The grand boulevards are hung with flags draped In black , and tha florists' stalls arc full of wreaths destined for Russia. Some of the wrcatho were ordered from St. I'ctersburg thus showing how Paris maintains Its place na the art center of Ihe world The Gauiols publishes n description of Crar Nicholas' ' character as revealed by his handwriting Dr. I'apus , a graphologist , discovers from the crossing of the "ts" great strength of will and truthfulness ; from the dotting of the "Is" simplicity ; from Iho absence of flourishes honesty of purpose ; from the formation of the "as" Indecision. Ho also sees Indication of modesty. Another paper publishes a character nkelch. H says he Is educatcJ , speaks many languages , has a high sense ot duty. In fond at military dis cipline , has a firm belief In the virtue of on autocratic form of government. Is simple , ,1. hard working , very taciturn , seldom admits pcoplo to friendship , but once n friend .ilnays a friend. Ho Is said to be of a gentle dis position , but unlikely to manifest rnucli Initiative , A third paper describes Princess Allx as accomplished , fond of outdoor sports , with musical tastes , sweet In disposition , but n spoilt child , and likely to oterciso n strong influence over tlio emperor She has blue eyes , fair hair , is tall nnd graceful , has a beautiful figure and speaks Russian. TOO MUCH EATING DID IT Judging from the details published of the \ c/ar's death it appears certain that his Ill ness was duo lo his fondness for the pleas ures of Ihe table. Tlie Russian cuisine is particularly rich , and the late czar was ad dicted to eating heavy soups , rich greasy dishes , washing down great quantities of food with deluges of champagna or vodka Add lo this the fact that ho seldom walked , * took llttlo exercise , and was In the habit of spending pait of the day bleeping , tlie v.onder Is that ho lived so long. Besides he nscl dally to take a cold bath , which , unless fol lowed by vigorous exercise. Is very Injurious in the Russian climate. Down to tlie last he persisted In self-indulgence When ills malady was determined by n medical olllclal of the Imperial jaclit the czar refused to be'lcvo ' tlio truth ot the doctor's statement. Hut the truth of these > things was eventually "demonstrated , and at length ho was con vinced , even made to promise to adopt a strict milk diet , forswear the heavy Rus sian dishes and Iho champagne. He kept his promise about a week , during which his condition Improved wonderfully and the j * - percentage of sugar was diminished by half But ho speedily concluded that life without j _ his favorite dishes and drinks was not worth llvlnc nnd broke out ) afresh. Some time later lie was seized with violent nervous fits , which warned and frightened him He went back to milk , but only for a short while. His Ufa might have been saved had ho consented to follow the doctor's Instruc tions , but ho never seriously believed his life was In danger until too late. When Dr. I.ejdcn arrived he asked In surprise "Is my case really so desperate ? " Franca will send lo Iho funeral and to represent her army thrco of the handsomest colonels In the service. They are all over six feet lull , of striking appearance , and splendid iihslquc. Much sinpathy Is felt here for Princess Yourleffskaja , the morgan atic widow ot the late czar , who has a splen did hotel In Paris and leads a Ufa of dlgnl fled seclusion , spending the winter on the river. During the , present solemnities she naturally la left out In the cold. She has no place In Die court life of Russia , and must feel her Isolation painfully after having held the prominent position she did. She Is very charming ani unassuming. Her 1 fe Is de void of Incident. TOO TOUGH FOR PARIS. Paris has been shocked. This feat was accomplished by Maecklerllng , who adopted and produced a play by the old dramatist Tord , under the title of "Annabolla. " The vvholo play Is unfit to discuss in a respect able pap r , though It may have suited the ccarso tastes of the English publ c thrco centuries ago , The- principal Incident is one In which brother makes love to sister. The theater-going public is scandalized. In one ceno the lover tears Annabelln's heart out and throws It on the stage. Tar th s pur- 5J pi o a sheep's heart was used , bill Ihe blood caus d Die ladles , even the actresses , to faint , so now a reO , flannel heart Is used Still people Hock : to see Die piece from curl- osliy. The Dreyfus affair continues lo be a loplc of conversation. It steins that he was BUS peeled for some time by General Mercler , bu friends shielded him. Finally the disappear once ot Important documents brought matters , to a crisis , and a trap was set. A spy was employed to act as the agent of a foreign government , and letters addressed to certain important Trench ofllcers were left out to : Dreyfus to take. These ho copied and took to the cafe where Die supposed for lgn agen was waiting. Dreyfus was followed from tin War office to the- cafe and wag arrested. I U said lliat his powerful friends are bringing pressure to bear to save him. It Is whispered that a leading house of International flnan clera Is making n blrong effort In his behalf ' , y and lout Premier Dupuy would gladly husli up the wholescandal. . But the affair 1m gone too far The Trench public are clamor Ing for his punishment. No lawyer will un drrtake his defense Numerous leading ad vocatts have bean approached , but declined General Saumlcr will , therefore , have lo ap pcml tome lawjer to defend him.

