Brigand Chief at Fourteen Years.

Asnieres, the lively suburb of Paris, has
the dubious honor of having harbored in
its midst the youngest briSand chief per-
haps known, boy of fourteen. How this
lad was able to direct a formidable gang
of thieves and robbers, and have under
his orders other outlaws several years
older than himself, will no doubt be eX
planned when he is brought up for trial.
He would probably still be at large if it
had not been for the information given
by his confederates, who were al caught
before the police could lay their hands
on him. He answered to the rather nopc
appellation of something like The
SQUIRE and had equipped several of his
hangerson with knives and firearms
His band consisted of eight or ten
Youngsters. like himself, between twelve
and sixteen years of age. Their scheme
was to enter small but fiourishng shops.
break open the cash boxes and make off
with the contents.
The operations were exceedingly lucra-
tive. and i'll short time they had col
lected a booty worth $500 1t was quite
usual for them to find from SD To $I,W
in cash in each box.
Complaints naturally poured in from all
sides and the police thought they had
to do with a gang of old. experienced Jail
birds. But things turned out otherwise
when a policeman happened to notice
three ragged-looking youngsters so into
bar and change bank note, showing
at the same time that they had guam
tity of gold pieces
The policeman inferred that the lads
could not have come by so much money
by lawful means, and took them to the
station. where they admitted belonging
to ar organized gang. They refused
however. to give the name of their ring
leader until all the other members OF
the band, two OF whom had revolvers in
their possession, were arrested.

qus katsura. on becoming premier, paid
special attention to this topic.
The railways were formerly under the
control of the ministry of communities

an independent department, has been es-
tablished. and Baron Goto the minister
of communications, has evolved plan
which has received the imperial sanction.
The railway board comes under the di-

German Soups.

In the first place. every dinner in
Germany begins with soup. No fam
lily so humble, no housewife so busy
that soup is omitted Perhaps il Is
only a lentil soup, with soaked and
boiled lentils and small bits of sau-
sage added to a beef stock.
"Biersuppe" is made with a pint
each of milk and water. a half pint
beer, three ounces each of currants,
flour and sugar. A good dash of salt
and the yolk of an egg, stirred after
the other ingredients have been
brought to a boil Add a little CHINA
mon and dish while very hot. Serve
wifs Zwiebach.
Chocolate soup is another German
delicacy 1t is a thin, sweet prepare
ton of chocolate.
Die Hausfrau has another strange
mixture which she serves upon spe-
cial occasions. 1t is a broth made OF
ripe rose-pips pounded and cooked in
weak stock. A few whole pips, boiled
till tender are left to float upon the
surface of the plateful.

To the modern youth of this coun-
try the whisker, whether worn by old
or young, is designed solely for ridi-
cule and scorn. On the eastern sea-
coast we have reached the heyday OF
the barber in that probably nine men
out of ten are smooth shaven. Yet
the facial butchers are not grateful.
Even when sharpening their razors
for the mutilation of their next victim
they grumble loudly: I'VE lose money
on shaves; give us the old days OF
neatly trimmed whiskers and floating
mustaches, when ointments and hair
tonics were as carefully considered as
vintage wine and the adornment OF
the face was of more importance than
the adornment of the body"

ARE WORTH ONE CENT APIECE.
Seeds of the Ginseng Command That
Price and They Are Scarce
at That.

Ginseng seeds are worth one cent
apiece or from eighty to one hundred
dollars pound. Dried root is worth
1925 a pound.
When first growing from the seed
the ginseng plants have two forks or
stalks and one leaf on each stalk.
The second year it adds another leaf
on each part and the third year the
plant grows in three parts with three
leaves on each part and this year a
seed ball forms
This grows direct from the main
stalk of the plant and from four to
five inches above the foliage The av-
erage plant says a writer in Outing,
produces from fifty to sixty seeds, and
sometimes goes as high as 100 seeds.
Wild plants yield better than culti-
waited.
The fourth and fifth years one leaf
is added 10 each stalk. The fifth year
the plant is full grown having three
forks and five leaves to each stalk 1t
grows from one to two feet in height;
sometimes as high as q inches. The
leaves are broad and fiat. about four
inches long and two inches wide when
full grown, with escalloped edges. p
1t takes five years to grow the root
from seed for market and Is months
TO terminate the seed for growth.
There is more cultivated root now on
the market than wild The plants are
found on high dry land in the woods
and never in swampy places.

Wit of Srea, Surdeon.

OF Abernethy's wit numerous tales
are told. A lady consulted him about
a nervous ailment and described her
symptoms at wearisome length. He
referred her to his book" but she
persisted in her efforts to get further
information from him. May | eat
oysters, doctors? May take supper?"
Her questions rapidly followed one an
other. I'll tell you what, madam;
you may eat anything but the poker
and the bellows, for the one is too
hard to digest and the other full of
wind"
1t was the same Abernethy of whom
a rather indolent but wealthy patient
inquired as to a cure for govt. Live
upon sixpence a day and earn it" was
the answer.

ENJOYED HIS LAST MOMENTS.
Eccentric Frenchman, Having Made
Up His Mind to End His Life,
Did Things in Style.

Says the Paris correspondent OF the
the ripe age of 20, NJ. Auguste Jabois,
of independent means, residing in
the Rue Poncelot, put an end to his
existence with no little ceremony. Be-
fore retiring at night he spend near
ly an hour discussing his favorite
dishes with his housekeeper, and
finally drew up a sumptuous menu
for next days lunch. 1t was to be
a great day for him, he informed her,
and he must have everything Of the
best. He had purchased masses of
flowers, and these were to be placed
in all the rooms.
The good woman grew seriously
alarmed, as in her opinion these prep
arations could only mean that her
master intended to get married, and
that her rule was at an end. Her
suspicious appeared TO be confirmed
when NJ. Jabois came down next day
in his dress suit, with all his decora-
tiors. He took a cab and drove off
to fetch the bride, thought the un-
happy housekeeper
but to her amazement her master
returned alone He sat down to his
meal with hearty appetite, and then
after giving orders that he was not to
be disturbed, he retired to his study.
There he was found dead, some hours
later, having been suffocated by gas.
His matutinal expedition proved to
have been to an undertaker's, where
he ordered q handsome coffin"

Mrs. lsoi was made the subject of 4
murderous assault last night by MORT
motto. and as a result this gentleman
now languishes in durance vile until
his case can be investigated. 1t Is
stated that the assault was perpetrat-

given away The secret Of the Twelve
Dollar Club. and that II was instiSatcd
by some of the "higherups" who fear
further disclosures.
Mrs. Isoi sought U. S. Attorney
Breckons as soon as she was able, and
lie got into communication with U. s
Marshal Hendry. That official secured
two special officers at the police sta
ton, and by $3.50 the man was under
arrest The assault took place at the
lsoi house Mrs. lsoi was given some
rough handling, being cut with bot
tie.
