A CITY OF SUNSHINE AND SIN, Twenty-four Thousand Men Required to Suppress Crime and Protect Property in the Tamons French Capital The Spy System The Detectives. The complex and powerful organization known as the Peris police force is made up of 24,000 men, divided as follows: The civic police, including the various branches of the service entitled guardians of the peace, gensdarmea and sergents da ville. Political and detective agents. CHIEF OF DETECTIVES GOROT. Two legions of the military garde repub licaine numbering 6,000 foot and 2,000 horse. The military corps of sapeurs pompiers, specially trained to firemen's duty and numbering 1,500 men and officers. Supplementary, and subject to the or ders of the prefect of police in case of great emergency, the military garrison of. Paris. The present prefect of police is M. Loze, who went into office Dec.' 31, 18S9. The ar bitrary power conferred upon him is enormous, no divides the details of the work among a number of chiefs who bear the following titles: The chef des services de la surete, com manding the brigade of ununiformed de tectives. The chef d'attribution des hotels garnies, who, besides suppressing clandestine gam ing houses, watches over all political refu gees. The chef d'attribution des moeurs, charg ed with the regulation of houses of ill fame. The chef d'attribution des voitures, who supervises the regulation of the public cab service. The brigades centrales, composed of men stationed at headquarters for the perform- POLICE3IEX IN StTJIJIER AND WINTER DRESS, ance of such duties as fall to the detectives under command of Inspector Byrnes in Xew York city. The chef de service de la navigation pos sesses authority over every boat plying on the Seine, and has power to regulate what it shall bring and in what manner it shall discharge its cargo. The chef de service de la salubrito has dominion over drains of every description and all plumbing arrangements. He also directs tho inspection of the gas service. The chef de service des halles et marches looks after tho provisions of Paris. Besides these divisions of duty and super vision there, is still another branch of in spection called the fixed or arrondissement eystoin. Tho city is divided into twenty arrondissements, and each arrondissement into four quarters. That makes eighty quarters, and in each there is a police com missary who has a red lantern over his of fice door. The work of the uniformed guardians of tho peace and gensdarmes is similar to that performed by the police of every civil ized city, and includes the duties of pre serving oixler and conserving property. But they form, as indicated above, only a small part of the great force that moves i iMmi , mm&w&k SVj? X A GLIMPSE OF THE JIOBGUE. obedient to the will of the prefect. The branch of the service of which the world at large has heard the most includes that body of men directed by the chef de la surete, those famous slenthhounds on the trail of crime, the Parisian detectives. The present chef is M. Goran, who received his appointment at the becinnias of the present year as a reward for" daring and successful labors. Connected with the detective bureau, be sides the recognised agents, is a large num ber of employes called agents de la police secrete, wio are provided with cards which in cases of danger will secure them the protection of the regular police. Each has some ostensible trade or profession, but in fact is neit'ear more nor less than a spy, who daily makes his written report to the prefect of the sRyings aad doings of :ho-e with whom he assacates. These records. isg aar criminal lie aggregate, are ainfcabetical- ., so that when any one comes tQ3 front or is compromised in affair tho unrarmns hare so (fa , a14 '' I ?

