chair. You were pale and frightened
I pulled him away and took him into
the smoking compartment. He came
back again, and I a moment later

Rose extended him her hand, which
he eagerly grasped.

POLICE OF PARIS.
Their Methods Effective Even II Some
times Dramatic.

The police of Paris have always
made it a rule to keep closely in touch
with the criminal element, the spies
and secret officials of the department
posing as criminals among the real
criminals when necessary to learn their
secrets. The following incident, in
which the national impulse for dramat-
ic effect crops out, will serve to illus
trate how we'll at times they do their
work:
At the beginning of the French rev.
olution the chief of the police of Paris
had upon his register the names of no
fewer than 1000 suspected and deprav-
ed characters whose pursuits were
known to be of a criminal nature.

ANCIENT HEBREWS AND THE SEA
They Were Not Sailors and Only Three
Tribes Were Ever Near the Shore.

No civilization of the world can COM
pare with those that have sprung up
around the harbors of the Mediterra
mean. Greece, Italy and Carthage will
always be the wonders of history. The
shore line of Palestine is fiat, being
here and there. 1t is not surprising
that the songs of sailors putting out
to sea are seldom heard in the records
of the children of Israel.
Throughout the history of the Old
Testament the Hebrews had little de-
sire to engage in a commercial and
seafaring life. The sea spreads out be-
fore them for spectacle, for music, for
promise, but hardly for use. In the
Psalms the straight coast line serves
to illustrate the irremovable limits
which the Almighty has set between
sea and land. In the Prophets it's roar
and foam symbolic the futile rage of
the heather beating on Jehovah's pur-
pose for the children of Israel.
AS it was in their literature so it was
in their life-the sea was barrier, not
a highway. From the first it was said:
"Ye shall have the great sea for bor-
der" Only three tribes ever touched
the seashOre. Dan was remaining in
ships" in Deborah's time, but he left
them for more secluded regions of the
Jordan valley. N>port is mentioned
in connection wit Asher and Naph-
tall, the word haven" being trans
lated as but a beach" washed by the
sea. In the building of the temple tim

In connection with the Anaconda
Copper company's report for the year
ended December Slst it will be OBJ
served that while a deficit Of 81. 209, O9S
was revealed. the net earnings of the
company IN the last six months were
$L21i,013. The two quarterly divi-
dends In the last half OF the year
amounted 70 Si.22O.OOO. Therefore the
Anaconda came within S5.9S7 of earn
ing It's dividend in the last half Of
1910. This showing was made in the
face of curtailment in production as
well as lower prices for copper than
prevailed in the first half II can also
De said that the Anaconda did not get
the benefits resulting from consolida-
tion until after the first half OF the
year. II is generally known in the
trade that Anaconda has not sold cop
per as freely as its competitors. 1t is
fair 70 assume that Accommodations of
copper during tho~year were heavy
Had the Anaconda disposed cf all the
copper It produced lis net profits would
have been larger.
