De Greville well merited all Serigny
had said Of his shrewdness, and more.
Now see what a simple scheme he laid.
We were to first find where Ward
was hidden. He would certainly go
into hiding until his wound was
healed; the finding of the papers upon
him making 1T necessary he should not
be seen in Paris.
Where would he be likely to s~ecrete
himself? All, trust a woman for that;
so reasoned Jerome. What woman?
L'Astrea, Of course. OF her intrigue
with Ward, de Greville, who was a
handsome gallant with smooth
tongue, had learned from a waitress at
Bcrtrand's. This was the more prob
able because, Bertrand's being a pub
lie place, the confederate would seek
him there without suspicion. This con-
federate being unknown and unsus-
pected could come and go unchalleng-
ed. Jerome's deductions were plain
enough when he told me these things
and the wherefore.
1t was agreed our plan would be to
watch L'Astrea; she at least would en-
able US to find Ward, or his accom-
plice whom we most wished to dis
cover.
Who would do this? Why I, of
course, for no one knew me, or would
know me when l had wrought the mir
acle of shining boots, blue coat, curly
wig, laces at throat, in all which small
matters Jerome was a cOnnoiSseur, and
SO it was laid out with much care;
run the quarry to earth, Their continue
the chase as needs demanded.
Yet folly of f~ollies; how lightly are
such we'll arranged plans broken into.
Through q woman came all this
scheming, by a Woman's hand it was
all swept into naught. Both innocent
Of intention, both ignorant of effect.
Yet it was true. jerome and I, as we
then thought, disposed u pieces with
great are and circumspection, ad-
vanccd the pawns, guarded the king,
and made ready for the final check
mate. Yet a Woman's caprice. over
turned the board, scattered our puppets
far and wide, and by the tyranny OF an
accident recast our game on other
lines, without rule or rhyme or reason.

Fancy Prices for Victims.

London Truth: The test of the auc~
ton room is still an~tagcnistic to the eXs
aggerated prices which the violin fam
ciers would nav believe show the true
worth of old violins. Some excelLent
specimens We're sold last week, and
they were nearly all purchased by deal
ers, SO that their authenticity may al
most be taken for granted, but e2O0
was the highest price secured. This
was gained for a Joseph Guarnerius
Of 1871, while a Jerome Amati with GER
tificate by the renowned authority
Josef ChanoD fetched s100, an A. and
H. Amati Of 1880 went for EOS, and
some excellent old iddles fetched a lit
tie over ESQ each. 1 sometimes wonder
that ordinary purchasers do not buy
more goods at these sales, where, al
though no great bargains are likely to
be picked up-for the dealers would
not allow a violin to go to an outsider
for much under it's trade worth-yet
the prices are very greatly below those
asked in the shops, and are Of course
almost trivial compared with the fig
ures quoted by some Of the collectors.
The $4,000 fiddle is in fact a myth.
Nothing over $1,000 has ever been
known.

TRADITION IN ARCHITECTURE.
Phases Through Which American
Ruffdiur SEuIes Have Passed

Phases Through Which American
Building Styles Have Passed.
Forum: The European designers have
teen 80 carried away with the freedom Of
ss1e new art" that in architecture, where
Jaw must reign at least in a measure,
they ave allowed the freedom of the
Jew spirit I'm design to degenerate into
license and even anarchy. The reason Of
ahis is clear. Tradition, which has al
ways In architectural styles, ministered
Tor a while to progress In refinement, by
concentrating all effort upon the perfect
ing of the details of the style, has just as
uniformly In the end led to sterility in
3esign and then to q final reaction. This
p what IN taking place in France. Bel

iepted classic revival has bred WEAKNESS
and revoit.
In our 1--WE land we have suffered more
from the absence of traditions than from
their despotiSm. American architecture
aas only In recent years begun to learn
-sf,e value, and master the use for our own
special requirements, Of the forms and
aetails of the Renaissance and classic
~'evivals, OF which the French and Ger
mans have become so tired. Our problem
9aas been how to evolve order out of the
chaos Of styles; how to bring the too free
a~ndividualism of an architects efforts,
and the endless variety Of our changing
requirements. under the harmonizing in
'iuence OF unifying principles Of taste and
style. 1t IL not more variety, but greater
unity, that cur architecture has needed;
aot greater freedom. but more restraint.
The last ten years have witnessed q
aotable advance In this direction, due, no
aoubt, In part at least, to the influence
af the American schools of architecture
and the Paris Ecole des BeauX-Arts will
Sheir thorough training in the principles
Of sound composition and rational plan
aing, and the emphasis they place on the
and artistic handling of the
masses Of a design. That their training
results In no mere slaVish repetition of
H~ackneyed and traditional forms is seen
IN the freshness and freedom Of our
adaptations of the historic styles of the
&tenaissance Of our special needs. Very
Jew of our most successful architecture
works of recent years could be by any
chance mistaken for European buildings.
Under these conditions there could be no
occasion for ar artistic revolt Ike that
(which has produced the art nouveau In
europe. But as every European fashion
IS likely sooner or later to become the
fashion Or the fad on this side OF the
ocean, it speaks well for the taste of the
public and the good sense Of the archi-
fects of the United States that they have
F'~iscerned the distinction between the de-
