So
cialism , " by lloalrlce and Sidney Webb.
Tlie London Times says of tills book :
"Mr. and Mrs. Webb's book Is a masterly
piece of work , and even those who utterly dis
sent from their underlying assumptions can
not afford to disregard the facts and figures
they li.ivo accumulated , "
While the. Dally Telegraph Is of the opinion
that "from many points of view It deserves
to be attentively considered , not only because -
cause of the conspicuous ability with which
It has been written , but owing to the vast
amount of labor It has Involved , and the
extraordinary accumulation of facts , which ,
In the course of eomo COO pages , It has epito
mized. The whole subject Is laid out by
the authors In a masterly and comprehensive
manner. "
Ileatrlco Webb , whose name stands first on
the title page , first become ttirnous as
Beatrice Totter , and Is the richest and most
beautiful woman * In the ranks of the so
cialists. It Is said Henry James had her In
mind when ho wrote "Tho Princess Cas-
eamasslma , " and that she also Inspired
William IJIack's "Sunrise. "
She Is the youngest of the nlno "Pretty
I'otters , " as they were called In London
Bomo years since nlno sisters , all dark and
handsome and the children of a wealthy
Lancashire manufacturer , and of the woman
ivjio was the most Intimate friend Herbert
Spencer has ever known. Her mother was a
woman of remarkable learning. Though
giving birth to ten children ( the only son died
young ) and being the very , competent head of
her household , she had a profound knowledge
of Greek and Latin , read her bible In He
brew and was the chosen Intellectual com
panion of George Eliot as well as of Herbert
Spencer. She was , however , decidedly ec
centric , one of her horrors being of any ex
cess of flesh. She looked upon being fat
as only short of being criminal , and declared
It was Impossible for her to cither like or
respect a person who had any excess of
adipose tissue. It Is said that no one ever
eaw a fat person In her house. She al
lowed herself and her children only a fixed
number of ounces of food a day , and having as
certained what weight of food was necessary
to health , she was of the opinion that an
other mouthful more was mere grossness and
not to be permitted.
Whatever one may think of this theory ,
It Is certain that the nlno daughters grew up
tall , < wholesome , ruddy and beautiful. They
Tvero all women of superior Intellect and
marked talents , and the eight elder sisters
married men distinguished In law , tnedl
cine , literature and politics.
The youngest , Ilentrlce , was easily the
most gifted and beautiful of them all , and
Hr. Spencer was so delighted with her In
telligence.'that he made her education his
special charge and strove In every way to de
velop all her capacities. It was supposed ,
her health , beauty and brains being con-
nldercd. that she would probably make the
most brilliant marriage of all the sistcra ,
and might look for a coronet. It Is certain
tliat1 she was a 'great belle for several sea-
eons , and had distinguished offers , but be
fore she was 23 she was suddenly seized with
a disgust for her brilliant surroundings and
began to visit and work In the slums nf * Sast
London.
She became excited over the condition of
sonio of the workers , and finally putting on
the. garments of a worklnrj girl , sought em
ployment In the shops where undergarments
were made. Her experiences were carefully
noted , and Blip tried a week or ten days In
each of four or five trades. At the end of
, | ier explorations she wrote a trenchant story
'of , her experiences , giving the exact figures
she had been able to accumulate , sent It
to a leading rovlcw and went away for a.
walking tour In Switzerland to clear her
mind and lungs of the foul airs and sights
of the East End sweating shops.
Her , article was printed at once , and all
England was aghast. Parliament took .the
matter up and appointed a committee to In-
vestlcato her charges ; with the result that
a whole series of laws were passed regu
lating the employment of labor by the "sweat-
icrs. " Miss Potter returned to England to
flnd herself famous , nut she refused to re
turn to her old life or associations. She
joined the ranks of the socialists and de
voted herself to the task of overturning
the present constitution of society. ' All the
long-haired political refugees became her
friends , the Kusslan exile. Prince Krapot-
Idne , among them , and she took up her resi
dence In a cheap hotel In the East End ,
Where she was always In conference with
trades unionists , reformers , and the whole
racoi'Of those who had a grievance against
society.
