3 Nothing of 9 consequence happened
during the evening. koblard was tired
with BIS journey from Geneva, and after
the. pair had discussed q cup of coffee
and q cigar in the smoking roomshe sug-
gested bed. Both men repsireds to their
sleeping chambers, and Roblard began by
requesting that TfouillUt would leave
the door OF communication between the
two apartments OPEN, Troullot con-
scented, but he was rather sdisuayed
when he saw the communist prepare for
his nights rest by laying on his night
table six-chambered revolver and q
large clasp-knife. He vowed to himself
that he would sleep as gendarmes are
said do do-with one eye open; but this
resolution was soon obliterated by
drowsiness, the effects of the good dinner
he had eaten. Ten minutes after getting
between sheets Trouillot was sound
asleep, and snoring like q trombone.
He awoke in the middle of the night,
and recollected where he WASH but q
peculiar odOt vas filing his nostri1s. He
est Dip andarubbed his eyes Thesfroem
was pitch dark. He struck match and
the first thing he saw after lighting his
candle was a handkerchief dying on his
pillow which had evidently been steep
ed in chloroform. The pungent smell Of
that poison still fingered about it.
This discovery at once drew Trouillot
out of bed; and he strobe trouserless
into the next room, holding his candle
at arms length. At first he could see
nothing unusual; but suddenly his eyes
met sight which made him stand stock
still in the middle of the apartment
Deep in the alcove, and half hidden by
its curtains, hung the lifeless body Of
Roblard, who was suspended by the neck
to the curtsin rod by means of the bell
rope. He was quite dead; and the sur
prising part of the matter was that the
door of his room opening on to the
passage stood ajat: =.
A few hours later, when summary
inquest had been held by the Procureul
de Ia Republique, that functionary said
ut is obviously the suicide Of a cunning
mailman"
Il suppose So" concurred Monsieu,
A., who had been called in. "Yet
those conspirators are queer fellows;
they cannot even die plainly like Other
men,"
The same evening, Vuilleux, the jour
nalist, reading the Partisan kilograms in
a Geneva newspaper, remarked to 8
circle of affrighted communists: "Didn't
I tell you Richards days were number

An Ancient Mosque.

A correspondent of the N. Y Herald,
with ex-President Grant in India, writes
as follows of the mosque called Jam
Mussid:
After the capture of Delhi, in 1857;
the troops plundered it, going so far as
to strip the gliding from the minarets.
This mosque even now is one of the
noblest buildings in India. 1t stands in
the centre of the city, built upon rock.
In the ancient time there were four
streets that converged upon the mosque,
leading into various parts of the town.
But as the mosque was used during the
mutiny as fort all the space in front of
it has been cleared for military purposes,
and the space between the mosque and
the palace, that was formerly densely
peopled, is now an open plain, where
troops may manouvre and cannon may
fire. Nothing is more important, in the
civilization Of India by the English,
than that the cannon should have range.
In the days of the Moguls the cmperors
came to the mosque to pray. It is now
a religious edi6ce, having been restored
to the Moslems recently, after twenty
years retention by the British, sort OF
punishment to the Moslems for their
course during the mutiny. The ascent
is up noble sweeping range of steps.
These steps were crowded with people,
who came out in the afternoon to enjoy
the air, chatter, buy and sell and fight
chickens. On Friday afternoon, when
there is service, and on fete
days, the steps become quite fair. As
the general and party walked along beg
CARS and dealers in chickens and falcons
swarmed around them, anxious for aims
or to trade. One of the treasures in the
mosque was hair of Mohammed's beard.
The hottest of Moslem relics is under q
keeper, who has a pension for his service.
He was quiet, venerable soul, who
brought us the relic in q glass case. The
hair was long, and had reddish auburn
tinge which time has not touched. An.
other relic was q print of Mohammed's
foot in marble. The footprint was deer
and clear, and shows that when the
prophet put his foot down it was with 8
force which even the rocks could not re.
sist. We strolled about the mosque
which is large and capacious, as should
become the temple of an emperor. A
few devout souls were at prayer, but
somehow the building had q neglected
look. The mosque itself is POI feet Ions
and 120 feet broad, and the minarats Isl
feet high. It was here that the Mogu
emPerors worshipped, and here was reat
the litany of the house of Timur. Thu
last of these performances was during
the mutiny in 1857, when the old king
came in state, as his ancestors did, ant
reproduced the sacred story of the sacri
fee of Abraham in the sacrifice of .
camel by his own royal hands.
