JoSeu ny the ApacheS is due to their really won
ueilW organization. They form a community by
'nenSel'es' apart from all the rest of Paris,
with their own laws. courts and executioners:
thelr secret passwords, and almost their own
ldhSuase' LOT the argOt they use is practically
uhlntelllglble to others. Merciless toward their
Vlctims, they are no less merciless in furnishing
those of their own number who are convicted of
treachery.
A few years ago one Painblanc was accused
OF being in league with the police. He was for
mally brought to trial, the judge being a leader
known as "lEspagnol." The charge against
Palnblanc was not fully proved, but his loyalty
was so doubtful that he was sentenced to exile.
Rising from his chair in the obscure dive where
the trial was being held, he hurled his knife at
IEspagnol with unerring accuracy, and the Judge
Tell dead with the blade in his heart. The police
rushed in and carried Painblanc to prison, the
Apaches making no effort to save him.
Another alleged traitor was Albert Durin. He
was condemned to death and two Apaches tied
him to the rails of a tunnel of the Belt Line
railway of Paris. He was found before a train
passed and rescued. How many traitors have
been executed by their comrades it is impossible
to know, for only in such cases as the foregoing
do the police learn about the operations of the
tribunals"
The Apache highwayman operates swiftly and
s%killfully. and lone strangers in the streets of
Paris are never safe from his attacks. His favo-
rite method, known as lie coup du Pere Fran
co.'s" is to strange his victim by twisting a
handkerchief about his neck. After robbing the
senseless man, the thug frequently will kill him
with the knife, for the Apaches seem to delight
in wanton murder done in what they choose
to consider an artistic" way. If the criminal
is arrested. a score of his companions spring up
apparently from the very pavement, and unless
the police are in force they are speedily routed
and the prisoner is rescued.
An observant visitor in Paris may see Apaches,
male and female, ON almost any street, but it is
in the Place de la Roquette that they are to be
found in crowds on OCCASION. There is set up

IS SCARED.
Fears That Mob Viii Get and
Hang Him.
PROTECTED BY MANY DEPUTIES
Junkin Terrified Hides Face With
Hat as Armed Guards Push
Him Toward the Court
Room.

Centerville, Iowa, May 29.-As John
murder OF Clara Rosen, the Ottumwa
choir singer, was being conducted
from the grand jury. room to the
criminal court in the Appanoose
county court house five hundred men
packed the p~assageway, many of
whom made threats.
AS he passed between two rows of
armed guards, Here he comes" said
n of the men in a low ton OF voice,
but it was loud enough for Junkin to
hear.
The negro stopped and refused to
go any further until actually pushed
through the crowd by Sheriff, Clark.
He covered his black face with his
lat to shut out the sight of the army
Of determined men, who, it is be.
lieved, would lynch him if left un.
guarded for a single instant.
Feeling is growing against the ne.
gro every minute and in fact it has
reached a stage that six deputies have
been sleeping in the same DON with
Junkin never closing their eyes all
night long.
The negro is shackled to a steam
radiator surrounded by a circle of
deputies. They not only fear a mob,
but that the prisoner will attempt
suicide, for he has declared to them
time and again that the law will new
err hang him.
Junkin realizes that his life would
be taken if the slightest opportunity
presented itself to the irate citizens
of Ottumwa, many OF whom are in
the city as witnesses and spectators.
Residents of Centerville and Appa-
moose county are also aroused over
the murder, especially since they
have heard the h%orrifying details from
the lips of witnesses. No one seemed
to realize the brutality of it until a
description had been given OF the
girls body by nearly a dozen wit,
nesses. 1t has caused such a feeling
against Junkin that the jury will be
compelled to return a verdict recon-
mending the death penalty in order
to prevent a %lynching.

the recently restored %guillotine, and
whenever there is to be an execution
the Apaches flock from all districts of
the city to witness the CHASTITY sight.
Silently they stand, gazing at the
grim instrument of death, until the
condemned individual is brought forth.
Then jeers and bowls break forth
from the crowd, and as the knife falls
the Apaches rush forward to dip their
handkerchiefs in the blood. These
they preserve as souvenirs, or sell
them to the degenerates of the upper
classes.
Strangely enough, the male Apa-
ches nearly all look alike. They are
hollow-cheeked, dark-haired, f~urtive-
eyed, shambling of gait and sallow Of
complexion-always easily recognized
among the throngs on the streets.
The women on the other hand, as a
rule, are handsome, spirited and in
telligent. They dress well and give
especial attention to the care of their
hair, which they never cover with a
hat. All of them, men and women,
profess to follow some trade as a
safeguard against the occasional
raids of the police on their haunts.
Official Paris is somewhat dis
mayed by the rapidly growing men
C of these Apaches bands. The
number of robberies and murders at
tributable to them is increasing
monthly, and as the victims very
often are travellers from foreign lands,
the crimes are having ar ~appreciI6le
effect on tourist business.