When Ileatrlco Wcbbb's friends read Mrs.
Humphrey Ward's story of "Marcella , " they
eald : "How llko Beatrice ! If only she could
liavo ended like that ! "
"Stranco what little things- will turn the
course of true love , " said ono of the promi
nent members of the Porch club to an In
dianapolis Sentinel reporter.
When urged to explain she continued :
"Why. I know two splendid matches that
were broken off by the simplest things In
the world ; " ono was the whistle of an en
gine ; the other mustard plasters ! "
Her hearers looked Incredulous , and she
went on ; "It was last summer , and I had
a cuest whom I Introduced to one of our
young men , and he took a great fancy to
her. Of course I did everything In my power
to throw them together , and among other
things gave a buckboard party. They sat
together In the back seat , and were getting
along finely. Ho had reached the point
whore ho had told her he could not live with
out her , etc. . when the road took an ab
rupt turn , and the whistle of an approaching
train sounded. It seemed right upon us ,
though It really was on the other side of
the hill. Well , ho flow out on one side of the
\vagon , and she out on the other , and when
wo turned around to look at them they had
disappeared. Ono of the boys Jumped out
and helped her back Into the wagon , and
some one rescued him , but she was so Indig
nant to think that he had Jumped without
carlni ; what became of her that she hardly
epoko to him again. So you see that match
was spoiled.
"Tho other thing happened In the east. I
liavo a friend who gets fearfully seasick
every time she Is on the water. Well , she
was going to take. a. trip with a young man
, who had been very devoted to her all sum
mer , and she was bound she would not spoil
the trip by being seasick. So she did
everything any one told her. Took several
kinds of medicine , took any amount of
BinullliiK salts , lemons and other things
with her , and to crown all got flvo mustard
plasters. She put ono on the back of her
neck , ono on her chest , one on her stomach
and ono just above each knee. She stood the
trip splendidly , but never thought that they
would go right from the boat to the train
and rldo on the cars for live hours. As soon
us they got on the train she began to suffer
agonies from the mustard plasters , and ,
though she smiled and trlid to look natural ,
the squirmed and twitched In a manner
frightful to behold. Finally her escort said :
'Why , you arc the most restless girl I over
eaw. Can't you sit still for flvo minutes ? '
hWfll. she had to pretend It was all natural ,
and said nho didn't know that she wan any
more restless than she always was. He Bald
nothing , but after that ho was very cool
to her , and finally went away without sayIng -
Ing good by to lier at the close of the sum *
incr ,
"My husband asked him one day what was
the trouble between them , and ho said ;
" 'Well , I bellevo that girl Is a lit subject
for a sanitarium. I took a trip with her
ono day , ' and she Is the moat nervous girl
you ever * w , Juit twitches all the time.
I don't Intend to marry a woman who Is
that near nervous proatrat on It 1 know
mj-.v'lf. A woman with nerves llko that
ought to be taken to a hospital. '
"So you nee what trifles will break off
matches nowadays. "
Talking of matrimony , here Is a curious
matrimonial advertisement published In an
American newspaper In 1737. Whether the
gentleman of "easy temper , " whose only
mode of restraint was "stinting" which
every woman knows Is of all schemes the
most diabolical found a lady possessed of
all the enumerated perfections who was
willing to hide them cannot , at this late
date , be ascertained :
"A mlddlo-aged gentleman , barely turned
60 , and as yet unmarried , Is desirous of al
tering his condlt.on. He has a good es
tate , sound constitution , and easy temper ,
and , having worn cut the follies of youth ,
will be determined by reason In the choice
of the lady he Intends to make happy. She
must bo upwards of 15 and under 25. Her
size must be moderate , her shape natural ,
her person clean , and her countenance pleas-
> K. She must be lively In her humor , but
not smart In her conversation ; sensible , but
utterly unaffected w tit wit ; her temper
without extremes , neither too hasty , and
never sullen. Then she must Invariably
observe all forms of breeding In public
places and mixed company , but may lay
them all aside among her acquaintances. She
must have no affectation but that of hiding
her perfection , which her own sex will for
give , and th" other more quickly discover.
