BEAUREPAIRE EXTRA PrED.
How the Dreyfus-Hating Editor of
Echo de Paris Was Taken In.
The Paris Figaro published a few
days ago an account of o clever trick
that some one had played upon that
arch Dreyfus hater. Quesnay de Beau-1
repaire, und the story in given as told
by the perpetrator himself.
it is well known that Boaiircpalrt
still declares that there exists positive
proof of Dreyfus' guilt, which he will
? produce before tin.' Renncs'court-mar
lial at the proper moment. But he docs
not pretend that he holds this proof,
I for in bis Echo de Paris he it* con
Istantly invoking Borne one else lo com*
forward at last with the incriminating
documents, and receive the blessings
of his imperiled country.
At last, according n> tli > Figaro's
story, a stranger called at the residence
of Beaurepalrc ami said that he wished
to confer with him on an extremely
important, but secret, matter. He was
at once admitted, "i have a commu?
nication for you." snid the stranger in
a low, earnest voice, "of the greatest
consequence. I have come to place
weapons in your hand so that you can
go to Rennes and with one blow utterly
destroy Dreyfus and the Dreyfusards."
Beaurepaire caught Are at once.
"Have you actual written proofs of
Dreyfus' guilt: 1 mean in his own hand?
writing?" he asked hurriedly.
"What I have." replied the visitor In
a deep whisper, gazing furtively around
the room, "is complete, indubitable,
crushing!"
"Where are these proofs?''
"They are m cure in a place which I
alone can visit."
"Ami what are they'.'" '
The stranger goes on to describe tlie
papers, which he declares wer- ail
written by Dreyfus and his friends in
the ?real conspiracy, the full extent of
which these documents will disclose,
I while Beaurepaire should have all the
honor.
But the latter pleads with the stran?
ger, for particulars regarding the pa?
pers, especially w here they are deposit?
ed. He replied that they were in Basle,
and he then disclosed tlie important se?
Cret that Basle, and not Brussels, was
the headquarters of the German Secret
Service. And then the visitor modestly
rcqeustcd Beaurepaire to advance him
money for his travelling expenses to
Basle. But Beaurepaire wanted time
to raise the money, and begged tlie
stranger to call again the next day. He
was there, :1ml received 250 francs,
agreeing to leave Bails that night.
After selecting fictitious names, so
that their correspondence might not
fall into other hands, the stranger de?
parted for Basle, lie was to sign Iiis
letters as Karl. But. a!.is. Karl did
not pet so far from Paris as Basle. He
spent the following day with a. friend
and his young wife at a. pleasure resort
in Paris, and told them about his ex?
perience with Beaurepaire. The story
was, of course, greatly enjoyed, ami the
joke was regarded so good that they
concluded to continue the fun at poor
Beaurepaire'a expense.
A few days later there appeared nt
the bouse w here Beam pair had directed
Karl's letters to be delivered a woman
heavily Veiled, bearing a letter from
Karl. He wrote that he was at Basle.
He had secured two of the Important
documents, but owing to difficulties
which had not been anticipated, he had
nol yet been able to get the rest of
the papers which must bo had to com?
plete the proof against Dreyfus. Two
hundred francs more must be sent at
once. The l.uly called again in three
days, and got Benurcpalre's answer to
Karl's letter, together with the ?i?0
fra ncs.
The letter was as follow.":
Wednesday, June 2s, noon.
I have received Karl's letter. Let him
lose no time. We are counting the
days. I send 200 francs for expenses.
If he brings tlie promised Irrefragable
in n il'?I_M ill at once anneal to my
friends, who already know of the mat?
ter, ami he shall receive a magnificent
rc ward.
THE MAN WHOM KALL CALLED
TWICE.
In a few days tlie veiled lady again
eaii.-d. she .seemed to bo greatly ex?
hausted, and sank fainting into a. chair.
She had just reached tire city by rail,
bringing a second letter from Karl. He
wr >te that before returning it would be
necessary for him to go to Stuttgart to
get another important document, pfter
which iie would visit Brussels for the
purpose of having all the papers pho?
tographed. As soon as this was done
he would return to Paris, bringing the
precious documents in the soles of his
she. s. And at St. Louis a representa?
tive of Beaurepaire should meet him
and take them. Tins agent should sim?
ply say "Karl," and hand him a s-al
el note from Beaurepaire. But Karl
added that it would require 300 francs
to carry him through.
Beaurepaire sent the money, making
?II told T.'.O francs, and he called Karl's
attention to the fact that he was a
poor man. and that such a sum of
money was not easy tor him to raise,
yet, for the sake of the cause he was
ready to make even a. greater sacrifice
In this same letter to Karl he ? gged
him not to bring copies, but the origi?
nal papers, and he promised in person
to meet him, because, he said, he
couldn't trust anybody. For soon days
nothing further was heard from Kail
mil Beaurepaire began 10 grow a litt;,
anxious. At last, lie received another
letter. It was as follows:
Please Und inclosed 750 francs, the
sum you advanced for my traveling ex?
penses. 1 haye such a poor memory
that I erred in making my journey, f ?
nstead of going to Switzerland, I got
no farther than Mcubon. 1 beg you to
p.u.: .ii the little trick which 1 took the
liberty to play on you. But you are
sick, and I administered such ii reme?
dy as 1 thought for your goo.I.
KARL.
Ii is not known what Beaurepaire
s.ii.l upon the receipt ot" this lei tor, but
when the story came out ail Paris
laughed at the poor fellow.
it seems almost incredible that such
things could have really happened at
this time, yet the story I.s a fa. 1. ami
the Figaro published facsimiles of the
correspondence. Beaurepaire, while ad?
mitting tliat the Figaro's account of
the affair was correct, devotes six
columns Ji Use Echo de Paris to s.iuw
Ing that he is a heroic offering of the
International syndicate which it* trying
to save Dreyfus.
HOW TO ROLL A S1I.K UMBRELLA.
To bo fashionable the silk umbrella
must not ho so tightly rolled that It ;
resembles a cm.-, but it must be re?
membered that unless it Is properly
rolled it will b >on com.' t.? grief and the
silk'show signs of "cutting." Before
beginning to roll shake out the silk;
until no part of it is confined between,
the ribs, but all hangs free. Then place
the top of the handle In the p.tlm of the
hand, with the fingere closed to form
a circle. With the tight band, palm
down, grasp the lips of the ribs: turn
the umbrella from you with the right
hand, at the same time turning the left
hand toward you with a downward in ?
tion. Then bold the umbrella firmly
with the left hand, while with the right |
you take a fresh grasp tit the same!
place ae before tind turn, tnr.il the left;
hand readies tit - tight: then, when the'
strap or ribbon secured, the umbrella'
will be perfectly smooth, with every;
fold re it and snug an i the tips in tin
orderly circle near the handle. When
carefully rolled in till* manner the silk;
will lie firm and smooth, and there will'
be no danger of Irregular cuts from
crushing at the folds.
