PARIS, June 2o.-(Cable Letter.)-The
American library in Paris, with 10000 vol
umes on. its shelves and its tables COW
cred with American magazines and news
papers, draws SO per cent Of its reading
room attendance from French people. It
is rapidly becoming the chief connecting
link between the literary interests OF
France and the United States and during
the two years of its existence in has
greatly stimulated French interest in
things American.
In QUARTER Latin.
At the beginning Of 1922 the library
funds amounted to $4,000 francs, and it
Is Intended to spend much Of this in en-
larging existing facilities. A branch in
the Latin quarter is planned, and others
are contemplated.
The library is used by French minis
ters and many of the best known French
literary, scientific and professional men.
1t receives dozens Of requests a week for
information about America. Recently a
French architect asked for all available
information about skyscrapers, and sew

Hot Desert Sun
The trip in IS entirety, however,
was not all pleasure and comfort, said
the local delegate. Riding across the
great American desert, a distance OF
285 miles, with Old Sol bearing down
at the rate OF from 80 to 102 degrees,
was a bit fitting to q man from the
land of Sunshine and Flowers, said
Mr.. Semmes. And another thing that
made it all the more distressing, he
said, was that this disagreeable fea-
ture of the 5aunt happened to fall on
Sunday and it had been mutually
agreed beforehand that no hands
were to be dealt" on the Sabbath. So
the famous fighters Of weekly lunch
cons and disseminators Of civic pep
and progressiveness had to stick it
out.
Snow Capped Mountains
There was only one thing that kept
us from wishing we were dead, said
the local Rote, land that was the
snow capped mountains that we could
see in the distance. We knew that
somewhere over that way there was
vegetation, water, cool and sparkling,
like that which flowed in the creeks

of the rare treats OF the trip, declared
Mr.. Semmes, ''but the most vitality In

Here we visited the world-famous Old

the most unique hostelries in the en-

What madse's Thoughts Convinced Her

Curiosity is not one Of my besetting
sins, but must confess that as I walked
home from Mrs. Durkees there was but
one thought In my mind, and that an
overwhelming desire TO catch a glimpse
Of the men who had thrown so much
mystery about their renting OF her house
For her description OF the man she had
seen tailed exactly with the appearance
Of the foreigner, real or pretended. whom
had seen in a taxi next to mine during
a blockade Of Fifth Avenue, and in whose
eyes, hauntingly familiar, was sure 7

ton.
Mrs. Durkee had said that the man
had told her he had with him his uncle,

swathed, huddled figure had seen in
the taxi. the figure which had raised
itself evidently to look at me, and had
been pushed back with every evidence
Of quick dismay upon the part Of the
first man.
It was preposterous thing OF course,
that anyone who knew me should be
coming to the house next mine. But

world that might happen to me.
There might be a very real menace
also in the presence OF these mysterious
men IN the house next door to me. Hid

my room was the important paper which
my father had sent to Allen Drake