She shall be rcstra.ncd In nothing , the gen
tleman having observed that restraint only
makes good we men bad , and bad women
worse. In some things , perhaps , she may
be stinted , which Is the only method he will
take to signify his dislike to any part of her
conduct. Any lady whose friends are of
opinion ( her own opinion will not do ) that
she Is qua ! fled as above , and has a mind to
dispose of herself , may flnd a purchaser by
leaving with the printer hereof a letter di
rected to C. D. "
"After having kept house for more than a
decade I have finally learned how to wash
flannels satisfactorily , " remarked a young
housekeeper the other day to a New York
Trlbuno man. "The way I gained the
knowledge makes quite a little story ; and as
It helped me , I w.ll tell it for the benefit of
others. Every one knows the maddening
directions that 'experienced housekeepers
are wont to give for this most puzzling
problem ; some tell you that the water Is to
be bolting hot ; others that It must be almost
cold ; the soap Is to be prepared beforehand ,
or not used at all ; ammonia enters Into the
fray ; the Irons are to be of a certain tem
perature , etc. And In splto of all and every
precaut on the flannels grow beautifully less
every time they are washed. Well , about
a year ago I happened to be stopping with
some friends In England who were im
mensely Interested In a little school which
they had established for household servants.
They took ten girls and educated them In
different departments , and then found situa
tions for them a most beneficent work , by
the way , which helps the employer as well
as the employed.
"As luck would have It , my visit occurred
on 'washing and Ironing day , ' and we were
taken Into a model laundry , everything 'splc
and span , ' and shining with neatness. The
members of the little class were Just re
ceiving their Instructions before commenc
ing practical work. 'And now , girls , ' said
the capable , d > gntfled-looklng matron , 'what
will happen If you rub flannel long and hard ;
does any ono remember ? ' A chorus of
voices replied , 'It will turn Into felt. ' I be
gan to prick up my ears. How often had
* my flannels to my sorrow turned Into felt !
All through the little lecture I received
hints which were worth remembering , but
nothing so Important and so useful as that
little remark about felt. I believe that the
keynote to flannel washing Is 'never to rub
or wring ; ' and the other conditions will not
affect the case. The water may be hot or
cold ; the Irons , which are more or less rub
bers , should be used as sparingly as possible
and should therefore be used very hot ; the
soap must , of course , not be rubbed on ; and
to put the whole matter Into a nutshell ,
'Lot there be no rubbing or wringing,1 and
there w.ll bo no thickening or shrinking. "
A Httlo boy of 4 was on his knees looking
back at the passengers , the conductor beamIng -
Ing upon him over their heads , and , as
It Is only occasionally that that sort of a
conductor Is encountered , the passengers
who saw him beamed upon him In turn.
Presently a woman who sat next to the
boy signaled to the happy conductor to
stop the car. Ho did so and ran along the
side to assist her , and , feeling that It was
a good time to be pollto and obliging , picked
up the boy and hurried after her to the
walk. He deposited the Infant on the curb ,
and , evidently realizing that a good action
is Its own reward , waited not for thanks ,
but swung on his car and snapped the bell
to go on.
