The French object to his being sent to Berlin merely to convey to his friend M. Hoibetle , the grand cordon of the Legion of Honor. To send this "giand old man" of Franco on such an PI rand 1' , as it rf were , sending an elephant to kill a fly. I v Nevertheless , M. Flourens the minister for foreign affairs , as well as all the French officers , with a solemnity sngcestlvo of Edgar Poe's "Haven , " declare that It Is "only this and nothing more. " 1 met M. DeLesseps tlio other evening at a soiree given by the Countess Kessler , where ho seemed to keenly relish the charms of four dell clously pretty women in Louis Fiel/ costume as they danced the famous pavane with all It-s graceful and stately iryiations. Although still "evergreen , " M. DeLesseps has aged perceptibly since his return from America. His eyes have lost pait of their pristine lire , his legs towaid midnight be come a trifle shaky , but he steps about with hisunparalleled vivacity and Is as active [ and energetic as ever. Every afternoon hoildes \ through the bridle paths ot the bols do Bou logne on his dark blown hunter nt a brisk trot , preceded by his eight little children iral loplnc along pell mell on their ponies like a swnrin of Cossacks. I asked M. DeLesscps whether | the reports were Into about his being interrupted with an important Dll'I.OVIATIO MISSION TO I1KRMN. Ho said : ' 'No ; I would bo very glad It you would emphatically denv that I have any other object in going to Bnilln than to con voy the insignia of tlio grand cordon of the Legion of Honor to my filond M. Herbetle. ' " M. DuLosseps then quickly changed the conveisation to Panama , and expressed the utmost confidence as to Its successful com plotlon. The fact Is that It Is Hi inly believed in Franco that war between Ihissla and Aus tria caiin.it bo much longer averted in any event. Cool-headed men believe the spark has already been struck In Bulgaria. All the diplomatic efforts of both Franco and Germany are i directed towaid localizing this coming Aus- traaud Krussian war. If Germany should bo drawn into tins war public opinion In France , which Is now distinctly peaceful , would beconin warlike- and tlio French army would appear In Alsace-Loiralno with the swiftness of the fall o an avalanche. Con spquontly It Is ot vital importance to ascer tain under what condition Germany woulil bo able to keep herself aloof from the Aus tro-lhtsslan campaign. Upon this point It Is thought M. DeLesscps , although Intrustec with no special mission , will have u lull am frank conversation with Prince Bismarck. It Is believed In Gaul circles here tha Germany will rcmain.nnutral In the event not probable according to military authority of Austila defeating llussla ; but If Hus defeats Austria and pushes her victories nt to the walls of Vienna , that public opinion in Germany would compel her to draw the sword In defense of the Goinun population of Austria-Hungary. M. DeLesscps thoroughly personifies France , he Is untram melled by any otllcial position , and a frank conversation between the " ( Siami Fiancais" and Prince Bismarck would bo good for both Franco and Germany. CHIMK IN HAD WiATHKIl. : Paris weather since the earthquake has been extraordinary. Evoiy morning wo have had a thick tog till about half past 10 , then the sun comes out , and the day becomes bright , diy , clear and cold until half past 7 In the evening , when down comes the fog again , saturating everything with dampness. During the past week wo have had the usual pabulum of murders , robberies and suicides varied with the teirl- blo explosion of fire-damp at 'Saint Etlonno , nnd above all the scandalous divorce trial of the Comto ami Comtess E. doMolen , to which 1 can only barely allude , as It was redolent with details to which the pages of "Made inolsello Gerand , ma femmo" are llko milk and water. M. Mace , formerly chief of thn police de tectives ot Paris , has published a remaikable book called "Un Jell Monde , " In which ho describes In a styhi worthy of Eugene Sue or y Gaborhin , the vices of modern society. M. Mace takes us to the Chalen inngc , to tlio Peisunette and to the Cararot In thoiuodo Cotte and reveals In nil their naked hoiror the scenes of debauchery and crime of the noclanbules njctallpies , of the dregs of the criminal classes of Paris. M. Mace de votes a lomr chapter to pickpockets. The police report i show that the average number of people of Pails who have their pocketbooks - books or watches stolen Is over 500 a day. There are regularly established schools for learning the trade of pickpockets , nnd someot M. Mace's descriptions of youthful criminals recall the experiences ot Oliver Twist. "Un Jell Monde" reveals all the tricks nnd devices of Parslan pick pockets and confidence game men , on the principle that forewarned Is forearmed , Americans coming abioad this spring will do i to road M. Mace's book. TUB I.Air.ST FASHIONS. March sunshine has given a new Impetus to the fancies of the Parisian modistes , and I a coming revolution In ladies' ht-ml covering is Impending. The high hat Is decidedly doomed and toques are making their uppe.u- anco in nil kinds of pretty fancy straws , tilmmed with velvet and with faille ribbon , with a wing placed ot one side or else two quill feathers. The copatc bonnet , with the