One of the most curious and deplor-
able sights in connection with pauper.
ism during the winter in Paris is the
influx of peripatetic beggars who in
wade at night the Iisused quarries OF
Argenteuil and Montlnartre, where
they huddle together, as close as they
safely can, to the limekilns, in order
to obtain little warmth. Along the
suburban roads in the direction OF
Paris they can be seen in twos and
threes bent double almost and hungry,
hurrying on and footsore, in the hope
of being i'll time to obtain a nights
shelter in the isles de nuit-night
refugees of the capital. But in those
buildings, according to the Philadel-
phia Ledger, there is not sufficient
room to accommodate all applicants.
Their hospitable doors are open only
for short time late at night, and when
once they are closed all entreaties for
admission are vigorously unheeded.
In the disused quarries they can find
plenty of room. A whole army of
mendicants could easily obtain shelter
in their long galleries-a warm corner
to huddle up in and convenient stone
for pillow. Moreover, there are no
awkward questions asked as at the
aisles de mutt, such AS 'Who art thou?
From whence cometh thou? What is
thy calling?" And SO from all direc-
tions leading toward Paris they come
in large numbers at night, mud-be-
shattered, hollow-cheeked, worn out
with fatigue, and numbered by hun
dreds as they descend into the quar-
ries, where, pressed pell NELL one
against the other, they endeavor by
contact to keep out the cold. The
largest number and deepest of these
disused quarries are in the neighbor-
hood of Argenteuil, and there it is that
the police often make their raids when
in search of some criminal who has
escaped capture, and who, it is
thought, may be hiding among the
''malfrats,"

A new enterprise Of some account /

A new enterprise Of some account is
looming up, notes the Argonaut. 1t
is the farming out of railroad damage
suits. Three years ago the officers OF
one of the trunk lines asked firm Of
lawyers what sum they would take to
defend the road in all suits arising
from death, accident, and destruction
of property, and pay the damage in
case of loss. The lawyers named q
figure, and have since relieved the
officers Of all anxiety and, virtually, OF
responsibility. Their undertaking,
like insurance. is somewhat speculative,
but they have killed 80 many suits IN
the courts and have compromised on
such advantageous terms in other cases
that they have made a large profit.
Other roads have followed suit within
a wear or so, and now several firms OF
LAWYERS are devoting themselves to
this work. A road that hardly includes
three hundred miles of track is under
stood to pay sixty-five thousand dollars
a year as an insurance against damage
suits.

bloodthir sty, fanatical and treacher-
GUS; their good qualities are of the
elementary, domestic kind, and their
highest virtue is courage, which they
possess in conspicuous degree. They
are uncivilized in the sense that they
are without any National cohesion or
responsibility. Each man is independ-
ent of his fellows and rejects the
authority of even tribal chiefs. No
doubt there are in every clan or tribe
men of prominence for their wealth
or prowess or cunning, who command
a certain following. But their infu-
ence is personal and temporary, and
vanishes as quickly as it has sprung up.

Professor Koenig, the Chief OF the
Michigan Mining School, says that the
United States have deposit of marble
which is finer than the best product of
Carara or Paros. This marvellous de-
posit underlies the stone quarries at
Avondale, Penn, from which some
specimens were taken recently with
diamond pointed drill and submitted
to him for examination. He studied
them carefully and submitted them to
the most rigorous tests for fneness
and durability, and reports that he
has never seen better marble and
doubts if there is any better in the
world.
