U. S. WOMEN LACK HEART,
FRENCH PAINTER ASSERTS
Are Not Constitutionally Sentimental, Declares the Marquise
de Fraysseux Mazicres on Visit Here
The American woman makes a splen
did wife from a plctori.il standpoint.
iter Deaun ot lizure anil her ability
to wear lovely clothes tire unsurpassed, i
one can give to ner iiusuanii ine neneni
of n mentality developed fnr beyond her
jenrs. She can outplay him at an.v ut
Ills sportsmanlike games.
Hut given all thexe remarkable quali
ties, the American woman niis'-es out
In just one. She lack
h in heart. She
ml the depth ot
cannot give her iiusba
feeling the French woman gives be
cause constitutionally she is not senti
mental.
The American man comes In for the
same indictment. He will wor,k hard
to make monev to hnish clothes on his
wife, but his beurt is in his business.
None other than the Maiqulse de
Finjsseu' t Mnzleres, noted French
painter nn'l guest of Mrs. Hnrn C.
Thnjer, of llnverford, expressed these
views. Tho expression came in wii
most muslc.il French diction nH the
Marqulse sat quite infornvilly in the
library of the Thujcr home and talked
briefly of her views of America.
Famous Ancestry'
The Marquise is particularly attract
ive. She is especially illustrious of an
cestry, her father, Monsieur do
rr.ij.sM'iix, painter, witter and in
cntor, having .served lis aide-de-camp
to the Minister of .the Marine under
Napoleon III. He was also a particu
lar favorite of Fmpress F.ugcnie. Her
mother was a daughter of the Countess
of Huutpoiil and connected with the
family of Cnstellanu Ksparros, which
makes the Marquise a iclatho of the
Count IJonl De Cnstel'mr.t, the first
husband of Anna (Jould, Madame de
Sevigne was thu grand -aunt of the
Mnrqulse.
The Fiench visitor comes here with
the reputation of Inning painted 200
portraits of famous personages thinugh

It was the subject of the beauty of
American women that led thoMnrquUc
to the discussion of their lack of senti
mentality. "They have remarkable figures," sin;
said, "tho kind that make wondeiful
pictures, Thej are chic and the smart
ones wear their clothes wonderfully. I
maol at their spot Umanship and at
their intere-t in charities."
"How do the rank us wlcs?" was
the question asked.
The Marquise, who woie llesb-colored
blouse and plaited red skirt, both vastly
In coming to her, scowled a bit and then
replied :
"Let me explain. They do not hnve

their heatts.
"The American man Is the mmc. II"

much with the sentimental side of
marriage.
"The Frenchman Ah, he is all

what his wife Is thinking about. He

of guilty from tho moment they began
to deliberate.
Mr. Gordon was advised that upon
retiring to their rooms one of the jurors
immediately remarked : "Well, I guess
wo stand eleven to one for n guilty ver
dict. You have the wrong idea. I
think a copper biing so bndly under
paid is entitled to indulge in a little
graft, and if ho is lucky ennuch to cet
some he should bo commended and not
prosecuted and sent to jail for it.
These views were not shared by the
other members, who tried in every man
ner to convince this juror that ho had
the wrong idea, but they were unable
to swerve this obdurate juror, who held
out until 10 o'clock that night, when
the jury, because of the women, were
Instructed to return to court whether
thev had agreed or not.
Mr. Gordon hns Investigated these
reports and finds that thev are true.
Sevcrlno is charged, whtlo a police
man, with hnving taken ?.'l.') from Lulgl

CLAIMS LACK 'OF POWER
The Philadelphia Itapld Transit Co.
cannot be compelled to build uny ex
tensions to its lines anywhere, accord
ing to answer which it made todnv to
complaint of the f tilted Business Men's
und Cliveden Imp'ovemcnt Associations.
A few weeks ago the organintlons
made complaint to the Public Service
Commission uguinxt continuance of the
present fare rliurgctl by the company
and nlso of the service which it was
giving the cltj. It wns contended by
the organisations thnt, nlthoiigh the
company carried 51 per tent more pas
sengers In 1020 thun in 11)15. it operated
fewer .car miles.
In iU reply todaj the P. It. T. con
tends that it is a motor power company
and hns no corporate power to build
now lines or extension to existing lines,
nnd therefore cannot bo compelled under
the public sen lee law to do so.
It wns nlso lontemled by the company
thnt tho question of fares or extension
of lines cannot be discussed until the
controversy oer the uuderljing com
pany rentals hns been disposed of.
C. Oscar Benslej , counsel for the
complainant companies, said today the
contentions iaIW by the company were
unwarranted He asser"vl the Superior
Court in n decision which denied juris
diction of the Public Service Commis
sion over the underljing companies
clearly intimnted the company could be
made to respond to any orders regarding
rates nnd service.
"The last Lecrislnture thrnucri its in-
difference to the rights of the people,"
said Mr. liuisley, "has left the City
helpless ns fur as dealing with the com