At the same moment ho was confronted
by another woman , excited and Indignant ,
who , standing with arms outstretched to
ward the boy on the curb , cried eagerly :
. "That's my child , conductor , that's my
child ! "
Meantime the woman who had left the
car pursued the even tenor of her way , all
unconscious of her following , and the small
boy stood bewildered where ho had been
placed. The unhappy conductor started his
car with a Jerk , rushed back , picked the boy
up , and restored him to his parent , and ,
with a disgusted expression on his face ,
took his position on the platform , remarkIng -
Ing to an amused spectator ; "It's always
the way. Whenever I try to do a good-
natured thing I put my foot In It. I'll let
the women take care of their own children
after this. "
Then the car rolled on , the passengers
continued to enjoy the zephyrs and the ro-
unltcd mother And sou sat very close to
gether.
The "new woman" Is served up In this
particularly ungnllant fashion In Jerome K.
Jerome's paper , Today : "In the west end
of London there are plenty of vapid , brain
less , heartless , overdressed-ln-the-afternoon
and underdresscd-ln-tho-evcnlng little ani
mals , that , there being no other name at
present for , wo have to call women. They
are vicious , selfish and Idle. They Bell
themselves for money and then do not
carry out the terms of , the bargain. They
marry , but they are never wives , They are
blood suckers on the unfortunate men who
liavo been asses enough to undertake the
responsibility of feeding and clothing them.
They will ruin them In business and worry
them Into early graves rather than go with
out an extra new dress. Th y have chil
dren , but they are not mothers ; they have
not oven the Instincts of the better class
brutes. Self-indulgent and stupid , they
drift through life , everlastingly whining and
posturing , a bore to themselves and a curto
to every one who knows them. They cry
that they are misunderstood , which would
be the most charitable thing that could
happen to them , and they talk about their
soul with as much assurance as if they
ready possessed one. They take all they
can get , they do nothing for It ,
and they are never satisfied. Hut I
should bo sorry to take them as types of
their sex , and to talk about them as the
now women. They are types of nothing
but a social disease. "
Poor Mine. Carnet has left the Klysee !
She has not been long In packing up , and as
neither she nor her husband liked bibelots ,
the baggage she will take with her to the
apartment In the Avenue d'Alma will hardly
nil a couple of vans. There was univer
sal sorrow when she went , for everybody
loved the gentle , strong-willed woman , who
managed her household , and particularly her
husband , -with such unfailing tact and clev
erness. All the qualities of a good wife
were hers by Inheritance. She has English
blood , but that does not necessarily account
for her tine common sense , of which all
French women possess so much. Perhaps It
explains her piety. Her French grand
father was a robust peasant from Plcardy ,
named Corbie , who started In l.fe without a
farthing , but became proprietor of the Hotel
Meurlce , which he kept for many years , and
where , by the way , the Carnets still stop
when they come to ParU. His clever man
agement noon made him a rich man. From
the Uupont Whites Mine. Curnot Inherits a
strong strain of philosophy , In which Fourier
nungles with John Stuart Mill , a srt of
gentle bourgeolso socialism Kosseau modi
fied by Adam Smith. Hut uhe Is none the
less a fervent Catholic , and , In spite of her
ambition and love of management , c'est una
ame exquUe. Had It not been for her , Carnet
not would never have c.mo out of his shell.
One of the things housekeepers flnd diffi
cult at this season Is the disposal of k.tchen
refuse. The caution Is emphasized at least
to keep It dry. The change which takes
place when water Is mixed with food waste
la very different from that which It under
when kept dry. The one I * putrefac
tion dangerous , capable of causing Illness
If Its gases arc breathed by susceptible sys
tems ; the other Is nature's moda of dispos
ing of all things of earth , a true decomposi
tion , or nitrification , n process of give and
take , worked out by living organisms.
If the refuse pall Is kept In the open air
and all liquid kept out , practically no harm
can be done ; but the heat and steam , of the
kitchen accelerate putrefaction ; the pene
trating power of steam , greater than that
of dry heat , goes deeper Into the refuse pall
than Is realized.
