The Halles Centl,alles are the largest of the
markets of Paris, though they are not the
only ones. They are the largest markets in
the world. They consist of ten great pavil-
ions of iron and glass, and they cover %
acres of ground. Each pavilion contains
250 stalls, each of which is as large as a small
hall bedroom, and the cellars below, for
storage, number / 200, each of which is 10
feet high. These markets cost about s10,0 00,-
0o0to build, or nearly as much as our national
Capitol. The city, however, gets a good in
teaest from the investment by her tax on
the enormous business done. Each of the
stalls pays a rent, and the government taxes
everything that comes into the city. The
ually bill or Paris for meat, wine and bread
alone amounts to about S750,00O, and there
are 100000 worth of eggs sold here yearly.
The Gsil sales amount to S5,000,0O0 a year,
and those of butter and poultry are equally
rs much. In 1882 there were sold at these
markets 5000, coo pounds of meat, $4,000, 600
pounds of fish, 27,000,000 pounds of butter,
343,090, 900 eggs, 95, 100000 pounds of cheese,
4S.o0o,000 pounds of poultry and 1872, 00o, 900
oysters. In other words, estimating our
population at 60,000,o0o, Paris in 1882 ate
enough to have given each man, woman
and child in the United States more than
pound of fish, / pound Of meat, 5 eggs, 8
oysters, nearly pounds of cheese, II pound
OF butter and l pound of poultry and game.
But tho United States is a great country
Paris is only a city, and the Halles Centralles
are only one of its marketing places. Paris
drinks 100000, 900 gallors of wine yearly, and
the average annual consumption of wine per
mead is about 1876 quarts, or over a pint a day
for each man, woman and child in the city.

PARIS, Sept. 20.-Paris stands at the top Of
the gastronoinic world. Her cooks are ex-
ported to every quarter of the globe, and the
chefs of other nations come here to study the
culinary art. The noted negro caterer,
Wormley, Of Washington, who made $780,
900 by pleasing the palates of the statesmen
and diplomats there, sent his sons to Paris to
study French cookery, and the day has come
when the American millionaire would sooner
think of doing without his carriage than his
chef from Paris. Sam Ward, the late noted
lobbyist, passed manya bill through the dishes
which he learned now to prepare in Paris,
and Presidents Jackson, Jefferson and Arthur
Ind their dinners gotten up by cooks from
France.
Paris is a city Of hotels and cafes, and it
has been described as d gigantic mousetrap
with three doors, labeled respectively "IIotel,
Cafe, Restaurant There are ~ the city be-
tween 5000 and 5000 hotels, and the restau-
rants stare at you from every block. AT al
most any restaurant you are sure of getting
good cooking, and the chef of the restaurant
is one OF the characters OF Paris. What his
wages are here I don't know, but President
Arthur paid Chef Forth 81, 800 a year, and a
good French cook can hardly be gotten In
America under 81, 900. Here their wages
are undoubtedly less, but still they form an
important element of the French community,

establishments at London, pretty girls acted

in Paris, middle-aged women, who look like
Sisters of Charity are employed, and the rates
of food are about one-half of those of London.
Yon get a glass Of ordinary wine for four
cents, a soup for five cents, meat or fish for
from six to twenty cents, and vegetables
about five cents; an ordinary dinner cost you
about fifty cents, and the food is excellent.
This man Duyal is the prince of butchers.

Against the statements made in the
Sioux City Tribune of late date that
Zone of the chief effects of prohibition
has been to increase taxation and to
lower the value of real estate;" that
under the workings of prohibition the
sale of liquor has increased in Iowa.
that "wherever prohibition has been in
force property values have declined
and immigration has fallen off" it is
easy to cite trustworthy authorities that
contradict every one of these assertions.
The tax rate in Atlanta. Ga. after two
months of prohibition was, decreased
from forty to thirty cents on the dollar.
A letter from M. M, WEIGH, secretary
Of the chamber of commerce, says that
every line of retail trade IN the city
shows an increase over any preceding
year, of from ten to twenty-five per cent,
and IN some lines in axcess of that
amount. To Pierce county, Ga, q trial of
prohibition for six years resulted in an
increase of over go per cent in property
valuation, and at the same time the
county tax was reduced from ifty-two
and one-half on the hundred to
thirty-ive cents. The county was freed
from all debt and had several hundred
dollars in the treasury. The merchants,
citizens and board of commissioners OF
Hartwell, Hart county, testify to the
progress and improvement of the place
in every way since prohibition went into
effect; in La Grange hundreds oil
thousands of dollars have been perma-
nently invested, and the entire com
munity unite in the testimony that az
incalcnlable amount of good, morally
and financially has been done since the
adoption of prohibition.
Ii vt is true that under prohibition in
Iowa the sale of liquor has increased
how is it that the extensive breweries and
drink factories have been forced to close
up? But high license would be nc
improvement, for 1t is stated that while
the population of Nebraska in five years
increased sixty-three per cent, the drink
traffic during the same period under
high licanse increased l4S per cent,
Space forbids the enumeration of the
countless similar facts bearing upon
these points.
