Prince of detectives.

Vidocq, the great French detective,
was born in Arras in 1775. He began
life as baker and early became the ter
ror of his companions by his athletic
frame and violent disposition. At the
same time he was notorious thief, and
after many disgraceful adventures he en-
listed in the army. In 1896 he returned
to Paris with some money, which, how.
ever, he soon squandered. Next he was
sentenced at Lille to eight years hard
labor for forgery, butrepeatedly escaped,
and in 1903 he became connected with
The Paris police as a detective.
His previous career enabled him to
render important services, and he was
appointed chief of the safety brigade.

which purged Paris of the many danger
Gus classes. In 1918 he received full
pardon, and his connection with this
service las5ed until about 1928, when he
settled at st. Mande as a paper manu-
facturer. Soon after the revolution of
1880 he became political detective. but
with little success. In 1S4S he was again
employed under the republican govern

A Soured Englishman.

An Englishman who spent six

a bitter review of Chicago in the New

statements may be inferred from this
paragraph: "Chicagoans take pride
IN declaring themselves 'hustlers' A
Chicagoan will waste an hour telling

Makers of rat traps think they have
done good thing when they kill a
rat. Generally they do not know
what there is beyond. In Paris the
rat trap does not kill the rat; they

but to utilize him. The rat is set to

The method of the emperor of Aus

ball at lschl to celebrate his birth
day, and among the guests was the
Duchess Louise of Bavaria. with her
two eldest daughters, Helen and Eliza
beth, who were all of course, invited.
The duchess was, however, disin-
clined to bring Princess Eliza beth, on
the plea that she was not yet out, and
had not dress in which to appear.
But the emperor would take no ex-
cuse, and said, in his simple, good ma
tured way, that the simplest of dresses
and a rose in her hair would suffice to
make his pretty cousin queen of the
feast.
Then the mother gave way, and the
pretty cousin became not only queen
of the feast, but queen of Francis
Joseph's heart and empress of Austria.
