I had been "in Paris for a couple" of months, ; living ;at a family hotel and knbeking : about at my; leisure, - when I made the acquaiatance .of Felix Duchene, as he called himself.- He w as a man .of about 30, and, though a Frenchman - from head1 to, heel, he spake English; fairly well. : He was not a man whom I should have select ed as a. friend, and yet tnere was a something about him which interested me7;He had traveled extensively, met witb many, adventures and was a good talker. I came to know him as a man of nefve and courage, and, though I f eared" Jie would turn out to be a para site, nothing of the sort happened. He seemed to. have plenty of money of his own and never asked f or"the loan of a franc. . . Z::- I uad known Duchene for three or four' weeks -when we visited a dance hall on one of the outer boulevards one night. The place was a resort for tough men and bad women and prom ised a phase; of Parisian life I had not THE FELLOW STRUGGLED FURIOV&LY AST) . .CUT MY ARM. . ,-, . yet met. We found a rough crowd indeed, and the evening was not half oyer when a burly; big fellow deliber ately picked a quarrel with me. I was giving him the worst of It . when he drew a knife. and rushed upon me. Duchene, who was standing quietly by. knocked he scoundrel senseless, . and, to my surprises we: were not molested by theC half : dozen friends of the Yic- tlm who had been urging him to fln- islj me. I came to know later on that the whole' thing was a put up Job, but I looked upon it then as a brave action on the part of my, acquaintance and gave him my gratitude and friendship. I had never questioned him as to why- be . was In . Paris, . where or ' how he lived or what aim he had in life, and he had .never dropped a hint. I had a se.cret belief that be was' a gambler and a sharper, but' go. me he was as straightforward as could be hoped for. About two weeks after, the event at the dance.; hall Duchene . told me Jus story, or a part of it. He was a pro fessional gambler, or had been up to a-few months before. he met me." Then his eyesfght had gone back on him and he had been obliged to abandon-the business. 1 -bad observed that he was nearsighted and : had been obliged "to favor his eyes. - ' y A year before meeting me Duchene and a partner had "roped" a rich young fellow: into a game and skinned him out of jvhat would le about $50,009 in" American money., uney were then oc cupying rooms in a certain house he in dicated, and, fearing trouble- from the victim, who had declared himself de frauded, the money had been hidden ander the floorT Trouble came. Both men were arrested, and, while Duchene got a. year in prison, the other man died of pneumonia; while waiting his trial. - On leaving prison- Duchene at once took1 steps to secure; his money, but found the floor In possession of an ar tificial flower maker who held a lease. The place could not- be entered and searched,- and the $50,000 still ; rested beneath the nbor of the front room. It would take $1,500 t buy the lease and oust the flower maker and another $500 to put in a, stock of something to throw the police off the scent. ; Duchene could not -raise the money, nor had he - yet met a man he gared trust. . His propo sition to me was that I furnish the $2, 000 4 receive $10,000 of the hidden money as my. reward." Had be offered to go halves think J, should have look ed upon U-as a "plant" and thrown It over, but In offering me a sixth portion he seemed to 6how good business tact It was a big return on the Investment- big enough, to satisfy any one and I gave him a favorable answer at once. He hid: already , sounded the nower maker as to the lease, and If my mon ey was raised the papers could be sign ed three days later. I had a good bit of. cash at my bankers, and on the sec ond day after hearing Duchene's story I drew cut $2,000 In gold anq puacea the bag In my trunk. Next day the pa- rteis wwr tx be' eigtid, and a week lat er the floor would b In cur possession 'ftidt night the two of us attendefj riiA theater and afterwardhad supper, and. I haven't the slightest doubt thst my wine was drugged. Wbiie i was not made helpless, my head, seemed as his as a barrel. I could hardly keep my eyes open, and if Duchene had not mo in a rab and instructed the dilver I should never, have found my way to the hotel. I had to be beipea to my room, a:nd I fell upon the bed, dressed as I wasv ana was msuuitij &6leep; ijjad been asleep two hours when I awoke as keen as a ioi. effects of the drug naa vamsa wu my legs all right again. I was fully -Undressed and ready to get between the sheets when my ear , caught a sound from under the bed." I at once stooped down for a look,. and my eyes rested upon -a man lying on the broad of his back. I had him out in a second. It seemed to me as if I had five times my ordinary strength, and, though the fellow struggled furiously and "cut my arm with a knife, I grasped his throat and choked him till he lay like one dead. It was only when I had struck a light that I found the Intruder to be Duchene. He had come in through the window which opened on a ve randa. He had been Working at the lock of my trunk-when-I made some noise on awakening, and be had rolled himself under. the bed. -"He had come for that bag of gold, and he had meant to do for me if necessary. - ; ; I alarmed the bouse, the police were sent for, and the fellow was taken away, but it was a good hour before he recovered his senses. His story. was entirely , false, and he had put up a Job to rob me. It was. my testimony that gave him five years in prison, but after, It was all over- and he had been sent away I. was a bit sorry for him. He could' tell a. good story, had a laugh which made you laugh with him,- and few; men of his class In. Paris or else where could order a better dinner. He was not a grasping man withal. He had planned to rob me of $2,000 where mother would have raised the figure to.$5,000.