A handful of earth should bo a house
keeper's ever ready sanitary aid , especially
In city houses. Taken from the surface In
any back yard , It will be teeming with In
visible life , ready to perform specific func
tions and reduce all to Its own kind , earth
or dust , Whether In earthworms or bac
teria , they serve as agents of sanitation ,
and avert danger of rising gases , as welt as
defeating these pestilential scavengers , flies.
A covering of earth Is a cleaner lid than
ever tinsmith made.
College girls were discoursing the other
evening upon the various queer things which
appear on college menus. One was a des
sert of dates and milk , n thing popular at
Wcllesley , and another was peanuts mixed
with figs. These horrors recalled a summer
dish which sounds equally queer , but Is
really very good. It Is maple sugar served
In various ways. Yes , until you have eaten
maple sugar and cream on strawberries , rod
and black raspberries , blackberries and
peaches you have not lived. The writer has
Introduced many epicures to these dainties.
Each one was dubious and unbelieving.
Each timorously took the first mouthful.
Each closed his eyes and sighed an Ineffable
rapture. A shortcake Is quite as delicious ,
while orange , red and black raspberry short
cakes are almost as good. With oranges ,
however , powdered sugar should be used.
A dainty and refreshing desert for n hot
night Is made of sliced oranges , bananas
and pineapples , thickly powdered with sugar
and kept all day In the Ice box. Serve with
whipped cream. Never cut pineapple. Shred
It with a silver fork.
A little Incident which happened at an
English school not long ago ought to be told
for the kindness of feeling that It shows.
An American boy , having been called upon In
class the first day to say who was the first
Norman king of England , did not know.
The class laughed uproariously. But the
master , rapping for order , ald : "Fair ploy ,
boys ; now , let the next boy tell me who
was the first president of the United States. "
He could not answer , so the little American
no longer felt shamefaced In the presence
of his schoolfellows. It was not many days
before the master was called upon to settle
a dispute between them , for more than one
English lad Insisted upon It that New York
was the cap.al : of this country , and the
American could not understand why some
of the largest towns In England are towns
and not cities , and shook his head In a puz
zled way when told that to be
a city In England the town must
have a cathedral and be the seat
of a bishop. He couldn't understand why
the boys eyed him suspiciously when he
told them tliat his uncle belonged to a mlll-
tla until he found out that what we call
the militia are the volunteers In England
and the militia there are the lowest and most
degraded class of regular soldiers. So you
see the Ignorance was not all on one side.
"Oh , dear , " sighed a woman , opening her
mall , "this letter must be answered on the
Instant. It's not so dreadfully Important , "
she went on to explain , "but Its from an
Englishwoman , and Englishwomen are so
offensively punctual. If I may be allowed the
expression , that one does not dare to be
otherwise. "
It undoubtedly Is a trial and often a sur
prise to us lax American women that we
are expected to reply at once to our notes.
The Inelegance of beginning a note with an
apology for not having written Is so very
common that at the private schools It Is
considered necessary to point It out for re
form. An Englishwoman would as soon
think she must be told not to eat with her
knife as to need a caution of this sort. A
note of any sort is a sacred obligation to be
at once discharged. A system in one's cor
respondence would much reduce Its burden.
Her want of training in-this respect Is one
of the handicaps , by the way , which the
woman who begins a business career without
It finds.
A woman physician has been saying In
print that few persons know how to cook
water. "The secret , " she says. "Is In put
ting good , fresh water Into a neat kettle ,
already qul'e ' warm , and setting the water to
boiling quickly , and then taking it off to
use In tea , coffee or other drinks before It Is
boiled. To let it steam , simmer , and evapo
rate until the good water Is all In the at
mosphere , and the lime and Iron and dregs
left In the kettle bah ! that is what makes
a good many people sick and Is worse than
no water at all. "
A critical taste , goes on this authority ,
will detect at the first mouthful , If the nose
has not already demurred and given warning ,
the faintest trace of dead water In tea , cof
fee , porridge and many other Items designed
for the stomach.
