APRIL 12,1918. VULGARITY AND CRIME. inrillbsnt French Man .of •Lettere •Raises Interestings Point. Alfred Capus, writing in the Paris rigaro, raises a very pretty point when, he maintains that Bolo Pasha's open vulgarity must be held largely eeeponsible for his career of treas sons, low stratagems, and spoils. The French Academician restates Stend- baps proposition: "Le manque de gout melte au crime." By this he does not mean to intimate that every- body who eats pease with a knife is necessarily a Benedict Arnold. Nor does he hint at the reverse ef the proposition, that everybody Whose man/lens are perfect, is therefore, ape° facto, a scholar and a gentle - lama But he senses at the bottom or Bole'e villany the same cheap vul- garity which characterized his man- ners: "His -very accentgesture, pose, everything about him, is false and mean." Such an individual, thinks capos, so falsely strung, so entirely without any idea of the .proper way to conduct himself, even in life's minor 'contingencies, must necessar- ily, given the opportunity, turn crim- inal, crime being the failure to shape one's course in consonance with „the eternal proprieties. It is true that France has suffered particularly from the acts of vulgar criminals in the last seven decades. That has been, naturally enough, the result of her 'tendency toward democ- racy, iia crime as in everything else. Napoleon III., "looking out at you," as Hay wrote, "from the dirty win- dows of his eyes," was perhaps her greatest parvenu transgressor. The Second Empire was a vulgarian one, a money -mad, ostentatious, cheat-) af- fair, which collapsed like a house made out tf gilt staff. Aad the own- er of the boot that kicked it over, and the owner of the boot that is now kicking civilized Europe to pieces belongs equally to the species vulgar With the tinsel magnates of the little Napoleon's .time. Ask any hoteIkeeper in Europe, outside of Germany, which guests gave him the most trouble by their loud and osten- tatious conduct, their complaints, and - their demands, and he will answer - you unhesitatingly, "the Germans." So at both ends . Of a half -century France has suffered from the blight of the nouveau riche. And in .between times many of her lesser scandals have been caused by cheap rogues of this variety, the Madame Humberts of an easily gullible age. So that, from the point of ;view of concrete instances, Ca.ptis , has a certain amount ,of evidence at his beck and call. MANLEY Get your seats for "The Whip."

This morning's offerings were • 600 cattle, 20 sheep -and lambs, 800 hogs and '700 calves. Trading was rather slow at t'he be- ginning, there being a hesitancy noted about prices. The market was easier and prices were down in some instances. Offerings of cattle were prety good e and a fair "demaind ele- veloped. The -market for small meats, how- ever, was rather quiet, with prices steady. Hog li were easier, in sympathy with other Canadian centres.

Union Stock Yards, Toronto, April 9th. - Loads of 'choice heavy steers, which found values between 512.50 and 513„ and good heavy steers, ,which 'sold from 512 to $12.25, were more in evidence than usual in an- aver- age Monday offering and met a firm to stronger trade. God to choice butchers were also in demand at steady values, but medium and common cattle were draggy, and in some cases 10 to 15c cheaper than last Thursday. The top price paid was 513.50 for one straight load of cohice heavy steers. As a result of a burst water main, which prevented the watering of cattle in sev tr II alleys, there was a suggestion of a slower trade all over, but this was not the case where cattle, with anyfinish were concerned. Drovers Would not permit their cattle to go on the 'weigh scales without their fill of water, and for a time the best cattle, though sold early in the forenoon, were not -weighed up until noon and later. There were differences of opinion as to any advance in the prices for good to choice heavy steers and butchers cattle out a rise of 10 to 15c, for some of ehe very best might about hit the mark. Butchers in search of supplies complained that some drovers were asking extortionate prices. Several choice bulls and fat cows cashed in as high as 11c. In these cases the quality was very good, but good to choice cattle in both sections met a slightly firmer trade. Canners were steady tied active. All the good cattle being picked up for kills ing aurposes, there was little left for the stocker and feeder business, though a few choice short -keeps sold from $11 to 511.40, and 700 to 800 pound stockers from 39.75 to 810.25. Prices were, if anything, a shade firmer, Grass caws sold from $8 to 58.50. Calves were actvie and steady, with the offering moderate in number, but there was the usual scarcity of ;sheep and lambs. -for the time of the year. Hogs continued steady at $21 fed and -wat- ered, and 521.25 weighed off cars. The receipts were 158 cars, with 3,080 cattle, 892 calves, 1680 hogs and 26 sheep and lambs.
