"Write and send as quickly as pos

Although he onl} pronounced this
word, his voice. his manner, his face
clearly sad
"This comedy is well acted; but
nevertheless H. is comedy. and 1
don't intend to be dupcd by it,"
Alasl after Prosper's answer, and
the iron-founder's coursely-expresse
opinion, the clerks knew not what to
think.
The fact was. that Paris had just
been startled by several financial
crashes. The thirst for speculation
caused ohe oldest and mos. reliable
houses to totter. Men of the most
unimpeachablc honor had TO sacrifice
their pride, and go from door 70 door

Credit, that rare bird of security
and peace. rested with none, but stood
with upraised wings, ready TO fly Off
at the first rumor OF suspicion
Therefor this idea of a comedy ar
ranged beforehand between the bank
er and his cashier, might readily oe-
cur to the minds of people who, il not
suspicious, were at least aware Of
all the expedients reso- to by spec
ulators, in order to ga time, which
with them often meant salvation.
N. Fauyel had had too much expert

doubt on the faces around him
"Oh. don't be alarmed, monsieur" "

He left the room, went up the mar

HELMET SAVED HIM.
Methodist Bishop Attacked by Japan
ese Coolies.

Washington, July 19.-An account has
reached here of the details of an assault
committed on some Methodist mission
aries in Korea by japanese coolies
about the 18th of last month As Bishop
Moore of the M. E. church was Ell
route to the town of Soowon to dedicate
a church his party was attacked by Jap
anese coolies, who were building the
road from Seoul to Fusan. With the
bishop were his young daughter and
Messrs- Appenzeller and Swearer and
all of the party suffered The bishops
pfth helmet saved his skull from a
crushing blow, Appenzeller was struck
down with a blow from a club, and
Swearer, the other. missionary, was
struck with a piece of cordwood, which
gashed his head across the forehead to
the bone and may have permanently in
jured one eye.
The japanese minister at Seoul i'm
mediately put in motion all the ma
chinery at his command to secure the
capture and punishment OF the assail-
ants. It does not appear that any rae
ial feeling caused the attack.