Eldo coveted with laigo leaves Instead of birds' wln s , is one of the latest noveltlcd. A pretty innovation Is the borderIng - Ing of the bonnet biim with email ilowor ? , such as primroses , violets orery small rosebuds. Tortoise shell pins ate good deal employed on black lace bniiueu. Colored straws are exclusively shown tot ih present and are very atylish trimmed with falllu ribbon ot paler shade than the boo pet lUeJf , such as ophella lilac or dark purple Straw , polo , blue on marine blue , nd pink on wine colored straw. \ few hlzh crowned Tyrcolcan hats hat arc still shown have a trimming In some ascs passing over the ciown In flat bias folds of velvet , with a large llower caughthero and here among the folds. This stjlo ot trim- ulng Is very picturesque , but has to bo care- ully managed in order to prevent n top- icavy appeaiance. The newest colois of tlio enson are a delicate shade of old pink , or Ij Ing rose , as It Is poetically called , and a silver shade of gieen known as serpent green. Two elegant dresses worn by hostesses nt wo recent icccphons were madoa < < follows : Onuwas in crushed raspberry velvet , made with a long train and plain , full sklit , the beauty and richness ot the material requiting 10 elaboration in making or tilimning. The jointed corsagu was hUh to tlio skirt and was shaded by a lichu in c\- julslto old point do leucon. The other toilet was worn by a young named lady. Thecorsaso was In ollvogrccn md brocaded with roses in their natural lines , and bordered with a fringe In dark 'rccn jet. The skirt was composed ot pekln , inveiywide stripes of olive faille , and net looped over ami under skirt of olive faille. A costume all In silver piay velvet , even to the bonnet , muff and jacket , was vvoin by a young lady visitor. It must be admitted , in fart , that some of the most elfectlvo if these afternoon diesses have been in plain and rich velvet , very simply made , and with scaicely any tilniming , the beauty of the material and the lieifcction of the lit of the diess forming the lilgliest types of elegance. An original cos tume to bo worn by a well Known military man In Paris at a fancy dress ball is called Imagod'Eplnal , It consists of white satin breeches and a coat upon which are piinted In colors and In small squaio blocks fairy tales of all kinds. Eplnal In the Vosecs is famous for Its children's picture books. Sheets of fairy tales are sold tlicio to the mul titude for tlio modest pi Ice of 1 cent each. llo Will no Hoyally Ilecrivcd , [ fopi/rfu/it / JW > 7liv Jai/irji GoicJim Jicmieft.l Biiuix : , March 5. [ Now Yoik Heiald Cable Special to tlio Bin : . ] Considerable amuacment has been caused hero by the ef forts of International gossips to give a diplo matic meaning to M. DeLesscps' visit next week. There Is , however , a marked disposi tion In cotut and political circles to make the visit an occasion for a notable display of fileudshlp towaid the Fiench people as now airanged. M. DeLesseps will have a special reception on Wednesday at the palace. The usual Thursday night palace icceptlon has been postponed , Thursday being a family annlveisary. Pieparatlons are now being made for the reception of M. Do Lessens on Thursday at the Ethnolodcal museum by various learned societies ot sclentiltc men. On Fiiday and Saturday thciowillbe piob ably state dinners In his honor at the Imperial palace and the Fiencli embassy. Thiougliout this stay M. De Les eps will bo treated almost as a royal visitor , so eager is Berlin to show Its good will towards Franco. It Is rumored tclat this German tiip was nirangod In order to create a better feelIng - Ing between Germany and France. Through thocoidlal manner In which M. DoLesseps will bo received lie will thus peihaps act as a peacemaker , but that ho Is chaigcd with any special mission regarding Egypt is regaided as ridiculous. It is announced that the em peror will confer some decoration on the "grand Francais' ' during his stay. I'ucuLiiAii CUIMIH. Three Unusual Incidents Noted From Ijoniton. [ Coputlolit JSS7 LV Jnm' Gitilm Rennett.l LONDON , March 5. [ Now Vork Herald Cable Special to the Bii.J : : Tlueo Interest Ing criminal Incidents occurred hoio to-day. In the court reserved for ciown cases , com posed of all tlio judges , a decision was given in a peculiar case of larceny. The prisoner had made common metal discs which ho dropped Into an automatic clgaiotto pillar at a railway station Instead of the nccessaiy penny , nnd thereby obtained his smoking cheaply. This , at the tiial , wa held to bo larceny , and the decision was up held bv the full court. The defense was that there was no felonious intentions , but that the act was committed as a joke. Tito chief justice said the Ictrnl ellcct was the same as If a false key had been used and the conserva tion of the property established n bad intent. I'UCULIAU IIIOAMV DECISION. An hour later In the conhal ciiminal court , a man was convicted of bigamy although ho believed his lirst wife dead when ho marrlcr his second wlfo. The news of his lirst wile's death was , however , piomature. She had ial- lied from a decided death stuigglo long enough to remain allvo until two hours after the bigamous ceremony. The prisoner's mailtal haste cost him four months with liaid labor. DAUINO HIGHWAY llOIllinUV.

