MARRIAGE IS

France Battles Against
Depopulation, Offers
Family Premiums
, PariB, Jan. 11 Various suggestions
for facilitating and increasing the
number of marriages in France have
been reported by the subcommittee
on law and administration of the gen
eral commission that was appointed
to consider the depopulation of

1 the prefect of police, calling for the
i distribution of premiums to those
i state employes who hae several chll
i dren. The measure also stipulates
that no increase of remuneration shall
be voted to such employes in the fu
ture without giving a special treat-
ment to employes with large families

BEAUTIFUL
PARK SOLD
J Heavy Tax Made Count
- Dispose of Part of
Historic Ground
Paris, Jan. 11. Great perturbation
was aroused in the breasts of lovers
of Paris by the report that the Count
de Franqueville has sold the historic
Chateau de la Muette and its wonder
l ful old park, on the Passy border ot
the Bois de Boulogne, to a speculating
1 builder, who was going to cut down
the centenarian trees and build large
blocks of apartments houses. A let
ter from the count, however, allayed
public opinion
He had not. and did not Intend,
io sell his house, but in view of the
tremendously heavy tax on unbuilt
lend in Paris, he had sold a portion
of the park, including the beautiful
avenue of lime trees at Ranelagh and
the MM' oh l ":.ri. ti rn t in' f'd.m- .! ih'
Bois de Boulogne The ground sold
totals altogether about 35,000 square
metres, and the price paid is under
stood to be $1,S00.000.
The chateau was originally a hunt
ing lodge in the time of Louis XI V.
Phillippe. Duke of Orleans, the Re
gent, built a house of one story t h iv
for his daughter, the Duchess of Ber
ry, who rendered it famous by her
entertainments The second story

DANDIES ARE
PERTURBED
Man With a Handbag
and Girl With Be-Dia-monded
Heels
Paris, Jan. 11 The world of Paris
ian dandies, whose existence is occu
pied with caricaturing the English
and American male fashions, has been
greatly agitated by the news that a
lew days ago a well known 'elegant'
was seen in Piccadilly, not with a
poppy or a lily, but a leather handbag
hanging from hiB left arm, and was
further seen to enter a store and stow
away his trifling purchases in his ret
icule, which contained, as permanent
iittings, a cigarette case, matches, a
purse, a knife and an Oxford Bible
The latest whim of female eccen
tricity, as a counterpoise to the male
handbag, is the introduction of dla
mond studded shoe heels. A well
known dancer Is responsible for this
idea Her dream, it appears, is to
abandon shoes for sandals, so that she
may be able to adorn her feet with
rings in the classical manner, but as
this seems impracticable in the mud
dj Paris streets, she is considering a
compromise in the shape of de-dla
monded heels. Her suggestion, which
is believed to have had a trans-Atlan
tic inspiration, has been welcomed
with a chorus of approval in theatrical
circles.

imously adopted resolutions of regret
at the departure of Mr and Mrs. An
derson, the minister having been ap
pointed ambassador to Japan.
Several well known American wom
en have presented valuable pictures
to the club house, while other gifts
include a rare, antique fireplace and
an antique silver tea service.

PHYSICIANS
DON'T AGREE
English National Insur
ance Act Causes a
Very Serious Split
London, Jan 11 The decision of
the council of the British Medical as
sociation not to work through the In
surance committees set up by the na
tional insurance act. because of their
disagreement with the terms of com
pensation offered by the government,
has caused a serious split In the as
sociation. After long negotiations and a ple
biscite of the profession in which the
majority of doctors voting decided
against accepting the government's
terms, the council submitted an alter
native policy which gave the various
divisions of the association freedom
(o negotiate with the Insured persons
or their representatives) the approved
societies The government refused to
consent to an such arrangement and
proceeded to the formation of panels
of medical men willing to work under
tb a t, and announced that in any
area where there were not sufficient
doctors accepting their terms, to make
other provision for gising medii l!
benefit to all Insured persons who re
quire it after January 16, the date on
which the benefits come into effect
in most of the large ities the ko
emment has found no difficulty in oh
taining sufficient doctors to act, and
in some districts all the doctors have
accepted the terms It is in the coun
try districts, where the old Fashioned
practitioner still has a complete mo
nopoly of the practice, that the great
es difficulty will be found. Those
who have accepted the government B
terms Inn e formed the National Prac
titioner's association and have with
drawn from the older association lu
the first plebiscite the doctors oted
by an overwhelming majority against
the plan on the ground that the fees
were not large enough The govern
ment partially met this objection by
inrrp-naing the fees, but the doctors
were still dissatisfied and they fought
hard for more, another plebiscite
was taken, and while a majority of
those who voted were against falling
In under the new scale of fee;., a stli
greater majority abstained It la these
abstainers, with the minority in Un
voting, upon whom the government is
now relying. Mr Lloyd George, the
sponsor of the act, expresses conft
dence that he will secure sufficient
doctors, but sajs if he does not he will
establish national medical service

FIGHT ON TO OUST
CARBON COUNTY CLERK
Price. Utah. Jan. in Proceedings

son from office on a charge of mis
conduct have been taken here by the
jhoard of commissioners of Carbon
county. This action results directly
'from a controversy between County
Clerk Pierson and the commission
ers over the granting, on January C,
j of liquor licenses to Fred Paternoster
of Sunnyslde and John Dlamantl, pro.
prietor of what is known as the Half
lVa house, between Castle Gate and
j Helper
The two licenses were granted af
ter long session on January 6, when
arguments pro and on wore pre
sented by representatives of the con
cerns Interested. County Attorney C.
C McWhinnev and M. P. Hraffet,
representee the 1'tah Fuel company,
Which operates lare coal mines at
Sunnyslde. opposed the granting of
the licenses The applicants were

Pierson Is Accused
The licenses were finalK granted,
bui it is declared that Count j Clerk

ter with County Clerk Pierson, the

sue the licenses when he got around
to it and not before," and thai he
would "not allow his deputies to Is
sue then."
The commissioners requested the
'in
county clerk to attend a meeting and
Jtake proper minutes of the granting
of the licenses. County Clerk Pler
!son refused. It is asserted, whereupon
the boaid appointed a special deputy,
who lecorded the board's action. The
commissions adopted a resolution
that proceedings be instituted against
I the county clerk under chapter 8,

Moreover, yesterday Captain Moor
