Glimpse of DIR. GuIllOtin and His Head
Looping Machine.
Guillotin himself, as we'll as his ma
chine, was a good deal pictured on a
cheap delft. A miniature of him has
come down with other flotsam and jet
sam of the revolution. 1t gives US the
idea OF a correct, judicious practitioner
with the half-closed eye of one who is
mentally thinking out some problem.
He was always improving his surgical
instruments in order to abridge pain by
rapidity in operation, and thought to
minimize it at capital executions. The
principal of equality was to be demon
strated by the guillotine, since kisg,
mobiles and sans culottes were to lose
their heads by DR.. Guillotin's process.
His small model of his head-lopping ma
chine is near his miniature, and lis
quite equal to cutting off a mans fin

oblige visitors. Sampson, the public
executioner, we find, took snuff. His
snuff box, of plain brass, is on view
also. Further on are gruesome relics,
such, for instance, as handkerchief
stepped in Marie Antoinette's blood.
Instruments of torture, which fell into
disuse forever at the revolution, are
grouped around the guillotine, which,
perhaps was used as much as it was by
the revolutionists because it was a nov
city. 1t killed in the twinkling of an
eye. Finishing off the King and Queen
gave it prestige and made it the rage as
a gratis spectacle. An old evil is most

ABUSE OF TOBACCO.
A Reform Society Begs for Legal Recog-
milton in France.

The Society Against the Abuse of To-
title-is just now distinguishing itself
by an unusual display of energy. 1t is
about to present a petition to the Cham
Der of Deputies asking that a law shall
be passed forbidding boys-and it is to
be presumed girls as well-under six
teen years of age to smoke. 1t has also
senta deputation to the Minister of War
begging him not to permit soldiers to
indulge in the fragrant weed in their
own rooms. Not content with this, the
society has also requested M. dc Frey
cinet to instruct the commanders of
regiments to see that tobacco rations be
not distributed to non-smokers as well
as to lovers of the pipe, the cigar or the
cirarette-as is said to be the case in
certain corps-in order that temptation
may be not thrown in the way of men
who have not already taken kindly to
the luxury.
1t might have been assumed that if
young people under the age of sixteen
were not able to look after themselves,
their seniors, who donned their red
breeches, the kept or the helmet,
might at least be supposed to have ar
rived at the years of discretion. The
society, however, entertains different
opinion. Like most enthusiasts, the
anti-tobacconists have over Shot the
mark, vet, as matter of fact, there is
no doubt the weed is becoming daily
more popular with Juveniles, who, al
though they can hardly BIO described as
babes and sucklings, have barely en-
tered into the stage of boyhood and girl
hood. Children of tender years are fire.

An Itinerant Hangman Who Couldn't Get
Job.
1t was before the days of the guillotine
in France, when they used togallows folks
as they do nowadays in America.
Not having a regular executioner in
the outlying parts, whenever there was
need of such functionary he was hired
at fixed price, with the additional re-
ward of the victims clothes.
On one occasion a tramp, going
through court town, was engaged for
this purpose. He swung his subject off
and received the equivalent of five dol
lars and the usual perquisites.
Passing the same place some six
months after he caused the church bell
20 be rung, the common method of as
iembling the people.
When they were gathered ne mounted
the steps and said:
Some time ago l hanged a man for
you at five dollars the job and his clothes.
Now, If there are any of yoa who need
hanging l will be glad to do it for half
the figure and drop all claim to the gar
ments. An opportunity 10 be disposed
of so cheap won't happen again, SO you
had better take advantage of the oppor-
tunity."
But low as were his rates, he couldn't

The Herald's Washington special
says that on the night before the UNI
yelling of the Lee statue, a score OF
more of ex-confederate officers were
sitting in the Westmoreland Club at
Richmond. One of them, now IL resi-.
dent Of New York City, spoke of the
resolution offered by Mr.. Flower, ask.
ing congress to give S25O,OO0 toward
building the monument that NewYork
City promised to erect to Gen. Grant,
The speaker did not approve of the
resolution, but said if New York has
not raised the money for the monu
ment before September, he intended to
start a subscription of southern mcn
and head it with $4,000 for the pur.
pose of erecting the monument. There
was a momentary silence, when a lead
ing eS-otiiccr rose and said: III agree to
add $4,000 to your subscription Then
in quick succession, others rose and
pledged various sums until within a
few minutes 100000 had been thus
raised.