Its utterince" , never theless , truly voice the growing feeling of misgiving among a large and liberal minded section of the Gcrnnn public , and Is more easily discerned in the states outside ot Prussia Indeed the emperor has been forced Into a leallzatlon of the dangers of the present situation by remonstrances ad dressed to him from Bavaria , Baden and Wurtembere regarding Caprlvl's dismissal and the general Instability of the govern ment. This Is nn Important fact , because It became known today , coupled with the announcement that Cnprlvi a trip to South Germany was not entirely a private affair , but takes the form of a mission at the re quest of Emperor William , with tlie object of calming the feeling of unrest and allay ing the reawakened disposition toward In dependent action on the part of the South German states , Instead of acting In strict conformity with the policy of the imperial government A demonstration ot tills spirit of particu larism Is found In the grand duke of Baden appointing spcelal envoys to the courts of Stuttgart and Munich. Slnco General von Caprlvl's dismissal the grand duke of Baden has not concealed his Indignation at the unceremonious ministerial disruption , and he has taken this step In order to show his disapproval. Prlnco Ilohenlohe had an audience v. 1th the prlnco regent ot Bavaria at Municli on Thursday last , but the result ot tlila Iniervlew Is not known up to the ' present moment. MORE CHANGES IMMINENT. Tlio feeling of apprehension respecting Hie stability of the homo policy of Germany Is amply justified by the ministerial changes which overbody now agrees to be Imminent Prlnco Ilohenlohe , as stated In previous dis patches to the Associated press , Is determined that every member of the cabinet shall bo In entire harmony with his views. Besides the Important changes already known It Is an nounced today that Dr. Carl von Bocttlcher , Imperial secretary of state for the Interior and vice president of the Prussian council of ministers , has lendercd hlj resignation , but up to the tlmo this dispatch is filed the ' . resignation had not been accepted by the emperor. The halfhearted denial of this statement only tends to confirm It , and an ofllclal announcement to the effect that Dr. von Boettlcher has resigned Is expected with in a few days. The RelchsanzclgT today publishes the appointment ot Herr von Hammersteln , director of Iho province of Hanover , as , Prussian minister of agriculture to succeed Herr von Ilcyden Cadow. As already cabled to the Associated press , Hammereteln Is president of the German agricultural council , which presented Prince Hohenloho a few days ago with a lh > t of Its demand ] , Hammer- sleln Is one of Iho largest land owners In Hanover. Ileyden Cadow , Iho retiring minis ter , has been decorated with the Order ot the Red Eagle with oak leaves , "rurthor resignations are expected before long. The Independence of the new chan- cMlor Is a matter ot common knowledge and bo has more than onre shown a disposition to assert his authority lo the utincst.

Pears of this latter eventuality will be ever present In the public mind , for it Is regarded as doubtful whether two such strong wills can work In harnionv for any length of time. WORK BEPORE THE REICHSTAG The postponement of the opening of the Reichstag from November 15 to December 5 Is due to Prince Hohonlohe's intention to supplint the objectionable members of the Imperial and Prussian cabinets before com mencing legislative work The late date of the opening of the Reichstag , however , will seriously Interfere with the task before that body Vlitualiy nothing can be done before the Christmas recess , but on the reopening of tlie RclcliBtag tlie anti-revolutionary bill and the budget will bo disposed of , after which the Reichstag will have to consider a number of Important measures , Including rI bills I providing for bourse reform , the sup pression I of Infectious diseases nnd the re striction of Immigration In tlie meanwhile the ( big center party has already , through Its party organs , told Prince Hoheiilolio on wllat condition lie can have Its support In the anti-revolutionary bill the centrists demand a new law which is not to bs used at any time against themselves , nor against the Catholic religion , and It Is stated upon good authority that these terms have been accepted , The agrarians , however , will cause Prlnco Ilohen- lohei a great deal of vexation The Natlqnal Tederatlon of Agriculturists hive formed an organisation to regulate trade In cereals , which Is merely a eloak for agitation In favor of the exclusion of foreign breadatnffs Com mittees hive already been appointed to opei- ate in tlie Diet and Hie Reichstag , and the success of their clfoits means the restriction of American imports.