She concludes with the advice that If per
sons will drink tea and coffee let them at
least have It as nearly free from poisonous
conditions as possible. That much benefit
may bo derived by many people from drinkIng -
Ing hot water Is not disputed , but the water
should be freshly drawn , quickly boiled In a
clean and perfect vessel and Immediately
used. The times of using , the adding of
milk , mint , lemon , or other fruit Juices , Is a
matter of preference or special prescrip
tion.
Dinners were handsome and very social ,
the talk delightful , but the balls were
sparsely furnished with light and chairs ,
says a writer in Llpplncott's , depleting so
ciety In 1849. The Illumination was of wax
or stearlne candles , which used to send down
showers of spermaceti on our shoulders.
Dress was vary much plainer. I remem
ber my father calling me to him one evening ,
as I was dressed for a ball and saying :
"Well , my daughter , you look very nice.
How much have you cost me ? " I said " $5. "
I had on a tarlatan dress of white , which I
had made myself , and a camella In my hair ,
which somebody gave me. One hundred
dollars a year was considered a handsome
allowance for a young girl to dress on. I am
afraid I have never looked so well since ; cer
tainly my costumes have never cost so
little. An old lady once showed mo a
brocade dress , which she said she had worn
since General Jackson's time.
Women did not throw away or alter
dresses then as now. They bought good
stuffs and wore their dresses carefully. Very
pretty bright chintzes , and what wo called
moussellno-de-lalne , were our spring outfits ,
and always white dresses of cambr'c and mus
lin. The Jewels worn by Mine. Uodlsco
and Lady Lytton Uulwer were great curiosi
ties to us simple people.
Housekeepers hold an unjust prejudice to
ward cottonseed oil. That In other quarters
this prejudice Is gradually diminishing sta
tistics abundantly prove. About half of
last year's product , 1,000,000 barrels of oil ,
formed a part of lard ; thousands of bar
rels are sent to the Mediterranean and added
to olive oil ; Maine uses It for Us sardine (7)
preservation ; hundreds of thousands of bar
rels go to Holland to mix with butter , and
how much of It Is mixed with butter and
oleomargarine In this country Is very hard
to flnd out. It Is at least pronounced by our
ablest chemists to be wholesome and having
good food value. Its capabilities for puri
fication are so great that It seems Incredi
ble that housekeepers should retain any dis
trust of It , knowing as they must the free
dom from risk of disease In Its use , as com
pared with poor or rancid lard. It Is much
pleasanter to use the oil of a seed than that
of an animal.
Some remarkable Instances of ab
sence of mind In great men are to bo found
In collections of una , A Dutchman seems
to have surpassed anything of the kind yet
perpetrated. He Is a widower , and he pre

ASSASSINATION OF PRESIDENT CARNOT

PARIS , July 12. ( Correspondence of The
Bee. ) I reached Paris on my European trip
Saturday , Juno 10 , 1S9I , that I might be
pretcnt at a very Important meeting ot the
Ficnch Young Men's Christian association
In that city to do honor to Hon. James
Blokes of Now York City , who had given
$ GO,000 toward the erection of their new
nsrcclatlon building.
The next day , Sunday , the 17th of Juno ,
was the day that was fixed for thd
great races , In which Paris and nil Franco
weiro Intensely ! Interested and to which
many thousands came from other countries.
It was what might be termed Derby day for
Franco and Paris. Every place In Paris
was crowded with visitors.
At the close of the Endeavor meeting In
the'American church about 5 o'clock p. m.
I started with others for the Arch of
Triumph at the head of the Avenue Champs
Elyseus. When we reached the avenue wo
found It filled with the finest of carriages
of every kind returning from the races nt
Boulogne Park. And the broad pavements
on both sides of the avenue were crowded
with men , women and children Intently
gazing at the moving stream of carriages.
