MuteS Paint Paris Red

Paris Dispatch to London Telegraph.
Partisan crOque-mOrteS, or funeral
mutes," have, as is we'll known, an an
nual junketing on the Jour DIES Morris,
in mysterious restaurant at Mont
rouge. Nobody grumbles at this. and
the dOleful administration of the Pom
peS-FundOreS is no doubt better served
by allowing its men to amuSe them
selves after their own fashion on a day
when other citizens are rather lugubri-
Gus and inclined to mourning; nor is
objection raised to occasional tipping
on the part of the croque-mOrtS, for
their calling is not conducive to gay
spirits, and the habitual gloom which
they are obliged to .impart to their
countenanceS sometimes no doubt
their hearts. When croques-morts,
however, casting to the winds all sense
of decOrum and dignity, appear in the
broad daylight in a state of Intoxicated
helplessness, it is surely time for the
public and the POmpes-Funebres to pro-
test. The scene took place at Abort
vile, just outside the Notifications of
Paris. Four members of the mOurnful
procession were eagerly awaited in a
house in that suburb yesterday. At 3
o'clock, the hour fixed for the funeral,
the muteS were still absent. Later on
they were seen coming down the road in
zigzag fashion. When they carried
their mOurnful burden from the hearse
to the grave they were hiccOughing
maudlin sentiments and talking horribly
realistic ''shop," while everybody was
scandalized and aggrieved. At last they
set to work to fill up the grave, but their
proceedings were so perfunctory that
the persons who were attending the
funeral had to interfere, and it was only
by threats that they were made TO dis
charge their duties in a proper manner.

which is seen in light and delicate tints,
reflects. not the satiny sheen of pearls,

decoration, rather more expensive than
the best of the wall paper, is the So
called metallic relief work, which was
first employed in this country in refin-
