da Vinci's masterpiece, "Mona Lisa." was
missed from the Louvre, but the theft
is still in ti e mind of every one. and
Parisians constantly are asking what is
| being done to prevent other thefts of
; notable pictures. Since the installation
of the new director of the Louvre, in
place of M. Homolle. fallen into disgra-e
in c/msequence of the theft, a great deal
has been done to insure proper guardianship
for the treasures which the old Royil
Palace holds in such numbers.
Every nook and cranny has been
searched, and as many as possible are
being walled up or totally suppressed,
thus reducing to the lowest number the
possible hiding places of would-be thieves.
Even the keepers of the old gallery are
to be deprived of their rooms, several of
which were historic secret hiding places,
maybe in use in the time of catnarine de
Medici and Louis XIII. Special accoiHk
modation is being provided for them in
what was formerly the riding school of
the prince imperial.
Furthermore, the guardianship both by
day and by night is being scientifically
organized. Ti e building nas been divided
into twenty-three sections, in each of
which, both day and night, a special guardian
is installed, continually making a
round of inspection. The new director
of the Louvre has gone so far as to calculate
the distance they have to cover,
and so to apportion their tasks with some
attempt at fairness. In all. more than
three miles and a half of rooms and corridors
have to be traversed and no fewer
than fourteen hundred steps ascended and
descended. Three times a night th's
whole distance is covered by one special
guardian.
Other Changes Made.
In order to obtain the maximum of result
from the existing smali staff it has
been arranged, also, that the services at
the entries and thj cloakrooms shall be
placed in the hands of woman attendants.
The service is now done by the keepers.
When this change has been brought about
some attempt will be made to carry out
in the letter the notice one sees almost
everywhere: "It is compulsory to give
up your stick: no fees are charged." At
present neither part of this order is usually
carried out. Altogether, the state
of affairs is very different from what it
used to be. and there is good reason for
thinking that very soon the Louvre will
be the antipodes of the museum which is
notoriously the most loosely guarded in
Paris?the Ethnographical Museum at the
Trocadero. At this museum tiie staff is
so unable to fulfill its duties, being only
a quarter in number of what it should
be. that it is an understood thing that u
score or so of different objects should
disappear in the course of a week or two.
But this does not mean that the nniseum
loses much by the thefts. Most of the
smaller articles are really copies or imitations.
and if by chance a sharp-eyec
visitor tells a keeper that lie has seen
some one put a small Chinese image ir.
his pocket it is as likely as not that he
wiil be met with the answer, "Oh, that
does not matter: that image lias been
stolen six times already this week." But
in the world of pictures, where copies
seldom are more than dim reflections of
the originals, such a procedure car. not be
ooservea. in any case, n is scarcely usely
tliat a modern art gallery will l?e such
an easy prev to unscrupulous people of
predatory minds as was the museum at
Hale some fifty years ago.
Bale Treasures Stolen.
A lettey was found the other day written
by an old French artist concerning
two visits which he made to that museum
at different dates in the earlier half of
the last century. On his first visit he was
shown round by a man from Alulhausen,
who startled him by pocketing the wonderfully
worked key of tne well known
table on which Erasmus is said to have
written many of his works. On being remonstrated
with the man casually explained
that it was an understood thing
that every native of Mulhausen should
bring back some souvenir of Bale when
he returned. "And." he added, "I am
only sorry that it is not winter and that
I have not my overcoat over my arm. for
then I could have taken that small Item- j
brandt on the wall." "That small Rembrandt
on the wall," the artist sa?s in
his letter, was a little masterpiece.
"When 1 visited the museum again, in
18?o." the artist writes, "1 looked for this
picture, but looked in vain. It was not
even in the catalogue."
In proportion as the economic agitation
against high food prices subsides the
activities of the General Confederation of
Labor increase. The opportunity for that
body to exploit the present discontent
for their own revolutionary purposes is
too good to be allowed to slip, and more
meetings have been called in Paris, at
Lyon, at Lorient, at Monteaux and in
other towns An attempt was made to
disturb the markets in some of the suburbs
and in the east end of Paris the
other morning. At meetings held in different
parts of Paris a resolution was
adopted in which the advocacy of a general
strike in case of war was combined
with the protest against the increase in
the cost of living. The next morning
band.? of agitators bore down on various
markets in the poorer quarters of the
lnun. Only at Menilmontant. however,
did they succeed in causing a disturbance.
Since thpy got no support from the general
public and everywhere police were
present in force.
At Mezieres a manifesto has been
published in which the army is insulted.
It is signed by M. Poulain. deputy
for the Ardennes., and M. Boutet, a
member of the counetf general. According
to the Figaro, steps are being
taken to prosecute the authors. M.
lx-roux. a member of the Confederation
of Babor, who was prominent during
the riots at Creil, has been arrested.
M. l,eroux is secretary of the Oise
Trade L'nion. and his arrest is said to
have made a considerable impression.
Severe sentences have been passed at
Iiille, where several rioters were given
six months' imprisonment for striking
or insulting the police.
Plan Monument to Dog.