Just then President Carnet passed along In
his carriage from the park toward his home ,
where ho had doubtless spent the day nt
tlio races. Ho was cheered by the multl-
tuds on both sides of the avenue. That
we might get a better view of the multitudes
that had been at the races we went up on
the Arch of Triumph , ICO feet high. The
twelve avenues that radiate from this great
arch wore all full of persons that had thus
spent the day. These races were a great
thing In the eyes of the French people , par
ticularly the Parisian people , and President
Curnot of the French republic waa the cen
tral figure In It all this day.
The following Sunday , June 24 , was the
quietest day of my more than two weeks
In the French capital. It Is the custom of
the Parisians to spend Sunday outside of
the city. If possible , particularly In the after
noons , thus very materially depopulating the
city. While this was true of Paris on this
day , the public attraction In France was then
In Lyons , where the Chamber of Commerce
of that city was entertaining President Carnet
not with n great banquet. The newspapers
stated that "He- was received with great , en
thusiasm by the Immense crowd outside of
the building , both on his arrival and on emerg
ing to take his departure. " But the day
did not wind up so satisfactorily as the first
Sunday. For as he was departing from the
banquet about 9 o'clock p. m. , apparently
well guarded , he was cruelly assassinated
by an Italian anarchist , and died several
hours afterward. This closed the second
Sunday. The news spread rapidly every
where. I heard It In Paris before I re
tired on that Sunday night. This was a sad
day for France. The next day , Monday ,
June 25 , and ever since the whole country
was and has been In mourning. I have
never seen a more general expression of
sorrow for a ruler's untimely death , not even
In the assassination of Lincoln or Gar-
field. It was evident that the French peopl ?
regarded him as a good man , and truly
mourned his death.
Durlns the following week all classes of
persons ueeineJ to constantly reading the
papers , filled with matters concerning him
and Issued la frequent extras. This could
bo seen In the streets. In the hotels and
cafes , a'nd at the homes 'of the peop'le.
Evidences of sorrow of every description
werd seen evrywhere you turned your eyes.
Furled flage draped In mourning stood out
from the endless rows of houses , as cars of
corn stand out from the thrifty corn In
rows. Wherever the president's picture was
displayed It was gazed upon by groups of
French people In quiet grief. The spectacle
was a Bad one from whatever standpoint
you viewed It. and It was heartily shared In
by all right thinking foreigners , particularly
the Americans ,
The speedy election of M. Caslmlr-Pcrler ,
a much stronger man than President Carnet
not , as his successor on Wednesday after
noon , scttleo } all fear as to the stability of
the republic , but did not for n moment
check the manifestations of sorrow.
Even the newly-elected president , strong
as ho was , could not refrain from shedding
tears of grief for President Carnet , when It
was announced that he had been chosen as
his successor.
What I have written Is not a tithe of the
sorrow that was manifested In every way
and everywhere In France on account of the
president's assassination , wblch occurred at
the close of that second Sunday , Juno 24.
The third Sunday , July 1 , will not be soon
forgotten by any person who was In Paris
on that day. As soon as It was announced
that the president would bo burled on Sun
day , July 1 , nil persons , Catholics and
Piotcstants , Frenchmen and foreigners ( and
none with more promptness and In
tensity than the Italians , who keenly
felt the odium that one ot their
own countrymen had brought upon tham ) .
all persons , I say , Joined In rendering
heartfelt testimony to the dead president.
Everything waa put under contribution to
manifest the respect and sorrow that were
entertained for President Carnet and his
family. In so many ways did the French
people and their friends ( who were legion )
manifest their sorrow that I cannot attempt
to specify them.
I must content myself with a few particu
lars as measures for whatever else was done
that I cannot speak of. Perhaps It would
be best to speak of two of the testimonials
which were especially marked , because of
their vastness and peculiarly Intense.
