FRENCH DETECTIVES.
They Are Trained For Their Duties In
a Regular Police School.


In Paris asplrants for positions in
the detective force are taught in a reg
ular school. where day after day they
are put through various exercises until
they become proficient and receive APP
pointments or show that they have not
the detective instinct In them.
The students first are trained in the
use of their eyes and their hands. One
OF the lessons consists In placing the
pupil In brilliantly lighted room full
Of furniture and ornaments. Then he
Is taken to another room and required
to make a sketch Of the room he just
has left, indicating the position Of all
the objects in It. He Is allowed to look
at a face for a minute and then re-
quired to describe the color Of the hair,
the eyes, the general form, etc. He
afterward is required to pick out a
photograph Of the face from among
several hundred others.
In educating the hand the student is
placed In a dark room in which are
many curious and unusual objects.
These he feels over and then writes a
description Of them. He must remem-
Der even the slightest details. One test
is to let him handle gems in the dark
and then tell what they are, whether
diamonds, rubies or what not. This is,
of course, an exercise for the more adj
vanced pupils.

oue.r Goldfish.

Beautiful and most interesting of all
goldfish is a native Of Japan, and 1t is
noted for the beauty Of its tail and the
abnormal length of its fms. The tail
resembles a delicate veil, and the fins
are developed to such an extent that 1t
is impossible for the fish to make rapid
progress in the water. 1t is therefore
solely on account of its beauty that It
is priced and because in this respect It
differs wildly from other varieties Of
goldfish, such rs the telescope fish,"
the eyes Of which bulge out OF the
head In most unsishtIy fashion; the
celestial eyed fish" which is also I'M
comely because its eyes are bullet
shaped and are ever turned skyward,
and the EGG fish" which Is so called
because its body Is somewhat amor
phous. but resembles an egg more
than anything else.

GET A TRUE FOCUS.

Ahabil Of looking a, things from
a distorted angle. Of focusing the
vision on things that depress and
susses, unhappiness and misery, is
a destroyer Of happiness and sue
cess. A man who goes about with
a funereal face. thinking hard
6mes," fearing dull seasons" dis
asier, panic and failure wherever
his interests center. is never a happy
man, rarely a successful one. Pes
amism is a destructive force in mems
lives, just as optimism is a eonsruc-
tive agency.-Seloeled.

There is a pretty story of Modjeska
and a new leading woman who was to
play the part Of Elizabeth In Schiller's
dreary play, 'Mary Stuart"
The new leading woman. who was
to assume the part Of the red haired
sovereign, was beautiful young per-
son whose acting experience had been
limited to y few seasons in modern So
clety plays. On the night Of the first
performance, in the most important
scene Of the drama, where the captive
Mary confronts Elizabeth In Fotherln-
gay park, all was not well. The new
leading woman, wearing wig for the
first time In her career and looking I'M
comfortable in the high Elizabethan
ruff. was III at ease IN the beginning,
and, losing one Of the chief words and
thereby the meter from her opening
lines, she began TO founder and soon
dried up" completely.
This left Schiller's unhappy Mary
standing III the center or the stage
waltlsg TO be adequately insulted. But
Elizabeth's mind was blank, madam
could see that, and, jumping to her
last speech, the curtain was brought
down. Everybody on the stage was
distressed. But instantly the beautiful
young woman, disguised as the irate
Elizabeth. rushed to the stars side
and said:
Dear madam, am so sorry, but you
know you do look so lovable in this
part It was impossible for me TO say
those terrible things to your
For a second there was n mixed ex-
