TRICKS OF PARIS BEecARs.
All Stock Tales of the Trade Well
Known to Fraternity.

This city is the happy hunting
ground Of the beggar, and especially
at the New Year. He stops you at
every corner of the street; he tries
TO hand you out of your carriage the
moment You stop before shop or res
taurant. 1t IS partly the influence
or the season, but 1t is an evil that is
always with us more or less. Some
nave quite ingenious tricks to tempt
the pity of the passerby.
One lady, who is we'll known, de-
clares every evening at the Care st.
Lazare to any sympathetic looking
stranger that she is a governess, and
has lost her purse, and would the kind
gentleman lend her 30 eentimes. And
be pleased to give me your card" she
adds, so that I may return the
money" The ruse generally succeeds,
but the mendicant has never been
known to take the omnibus. except at
the close of a profitable evening. when
she has probably victimiZed a dozen
good natured persons. Another woman
who piles her singular industry in the
Place de la Concorde, addresses her
self exclusively to her own sex. AS a
result, she obtains as much as five or
ten francs from kindly matrons who
are touched by her story.
At the New Year the usual crop Of
beggars is so immensely increased
that one supposes that the compare
lively we'll off must descend into the
street to try their luck. No doubt it
is a meter" that has It's destinations,

George Junior Republic" He told
and described how a wealthy philan-
thropist had taken boys out of the
oity's by-ways to farm in New York
where had formed a republic of their
own. The boys elect their own officers,
have stores. run a bank, and in every
respect conduct themselves as in a
large republic, The lecture through
out was illustrated by stereoptioon
Views. which made this sociological
