Iho great department stoics in I'atls , sue
as the Bon Maiche , the Louvre , and th
Prlntcmps , carry the organization of thel
employes to a point not dreamed of here
says the Now York Sun , and Iitvo In opcia
tlon extensive and costly plans for stimulat
Ing the Interest and energy of the help In
the huslnnia to the hlghe.it degree. The ne\
emplojo receive. } at the start a salary oleo
lee francea , or about ISO a year , beside\
being lodged and fed , nnd in addition a com
mission of from 2 to 5 per cent upon hi
sales , so that the lowest salesman rarelj
makco less than $1GO a year. A head o
department , or bujer , as he Is Known hero
may easily mnka from $2,500 to $3000 n
jcar , and sonic of them exceed $5,000
While these figures are low compared vvltl
thu $10,000 and $20,000 salaries paid in New
York , they seem high when measured by th
scale of salaries that prevails In France
Thus the best paid among the higher em
plo > cs receive larger salaries than the presl
dents of sections In the Council of State ant
generals ot division. The average pay o
an cxperlen"ed salesman Is about 4,00
francs , or $ SOO a year.
The total number of employes at the Bon
Maicho and the Lorn re Is about 3,000 each
among whom mo only about 400 women. Ii
the Bon Mnrche and the Louvre lodging In
the buildings provided by the eslabllshmcn
Is optional for employes of both seics less
than 21 jcars old ; in the Prlntemps It Is
obligatory. The Louvre has on the Avenue
Ilappn.gr [ at building accommodating 230
male omuloycs , and not far from It another
where 100 joung girls ara lodged. The Boi
Marche furnishes similar accommodations
All these establishments are conducted under
BFfit.larl1' stringent rules. The girls have a
parlor where entertainments are organlzet
on buudajs and certain evenings of the week
but from which the other sex. is cxcludei
utterlj- . Not even a father or a brother maybe
bo received there.
All the employes receive their meals in
the stores except the highest , and these
are permitted to cat outside and receive an
allowance of SOO francs a jear In the waj
of commutation of rations. Furthermore
married cmnloj-es are allowed to dine n
home , and receive a commutation of 1
franc a day. The average coat of food is
from 32 to 10 cents a day for each employe
The fare consists , nt the Louvre , of one
helping of meat , all the vegetables am
bread that can be eaten , dessert , and n
pint of claret. For dinner soup is added
At the Bon Marchu the employes rnaj' ack
for two helpings of meat. The average
daily quantity of food consumed In one o >
these establishments includes 2,500 quartr
of soup , 3,000 pounds of biead , 2,500 pounds
of meat , l(200 ( pounds of flbh , 500 pounds of
butter' nnd ten barrels of wine. At the
Louvre the kitchen force Includes fifteen
cooks and eighty waiters. The cost of the
food c < xcecds 2,000000 francs a jear.
The great stores have a medical service
for their emplojes , which Includes an In
firmary nnd outings in the country or at the
seashore. In addition , when a man or a
woman completes seven years of service al
the Louvie , a sum of 1,000 francs Is cred
ited to him In the pension fund , and after
ward 200 francs a year up to his fiftieth
jcar of service. The savings fund of the
non Marcho amounts now to 2,000,000 francs
and 200,000 francs Is added annually , and
in addition there Is a pension fund founded
liy Mmc. Bouclcault , who built up this 1m.

jcar ending Juno 30 , 18&4 , was relatively lesn
than for any previous jcar since the organi
sation of the commission , the per cent of

decline In railway construction. l''rom cur-
lent Indlcatloiib , however. It mny bo ex
pected that the year ending Juno 30 , 1S9G ,
vill show greater activity in the extension
of railway facilities.
Such Increase in lallvay mileage as hn
taken place does not seem to have bcoi
localized , but , on the coutrarv to have bean
fairly well distributed. Arizona leads ll
railway construction , with a new mileage o
2i7.lt miles ; Illinois shows an liu'icasc o

An impoitant element In the organization

Is found in the extent to which rail .v ay man

"Yes , " said the lady burglar , addressing

dainty gold-tipped Jimmy through her back

"It was something of nil lnno\allon. I con

vvn i no misstep. I took up burglary de
liberately , and , If I may say It , with malice
aforethought. All the lesltlmate profca

member entering a Gentleman's house by
way of the second-story window ho was n
rm&onal friend of mine. Oh , no , I never
let such trifles stand In the waj of business ;
In fact , If I am not much mistaken , he wat
an old sweetheart or something on that or-
ocr. Well , I was Razing In the glnas to sea
If my Imt w q on straight piepnratory to
going thfouqh his jeans and whatever other
articles of furnitures he had , when ho awoke
with n violent 10 , 20 and 30 per cent popu
lar price stnrt 'My Gawd , Mag , Is It you ? '
ho ejaculated In a low sad voice , 'what arc
you doing hero at such an hour. Think ot
what the nclghbois will say1 ! 'I am heio
to tob , ' 1 replied In a hard-boiled tlaibaiy
coast voice. Ho doomed surprised , but con
tained himself with rcmarkablo self p s-
sesslon 'If jou will promlbo to gn homo
and shed those bloomers forever jou can
htuo anything I have got , ' nd ho gave mo
the key to his wlfo'a bureau drawer on the
spot Yea. 1 liavo found that , na a rule ,
men are gallant. I always make It a point
to disturb them as little an possible , but
whenever I do arouse them they tccelve mo
In a courteous and kindly manner. I recall
an instance ) of my caily Uaja when I vv.ta
llttlo better limn a second-story novice. I
had enteted a bachelor's apaitmunt , and
was hastily separating the wheat from his
unpaid bills , when be unexpectedly opened
his eyea and gazed long and earnestly at
mo.
" 'Do you find anything that strikes your
fancy ? ' ho asked , in a gentlemanly way.
" 'Nothing , ' I replied , 'tint will enable mete
to Ilvo In east- and luxury. '
" 'Wellho answered , 'In that lower "V
drawer you will find a pair of pink silk pa i'
jamas If jou will bo so good as to take
them I think you can xise them when jour
bloomers have gone into dry dock. '
"Oh , no , I was not offended. Wo lady
burglais ha\o to put up with a great deal
of rlstjuo remarks , and besides the paja
mas , 1 found , made excellent shlit walsto
for the seaside. Would I recommend other
young women to follow In my footsteps ?
No , not unless they were willing to put up
with all manner of unconventional things.
Sometimes I almost envy Illlllo Kly , D.uy
Dare Devil and those other ladles who
hang by their toes 'from olghtopn-atoiy
buildings at $7 a column It la a great deal
more genteel than to go through a pair of
gentleman's trousers with the honid dread
lu jour heart that his wife- has already
been through them. "

nvcry one Is aware that the word "Yan

Ml citizens of the United States , but it is
ti'jpd generally as a "nickname" and not
ahvajs In a complimentary spirit. Our
Spanish friends jiu > tnt present arc doubtless
Inclined to employ It In a sneering and
derogatory sense , says the New York Mall
and Express , but , however It may bo use' ' ]
by them or othei Kuiojioans , It has long
ilnce ceased to carry with it the slightest
sting of latent satlto. From a term of re-
? ioach or ildlcule , It ban become to a citl-
/on of the United States a verbal badijtj
of honor , and is now synonymous the world
over with shrewdness , entoipriso , pluck and
achievement.
Its origin Is uncettiiln , According to ono
Buthotlty "yankces" Is a variation of "yen-
cees , " or "yensecs , " or "yaunghhceV "a
name said to how been given by the Mrwa-
chusottH Indians to the nnpllsh colonists ,

of the word English or ot the French An
