TO KEEP TAB ON THE STREETS
Curious Device With Which House
keepers Can See the Passer-By.

There is one little wrinkle. as II were.
of metropolitan life which is not much In
vogue in the capital" remarked New
York drummer this morning in an up-
town hotel. 1T may be that the residents
of the city of magnificent vistas are not
given to rubber necking, as are the resi-
dents of uptown New York Be that as It
may. however, l have seen only a few Of
the little square double and triple mir
rors projecting from the second-sto
easements in the residential section of
Washington. In the uptown sections of
Gotham, on the side streets and on 5th
and Madison avenues, these projecting
mirrors are familiar sight. While you
will observe them in various parts of the
resident quarters of the metropolis, they
are the more frequently seen on the aris-
tocratic blocks. but they are very popular
In Philadelphia too.
The mirrors are about eight inches
square, projecting about two feet from
the window sill and pitched at such an
angle that person may sit inside and
see reflected therein all who pass their
door either way and for some distance
up and down the street. With the triple
mirror they may also see who ascends
their steps. Their utility comes in in
several ways. AS 1T is not considered good
form to sit at the window and rubber
neck at the passers by milady may
nevertheless crafty her natural curiosity
at her ease by CHANGING from time to time
into the little beyeled refectors that pic
ture the street and the pedestrians as
clearly to her as though she were sitting
close to the window pane with her elbow
upon the sill, her little chin in the palm of
her little hand and her damask cheek and
violet eyes pressed close TO the crystal glass.
If she sees her dearest friend approaching
in a new gown, or hears a carriage door
bang at the foot of the steps, and observes
her sweetest enemy alight smothered In a
set of brand new sables, she knows what's
In store for her from her unseen point of
vantage behind the lace curtain some mo-
ments before the bell tinkles and the maid
announces their presence below.
These little street ref1ectors have been
in vogue In New York ever since l can re-
member, and that's over thirty years, and
they appear to be even more popular today
than when l, q boy, wandered around
what is now the Tenderloin, but then the
best quarter in town, used TO wonder what
their object was; and / should think they
would be in more general use In this city,"

rom the London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle.
The astonishing statement was made dur
ing the hearing of a case at Bradford police
court recently that a man had sold his
seven-year-old son for the paltry sum OF
Cd The heartless father. Arthur Smith. u
brass finfsher. and woman named Ada
Smith were in the dock charged with
cruelty to the boy.
The alleged sale took place four years ago.
and the transaction was made the subject

however fell Ill, and, being compelled to
enter the infirmary, the boy returned to his
father. The man left home for holiday
at Morecambe while the woman. with
whom he was living. proceeded to Halifax.
The boy was left behind locked up in a bed
room. He was clad In shirt, and the only
food left for him was three pieces of bread
and little water His bed consisted OF
soap box and blanket. The boys dis
tress attracted the attention of neighbors
on the following day.
The house was watched. and Smith re-
turned after three days. A large crowd had
assembled and gave him q hostile reception.
The chairman of the bench said the case
was the worst that had come before them,
and the man and woman were each sem
fenced to two month"; hard labor.

be displeasing. And since II Is parliament
and parliament alone, which has the choice
of the President, naturally the man picked
out is one who will not interfere with the
absolute power which has thus developed
unconstitutionally and by force OF prece-
lent alone into the hands of senators and
I, deputies. This one fact would suffice to
aeuonstrate the superiority of the Amerf-
can system over the French.
Armand Fallieres, president Of the senate
Is Doumers most serious rival, and he has
the signal advantage Of being a man who
would obey and who, though having won
derful political prestige, has never been
guilty of any sensational act in connection
with anything. He is sixty-four years old
and is a lawyer, though he started In poll
tics so early, when barely twenty-five, that
he had not the time to practice seriously.
When Loubet, from president of the SEN
ate. became President of France In 1899
Fallieres was elected his successor at the
head of the senate. and has been reelected
without opposition every year. 1t Is said
that Loubet would like to see Fallieres the
next president, and it is on the strength Of
this report that a further rumor, that of
the presidential elections being advanced,
has been launched.
Regularly, the election should be held In
January, one month before the expiration
of LoubetS seven years, and there would
then be two presidents for thirty days But
general elections for the senate are also
to be held at the beginning of January and

always possible he could not then be
thought of for the presidency of France, it
is said that Loubet has considered the adj
visibility of resigning In December, 50
that the presidential elections may be over
and done with before the end of the year
and Fallleres may have the best possible
opportunities.

OF the various favorites now proposed
only one is a man of exceptional strength,
and that is Paul Doumer. president Of the
chamber of deputies. And on this ac-
count, while he would make an ideal pres
ident for a truly republican country like
the United States, energetic enterprising,
intelligent and experienced in many ways,
he will meet with more organized oppo-
sition than anybody else, Furthermore,
Doumer is a brilliant type of self-made
man, and. while there is no country in the
world where pure merit stands so good
chance as in France, at the same time the
man of humble origin is not welcomed as
chief executive. Casimir Perier and Car
not were popular simply because they Were
aristocrats; Felix Faure achieved popul ir
success by affecting the aristocrauc con-
duct which was not his by birth: and seven
years of loyal exercise of his functions
have not ena bled Loubet to live down the
prejudice caused against him by the SIM

But Doumer on the other hand, has

had a single serious charge brought against
him in the course of his long public ca

Der Of deputies had ever had, and pointed
out as sure to be the next president, a
plot for his overthrow was forthwith de-
veloped and so skillfully executed that he
does not receive attention now even when
he addresses the chamber as an humble
deputy, and no one would dream of put
ting him forward for any official position
whatever. When Waldeck Rousseau was
hailed as the savior of France and some
went to the extreme of calling him the
greatest statesman in Europe, his erstwhile
friends united to checkmate his every
move, until, no longer supported by the

ercises his authority for the sole good and
immediate glory of the young men under
him. They recognize this: but ask some
gridiron-scarred veteran what was the

a chop, soft-boIled eggs, and cup Of eof-

been accustomed to it. All others are for

than to beg for 1t, no matter how tantaliz-
ing the aroma from the steaming cups of
their more favored table mates on frosty
morning.
While the men are disposing of this SIM
pie but highly nutritious meal as well as
the other two of the day, their manner of
eating Is constantly under observance.

fullback, quit boiling your food like a
starved dog. Eat slowly-eat like Smith,
who's chewing as deliberately on his mouth
full of chop COW chews her cud"
Look here, Henry, this eatln amt a life
