The rench Detective.

During the empire, between the years
1850 and 1868, there lived in
Paris an Englishman, who moved in
good society, was "a member of more
than one tirSt-class club, and who until
after his death was not known to belong
to the secret police of Paris. Apparently
ne was a middle-aged gentleman with
good private means, living alone, and
dining every day at the Biguon's or the
Cafe Anglais. Yet this individual was
the means of bringing more scoundrels
of certain class to justice than per,
haps any other detective in the French
capital All the secret agents of the
Paris force have their special line OF
bu,iness-their special beat, so to speak
where they hunt up the particular game
they are told to look after This English.
man had in his day been great gamh-
Ter, and even long after he had given
up rough ct noir and baccarat, loved a
little ecarte with not very low points,
and could hardly exist without his rub
Der of whist every evening.
His speciality with the police was to
spot down men who cheated or were pro-
prietors Of gambling helS. On one ac-
casion, which must be- remembered by
many members Of the French Jockey
club, he was the means OF having ar
rested a person who had introduced in
to that club and who played certain
tricks with money and with checks
that threw discredit on all the members
until the affair was cleared up.
And yet this gentleman lived more
than IL dozen years in Paris without any
one suspecting his employment, and
even after his death the truth only
came out by accident. Ofmen employ
ed in the same manner as was this En-
glishman-each man haviug his own
beat in the huntnlg ground Of crime
there are at least three or four dozen in
Paris AS II matter of course, their
lives woule not be worth weeks pur-
chase if the dangerous classes could
identify them. Ii is only by keeping
their names and appearance strictly Sc
cret that they carry on their work,
which they certainly do in as efficient a
manner Us any body of public servants
in the world.
