s;everalyears ago the Place Pigalt

the raising generation of artists an
models congregated. The cafes an

usually of evenings crowded by person
of this class, who made the night
hideous with their shout and ribal,
songs as they passed to their lodgings
having become heated and half craze,
with wine.
So it was about the middle of Januar,
1877, that q young man made his ap
pearance about these haunts who rep
resented himself to be an artist from
Rome, where he had just completed :
course of instruction from a noted pro
fessor at that place. He gave his name
as LOUIS Chaplin.
AS usual, the old habitues of the yari

with more or less suspicion, and Mon.
sieur Louis did not escape their scrutiny
Being, as he said, wrapped up in his
art and not given to indulging to excess
in wine and carousing, his populariy
did not increase. He had taken lodg.
ings in the attic of the hotel of one
Monsieur Grouse. that had not been
used for some time.
Thugs progressed fairly with NJ.
Louis at his new quarters. He had
chosen the attic, he said, because he
would be freer from noise and interrup.

Next door to M. Grouse's hotel there
lived an old dame named Madam Blous,
who was reported tc have amassed
quite a large fortune by depriving her.
self of not only the Injuries of life but
almost ofthe necessities. In this almost
empty house there lived but the old
woman herself and one lodger, who
occupied the top floor. He was queer
specimen and lived no one knew how.
Mother Blous did not care so long as
her rent was paid promptly.
This was the exact condition of affairs
when on the morning of February 4th
the neighborhood Of the Place Pgale
was startled by the cnes of s man, hat.

crying:
"She is dead! She has been murdered.

The person who made this outcry was
none other than the lodger Of Madam

PROF. Barnard, should he take
charge OF the Democrat, which we learn
is now decided, will find himself ''ter'
mist" snag to begin with. We would
not question the professors democracy
for an instant ourselves, but there is a
large element of that party who siren
uously hold that prohibitionist and a
real genuine democrat can't exist in the
same suit of underwear. We can't see
any organic difficulty further than it is
a little inconvenlent, but there are lots
of democrats who think such con-
stitutional impeachment docs exist. Now
there is no doubt that the Philosopher
preached sound democracy, wnen he
opposed ''sumptuarv' laws,-laws to
regulate or interfere with eating and
irinking-for he was backed not only
10y the traditions of the party. but
also the utteranceS of Missouri's repre-
sentative democrat in the person of
Senator Vest. So you see, Professor, to
use current phrase. you must fight

WHAT a ridiculous idea ii is, and
yet the American people practice it,
that simple citizen isn't just as inn
portant in political matters as one who
may have been lucky enough to hold
some little office for a term or two.
And another funny idea is that just by
the simple act of aspiring two or three
times for something "soft'' the aspirant
acquires kind of indefinite "claim''
by-and-by, so that when death, or some
other accident knocks out one Of the
old pegs he steps in by right. Officers
have been termed servants" OF the
people, but we presume the title is
only used in the Pickwickian sense, for
in this case the servant generally ex-
poets to dictate to the master, which is
another funny phase ofthat queer COM
edy called politics.

number says that insanity has lis

one OF comparative calm-often into
one of decided happiness; and attempts
to restore such a person 10 sanity
would be cruel rather than kind.
Moreover, he insists that without
certain amount of insanity, success in
life, in the ordinary acceptance Of the
term, is quite impossible. All "emi-
nent men" he contends, are more or
less mad. Many OF them are danger

desirable on public grounds to shut up,
but who, nevertheless, achieve grand
careers, and are credited with doing

A Vienna chemist has recently dis
covered new variety of glass. 1t
does not contain any SILICA, boric acid,
potash, soda, lime, or lead, and is like
ly to attract the attention of all pro-
fessionai persons on account of lis pc
culiar composition. Externally it is
exactly similar to glass, hut its lnster
is higher aud it has a greater refiao-
ton, of equal hardness, perfectly
white, clear. transparent. can be
ground and polished, completely in
soluble in water. neutral. and il is on
ly attacked by hydrochloric acid, and
is not affected by hydrotluoric acid.
1t is easily fusible in the flame of a
candle, and can be made of any color,
Its most important property Is that it
can be readily fused on TO zinc. brass,
and iron. 1t can also be used for the
glazin. of articles of glass and porce-
lain. As hydrotiuoric acid has no eff
feet on this new glass it is likely to
fiud employment for many technical
purposes
