the history OF the Louisiana Purchase. and
which must stand forth In strong relief at
the Worlds Fair. Is Napoleon-the man
who gave President Jene-son's Commission
srs an empire when they had only como

The magnificent. exhibit which the French
Government is preparing for the Worlds
Fair would in itself attract the attention OF
all who come TO ST. Louis next year. But
there are connecting bonds. local and per
sonal. that link Napoleon's name with ST.
Louis citizens. descendants OF men connect
ed with one Of the most romantic tales Of
history--the effort TO release Napoleon from
St. Helena and domlcile him under th. Stars

ALLEGED IMPOSTORS.

mas. and the police are doing their best to
place the alleged swindlers where they will
need nothing out of the ordinary for the
holiday season. Complaint was made yes
tsrday that q woman had been visiting
stores and getting a small supply Of candy.
One complaint came from Henry c. Fischer

that a woman called at his store and Or
dered ten pounds Of candy.
"I'n take two pounds with me-" she said.
"and I'd like the eight pounds sent to my

She assured the dealer that the bill would
be settled in full at the house. The candy
was sent to the address given, but the
