To Pull Down Prison.

The prison OF st. Lazare is going to
be pulled down and rebuilt, and with
1t will disappear curious little relic
OF old Paris, tiny shop in which the
last public letter writer in France
piled his trade. In oldcn times, be-
fore education had become general,
the public letter writer did thriving
trade and the one just outside St
Lazarc had many customers OF note.
Among them was, if rumor and the
present proprietor of the little shop
may be believed, the world famous
Manon LaScaut, who dictated her love
letters to Dc8 GricuX there. where the
only customers now are illiterate ser
want girls, who write home to their
friends in Brittany. SO rare has the
necessity for vicarious letter writing
become that the present proprietor OF
the place has added another more
profitable trade to his program and
acts as an informal lawyer and man
of business to many of the prisoners
