KILLED HlMsELf FOR a LIVING.


a Parislan Swindler Who Took Newell
Means q Raising the Wind.
Gillet, professional mendicant of
Paris, has the peculiar merit of being
the organizer of trick for raising
funds which was unknown and un-
dreamed of in the philosophy Of the
ablest representatives of the old Cour
des Miracles, says writer in the
London Telegraph. he pretended to
hang himself from tree seven times
during the summer, and on each occa-
sion he was cut down from his gibbet
by Good Samaritans, who invariably
sent round the hat for him on the spot.
In some instances the rescuers may
have been Gillet's confederates, but ac-
cording to what can be gathered he
usually preferred to work alone. Hav-
ing selected fine day for his opera
tions, Gillet dressed himself carefully
and went to the woods of Boulogne or
Vincennes. He next made choice of .
tree near where young children were
playing, and having put moose round
his neck strung himself up. Then he
groaned and attracted the children.
who ran in alarm to their mothers OF
nurses, until in a moment there was q
crowd around him. Men summoned to
the spot, and sometimes the women
who were called, extricated the artful
mendicant from his apparently peril
Gus position. He was extended on the
grass, his hands were rubbed, cordiais
were pressed to his lips and smell.
ing bottles put under his nose.
When he revived the first question put
to him was naturally: Why did he
do it? Pointing to pocket of his coat
he would say: sHere is letter which
will explain all!'' The document be.
ing opened contained a communication
to the effect that Gillet wanted tc
hang himself of his own free will. His
desire to die was caused by destitution,
and he had not eaten for two days. A
collection being made for the sufferer
he instantly regained the use of his
limbs, and before leaving his generous
sympathizers treated them to brief
photographed sketch, which set
forth that he was respectable young
man from the country who had been
stranded in Paris and could find no
work to do. 1t is recorded that Gillet
performed this trick with great sue
cess between July and September, not
only in the woods about Paris, but
also in the park at Versailles and in
the forest of st. Germain. In the last
mentioned place he had the good for
tune to be cut down just as a generous
Paris banker was passing by, who gave
him liberal donation. Gillet natur
ally took care to tie his moose in a man.
ner calculated to produce the effect
which he intended without imperiling
his life. In the winter, when the
woods are comparatively deserted, Gil
let adopted the old trick of pretending
to faint or to have an epileptic fit at
the corner of the street. His fraud
has at last been detected and charita-
BILE people have been warned against
his knavery. which has not only de-
ceived ordinary men and women but
also astute members of the police force.

A Snake That Squirts Poison.

M. Hoehnel, on his travels to Lakes
Rodolphe and Stephanie, found a SER
pent between two and three feet long
coiled in one of his small boxes. After
the rainy season, and when his servant
tried to kill it, the animal launched a
jet of liquid in his eyes, which made
him scream with pain. Hoehnel was
more cautious, and advanced in such a
way that the draught carried away the
liquid, but few blackish drops fell on
his neck without effect. An Arab guide.
however, received the shot in his eyes,
and recoiled with pain. Eventually the
snake was beaten to death as it tried to
escape. A lotion Of diluted sal ammo
MAC was applied to the injured eyes
and cured them in twenty-four hours =

From time to time references are
seen in the daily papers, referring to
the difficulty experienced by the ferry
companies, car lines, ETC., in disposing
of enormous accumulations of ordinary
copper cents. The reader is very apt
to remember this, particularly if in
exchange for dollar bill he is re-

The United States subtreasury, at
Wall and Nassau streets, makes, and
has made it practice for years, of ex.
changing minor coin for United States
money of large denomination, and il
has many regular customers who are
so served. There are a number of GU
rious things about cents as they come
to the sub-treasury. In the first
place, they are quite extensively coun.
terfeited This may seem strange, ~
the profit in counterfeit cent is neces
sarily small. 1t is true, however, new
ertheless, and is supposed to be the
work of Italians, who, more largely
than any other nationality, seem to
favor the imitation Of our minor and
subsidiary coin. The Brooklyn and
New Jersey ferry companies, the ele-
vated railroads of both New York and
Brooklyn and the various slot-machine
companies are regular customers for
the exchange of cents for other money
at the sub-treasury. At times they
turn in enormous quantities, the slot
companies alone ranging between ono
hundred and twenty-five and seven
hundred dollars day. As might be
expected, all sorts of oddities in
the way of coin come in with the
quantity taken in the machines. In
addition to the counterfeits are scores
