Tho Great Vidocu.

Vidocq, the great French detective
 was born in Aras In 1775. He began life as baker and early became the terror of his companions by his athletic frame and violent disposition. At the same time he was a notorious thief and after many disgraceful adventures he enlisted in the army. In 1796 he re. turned to Paris with some money, which, however, he soon squandered Next he was sentenced at Lille ro eight years hard labor for forgery, but re- peatedly escaped. and in 1908 he be- came connected with the Paris police as detective. His previous career enabled him to render important serv. ices, and he was appointed chief of the safety brigade. chiefly composed of re- pr1eved convicts, which purged Paris of the many dangerous classes. Ip 1918 he received a full pardon. and bis connection with this service lasted un. til about 1928, when he settled at St Mande as paper manufacturer. Soon after the revolution of 1880 he became a political detective, but with little success. In 1S4S he was again em- ployed under the republican govern, Dlent. but he died penniless in 1857.

We finally had to go on with the perform ance with the donkey left out. After the show was over we got together and tried to find out what had been the matter.

Moroccan Red Tape.

Official correspondence in Morocco Is couched in a very fowery and fam boyant style. 1t is interspersed with a variety of meaningless adulatory phrases that tend to confound the real meaning of the epistle. For example, an order to the minister of finance to contract a loan begins thus:
 Tn our present letter God increase his power and make the glorious sun and his moon glitter in the Armament of his felicity we have authorized our incorruptible servant (here follows name) to contract in the name and on the behoof of the treasury (heaven f1ll it) a loan of -" etc.
 Considering that the 'incorruptible servant" Is filching as much as he pos. sible can from the treasury 1t is cer. tainly necessary to pray that "heaven 6ll it."-London Graphic.
