London papers rejxjrted that James
Rryco had refused a peerage and would
fa to the United States as ambassador
without changing his name, and thus b
the first plain citlren to represent hla
country nt Washington.
Just as it came from tho French "Cham
ber of Deputies, tho new church and state
separation act was finally passed by the
Senate, 100 to 100. This was directed
against those churchmen who had re
fused to accept tho original separation
law of 1005, and all clergy who refused
under orders from tho Pope to give over
possession of their residences and church
properties to tho state do so on penalty
of losing pensions. While the priests have
disregarded the law providing for re
ligious associations, the laity hwe made
the necessary declarations to protect the
churches and other places of worship.
It is presumed that the other ecclesi
astical buildings will bo rented to the
bishops and priests at a nominal fiirure.
just as tho clergy who have said most
without making a legal declaration to
hold a public meeting have had only
nominal fines Imposed upon them.
The French minister of finance has
ordered the mints to substitute on all
coin the words "liberty, equality and fra
ternity" for the old device "God protect
France." Minister of Education Hriand
announced that the church buildings taken
possession of by the state would be de
voted to educational and museum pur
poses, the seminary of St. Hulplce at
Paris becoming part of the Luzenbourg
museum, me expelled sisters of the As
sumptionlsts order left Paris for Itel-
glum, In the midst of a throng of sym
pathizers, who shouted: "Down with the
Free Masons."
HOOT AT HUMAN TAKQETB.
Frenchmen nrln- nioodleaa Duellna
to an Kxact Science.
Shooting nt human targets merely
for tho swrt derived from It and as a
test of marksmanship, In other words,
bloodless dueling or fencing with pis-
tols, has Ihjcii made irosslhlo through
the Invention by a Frenchman of n
harmless wax projectile. This new di
version Is really no moro serious than
fencing with swords and has that spice
of realism In It that tends to make any
sport popular.
The new bullet Is an Ingenious de
vice ami required n great deal of ex
periment before being perfected. The
situation was thus: A heavy projec
tile must necessarily have a wounding
force, n light one loses Its precision
and a soft bullet will be changed In
shapo and describe on Irregular trajec
tory; therefore a harmless projectile
to bo effective must differ from nil
these. The Frenchman's product Is a
spherical ball of wax-fat, with a small
charge, and In tests tw6nty-four balls
wero lodged In succession In n rectan
glo four by live Inches nt twenty yards.
At n six-day tournament held In tho
Tullerles the efficiency of the wax bul
let was demonstrated.
Tho combntantH wenr thick screens
for ninsks, with heavy glass over tho
eyes, and wear thick clothing to pre-
vent bruising from tho Impnct of tho

of the combat, keeping his gnzo Ilxed
uon n metronome which bents eighty
to 100 times a minute, mnkes the In
quiry aw In nn actual duel, "Aro you
ready?" and when they reply "Yen" tho
director, timing his words exactly to
tho beatB of the pendulum, cries, "Flro
one two three i"
At the command "Fire!" tho adver
saries raise their wcaixms and shoot.
Tho two shots must lm niiiile before
tho command "Three 1" Ab tho pnr
tlelpantH In these trials wero experts
they made a good average, hitting their
innii six or seven times out of eight
shots. Although more than 1,000 balls
wero fired, there was not the slightest
accident.
Tho wax bullets can be used In npart
incuts as well as In the open nlr with
out tho Inconvenience of the lend ball
of small caliber, which will probably
lend to Its Introduction Into tho armies
of tho various nations for prnctlco
shooting. Popular Magazine.
BESULTS NOT AS PLANNED.
2Vatnre Turns Assouan Dam Into a
Joko tin KuKlanrf.
Kvory year sees now harncssluK of
nnturo's forces by man for his uses.
Hut Mother Karth seems to hnvo a
sense of humor and gratifies It by
turning man's devices Into means for
hlri discomfiture. The dnm of Assouan
Is tho latest humlllntlUK Instance of
n tremendous achievement producing
results opposlto to those planned.
That mighty engineering work was
to be tho monument to the Hrltlsh oc
cupancy of Egypt. It wiir to end nil
famlnu In the Nile valley. There was
to Iki no further dependence upon tho
chances of tho seasons for tho enrich
enlng overllows. Held within Asnoti
nu's ntnmmoth reservoirs, tho fertiliz
ing flood could ho released whenever
needed. Tho Nile crops would bo per
fect and tho peoplo happy each year,
Instead of nt such Intervals as tho
whim of tho river willed.
All' tho nations applauded England .
when tho work that was to muko
Egypt a land of plenty was comploted.
Hut naturo had not been consulted
with sufllcleut care. And to-day tho
Egyptians aro damning the dam of As
souan with oriental fervor.
Outbursts of futilities, aggrieved ho
cniisfl somo of tho most sacred relies
of the past hnvo been submerged might
bo (Unregarded. Hut there aro moro
practical reasons for the growing dis
content. .Wnter, ,onco an occasional
boon, now Ih had In plenty. Hut tho
crops nro not what' they wero when
tho Nllo attended to Its own overflow
ing , Grain Is scantier, nnd cotton, tho
country's most valuable product, Is de
teriorating, Its onco unequaled flbor np
pronchlng every yenr nearer similarity
with tho moro brittle, least costly
American staple.
Tho explanation Is simple. It was
not tho Nllo flood hut tho fertilizing
matter held In solution that rlchem.'d
tho soil. Thoso properties nro pre
cipitated when the water Is held stag
nant behind tho barrier at Assouan.
England, thinking Its work finish id,
finds that It has only begun n moro
difficult task, Dnmo Nnturo has had

"Oh, Tom," exclaimed the fair young
