bly, surprised to find myself face to
face with a very curious little building.
l could not help eXclaiming to my
companion, Have we been transported
by magic to the banks of the Nile?'
Curious to know the history of this
construction, which has all the air of
an Egyptian temple, | made inquiries
in the neighborhood and was informed
that it had been erected some ten or
twelve years ago by the members Of a
strange society, supposed to be wor-
shippers of Isis, and that they used TO
meet there every Thursday and sun
day. These gatherings lasted only for
six months. for as is usual with such
little sects. the society came to an
carly end through lack of funds. After
remaining empty for some time the
building was taken over by a wineshop
keeper, but he toe, had i'll success, and
was compelled to close his doors. Had
the wine seller opened such a building
as this on the Boulevard de Clichy at

ILLuMIHAT TED street.
A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT.

CARRIED in thousands of red, blue aad
white lights the Main street, Monday
night, resenbled the great milky way,
yet the lights We're not glazing, but more
of a subdued and radiant hue. The
blending of the coored lights with the
plain white ones hung in long wires from
the tops of buildings and strung across
the front of the stores and draped over
the doorways all melted into one light
as one gazed at it from a distance.
Wires holding perhaps 100 lights were
strung from curb to curb and about 80
feet apart from the Bay View to the
postofice. The more brilliant and elab-
crate illumination was confined to the
business blocks from Silver street to
Temple. Around the corner on Silver
street enterprising merchants had decor
ated almost as lavishly as those on the
main thoroughfare, and the same splen-
did atmosphere of hustle held sway in
