Lies Apaches" said the police stolidly. He
should have known better than to go proving
about alone at night" And in the police records
another murder was put on the score OF the
thugs of the gay capital"
Paris is not proud of her Apaches, and the rest
of the world has known little of these criminal
bands though theatergoers in many American
cities during the last were given glimpse
of one phase of their life in the skillful but
voting Apache dance" imported from the French
music halls Yet the story of the origin, de-
velopment and deeds of these outlaw gangs is
fascinating if not edifying.
Nearly ten years ago there appeared suddenly
in the underworld of Paris young woman so
beautiful and animated that she at once attract
ed general attention and admiration among its
other denzens. Her head crowned with
great of lovely reddish-gold hair, on &C.
count of which she was promptly nicknamed
-Casque dor" or Golden Helmet" Suitors
quickly Hocked about the girl and in time she
selected from among them as her protector one
Lecat, known among his comrades a clever
thief and a bold fighter whom the police would
be glad to have behind the bars
All went well for time, until there came on
the scene a attractive scoundrel, named
Manda. Pretty, tickle Golden Helmet promptly
transferred her affections to the newcomer. and
then the trouble began. Lecat, the forsaken,
summoned his followers to his aid Manda also
had no lack of friends. and all the thugs in
the district of the Haes or markets had ranged
themselves on one side or the other. Many
bloody battle was fought in the streets between
the two bands, cheered onby their female friends
and not few men slain in these conflicts
Finally in one of the fercest of the encounters
Lecat himself was killed, and Golden Helmet
shouted aloud in Joy. But her triumph was
shortlived. Another leader for Lecat's band,
known as lie Manchot.' sprang up and the
night LIE Manchot caught Manda off his guard
and plunged knife deep into his back and

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. furtive-
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
ace 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 an appreciAble
effect on tourist business.

women's Clubs Combat Dread Disease

The organization OF the women's
anti-tuberculosis campaign was def
nitely begun in st. Paul in 1906, at the
time of the biennial meeting of the
General Federation of Womens Clubs,

and made Mrs. Rufus p. Williams of
Cambridge, Mass, chairman of the

Many people who are otherwise
healthy suffer from indigestion, or
dyspepsia. When you consider that
the stomach and allied digestive or
gans are the most important organs
of the body, 1t would seem that dis
order there is to be taken very seri-
ously.
Dyspeptics cannot eat the things
they like; food sours in the stomach,
then chronic constipation begins, or,
as is often the case, you have been
constipated all along. and the stools
are forced and irregular.
But there is no use letting Indigestion
go until 1t becomes chronic and under
mines your health. 1t is good advice to

FIRE
CAUSED BIG SCARE

BERLIN, Dec A report emanat-

one-half of the city of Baltimore, Md,
was in ashes, was printed widely in
Germany today. The loss by fire,
which occurred On Thursday, was es.
timated in the report at $60,000,000 and
evoked sympathetic editorials in the
newspapers, which also in many cases
reprinted the story of Baltimore's con-
flagration of some years ago.
Many Americans, some of them from
Baltimore, made anxious visits to the
American embassy and the newspaper
offices here inquiring for details.