Some years ago, when Caussidiere was made pre fect of police, knowing that under mo narchical rule he had long been watched, he inquired at the office over which he pre sided for his own "dossier," as it is called. On reading it he exclaimed with astonish ment: "It records not only my actions but my secret thoughts." Again, in the case of an application for the arrest of a British subject whose eccen tricities in France had been construed into insanity, and who in fact, says the chron icler of the incident, was mad, the police of Paris refused a warrant for his apprehen sion; and on being pressed to issue one on the ground that at the very moment in question he was actually conducting him self before them as a madman, they pro duced his dossier composed by their own agents showing not only how much he had drunk, but the places and houses at which, on that very day, he had, previously to appearing before them, swallowed seven glasses of brandy. The liquor, they de clared, and not the man's brain, appeared to be at fault, and the application for his detention was refused. Without going into particulars it may be said that every detail in the life of a Paiisian resident is subjected to the scru tiny of a spy, and there is a system of reg istration from which neither the president of the republic nor the lowest fallen wom- EXECUTION PLACE AT LA ROQTJETTE. an can escape. Each female of openly bad repute passes her life as "une fille in scrite," and is constantly undej surveil lance. Under no circumstances may she look out of the windows of her residence, and she must not walk in tto gardens of the Palais Royal, the Tuileries, the Lux embourg or the Jardin du Roi. She must always wear a bonnet, dress in decent cos tume and possess no clothes that are "too gaudy." But despite all these repressive regula tions, the incessant scrutiny of unsuspected spies and the activity of the known agents of tho police, Paris still remains a city of reckless gayety, hideous crimes and gen eral moral turpitude. Any one who thinks this statement too sweeping may verify itu truth by a perusal of "Mxn Musee Crimi nel," a book recently published, of which M. Mace, ex-chief of tho Paris detective bureau, is tho author. Its pages reek with the record of cold blooded brutality and unaccountable bestiality. TVhat is the result of this disregard of morality and of life? La Roquette swarms with prisoners, many waiting the atten tions of Papa Deibler, the headsman of Paris, and tho famous morgue is never cleared of corpses. On the slabs of that huge dead house there were displayed dur ing the year 1G39 the corpses of DOG men, women and children who had mot violent ends. To indicate the desperato extremes to which tho French criminal will go it is only necessary to cite tho world exe crated names of Pranzini and Prado, who were professional slayers and despoilers of dissolute women; of Troppman, who killed a mother and her five children; of Balthasar, who assassinated his mistress and suspended her nude corpse from a hook on the wall forced into her breast, making her look, as the official report taid, "like a veal prepared for dressing," and of Eyraud. recently captured in Cuba, whose deeds as a strangler are known wherever a newspaper has penetrated. So it would appear that despito num bers, elaborate system, constant espionage and unremitted activity the enormous po lice army of Paris is hardly able to make a record as conservers of order that can stand comparison with that of any largo constabulary body in England or of any force in a big American city. Farewell to Lady Godiva. Another sensational tale of the middle ages is now shown to be a fiction. It is as serted that the ungarbed Lady Godiva never rode through the "gabled street" of Coventrj' "for her people's sake." Mr. Sidney Hartland, an English writer, de clares that the heroine's name was really Godgifu, and then adds that she never performed the feat ascribed to her, and that if she did it was not through a street of quaint gabled buildings, for there were only wooden hovels in Coventry at the time, and they were single storied and had no windows. It follows from this that Peeping Tom is also a myth. Poetry Versus Reality. Chappie You know we invited Col. Plunkctt, who used to be a blacksmith, to hear our class give tho "Anvil Chorus" the other night. The fellows were got up in red shirts and the stage was turned into a real forge. His Friend You don't say! Moved the old colonel to tears, I suppose? Chappie Not exactly. He simply said "rats." American Grocer. Naming the "Walf.s of London. Mr Tucker is a poor guardian, of the city of London. He recently raised a tremen dous row because the clerk of the board had named a foundling William Tucker Fias bury. A subsequent inquiry showed that most of London's waifs have received the names of distinguished men, and there is a demand for a reformat u in the system of labelinc the little unfortunates. The life of a true man cannot De a nie or mere pleasure; it must be above all things a life of duty. The one who will be found in trial capa ble of great acts of love is ever tlie one who is always doing considerate small ones. Industry is essentially social. Xo man can improve either himself or his neighbor without neighborly help; and to better the world is to set the world to work together. The secret of the so-called lucky man's luck will with some exceptions, of cours, be found in something he has thoughtfully, calculatingly done, and not in a jumble of accidents. Labor is life, sneccssf al labor is life and gladness; and successful labor with, high aims and just objects brings the fullest, truest and happiest life that can be lived upon the earth. Xo man can say whether he is rich or poor by turning to his ledger. It is the heart that makes the torh rich. He 13 rich or poor according to what he is, not accord ing to what he has.