The French Animals' Friends Society
has opened a subscription iti order to
erect a monument to the brave police
dog 1 Aio, who was killed last year in
defending police officers in a strugglfwith
Apaches. The monument is to be
placed in (he little dogs' cemetery at
Asinleres. where I>eo was buried. It
is hoped at the same time to get
sufficient funds to provide a special
vault for the burial of dogs who perish
in defending the guardians of public
order or in the attempt to save life.
There are already some interesting dog
monuments at Asinleres. including one
to Barry, who, the inscription records.
having saved the lives of forty
people, was killed by the forty-first.
A shocking discovery has been made
at Versailles. it seems that the bed
of I^ouis XIV. which is shown to visitors.
was never slept in by the
grand monarque. never belonged to
him and was not manufactured until
long after his death. An indiscreet
tourist, examining the hangings, read
on them the trade mark of Grand
F re res. But the firm of Grand Freres
only came into existence in 1R10. when
It succeeded to the business of the
court upholsterer, Permon. This dis
eovery lr<1 to further inquiries. which I
have established that the bed which so !
long passed for that of the Hoi Soleil 1
only dates, in fact., from the reign of
Louife Philippe.
TERROR OF SPANISH REVOLT.
%
Foreign Money Said to Have Paid
for Abortive Uprising.
foreign Oorrespondeni g of The Star.
BARCEIXtNA. October 0. 1911.
The civil governor, Senor Portela, said
tlie other day that the late revolutionary
movement, had it succeeded, would have
h<fd more terrible consequences than that
of July, 190P. The revolution was fomented
by foreign capital, he says, nearly
all French.
Its failure is attributed to various
causes. Firstly, the organizers employed
extremists identified solely with anarchist
institutions, and not connected with any
of the workmen's organizations. Secondly.
the movement was precipitated and
exposed by the violent methods of the
revolutionaries themselves. Thirdly, the
radicals belonging to the Lerroux party
have recently remained completely detached
from the general workmen's union,
\\ 11ioli has become nothing more or less
than a Spanish branch of the revolutlona
iv ("on fed oration (Jenerale du Travail in
Paris. Fourthly, the excellent precautions
adopted by Gen. Weyler would, in :
any case, have successfully checked the
movement.
LIMIT ON SWEETHEARTS
MIDSHIPMEN MAY HAVE j
Three to Each Future Admiral, Is
Ruling of the Academic
Board.
ANNAPOLIS, Md., October 16.?The
academic board of the Naval Academy
has taken upon itself the duty of regulat- ;
ing the number of sweethearts each mid- \
shipman shall call his own.
Word was passed to the brigade that
each member would be allowed to take <
three young ladies to the series of hops
this winter and no more. The news j
caused great hilarity among the midshipmen,
and in some cases consternation.
Heretofore each midshipman has been at
liberty to take as many different girls
under his wing as he liked. Some never
were seen with the same young lady
twice.
It is rumored that an order prohibiting
flirting or "the ogling of girls" within the
limits of the academy is to follow. This
will also cause great hardship among the
middies. Ogling is a favorite pastime
Sunday afternoon.
The order relating to the three-and-no- :
more young ladies, whose station in society,
it is said, must be known to the \
officers or the members of the hop com- j
mittee. was brought about by the recent ;
case of Miss Mary Beers, daughter of the :
Yale professor, who was asked to leave :
the floor of the gymnasium because she 1
was in the home of one of the officers
here in the capacity of nursery governess.
THIRSTY AT ATLANTIC CITY I
SEEK IN VAIN FOR OASIS
Popular Ocean Resort Has First Dry
Sunday for a Number
of Years.
ATLANTIC CITY, October !?.?No one
was really happy yesterday in this resort
except the camel. It was a case of "Oh,
such a thirst!"
Bars were closed everywhere, and mes- ;
sengers who were sent around the town ;
to comb the saloons, the cafes and the
beach front hotels could not tind a sin- :
gle oasis in the dry, burning, hot and ;
disagreeable desert. It was supposed
that somewhere down in Arkansas avenue
or over in the back district some
saloonkeeper would get Ids nerve up to ;
the point of handing out a "life pre- !
server." But it was "nothing doing" in j
all the highways, byways, alleys and
lonesome places.
Two Sundays like tills years ago are
remembered by the old inhaoitants. Still,
they do say that even then there were ;
just a few places where a man could
dampen the dust in a parched throat.
Oddly enough, no one knows just howIt
happened. Eighty-nine saloonkeepers
were indicted by a former grand jury,
but that grand jury went out of business
amid the huzzas of all the license holders, j
and naturally it was thought "sanity" 2
would prevail. But along came another ?
grand jury, drawn by Sheriff Enoch L. j
Johnson, who is himself indicted. Mem- ]
hers of this new grand jury have been 1
whispering: "Don't say that this grand 2
jury is a poor one. This is the best 2
grand jury ever. This jury isn't fixed. |
Give us a chance first." 1

We once saw one of these cracker f
lunches as got up l>y a large biscuit con- .
cern in Germany. The paper box contain- '
ed six delicious crackers with a inarma- '
lade filling, and there was an empty com- t
partment for a nice red apple or a couple r
of plurns. which, of course, were added .
by the mother of the child. These school
lunohes, exclusive of the fruit, were sold *
at 5 pfennings, or about Hi cents. t
