. CY LA VOYAGUESE. Paris, July 9. When people speak of the truly smart French woman who seemingly ."lives but for dress," they refer to a class, who after all, lmles as their lives may seem to many fill a very important role, for they act as models for nearly the entire civilised feminine world at large and through them, every line of commerce and industry profits the world over. It certainly Is "a business in itself, to be well dressed." To accomplish this takes more time than many people imagine. It no doubt, does require many times three-quarters of an hour for a Parisian 'to put on her hat and veil,' another half hour to adjust the blouse and tailor-made gown, etc., but once the dressing is 'ended there is no grabbing up of ends of veils or smoothing of stray locks for the lightest ratification of any part of the toilette, once completed is considered ultra bad form. You never see a French woman fiddling to get her hat pins right or straightening her hat, or doing the many things the average woman of other countries usually does once she leaves her dressing room. Women of even the most modest means, in France, employ a lady's maid, who helps her dress and dally looks after those many trifles that 'go to make a woman well-groomed. The brushing of garments, when taken off, the straightening of veils, the attention to hooks and eyes and buttons, seeing that all connections meetsaves the wear and tear to a far greater extent than seems possible and also much expense, aside from the fact that without the aid of a lady's maid on cannot, at least in France, be absolutely well dressed without her assistance.

colonial troops participating. , The sight of all these men-at-arms is a most inspiring, and impressive one, and well calculated to confirm one in the opinion of all loyal French men and women, that when another conflict with a foreign power comes, the French arms will be victorious.

The great, national fete of France, the fall of the Bastile. to be celebrated July 14th, will have added interest In Paris this year by reason of the intended visit of the King and' Queen of Belgium, who are to come as the guests of President Fallleres. They are to witness the review of French troops at Longchamps. which is the greatest demonstration of, its kind each year, tens of thousands of soldiers taking1 part, and all branches of the army-culrassiors. dragoons, hussars, infantry of the line aouaves and

One noticeable fact at public affairs and demonstrations is that you rarely, lf.ever see a Frenchwoman under the influence of Hcuor, while across the Channel, in England, such a' sad and demoralizing sight is by no means uncommon. Here women always observe decorum when in public. On a gala occasion it is an' attractive sight to see a French wording girl gotten up for the day, her white linen or cotton skirt and blouse, spick ' and span, a neat belt holding in her tiny waist, for herein lies her pride; no "straight fronts" for her with her waist out of its normal place. Her bid style corset is her first and only choice: She has almost emancipated hdrself, those many years, from hats and veils, collars and gloves. Her hair - is arranged with the greatest caTe. undulated and with as many curls added as her more fashionable sister. She is certainly a cheerful miss .this "Mile. Midinette," as she is popularly termed, and one of the most agreeable sights of the capital.

there.

The many admirers of Mary Garden, the beautiful, will regret to hear that she has almost, if not entirely lost her hold on the affections of the more or less inconstant Paris' opera-goers, for a new star has arisen in the French operatic sky, named Oeraldine Farrar, another American singer, well known in New York, Chicago, Boston and other American opera goers. She has so long been devoted to Germany (including, some say to a member of the imperial family), but has foresworn her allegiance and will make Paris her home hereafter. A very significant hint of her future success was the luncheon given in her honor by Judge Sellgman of New York, a short time ago, at which a number ot well known society people were present. It is hoped, however, that Miss Farrar will sing at the Opera Comique, for there seems to be a hoodoo about the

Immediately after the running of tho great Grand Prix, that historic

race which not alone closes the Paris

summer season, but at the same time calls forth the latest thoughts from the dress and hat-making world, and

which unquestionably has the greatest

influence on the coming year's styles, the "Tout Paris." that exclusive circle, known in the United States as the "400" folds its tents, or whatever you

choose to call them and packing its

trunks, hies to its villa or chateau in the country, as the case may be. Thus

society seeks to obtain a breathing

spell and a rest after the rush of the season in town before going to the

smart seaside resorts.

The season at these places, although short, lasting but three-weeks, one of twhich is devoted to racing, is one of brilliancy beyond description. At Trouville and Deauvllle. from morning until night, women of fashion appear on the well known white boards, which

'.more elaborate, even, than those worn

during the Paris season. In these

places one is "on view" all the time,

hence any small imperfection is notic

ed at once, in consequence the amount of time spent in dressing is much greater than in Paris. Indeed, so very much greater that one wonders how the women managed to use so much

time in this particular direction.

Have Fears for Kaiser's Health Emperor William, With His Variety of Maladies, May Not Be -' So Well as Dispatches State. ""

BY STEVEN BURNETT. Berlin. July "V About nothing are the German people more sensitive than the health of their Kaiser. Of

late public attention has been directed in more than an ordinary' degree to the subject, and the cold which

kept him to his room at the close of

March, followed by the somewhat mysterious swelling on his right wrist, has increased the sensitiveness that always exists. Happily this time, too there is not as yet. and most probably

will not be. the slightest ground for

alarm. Like other people the Kaiser is but mortal, and like them is exposed to the small break-downs of one or other of the human system. He is not gifted by nature with, for example the iron constitution of his grandfather, Emperor William the