In all my life I never saw such banks
of beautlfui flowers. There seemed to bj no
end to them. It was stated that all the cliolco
flowers of Franco wore gathered for this
occasion. There were at least ten or twelve
crowns , bouquets or wreaths that required
a two-hotso wagon each to draw them along
In the procession. There were more that
required a one-horse conveyance. Hundreds ,
yes , thousands of bouquets , crowns and
wreaths of all sizes and designs , berne by
strong men , lads and lasses , made the
endless procession a veritable moving train
of flowers. Added to this was not only the
exquisite beauty of the flowers themselves ,
but they were made doubly beautiful by the
numberless expressive combinations made of
them by the artists. It Is said that ono
flower shop made 100,000 francs In the last
two days before the funeral.
Never before perhaps In peaceful times
did a larger number ot persons participate
ono way or another In the funeral ot anyone
ono person. The procession and the crowds
an both sides of the avenues were so great
as to forbid computation. Those multitudes
wore made up of citizens , soldiers , Judges ,
members ot the national legislature , physi
cians , educators , authors and members of
various societies , religious , Industrial , scien
tific and otherwise.
Thousands of men , high up In government
circles and prominent In society , walked In
the procession under the scorching sun ,
from three to flvo hours , In full dress milts
or other elegant attire which marked their
station , calling , or position In government
or society.
Those who looked upon the procession were
no less Intense In their devotion than those
In the ranks. There were thousands of In
terested persons who stood up all night at
given places upon the streets or avenues to
hold the places from which they could view
the funeral procession on Us way to the
great Notre Dame church , and to the Pan
theon afterwards , where President Carnot's
body wan to bo placed. Many paid large
prices for desirable places to view the fune
ral procession ; others a smaller sum for lets
desirable positions. Ono person It was said
offered 30,000 francs for the Louvre balcony.
A large window In ono of the most fashion
able botelt ) found a bidder at 1,500 francs.
Single seats In good localities brought 40
francs each. I paid 3 francs for a position
on a poor ladder from which I most Intently
viewed the procession for at least three
hours , until the Intense heat and iny un
pleasant position compelled me to leave the
place and go to my hold for real.
Two other significant features of that won
derful personal demonstration showed the
Intensity of tliclr personal regard , One
after another of the honored men of
France were seen walking In the 1 no of that
Immonro procession , particularly n French
general , old and lame1 , but doubtless very
distinguished , thus testifying their great In
dividual respect and lo\e frr their martyred
president. On the other hand , many In the
crowds recognized them and could not re
frain from cheerng , and clapping their
hands. Hut the great mass of the multi
tude In and out of the procession suppressed
their demonstrations as out of place at
such n time by n general hlis which stopped
It almost Instantly so that the procession
moved on quietly as before. I have not
space to continue this longer. In conclusion
I might say that the facts much more than
fulfilled the statement of the Paris edition
of the New York Herald , mnde early In the
morning. "Today amid booming cannon , the
walling notes of the dead march and the
clashing of arms , the murdered president ,
whom Franco mourns , as she perhaps never
mourned n ruler before , will be borne to
his last resting place In the temple where lie
the ashes of his Illustrious grandfather. He
will be escorted to his tomb by the repre
sentatives of kings , principalities and pow
ers of Europe and ot the new world , assem
bled to do honor to the memory of n blame
less life , to one who did his duty manfully
nnd who died nt his post a martyr to the
cause of order and justice.
"Nor will the great ones of the earth
olono bring their tribute to the collln of him
who took his place so worthily among them ,
for the people of Paris , nay , the people of
France from the highest to the lowest , will
gather today In their thousands to bid a
last farewell to the president without fear
and without reproach , who so bravely up
held the best traditions of his country. "
I have written this without drawing any
lessons or moral conclusions. Let each
reader conclude for himself. I only de
sire to show what was done on these three
characteristic Sundays In Franco and how
I'Msldent Carnet was the center of Interest
each day ns well ns to note the different
settings ot each day.
