GUIMARD THE IDOL OF PARIS.

The elder Vestris, who flourished In
the middle of the eighteenth century,

duced but three supreme men-himself,
Frederick the Great and Voltaire. On
one occasion, when reproving his son
Augustus for refusing to dance be-

OF the king Of France, he said that he

Of art, and not of beauty for Guimard
was SO aggressively thin that she was
known as "the spider" She discovered
the great painter David, who helped
fragonard to adorn her house with
frescoes. Indeed, Fragonard for whose
paintings today fabulous sums have
been paid, lost his commission because
he dared to fall in love with his patron.
Guimard had a theater in her own
house, and her entertainments there
were deemed extravagant In an age of
luxury. Paris could not spare her to
London until she was passed her
fortieth year. She was a sort of bou-

so great was the esteem in which she
was held that one of the most dis

Lowell Journal A large force Of men
and teams is being worked to its full

The main street has already been
graded and will be completed within
a few days. This street will be $500
feet long and the width ITO feet, with
fifteen-foot sidewalks and ten feet of
planting space, leaving a sixty-foot
roadway. The street Is almost ready
for the laying of the street car tracks,
the material for which has not yet ar
rived.
In the center of the main street a
f1ve-foot conduit will be built entirely
of concrete, which will carry all sew
err gas and water pipes, telephone and
electric wires. The top of the conduit
will be seven inches below the surface
of the street
The boulevard leading from the
plaza and separating the residence and
business portions from the railroad
and manufacturing districts has also
been plowed and Is now being graded.
This avenue Is also 1890 feet in length,
800 feet wide at the plaza end and 200
feet wide at the beginning, gradually
widening as 1t approaches the plaza.
The center will be planted with trees
and shrubbery and on each side will be
ample roadways.
All roadways in the coming city will
| be graded as soon as possible, and none
will have more than a per cent grade.
The streets leading to the residence

HOW NAVAL SPIES

England Has Curious Way Dealing With These GenyDoe

naval officers are slaves of opium. and
1t has been shown how spies take ad-

valuable secrets. such as plans for de-
Tense or the construction of sub
marines.
1t is estimated that Toulon contains
some 80 opium dens used by naval
men. They are to all appearances
private houses, where the officers go
as If they were paying friendly visits.
The fact that they are really opium
dens. however, frequented, and in some
cases managed, by spies. was recently
revealed by a naval mechanic, who
was offered a large sum of money by
a woman who managed one OF them to
let her have the plans Of certain sub
marines. Fortunately. the mans mind
was not too cloudy to realize the dis
honor of such an action, and he
promptly reported the matter to his
superior. The woman was arrested.
tried, and sentenced to long term
of Imprisonment.
