which under the system OF gas will not be

.. II will enable us to save 4i,0O0.OOO feet
of gas. or more than one third OF our entire
present output OF gas to private consumers,
thereby relieving the great strain on our
gas works, without requiring the extra eX.
pense OF new holders, &c.

than gas, as Is shown by the statement OF the
relative cost which has been submitted to

Erc1nsivenesa of the French.

After all, suppose it is little wonder that
outsiders should know so little of the French.
French life is so, so exclusive! The passing
visitor to our shores gets no opportunity to
Judge of his hosts real character. AS ma
ton we are not hospitable, am sorry to say.
A stranger win meet with pOliteness and at
tention as he travels through our country;
everybody viii help him, and if he appears
in Paris armed with letters Of introduction,
he will be made welcome at social reunions,
parties may be given in his honor, perhaps;
but, go where he may throughout the coun-
try, he will not have a chance of penetrating
into the inner family circle; the home life Of
the bulk Of the people will remain closed
letter for him. We never trouble to show
our best side 10 the foreigner. This is what
misleads completely so many outsiders

Eccentricities of q millionaire.

''There goes a man." said a passenger on a
Third avenue street car, day or two ago,
as he pointed to the occupant of handsome
carriage rolling rapidly along behind two
noble looking steeds, "whom a good many
people, if they knew his peculiarities, would
call a crank"
Show sog said one who had often noticed
the gentleman riding by with folded arms
and impressive face.
swell, he is special partner and principal
owner in one of the largest cigar factories in
the western part of the city, and resides in a
palatial residence about half a mile distant
Every night exactly at o'clock, rain or
snow, winter or summer, he visits this fac
tory with lantern and scours the huge
building from basement to top floor to see
that everything is properly placed.
in the most freezing cold Of winter and
the most suffocating heat of summer the
same journey and examination are accom-
plished. Should any workman be careless or
unfortunate enough to mislay his tools or
put anything combustible in proximity to
danger he is speedily reprimanded, and often
summarily discharged This odd task he has
performed nightly for nearly fifteen years.
"He pursues a similar course with regard
to his home. Generally he sits reading in
his library until midnight, and Immediately
before retiring he makes thorough inspec-
ton, of the house. Every nook and corner is
faithfully scrutinized, and woe unto the serv-
ants, to whom he is ordinarily very kind and
indulgent, if they have been remiss in their
duties.
"But his peculiarities do not cease here.
