NEW YORK. Sept. 13.-There's a
dapper young French dentist in town
today enjoying the sights OF New York

fruits Of a new enterprise which he has
introduced on the vide Atlantic he is
DR.. Georges Marceau. OF Paris. and he
is ready to show TO his confreres in
the Quarter Latin a pocketful OF Am
erican gold eagles as the result Of his
originality.
DR.. Marceau arrived on la Savoie, Of
the French line. He was not on the
passenger list as DR.. Marceau. but he
was on board and he proceeded to put
brand new transatlantic business in
operation before the Sayoie was two
hours out OF Havre yesterday a week
ago.
The energetic young Frenchman made
himself agreeable to the saloon pas
sengers on the Hner at once upon en-
barking. He was pleasant spoken and
suave. and IL took him very little
while TO find that there were several
passengers in the savOie's first saloon
who were not at all 'averse to employ

lists chair.
New Set at Sandy HoCk.
"A new set before you reach Sandy
Hook" was DR.. Marceau's promise to
his clandestine patients.
DT. Marceau staked all his earthly
possessions on the venture. Ali his saw
ings were invested IN the acquisition OF
a stateroom and a room adjoining, but
he had also nerve, which possibly he
acquired from some Of his American fell