Moztreal Star. MINTS FOR JtWEUEKS. The following alloy is said to be a good substitute for silver; it resembles old silver and works like it: Tin: 4.03; lead, 3.45; cop per, 55.78; nickel, 13.41; zinc, 23.20; iron, a trace. The best method for cleaning jewelers' and -watchmakers' brushes is to wash them in a strong soda water. If the backs are wood you must favor that part as much as possible, for, being glued, the water may injure them. It is well known that all glass jars are not true. Xo doubt they often cause errors in the rate of regulators. The advantage of the iron jar is that it can be bored out perfectly smooth and true, thus getting rid of all inequalities. Xo errors from that cause can therefore arise. Xever use a particlo of soap on your sil verware, as it dulls the luster, giving the article more the appearance of pewter than of silver. When it needs cleaning, rub it with a piece of soft leather and prepared chalk, the latter made into a kind of paste with pure water, as water not pure may contain gritty particles. Composition files are frequently used by watchmakers and other metal workers for grinxiing and polishing, and the color of which resembles silver, are composed of 8 parts copper, 2 parts tin, 1 part zinc, 1 part lead. They are cast in forms and treated upon the grindstone; the metal is very hard and therefore worked with dif ficulty with the file. Temper small steel parts in the follow ing simple manner: Take a thin piece of copper, say from an old dial, scrape soap upon it, bend it together and lay tho arti cle between; then bend fhe sheet firmly to gether, make it red hot upon a coal, and afterward anneal it in oil. Not even the most delicato object will warp in this inan nrT. Jewelers' Circular. The angriest person in a controversy Is the oro most 1'ibl to ba in tbe wronir. St. Jyonis to Colorado via Wichita. Commencing Sunday, July 13.1SD0, the Missouri Pacific railway will run through sleeping cars from St. Louis via Pleasant Hill, Rich Hill, Fort Scott and Wichita to Geneseo and from thence to Pueblo. Colo rado Springs and Denver. This change was made on account of a great many peo ple from the east goine to Colorado being desirous of going via Wichita. The train will fctop heie two hours, giving all a chance to view the "Peerless Princess" and still land passengers in Colorado same time as if thev had gone via Kansas City. It also gives the citizens of Wichita sleep ing car service from here to Colorado. Re turning, it gives us through sleeping car service Wichita to St. Louis, and gives tlie Colorado people a chance to go east via Wichita. This change will undoubtedly be appreciated by the tr.ivelinp: public, and especially by the citizens of Wichita. If you are going east or west go via the pop ular new through route. Through chair and sleeping car service. Xew route jut completed between Fort Scott and Rich Hill goes through the finest mineral and agricultural country in the west.

When all were seated at the banquet table some of the "low grades" became envious of the queen's charms and popularity and ciied out "We are as good as Imperial." The royal court messenger, Prince Tally-Ho, arrived at that moment in his coach and proclaimed the verdict of the people: "Im perial is supreme. Long live Imperial." Then the low bread rebels made rye faces and said "Our cake is dough; we knead no more. Long live Imperial." 15 tf Two 3lncliI"orTo. Being thirty miles the shortest line and 45S miles the best one, people insist on buy ing tickets to Chicago via. the Santa Fe route. This has given our two night trains Kansas Ciry to Chicago, a heavy business. To further accommodate our friends, we have just put on a new through express, carrying day coaches, free chair cars, and Pullman sleepers at night, leaving Kansas City 10 a. m, and arriving in Chicago 7:25 a. in. Passengers on this new train have a daylight ride across Missouri and Iowa. Remember one thiug, that it makes no dinerence whether you get into Kansas City morning or evening, you will find a Santa Fe train on the track ready to take you to Chicago or intermediate points in quicker time than any competing line.
