Prophesied that McLaurin's majority
on tho first ballot would be oyor
10000. They might tell you SO

who would have told you weeks and

in on tho first ballot, evon so poor
prognosticator as tho Bureau said
that. There wore many who placed
the figures at 5000 majority. and
thought that rather vonturesomc,
but the result has been astounding.
1t has been revelation. 1t has
proven three things most emphat

lines moro and moro cvcry day, and

A PuzzLtNG PARIS HOUSE.
1t Eas T4yo Spiral stasrways Which Lock
 Like Ono ot Tlgnes.

One o1 the greatest curieaities of Paris is the house with tho doable staircase. It does net figure in the guidebook and is not among the placea of interest that arc photographed but, for all that, It is of greater interest than many of the things that come within this class.
 This house has entrances at 85 Rue Radziyiil ard at IS Rue de Valois. It is in the quarter o2 the Palais Royal-tbat palace now given up largely to restau- rants and cheap jewolry chops, and onoo the residence of the most licentious of French princes, the regent d'Orleans, The quarter IS one of the most central in Paris, and all Americans who have been in Paris know 1t, but the house, which is few steps from the Palais Royal, the Ru8 dc Riyoli and the Louvre, escapes general attention because it faces on dark and narr0w streets.
 Each staircase begins OH opposite sides of the central space of the house and is continued separate right up to the roof. They are in 9 graceful spiral form. The house ia nine stories high, very con- siderable height for one so old As you look up the wail you can hardly realize that there is moro than one stairway.
 The result of this arrangement is that one stairway takes you to the first floor apartment on the right, the second floor Oil the left, and so on. The other stair way takes you to the first floor on the left, the second floor on tho right, end 80 on. You must he very careful to choose the right stairway when you are going to an apartment. otherwise you may mount as far as the sixth floor and find yourself on the wrong side of the house. It is just ss well then to go to the top and come down by tho other stairway.
 IL is difficult to describe the puz2ling effect of this oontrivaneo on these who sec 1t for tho first time. No more iD- Renious contrivanoe fer exciting pro fanity and causing confusion was over designed by architect. The beauty lies in its simplicity. which gives i5 an ad. borious devices.
 It ig a fayoyite trick with those who know tho house to take moderately in toxieated friends to see it. Tho man who knows tells his friend to go up stairs. Then he goes up himself by the opposite stairway. When he has gone ID about two stories, he leans over the baIuatrade and tells his friend to join him. The inebriate endeavors to do so, running up and down stairs, but never able to catch the other. New York Journal
