at the appearance of strange-appearlng

fomerly known as the Isle of Louviers. 1t

of the Seine to contain tho municipal and

when the archives we're entirely destroyed
by the villainous Communists has shown
the necessity of erecting this edifice With
extraordinary precautions. There are no
windows on the street side, and every device
that promises security in case of fire has
been sedulously resorted to. The burnt
archives were mine of wealth to the his
torian, containing as they did an immense
amount of information Of every kind, politl-
cal and municipal, in. reference to the capl'
tol of France. Some few of these records
had, fortunately been printed, but the most
serious loss of all was that Of the parish reg