They tike It and escape , she retaining the valuable box. She pursues thorn two blocks , lalslng a hue and cry , although hurt and fatigued. Not a policeman was to bo seen. All of which gives point to tlio recent criticism by the English press of the Inelllclency of the Lon don police In comparison with the statement as to the Now York police In the opening ar ticle ot the March Harper , which the press eulogl/es.

They weie completely ovei- come vvitli cricf at his condition , lie has always been in such good health and was apparently so halo for his ago that they could hatdly icali/.o that ho was lying there In such n helpless condition. His attack came on so gradually that his wlfo and son weie unable to icallio the full extent ot his Illness. Between 2 and 3 o'clock > estprday moinlng Beecher awoke. He complained of being sick. Ills wlfo arose to get something foi him to drink. Ho began to vomit freely and then lay back upon his pillow , apparently exhausted , lu a shoit tlmo he fell asleep. Mrs. Beecher concluded that lip would feel better In a feAhours. . The lirst breakfast bell rung but did not awaken him , The second bell also passed unheeded. Mis. Buccher had been up for some tlmo and lid not wish to dl&tinb him. Becoming Manned she made an attempt to arouse Him. uit could not do so. She called her son and laughtei-In-Iaw. They tried to louse him. le tiled to speak , but Ills voice was thick ind articulation Indistinct. Dr. W. S. Searlp , the family physician , was called n. Ho pronounced Beecher quite ill nit did not apprehend Immediate danger. During the day Beecher seemed to impiove. and hones were enteitalncd that ho would rally. Medicinn vvasvlven and every chance was noted. This morning ho appeared to bo worse , and it was decided to call Dr. W. A. Hammond , of Now Vork , on consultation with Dr. Searle. Befoio noon Beecher apsed into unconsciousness , and was in that condition w lieu Dr. Hammond reached the louse. Dr. Hammond pronounced him n a ct ideal condition. He thought that as the patient was natuially i stiong man lie might rally. Ho assured the 'amily that there was some hope. Ho lett shot tfy after 3 o'clock ; Colonel Beecher said : o-nlght that his father did not seem to suf fer any pain , and when aroused seemed to recognise him and Mrs , Beecher. His artic ulation was too Indistinct to bo understood. Dr. Hammond was called In as nil expert In Jialn troubles. The family , Colonel Beecher said , at first thoimht the attack was bllloiu- ness. It was decided to Issue hourly bulle tins to inform anxluiis friends of Beeceer's condition. ' i , At b-f : > to-night Or. Searlo said that the condition ot Beecher was unchanged , but ho was liable to die nt any moment. At 10 o'clock p. in. Beecher Is not expected to die bcfoia morning. At 11 o'clock to-night Beecher was slightly better and appealed to be less drowsy. Itev. Dr , Talunuo and all the prominent mem bers of iJcecher'b chinch called at the home. Beechei , pointing to his lipad , indicated that lie was sulleiinulhete most. Dr. Searle said that no more bulletins would bo issued to night unless Beecher was found to bo dying , lie did not think there would be any change before morning. At 11 o'clock the house was closed. To-morrow's World will have the follow- inir : The chances ot Beecher's rccoveiy aio stated by Dr. William T. Seaile. his family nh ) slcia'n. in the following wotds : "Ho may live a day , he may live a week , and there is a bare possibility that lie may survive tlio shock , but his titll mental and bodily facul ties can nevei bo restored. " Beecher's Illness was altogether unexpected. Ho was in his usual good health up to last Thursday evening. HP ate that night a supper con sisting of halt a dorcn least clams and spent the evening plavltig backgammon vvitli Mrs. Beecher. Ho retired carlj and did not com plain of feeling unwell. Ho , however , ap peared restless atter Ivlmr down , so much so that he attracted the attention ot his wife. Ho told her ho had been suttei ing with a severe headache , an allllction to which helsacom- paiativestianger. lie vomited piolusely and said that lie felt a little better. Shoitly aftei ho fell asleep and slept without a break un til aJO : ! o'clock Friday afternoon. He was not distuibed duiing this time , as It lias been Ills habit tor years to sleep In that man ner when out of sorts. Ho was accustomed to say that sleep was ono of ills grandest remedies. Dr. Hutchinson was called by Mis. Boecher. The doctor said to a reporter , " 1 reached the house at y:30o'clock : vosterday attornoon and touud Btechar sleeplmr. His appearance was quite natmal , although 1 thoiurht his face was dtawn somewhat to the ilSht side. Tlio skin , especially of his extrem ities , was cool , but not cold. I easily aroused Mr. Beecherand ho was perfectly conscious. 