A WEALTHY ooNv1cT's ESCAPE
How he Contrived to Get Away from
Prison Colony.
From the Neto York sun.

From the NeIo York sun
Mr.. F. Ordinaire recently returned from
long sojourn to New Caledonia, the big
island in the Pacific to which several
thousand French criminals have been Trans
ported for their couutry's good. 1t is mis-
take, however, to suppose that many of
these convicts spend their lives drudging
away behind prison walls. If they behave
themselves and do not try to escape they
are in time permitted to enjoy good deal
of liberty, live in cottages Of their
own OUTSIDE the prisons, marry female
convicts, and acquire more or less property,
While in New Caledonia Mr.. Ordinaire met
a beautiful young French woman and her
husband. They lived in good style, enter
tanned him handsomely, and, as they were
not convicts, their guest was curious to
know how it happened that they were liv-
ing in such an out of the way part of the
world. They satisfied his curiosity, and
later he heard the story they told him from
the French authorities on the island.
About twenty years ago wealthy
Frenchman named Lamy was condemned
to life imprisonment in New Caledonia. 1t
had been discovered that he had success
lively poisoned two legitimate wives, and
the public sentiment was that he was very
lucky to save mis- head. His sentence was
that he should be kept at hard labor. 1t
happened, however, that in his new home,
being far away from the Freuch court that
tried him, he was not confined very long in
the prison gang, and gradually gained
many privileges. Mr.. Ordinaire hints
that Lamy's money was influential in
making convict life easy and comfortable
for him.
At the end of ten years the wife poisoner
was as free as any one could be who was not
permitted to go anywhere he pleased. He
wandered at will among the settlements of
New Caledonia, bought property ia Nouma,
ranch on which, before long, he had 1000
head of cattle. He had other business irons
in the fire, and eajoyed ali the privileges Of
a free coIonist, except that he could not quit
the island, where he had been condemned TO
perpetual exile.
The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1890-09-07

But, or course, the thing he most desired
was the complete freedom that was denied
him. In spite of IRIS fortune and the COM
parative comfort he enjoyed, Lsmy made
up his mind to 60 back TO Europe if he could
get there.
One day he went to Noumea, wearing q
very luguorious face, and told the governor
OF the penitentiary administration that the
climate was simply killing him; IL he did
not have change of air he would die. He
begged for permission to spend SIX months
in Sydney on account of his shattered
health.
1t is limited that sympathy did not move
the penitentiary authorities half so much as
the gold which is capable Of working mir
acles. A privilege that had never been
extended to prisoner on the island before
was accorded to Lamy. He obtained per-
mission to seek a change Of air, and openly
embarked for Australia on a French
steamer buying the best accommodations
the vessel provided.
Lamy was now really a fugitive, for he
had not the slightest intention of returning
again to New Caledonia. 1t did not take
him long to discover that the Sydney air
was not sufficiently curative, and he ac-
cordlngly took passage upon one of the San
Francisco steamers, crossed North America,
and embarked from New York for Europe.
A few months after Lamy should have
reappeared in New Caledonia, his son and
daughter-in-law, the young people who so
handsomely entertained Mr.. Ordinaire, ap-
peared on the scene. They were equipped
with full powers to dispose of his property
on the island, and they settled in one of
their fathers houses and proceeded leisurely
to realize upon the lands, houses, forests
and herds Of their parent. At last accounts
he was still reposing from his adventures in
country bordering upon France.

The loveliest woman l have seen in
Washington, next to Matte Mitchell, the
queen of beauty, is Rose Alexander, a de-

Davis, herself once a milliner, who has
about her in the social season bevy of the
prettiest girls to be found in the capital
Many of them are from the departments,
and Just as nice and sweet and we'll be-
haved as if they were the daughters of
millionaires. Go out to the country club
house or the new Glen Echo cafe, or along
the delightful drives which surround Wash
ington, aud you will see the department
girl at her best. She is out, singly. by
couples and quartets, with senators, mem
bers of congress and promising and i'm
portant men in general as escort. The de-
partment girl is always good company, viva
cious, not too prudish, and wit native or
acquired by contact with the world. And
she is nearly always lady. No wonder she
catches good husband.
