New YORK IN THE TRoPIcs7
Gulf Stream Some Day May Warm
the Icy Waters Of the
North,

Some day the Gulf stream may
smash back the icy waters of the Lab
rador drift and make New York as
warm as European and Asiatic cities
of the same latitude. 1t may even
come to pass, as Father Odenbach of
Cleveland suggests. that these PARTS
will be tropical. True, the Jesuit sci
enlist treasures us by saying that a
great swervins of the Gulf stream Is
improbable, but even the slim posi-
bility fills the Imagination with exotic
pictures. Orange groves in northern
New Jersey, coffee plantations in place
of Suffolk county cabbage patches.
rubber forests in Connecticut, alliga-
tors devouring canal-boat captains In
Newton creek and anacondas asleep
in Westchester jungles-it would all
be worth while living to see.
But the time is not yet. This
months heat is only natural. And in
August, when seeming simeon comes
upon us, do not misjudge the Gulf
stream. The hot air will be from the
great wind stream that rises In the
campaign textbooks and flows until a
Monday evening in November, the New
York Sun observes.

BLIND PLEAD WITH INVENTOR
Liquefied Radium Helps to Restore
Sight-May Be "Great
Discovery"

More than six thousand blind per-
sons, by deputy or directly through the
mails, have besieged Ethan l. Do1ds,
the Pittsburgh inventor of radium
screen "eyes," pleading piteously with
him to restore their sight.
Mr.. Dodds, with the aid of liqueficd
radium, did succeed some months ago
in improving if not restoring the vision
of a man who suffered a peculiar visual
ailment that had made him blind. Talk
ing of that achievement, the inventor.
who already had spent two fortunes
experimenting along that line, said
he'd give all he could ever hope to pos
sess in this world if he could only
promise sight to few of the blind who
had thus appealed to him. But, as yet,
he was "only on the edge of great
discovery" and could not, w,tlou!
many added qualities, hope to apply 1t
in any general way to the restoration
of sight.
Now Mr.. Dodds has received from
sightless sufferers more than six thou
sand pathetic appeals; some of them
accompanied by signed checks in blank.

choose, If you can give me back my

LAUGHING LAcENAIRE.

On December IA, 1884, gentleman
of distinguished appearance walked
briskly along a quiet street near the
Chopinette barrier, in Paris.
This pedestrian, who looked distin-
guished even under the handicap of
threadbare garments, was about thirty
five years old. He was rather small of
stature, but carried himself proudly.
His face was refined and Intellectual
the face of poet and dreamer. In
deed, at that hour all Paris was whis-
thing and singing one Of his songs,
1.-THE Fife and the Drum" He had the
hands and hair Of an artist, and the
joyous carefree laugh of boy. 1t
was good thing to hear Laccnaire
laugh.
Behind Lacenaire there walked a
man of vulgar appearance. His name
was Avril. He was quite young, not
more than twenty-five, and he had
been SO unfortunate as criminal that
Lacenaire was sorry for him, and was
determined to give him chance to do
better work.
Presently they stopped before a
dwelling of prosperous appearance.
"This is the place." said Lacenatre.
do you remember my instructions
quite clearly? Yes? Then allons vite!
The poet rang the doorbell, and the
door was opened by young man.

naire, tive have come to see your moth

laughing Lacenaire, who was dressed
like a prince. He laughed and jokec
throughout the proceedings, and drove
Avril and Francois to frenzy time
and time again by his ridicule. Upon
several occasions the guards had to
hold them, they were SO anxious to
get at his throat.
Francois was sentenced to life i'm
prisonment, and Lacenaire and Avril
to death. So one day in 1885 these
two made their last appearance in
public. Avril died first, and met his
fate with british calmness. Lacenafre
tried to appear jaunty and joyous, but
it was with an effort. He was excited
and nervous. Being man of fmagina-
ton, q poet and artist, death meant
more to him than to an ordinary crimi-
nal. He fought for self-contrOl with
q mental courage that is more heroic
than any physical courage. Badly
scared, he tried to seem undaunted.
But 1t was his fate to undergo an ex-
traordinary ordeal that would break
down any courage. The. guillotine
wouldn't work. Time and again the
Ak descended to within an inch or two
of his neck and then stuck, and the
.executioner fumbled with it, raised 1t,
and let it fall again. The tortured
man twisted himself around so that he
could look upward, and uttered an
awful, agonized shrek that was never
forgotten by those who heard it.
But the shrek was cut in two. The
ak worked at last.