- v - The Gentle Art mt Letter Wrltlns. - The classic age of letter writing, like that of chivalry, is gone, although no Burke has been found yet to-utter its splendid . funeral oration. Correspond ence on business, hurried notes contain ing Invitations to dinner or acceptances thereof these are the missives which fill the bag of the letter carrier. The love 'letter, we presume, still holds its sway, and, if we are to judge from the revelationsof breach of promise 'cases, it Is full of sugary sentjmentallsm as in the days of Lydia xangulsb.. But the letter as It has passed hito litera ture, the letter whose highest claim to be treated as art Is that it conceals art, the letter, as written by William Cow- per, cc Oliver Goldsmith, or Horace Walpole," or Miss Burney that charm ing epistle, intended only for the affec tionate perusal of friends and yet of such value to the historian of life and manners shall we say that it has dis appeared from the busy modern world, killed by the "railway and the steam ship and the thoughts that shake man kind?' As least, it lsnow but a rare product, a fragile flower scarcely able to maintain Itself in our altered social soil. - Correspondence from being a cherish ed art and. solace has in our day tend ed to become what is called In slang a "grind."- It Is "snippety." like the cheap newspapers, - a sort of "bits" or "cuts," giving bints which require to be filled out, only that the receiver has hardly time for that mental process. Truth to ten. a great deal of our letter writing . is boredom, the source of Irrita tion and weariness, to those who are called on to undertake - it. London Spectator. - - ., Ftmarera Ferks. . In olden times fingers served well enough, to convey food to the mouth, and a divided gourd was an acceptable drinking vessel, but when fashionable aspirations seized our ancestors they scornei these Implements of nature, and even, the Pacific islanders pulled their .hair, of which they had a gener ous abundance, in their anxiety to de vise more seemly methods. They final ly, manufactured forks that looked like skewers, and out of the bamboo they manufactured knives. . The Indians, proverbially slow in adopting modem ways, still eat without knives or forks, although they have permitted the use of spoons. - These were first made of shells and the rinds of gourds. Later handles .were'; inserted, and, having passed numerous stages, knives, forks and spoons have reached the present elaborately ornamented kinds cow in general nsel- . -.- " The cup Is probably the most' ancient of all domestic utensils. Its earliest form was simply the half closed hand or the folded leaf. Then followed cups made of sea shells or rinds of fruit cut in halves. Later appeared cups of metal, lacquer and china- For.centu- 3es the cup has been made the expres on of art and luxury, and the most precious metals,-combined with the ar tisan's most consummate skill, are now commonly employed in their, manufac ture.

Adama la A! lee's, "Is that of one of the big eartern railroads, which is to some extcct modeled on the secret scrrloe system of some of the eastern governments, though by no means so complex. Sofarreachlng and so direct, tow ever, are Its lines of communication that the president of the organlxAtion is himself - kept constantly Informed of the trend of affairs and the changes of sentiment among the -employees cf every division and subdivision, cf the whole railway system, and that with out the knowledge of any other persons but his own special corps of clerks and secretaries. "Nobody but himself knows the en tire personnel of the wonderful service that he has perfected. His sgents are drawn from every branch of the road's operating staff. .They are engineers, freight brakemen, passenger trainmen, conductors, signalmen, yardmen, sta tion agents, track walkers and even division officials. Should that road hare a strike and strikes are far less likely to occur than they were before the present system was put into op erationthe president will have de tailed warnings of it from all the storm centers long before the first mut terings find cautious utterance in the newspapers. "While it also acts as a defense against thefts by employees, this sys tem Is Intended primarily to prepare, so to speak, a diary of the disposition, character, working efficiency and senti ments toward the road of the men who constitute the vast human machinery of the corporation.' The feeling which culminates in a general strike is not the result of one act alone, but a slow growth made up of many grievances, real or fancied. "To keep track of the shifting mental attitude of his employees is the aim of this railroad president. If a certain division superintendent has made him self unpopular with his subordinates, information to that effect comes 'by underground wire to the central office, and the matter is taken under advise ment. If the newest fireman en the road attempts to stir up discontent by lnflammajory talk, his views soon reach tfcs 91olal ear. Every lending spirit in the. employees' orgiuil ration is known to the president, who also knows whether, in case of trouble, the man Is to -be reckoned upon as a con servative or a radical. "Sometimes this works out the man's career In a manner quits incomprehen sible to him. For Instance, Kigbt "Watchman Brown is shifted without cacse that he can fathom from one di vision to another. How should he know that rumors of trouble la that di vision have reached the presidential ear and that he himself, being down In the presidents little book as a speaker of weight and a counselor of conserva tive methods, has been shifted over to act as unconscious agent in checking a dangerous tendency? . . "Some of the admiring coworkers of the head of this system declare that in two minuter reference to his collected funds of information be can enroll the family' history ot the woman who washes the windows of ear No. 4114-LX and tell whether. In her estimation, he himself Is an oppressor of the down trodden or a perfect gentleman. "Where so many invisible lines radi ate from the same office It is inevitable that some of them should cross. Curi ous complications result from contact between spotters as unknown to each other as they are to those whom they watch., . "Several years ago at a time of gen eral labor troubles a certain railroad got no less than five reports from its confidential men informing them that an employee who was several degrees higher in the secret service of the road than any of them, had they but known It, had been making incendiary speech- "This, was true. Matters had so shaped themselves that the man ac cused had to appear as a radical in or der to gain admittance to inner coun cils where the important questions would be finally decided. To the cha grin of the authorities they were oblig ed to transfer him. Had they not done so the suspicions of the -men who make the reports would have been aroused. That spotters should know each other as such is held to be highly undesira ble. There is always the chance that they might work in conjunction Instead of acting as checks on each other." - Ta Fllsat n Tina. .