1 said to him : 'You've Jsiept so long that vour wtto became won led nnd sent forme. ' 'Yes , ' he responded , ' 1 have slept a good while. I have been dreaming. It was rather a pleas ant sort of dreim , too. You know lhavo been dreamer. ' 'And always a gieat what was jour dream ? ' I asKed. ' 1 thought,1 was the reply , 'that 1 had been made a duke and my vvtlo a duchess. I dreamed we had a laigo amount of piopcrty Invested in British consols , and I've been trying all night to figure out the Income. You know , doctor , that niithmetic lus nl- wajs been a great souice ot trouble to me. ' ' 1 took my patient's pulse. It was about eighty , and 1 thought was too lull and too haul. He was lying on his back , and lie moved all his limbs with appirent freedom. Ills symptoms were much the same as ho lias been accustomed to in attacks of Indiges tion and blllloustipss , and both myself and family concluded that nothing moio serious was threatened. 1 prescribed appioprlate remedies and left , not having been in tlio house more than half an hour. 1 called againhow cver.at lOo'docktho same oven ing. At that time 1 found tils pulse muc'i ' better. It was softer and somewhat reduced In frequency. I observed , however , that Beecher's articulation was thick. He seemed drowsy , but answered questions readily. He seen.cd , on the whole , better in the after noon. 1 was , however , apprehensive that his condition was more serious than It ap peared on the surface and when I left It was with the injunction that I bo called at once If there was any change In the patients condition. Mr. Beecher's son William staid at the bcdsldn with his mother till midnight and then retired. Beecher was on the alert all night long. The family did not sso fit to call me till 8 o'clock this morning , and the moment I ar rived 1 saw that there had been a decided I change for the worse. There was partial I paralysis of the entire loft side , It being the most marked in thn arm and hand. The giasp ot the right hand I was as vigorous as ever , but that of the lett was almost t IniDCiceptlble. The left lez w as not as much paraly/ed as the arm and the sensation both of the arm and the leg appeared perfect 'Can you move your left arm" I asked Btcclter. 'Oh , yes , < he replied , 'I can. 1 touched my head with my hand. ' llo tried 1t 1 to do .so and found that ho could not and it seemed to annoy him. All this tlmo ho was exceedingly drowsy. When asked a ques 1- tion he would reply , nnd then drop Into a drowsy state. Ho was not In a comatose condition I by any means. Ills pupils vvwe contracted I , but they responded well to tin : light. When asked to put out bis tomjne it was only par tially produced.mid that with evident dif ficulty , ill * temperature ; was then 'M ile- ( r itbo half degree bo e noimal.

Ills goncial action was llko that of a inin p.-u- tlally aroused from a deep Clumber. Ho said his side still pained him ; that there was a "boring" pain In the right of his head and his biatn was soio. frequently hu earned his right hand involuntarily to his head as If It pained him , 1 pronounced his case one of apoplexy and sent lorl'rot W. A. Hammond , of New Yoik. I took Mrs. Beecher and William aside and told them how serious the ca * < e was. They were lueiedulous at Hist , and thought It impossible , as thesMiuitoms were so much llko what they had been nc- customed to In times past. Mrs. Boecher was overcome with giief when she fully reall/ed the trutn , but boto up bravely when encour aged by her son. Dr. Hammond BI rived at 3 o'clock , It was then evident that Beecher was falling.
