Paris Municipal Council Decides That

Visitors to Paris, as well as the Pa
risians themselves, have for good many
years now been SO accustomed to the
sight of the Eiffel tower, whichever way
they turn, that the decision to demolish
1t, which has just been arrived at, will
surprise most people and be regretted by
many. Nothing can be done immediately.
since the concession expires only in

the Paris municipal council steps in to
save 1t, the Tour de trois cents metres
will then disappear.
All constructions zof the kind are, no
doubt, essential m0nstrosities. but it has
never been objected that the wonderful
steel erection in the Champe de Mars is
ugly. Its lines are indeed distinctly
graceful. and such landmark will hard
ly vanish without leaving a void. It's
removal has been dictated by the deter
mination of the municipal authorities to
transform completely the. Champ de Mars

called at the house and asked for Mrs.
Bell, she came down stairs with all the
airs of an invalid. stopping at the turn
in the hall and asking him his bust
ness. On learning that he wanted in
formation concerning herself she re-
fused to come any farther and lam
guidly declared that she was sick and
that he must leave. With the mention
of his character as a police officer and
the name of Barnesdale, she threw off
her air Of sickness and came down the
steps like wild animal. She demand
ed to know what the detective wanted,
but he refused to tell her, being salts
fed that she was acting a part.

had left the city suddenly and the
house was vacated. The household
goods were shipped to Albany, N. Y,
and re- shipped from there all trace be-
ing lost. The next chapter In the af-
fair was the suing of Barnesdale for
several thousands of dollars for the

to arrange the details Of the alleged
