PASSING OF A FAMOUS PARIS RESTAURANT.

Americans who know the Paris restaurant
called the Grand Velour will not be sur
prised to learn that it has finally closed it's
doors after an existence that began in 1850.
In the golden days of the Palais Royal the
Grand Velour flo 1rished and as late as the
Paris exposition of 1867 its rather narrow
quarters were always crowded.
Its old clientele disappeared altogether
after the death of l. on Gambetta and its
patronage in recent years came altogether
from foreigners who had heard Of the
restaurant. Most of these visitors were
Americans who piously ate sole du rin blanc,
the specially Of the establishment for
many years. and wondered how any place
with. so little patronage could possibly
continue to do any business.
The Grand Velour, stuck at the end Of
one of the corridors of the Palais Royal,
was typical. until it's closing, of the Paris
restaurant at the end of the eighteenth
century. Lace curtains hung in front OF
the broad windows. and about the walls
ran a banquette, OF sofa, covered with red
velvet. Opposite this sofa the tables were
stretched. spread with fine napery, shiny
glass and silver. The woodwork was deco
rated in white and gold. There vera other
tables standing In the middle Of the room,

them In reopt years. At her desk at the

Since the public learned that Tifany's
had lost $4,000 in diamonds from their
workshop the public has wondered much
how the manufacturers Of jewels guard
themselves against thievery by workmen
and a good deal has been said about the

The fact is, say the manufacturers. that
they have no System" at all. It is a curious
fact about the business that while the
employees have every opportunity to steal.

when any piece of work is assigned. he
issues the materials to the worker These
are all carefully weighed. and the workn an
gives a receipt for them. This Is done
not so much to guard against theft as to
insure economy.
For when the workman hands back his
completed piece 1t is weighed. together
with the filings and scraps. A very slight
allowance is made for waste. and with this
allowance the weights must tally or the
workman is called down.
From the time the material is handed
over to the workman until the time when
he hands it in, a completed piece, he has
plenty of opportunity to steal it all and
skip. The workman may have his material
out for two weeks; any night Of that period,
he might hand in an empty box and skip
with the material-but he never does.

The place was like a scene in a dream.
Entering from the active life of the Paris
streets the stiffness Of the room was more
noticeable than ever. It rarely happened
that more than one party was dining or
lunching in the place at the same time.
In spite Of this limited custom, the restau-
rant was kept up in every detail. Rather
old looking were the neat walters, and some
Of the gold had worn away from the wooden
columns.
But it was possible to give almost any
order and have the food served. It was
always as delicious as the reputation OF the
house led guests to expect. The cellars
were famous. and the wines that we're not
sold in the restaurant found eager bidders
in the proprietors of rival eating houses.

CTATE TO BREED

Mississippi Needs Better Dogs to Run
Down Escaping Criminals.

NEW ORLEANS, June 3.-Several recent
failures to run down escaping criminals
with bloodhounds and some mistakes
made by the hounds in tracking the wrong
persons have convinced the Mississippi
authorities of the necessity of improving
the breed of hounds.
There are no State hounds and the authori-
ties are compelled TO depend upon such
packs as the Sheriffs OF fanciers may offer.
These are far from satisfactory for the local
