but which is one of the favorite stories
of NJ. Victorien Sardou.
In 1900, when the fro~tage Of the
Theatre Francois was rebuilt after the
disastrous fire in which one of the
most charming actresses Of the Maison
de MoIiere lost her life, several shops
disappeared, among them being that OF
the famous Restaurant Cheyet. 1t was
not properly speaking a restaurant.
Chevet used to sell liqueurs, groceries,
smoked meats, etc. and in couple OF
low ceilinged rooms on the first floor
he would serve a meal or two to con-
noisseurs. One day in 1865 or 1866
two young men Of fashion, Russians
both of them, came in and called for
dinner in one of the little rooms which
were above the shop. They asked for
caviare, but when they got it they pro-
tested loudly that the caviare was Of
inferior quality and called for the own
er of the shop. He came, apologiZed
and was met with the remark, tender
ed iaughingly by one of the diners,
that next time they came they would
bring their own caviare. They came
again and brought it in a little white
wooden barrel, and when they left they
had it put on one side for them. From
time to time the two young Russians
came and dined chez Chevet, dined in
varia bly, in the same room and always
began their dinner with their own ca
Ware. One day they finished the bar
rel, and few days later, in the after
noon, one of them brought another one.
''Put it in the little cupboard in the
room we always dine H." he said to
the waiter, land do not let anybody
touch it until we come to dine" The
Mraiter took it, but on his way upstairs
something peculiar struck him.
"Leok at this barrel,'' he said ito the
restaurant keeper. There is some
thing queer about it."
THAT is no business Of ours" said
the master Of the establishment, land
I am not going ito look at it, anyhow.
What will our customers say if they
find we have opened it?'
''Oh," said the waiter, ave can open
It and close it.agaIn, and, they will new
er- know. 1t is certainly different from
the last barrel. 1t is heavier. to begin
with"
His insistence prevailed, and the bar
rel was opened. The restaurant keep
er and thee waiter started back in
fright. There was no cavaire, but gun
powder in that little barrel which was
an internal machine. The little dining
room was exactly underneath the impe-
rial box, and there is little doubt that
the emPeroR's next visit to the Coincide
Franchise would have been his last had
the carefully. laid plot not been discov-
cred. The pletters never were caught,
although the secret of the plot was
carefully guarded and traps were laid

several days.-St. James Gazette.

The Weatherins of coaI.

It is probably not generally known
that coal exposed to the atmosphere
undergoes chemical changes greatly
affecting its quality. Moisture is the
most powerful agent in producing such
change. 1t is a matter of common
knowledge among men engaged in the
making Of Illuminating gas that coal
which has been stored for a long time
experiences a loss OF hydrocarbons,
and the effects of the change are
shown in a diminution Of the volume
of the coal and in loss Of illuminat-
Ing power in the gas produced from it
Such chemical changes occurring In
great,masses Of coal may even produce
sufficient accumulation OF heat to cause
spontaneous combustion.

Chas H. Bliss,
Pensacola's Late Mayor.

Mayor Chas. H. Bliss, the announce
ment of whose death yesterday morn
Ing came as a severe shock 20 hun
dreds of friends all over-the city, was
one of the most remarkable men
whom Pensacola has ever known.
A theorist and an idealist by nature,
there were few corners of the realm
of thought or fancy which his mind
had not explored and there were few
people with whom he came in contact
who had not been impressed by the
rosy brightness of his dreams and by
the splendid faith which he himself
had in them.
And be it said that his theories and
his dreams were usually good ones,
The fruition of which was calculated to
make the world brighter and the peo-
pie in it better and happier.
His was not the dream of the mis-
anthrope, but the vision of the optfm-
list The night never grew so dark
but that he saw a star of hope, and,
just ahead, the silver lining of the
clouds was bursting on his view. His
dreams were of the kind that harm no
one but that help many. His ideals
were of the brightest and the best.
Extreme in his own opinions, Mayor
Bliss never cherished any personal
feeling against those who differed with
him He had no regard for custom,
precedent, or conventionality, unless,
in his judgment, it was right, and he
was Unsparing in his treatment or
men or measures when he believed
them to be wrong. He had no quar-
ter for others in such cases and he
asked none for himself
He was fluent and gifted writer
and it was with the pen that he was
at his best. He wrote a great deal
and he always wrote well. The
columns of The Journal were the IA
vorite channel for his articles dealing
with public questions and it was chief
~ through this medium that he be-
came known to the public and that
his ideas of municipal reform took
such a strong hold on the minds of
the people.
Mayor Bliss enjoyed the distinction
of being the only man who had ever
been elected to succeed himself as
mayor of the city, and his heart and
soul were bound,up in its development
and progress. That he should have
died Just at the time when his dreams
Of Pensacola's greatness were about
to be realized is one of those inexpli-
cable ironies OF fate for which death
is so frequently responsible.
There were few men more fond OF
his home and his fanny than was he
and it was there that the true nature
of the man was seen at its best He
was poor in money, but he was rich
In the affection of his family and his
friends and his wealth in this respect
was really more to be sought after
than the other kind with which many
apparently more fortunate are bur-
dened and many also alas or cursed.
Pensacola is better for having had
Mayor Bliss as one of her citizens. and
the sympathy of the entire commun-
ity, irrespective of party or faction,
goes out to his bereaved family in
their present hour of distress.
