New York, April 25.—A committee, with Medill McCormick, of Chicago, as chairman, will go to Washington as representatives of the American Newspaper Publishers’ Association to urge the passage by the present Congress of legislation putting white paper on the free list. Decision to appoint such a committee was reach- ed at Friday’s session of the White Paper Committee of the association, after a report on the white-paper situation had been read by John Norrie, business manager of the New York Times. Charles W. Knapp, of TheSt. Loule herd will carry a great many of the| Republic, was chosen to succeed him- self as & director in the association. wot the concern declared bankrupt, hia suffered terribly, and thence acrose cafe walter at the Melun ratlway bar, he wore the white apron, the alpaca dress coat (without tallx), the low cut vest, white, stiff shirt front, turn- over collar and “butterfly” black necktle of his trade, French cafe walters are the most standettl!, un- types. They seem to be satisfied to be spectators to the Iife of leisure, pleasure and bright movement in which they move. The cate walter, Rochette, {n the year 1899, seemed to be just Iike his brethren. He was @ young man of 24 years, avid of gratultous cheap pleasures, knocking down drinks, flirting with servant girls on their day out, pocketing tips from the 2- cent bee gratuity to the 20 cent gratification for adroitly passing a love lester. His sole financtal oper- ations consisted {n buying up bad silver pieces to pass on suspecting foreigners. His pockes money was seldom more than the last 2-cent tip he received. Then o peasant uncle died and the young cafe waiter came fn for $1,000 as his heir, It was the only money in his family. And just here is where Rochette showed himeelf different from all other cafe walters. Fifty per cent of them in France would seek to buy a small cafe with their $1,000. To be “patron” —“boss’”— 1s always their vague, dreamy ambi tion. And the other 50 per cent would have methodically blown in their $1,000 on the races, | neglect so mention that one source of reve- nue for cafe waiters in all France ts the clandestine placing of clandes- tine bets with clandestine bookmak- ers at the officlal Paris Mutual prices. The law forbids betting except on the race track; and half the population wants to bet quietly in town; thus cafe walters become the chief inter mediary of a vast underground sys- tem. So, you understand, to be the daily confidant and custodian ot ex- citing sport breeds a desire to place bets on their own account. Rochelle dropped all of this. He dropped his apron, the delights of a dope-life, the lazy spectacular round of his profession and the meritorious ambition to be a “patron.” Rochette put on a business suit of neat tweeds. He went to Paris. He took cheap board. He entered a bus- iness college rather noted for the hard brilliancy of the students {¢ has turned out; and there Monsier Roch- ette worked with feverish diligence, all day and half the night, to fit him- self for “affairs,” as the French say, which fs not exactly what we mean by “business,” but close to it. In America, the land of correspond- ence schools, a face-about like this may not seem much. In France it is simply phenomenal, one might say morbid. This was in 1899-1900. In 1901 we have a glimpse of Mon- sleur Rochette, placed as capable and trusted bookkeeper with the then fa- mous banker, Berger, founder and floater of companies. When Berger was obliged to take flight the young clerk, Rochette, be-| good definition of an angel.—Wash- ing on the spot, behind the scenes, ‘ington Herald. } had himeelf appointed recelver.