known better than to eat oranges be-
fore committing a crime. Or, If he
couldn't get along without oranges he
should have realized that it was bad
to drop the peel on the floor of BUSH
ness mans Office.
At the appointed hour the bank
messenger arrived at the office with
his little bag fairly bullying with
money, and securities. Lacenaire, the
smiling, the fascinating, asked him to
seat himself at the table and examine
certain papers. The messenger did so,
and while the poet engaged him In
conversation, and held his whole atten-
ton, Francois came up behind, dag
ger in hand, to stab him to the heart.
Francois, who had studied murder un-
der the old masters, knew how to
reach the heart from any angle or po-
sition. This looked like an easy and
sure Job! But, maledictions on the
orange peel! His foot slipped just as
he delivered the blow. The messenger
was stabbed, but not mortally, or even
seriously. With yell of terror he
leaped for the door and reached 1t
first, and ran down the stairs yelling
murder. Francois also sped away,
and Lacenaire followed close ut the
messengers heels, also yelling murder,
thus diverting suspicion until ne
reached the street and was lost in the
crowd.
He felt that Paris was no place for
him Just then, so he departed for the
provinces, where for long time he
lived opulently. He wrote much poetry
at this time. and it was good poetry,
which sold readily; but he was too
wise to depend upon the muse for
living, so, when not embalming things
in song he devoted his genius to for
gerry, and with great success. When
he returned to Paris he was attired In
purple and fine linen, and was credit
to the boulevards.
Meanwhile Francois had been ar
rested on some trifling charge, and
Avril still was in Jail. The crimes In
which they had been concerned were
complete mysteries to the police, and
it seemed that they would always re-
main so, when Francois dropped few
words which made the police suspi-
cious, and they drew from him the story
of the attack upon the bank messen-
ger. Avril's conscience became active
about the same time, and he told OF
the Chardon murders. So it came to
pass that the poet was arrested, and
when he learned that the discovery
was due to his accomplices, he made
full confession, his only object, he said,
being to take the betrayers to the
guillOtfne with him.
The trial was a famous one. The
most celebrated people Of France
crowded to the courtroom to see the

BACON AND SAUSAGE

Thin people are apt to lose weight
in summer because tl-ey eat unwisely.
while those already too stout are prone
to increase for the same reason. es-
pecially If they take no exercise. A
body under weight should be particu-
larly careful not to decrease the foods
easily converted into fat and energy.
The usual custom Of reducing meat
in the hot weather dietary is wise I'M
less this means too marked increase
in the starchy foods, such as potatoes,
corn, rice, breal, etc. The carbohy-
drates are more difficult Of digestion
and assimilation than the proteid of
meat which is quickly turned into en-
ergy, and an excess of them in warm
weather will often disturb the diges-
tive system, or cause an undue flesh
accumulation.
Workers, and most people are work.
ers in the warm months as we'll as in
the cold, need energy producing foods.
During the summer they should choose
food that provides energy in concen-
trated, easily digested form. and rely
on salads and fruit for bulk as we'll as
for the useful salts they contain
Among the concentrated foods partic-
ularly atiaptible to summer needs are
bacon and, dry, or summer sausage.

er on q trifle of business-the mere
signing of paper"
1--WE are greatly honored, M. Lace
naire," replied Chardon. Mother, as
you know, is an invalid, and is in her
bed, but she can do what you ask"
They stood face to face, Chardon
and Lacenaire, and the latter gossiped
gayly of one thing and another, while
Avril stole quietly behind Chardon,
and, having stationed himself prop
erly, at wink from the poet he threw
his arm around Chardon's neck and
garroted him. Lacenaire drew dag
ger then, and stabbed the victim sew
cral times, to make the job complete,
then he went to the room of the in
valid mother and slew her with the
weapon that killed the son.
"There should be 10000 francs here
somewhere. according to my informa-
tion," said Lacenaire. "Lock the door,
my friend, and we'll search till we find
the money"
Avril locked the door, and they
searched and searched, but all they
found was 500 francs. Lacenaire,
whose sense of humor was abnormally
developed, laughed until the tears
rolled down his cheeks. 1t was this
insensibility, displayed on many tragic
and narrowing occasions, that made
him one of the most famous criminals
of modern times.
els the joke on us or on the Char
dons?" he asked, as he wiped the joy
GUS tears from his face. He wanted
to get away. Those dead people were
getting on his nerves. So they left
the house, and went to an inn, where,
over sundry bottles Of cheap wine,
Lacenaire planned a larger and better
crime.
He rented an Office and painted an
assumed name on the door, thus Gre
ating the impression that he was a
business man. Then, by laying his
plans carefully, he arranged that a
bank messenger should call upon him
in his office on a certain day, the cho-
sen day being one on which collections
were sure to be large. 1t took a great
deal of skillful maneuvering to bring
this about, but the details are not es-
sential to this story.
Everything being in readiness, Avril
was so foolish as to be arrested, while
trying to rescue lady friend from the
police. So, ut the eleventh hour, Lace
naire had to so forth and seek another
assistant. Reliable help Of that kind
is hard to find when most needed. but
after much trouble the poet accepted
as his partner gentleman named
Francois. to whom homicide was fad.
II WAS said of him, in his own haunts,
that he would kill man for q sou,
which was cheap enough, to be sure.
Francois, however, should have

HER MILkINe-PAlL

When Doris took her milking-pail
To cross the dewy meadow;
The eastern sky was golden pale.
The valley lay in shadow;
1 followed slowly. not too near,
And softly, lest the maid should hear.
The wet, white daisies bent to touch
Her slender foot, and kiss It;
I envied them this pleasure much.
Since I'd been doomed to miss It:
And thought the flowers were treated
far
More kindly than some lovers are!
Behind a thorn stood to watch
Her coax the COW, and chide her.
And humming at merry catch,
Set the small stool beside her;
While freshly, as she could nave
wished,
The milk through dimpled fingers
swished.
Thought I, This chance I must not
miss!
Her millz-pail home I'll carry;
And in return. demand kiss,
For milkmaids are not chary;
The poets sing: If SWANS be brave.
Hence, my reward I'll boldly crave.
But when at length l would have slept
Toward the maid with fervor,
Young Stephen DER the hedge had
leapt
With like intent to serve her;
And lest his chance might later fail,
Took, first, kiss, and then, the pail!
Unseen, I sought shaded path.
And left the lovers cooling;
But now my verse moral hath:
Whatevers worth the doing
You'll find-each day the story tells
Is being done by some one else!
