An Odd Trade in Paris.
Paris Letter to London Telegraph

The macchabee men, or fishers of dead
bodies, who ply their doleful trade on the
Seine, between the Auteuil ivaduct and
the BillancOurt bridge, threaten to go on
strike owing to the slowness with which
their money premiums are paid. Pere
Joseph, the senior member of the profess
sion of ecumers, or scavengers of the
Seine, has been fishing for macchabees
during the past twenty-five years, but he
is now idle with his companions, as he
has not been paid for the last batch Of
corpses sent to the morgue. Joseph, by
the way, sent forty-two macchabees to
the city dead house last year, and was
paid Is francs each for them, his total
gains for the twelve months being little
over e25. This year the trade again
seemed to be improving; the morgue was
literally overlooking with bodies taken
out of the river of late, and in one day
Pere Joseph made go francs That money,
however, has not yet been received,
although IL has been due for fortnight
and hence he has laid down his ropes and
graphing irons until the city officials,
whose duty it is TO remunerate him and
his companions for their services, shall
see their way to organizing more eXpedi-
tion in their pay department.

New York, May 9.-This was jack

cruisers were decked with bunting and
the strains of inspiring music waited

usual on board. The American sailors
had prepared an excellent lunch, and to
this the visitors did ample justice.

ships in port there was big rush of visi-
tors on the vessel. The Blake was

should success eventually crown the
efforts of the rain makers it would be
of very doubtful value, insomuch as
the general production of rain would
not meet with the appreciation of
everybody, except in time of general
and continued drouth. While the
cotton farmer longed for and perhaps
even prayed for rain, his neighbor
over the fence who had lust
cut his hay or oats, longed and prayed
as tervently for spell of dry weather,
so that rain caused by other than a
natural agency would find an obiec-
ton in the hay farmer and the agent
possibly be landed in q suit for dam
ages. 1t seems to me that something
might be done to supply the thirsty
ones with water without ANNOYANCE to
those desiring dry weather. In many
drouth-stricken districts streams,
pon.'s and wells Astounding with wa
ter are found below the level of Guilt
waited crops, and consequently not
OF any service to them. Would it not
be possible for some engineer to devise
some pumping system, movable from
farm to farm, whereby the now wasted
water could be transferred to and dis
tributed over the thirsty upiands.
This seems at least as practicable as
making rain by bombarding the
heavens,

A SAVAGE ASSAULT.
Special Officer John Plat Severely Injured
by q Would Be Assassin.


About ] o'clock this morning as
Special Officer John Platt was walk
ing along West Fourth street, in
front of the old Daggett mansion, he
was assaulted by Mexican, who
struck him heavy blow on
the head with a rock or some
similar weapon, knocking him
off the pavement into the street. AS
soon as the Mexican dealt the blow he
took 10 his heels, going west, and by
the time Mr.. Platt got on his feet the
Mexican was turning the corner,
closely followed by two pistol balls
fired in rapid succession by MIR. Plat.
Special Officer Tom Blum and Dory
Allen gave chase and were put on the
trail by Mr.. Sendry, the hack driver,
who saw the Mexican enter the alley.
About midway of the alley the pur-
suers came upon Juan Ortega, a
resident of Guytown, who an
swered the description given by
several witnesses to the assault,
and although Ortega told several
conflicting tales, he was taken to the
station and locked up.
In the mean time Officer PIatt had
Eeen taken to DeLaney's saloon and
DR.. Graves attended to his wound,
which is believed to be quite serious
as up to the time THE STATESMAN
went to press he had not regained
consciousness.
What the Mexican's motive was in
assaulting Mr.. Platt is not known.
Some of the denizens of the jungles
thought it was personal grievance,
while there was some talk of plot to
put some of the police officers out Of
the way.
1t would seem that it Is about time
to call halt ON the coDdrct of the
abandoned men and women in that
part of the city and teach them to re-
spect the law or force them to vamos.
