THE MAN OF THE IRON MASK.

BY CARL sMYTHE.

ST. LOUIS, january 26, 1883.
OF all the victims of the old regimes, the
man with the iron mask was the most inter
esting, as he was tho most myterious. The
date. the place of his birth, is a mystery
his education and early training no less 80.
A young historian, d. Maurice Topin, who
had been diving into old papers among the
public archives of the French government.
about ten or twelve years past, was said By
contemporary paper papers to have at last
found out the true na.ue OF this man of the

more erudite and studious than himself
if he has in reality solvedthis great historical
conundrum and bagubrious enigma. Much
anterior TO NJ. Topins researches in the old
records, perhaps in the beginning Of the
pres mt century, a monk had died in a
French monastery leaving papers testifying
that he was 'fhe man Of the iron mask, but
his eccentric ways and life left no weight 10
his assertions.
The unfortunate prisoner to whom 10
body spoke or approached, wore no. indeed
an iron mask but q mask of velvet. He
had been incarcerated II long time in the
Chateau of Pignerol which served as a
prison Of state since the French had taken
possession of it in 1852. The inhabitants
still in 1918 showed an old dismantled tow
