Given the downfall of tho French republic, what regime wllf take its place? This may seem a rather puerile question to ask In these days, but it has been asked in Franca, and asked with such point and vehemence that a serious duel has been occasioned by it. The duelists were M.' Paul de Casasgnac, the director of the "Author- Ite," and M. Charles Malrrass, tha direct or of "Action," which, with Its Imposing srray of "King's Hawkers," Is faithful to the Duke of Orleans. And, as M. Malrrass has still another duel on the topic arising out of the question of the Regime, the question Is no longer as 'puerile" as It might appear. In' fact, there is In France today a keen, though Imperceptible, awakening of the old Napoleonic spirit. It is not in Paris that this awakening is most Perceptible. It Is in the south In the Basque provinces and on the Rhine frontiers that memories of Napoleon are being revived. Around the vineyard homestead firesides the grandfathers are telling the story of how their slrea fought with the victor of Austerlitz and Wagram. Others revive the horrors of Moscow, For the name of Napoleon still has a -magnetic ring In provincial France. JOKERS PAINT DOG AND AROUSE GERMANS (By the International Sewa Service.)

In the streets of Mulhouse one fine morning, the au thorities found a tri-color dog. At its birth the dog was white, but It had been painted blue from the head ., to the shoulders, while the rest of the body was red. The police, were much disturbed. It was a case of punishing the dog s in solent owner. Therefore they followed the poodle who wandered through the streets seeking its home.' It stopped in front of the sub-perfecture building and entered. It was at home. It -was the poodle of the sub-perfect of Mulhouse. Some practical. Jokers had seized, the animal, and unknown to its master had painted it with the French "colors. The police have been looking for these prac tical jokers Irut In vain. - . - . By fVatt KiftMif .