First, or Prince Bismarck; but, save for the weakness of his left arm, he has little to complain of in this respect, and by strength of will and temperate living, has hitherto been adequate to the enormous demands he has made on his physical resources ever since he mounted the throne. He eats moderately, smokes but a few cigarettes, or a couple of cigars a day, and confines his drinking, ex

cept for an occasional glass of light'

beer, to his favorite non-alcoholic beverage, apple-lemonade. He takes his share too, of necessary recreation, whether in the form of hunting at one

of his own or a friend's castle, or of

an annual sea trip to northern reg

ions, or of a week's yachting at Kiel or Cowes, In reality, however, he Is

working all the time, and when not working physically he is burdened mentally, as he has more than once publicly confessed with the tremendous responsibilities of Empire. This kind of life has gone on for many years, apparently without doing him any harm. But there are signs that so much strenuousness and such a burden of anxiety cannot go on indefinitely, and voices are beginning to be heard advising him to check the pace and delegate to others all the rough work, particularly on the military side, he nbw insists on doing for himself. Of recent months the Kaiser has suffered from a series of ailments, which, however trivial and temporary when regarded separately, are not insignificant when considered in their totality. He ha3 had trouble with his ear, too, and the inconvenient swelling on his wrist has only just healed. But no man or monarch is quite the same at fifty as at forty, and the Kaiser has well earned the right to take things more easily.

and Mayence a distance ot some 250 miles. Only German airmen in German-built machines will be eligible to compete. Prince Albert of Schleswig-Holstein-Glucksbnrg is at the head of a com mittee of airmen who will proceed to work out the conditions for the contest, which will be modeled, to a large extent on the London-Manchester event. Another $12,500 prize has been available for some months for a continuous flight from Munich to Berlin. 450 miles, but the conditions are practically prohibitive, and no effort has been made to meet them.

affirmation that Germany is the . El Dorado ot the workman. :

A curious scene took place in a police court where a young man, who had been several times sentenced for theft, again came up for sentence. He had showed signs of madness, and a medical examination was ordered and he was put into an asylum. He had no desire to remain in the asylum however, and informed the director that his madness was feigned, and asked to be taken before his judges. The experts, who persisted in declaring that he was mad. invited him to give an exhibition of feigned madness. The accused bounded from the chair, foaming at the mouth, and rolled in front of the judge. The spectators in court shouted "enough and the realistic scene came to an end by the prisoner delivering a speech and returning to bis seat with a smile on his lins. He was sentenced to six weeks imprisonment.

Germany is frankly jealous of the laurels France and America are conquering in the realm of airmanship, and a tardy effort is in progress to bring -the Fatherland to the front in the world's most modern and picturesque pastime. To arouse the Interest and ambition of German airmen the Aviator's League offers a prize of $12,500 for an overland flight from Frankfort to Mannheim and back via Wiesbaden

The Fatherland has seldom been so deeply stirred as by the papal aspersions on the character and morals of the Reformation leaders. I have heard general astonishment expressed that American Protestants are not equally aroused. N The land of Luther, at any rate, has made up for any lack of excitement in other Protestant communities, for the country has resounded with violent protest for a fortnight. One of the most picturesque and impressive dem

onstrations was that held at the Wartburg at. Eisebach. the castle where Martin Luther translated the Bible and hurled an inkpot at the devil the veracious guide will show you the spots. King Frederick August of Saxony, the Catholic Monarch of a Protestant realm, ingratiated himself in the

hearts of his people by joining in the

protest with a personal letter

Pope. The encyclical incident

formally closed, but it is to be feared

that "confessional peace" between the warring elements of Catholicism and Protestanism in Germany has suffered an irreparable blow. Of the country's 62.000.000 inhabitants 22.000.000 are Catholics. Politically they represent the strongest individual force In the nation.

At Local Theaters

Big Musical Attraction. , If you miss the big show at the Murray theater this week you will dD your finer sensibilities an injustice, for the bill especially "Ye Colonial Sextette" an act that costs the SunMurray Amusement Co. $700 for a

single week and reports afcow that the act Is well wertn ail that to paid , for it. The theme upon whfefe the act is built is a colonial All Hallow e'en in the days ot the Old Dominion. First heralds appear, a - flunky announce that Mistress Nell will give the outline

of the story and that pretty colonial damsel tells of the Hallowe'en party at -the manor house, in which no one may speak before midnight under the penalty ot having to blow the witches horn ; scene two finds the swains escorting their lady loves to the party, and, when there a quintet ot stringed instruments, a cornet solo, a BB basa helican tuba solo, and the septette of brass with the valve post horn finale come. . Incidentally, there are several wonderful vocal solos rendered, one in particular being a gem, the basso's number. Tommy Overholt, a somewhat different singing and dancing comedian, will add variety to this big bill. Weston and Cushman, a team that always pleases, and the motion pictures are other excellent features for this week, which will undoubtedly prove a popular week even" if the weather should be a little warm.

With forty-eight socialist members of the Reichstag, of whom five have been elected since the last general elections, the conservatives of Germany stare in horror at the sword of Damocles over their heads. The "Red Deluge" grows apace, and the "Burgerliche" political parties

seem powerless to arrest its progress

There is little doubt that the working classes throughout the country are seething with discontent. They see a combination of Clericals and Conservatives united to oppose even the most modest of their political aspirations with regard to the franchise. They see taxation mounting steadily, mainly in support of bloated military and naval armaments. They see the prices of the prime necessities of life mounting far beyond any com
