'Ho wns awakened bv his wife who shook him oxclalmlnc : "Wako upvnkoup , the house Is ou Orel" Ho snrnug oul ot bed nnd heard nn ominous roaring outside the door. Ho rushed into Iho hallway of the third floor , where bis room was located , nnd found the- elevator ihaft nt the end of the hall a roirlng Hue of leaping , crackling flames. The stairwavs wore free then , nnd rushing back ho hur riedly throw on his trousers and waistcoat over his nightshirt , thrust his feet into an old pair of shoes and calling-to nls wlfo , who had hurriedly donned a wrapper 10 follow , ho again left the room it.tending to go down the stairway.

Stopping not to count the cost , Mr. Mearos wrapped his coat closely about him , swung over the blistering bannisters nnd dropped to the floor below , whence ho groped his way lo the ofllco floor und out upou the street. Then , In his Imlf-diued condition , ho realized that his wife was still in the room. Ho rushed frantically no and down the street.

Of a sudden the air was filled with shouts and cries ot distress. The inmates of thu great hostelry had awakened to a scnso of their danger. Heads appeared at every window quickly followed by puffs of smoiio Bud tongues of ( lames. Amid iho babel of voices Mr. Moars de tected a familiar cry. Ho appealed to the foreman of Iho ladder truck and in an instant Hithlrty-foot ludder rested upon u window led e. I'ushldg nsldo the llromon the land lord scaled the ladder himself , llu found ho bad mistaken tbo window , but ho saved a lifo , for bo took down a halt scnsuloss , white robed tig tire and then turned the ladder twice over till it stood beneath his wife's window. This time n slender young man , n stranger , was too quick for him , beating him to the window by half the lenptn ot the ladder am ) Mr. Wears had barely reached thn coping of the front entrance when the self.constituted lifo laver had his wife in his arms ana was mak ing his wav painfully to the ground. Half way down either the young man missed his footing or his strength gava out for ho propped his burden which foil to the pave ment and lay motionless , whllo firemen lifted the unfortunate woman and bore her across the ottcet. llrutiil I'ollromon. Half crazed , the husband says hu does not know whether ho fell or whether ho Dlnmborod down the ladder , Bui ho started to find his wlfu wiiou n big policeman , whoso name ho says ho would glvo a considerable nun toliscorlaiu , stopped him and demanded to know his business.

At least four great European powers are concerned In the acquisition of all northern Africa. For yenrs Italy has baa her Itching tlngars in the nffalrs of Tripoli , whoso trade with the African equatorial kingdoms is enormous. Franco from nor now aud matchless empire of Algeria , Is pushing bur railways across the eastern boundaries of Morocco , nnd bill n few weeks slnca toolt forcible possession of the rich oases of Tuat , This point , nbout 700 miles a Jrlllo south west of Algiers and n triilo southeast ot Tangier , is in the central north ern portion of the Sahara.

In any event the four powers named are eagerly alert for the possibilities 111 all new moves In northern Africa ; nnd Morocco , , the last remaining empire of barbarism o.t an cient Mauritania , is doomed. The glitter und clink of. 100,000 chasscpot'l'flles girdle it on the east and south , l/poii-mouthed can non complete the circle on the north and west. Strangely enough civilization often confronts barbarism in this way. There is not at this moment n break in its circling im pact. The ir.ovilable and resistless uressuro may come before those words can Und their place in print. It may not como before the century is uontv But It is no Ipss inevitable. Tumi Morocco will bo transformed , like. Algiers , into a paradise of health and plenty , and beyond it , oven to the wild Soudan , the oases of thu waterless wastes of Sahara shall bloom aim blossom In all the glorious luxurl- nnd of n glowing Cuban vallo. Until then , from any standpointthis weird old city must remain u place of the I'arcst In terest. No one can tell its a ire. The sieges , pillages nud pestilences it has" withstood are heartrending. It is the most Moorish ofull Moorish cities.

Nobody is troubling his head here at this moment nbout politic ! . Everyone is thinking of the Increased cost of living resulting from the new duties. The theatrical lliiancial crlsU , the lllnois of M. Uouvlcr , minister of llnauc i , events in Ger many where even tbo government is forced lo admit Iho progress of soclallun and whcro thu revelations lately made regarding the brutality of the German noncommissioned olllcers have produced a tremendous wnvo of popular indignation all those things are foregone In the hubbub stlriou up by the tariff changes , The Paris tradespeople nro taking ad vantage of the increased duty on Imports and hnvo fairly dUlracUU their customers bv their exactions. For instance , the cafotlors have added a sou to the prleo of every becker or glass containing nno-olglith of n lllro of boor they sell. Mgm of I hit Times. In the humbler restaurants you may road announcements like iho following : "No In crease In the future ; our beef steaks will weigh only thirty grain i instead of thirty- live. " Yet the changes In thu tariff have hardly affected the real price of moat at tb'.s ' place. If you go loa tailor's ou the boulovarJ , you will scii this sort of notice : "Owing to the rise In the prlco of cloth , B' ) ccuttintH will bo added to the usual prices of our trousers. " Of course , on Inquiry , you will llndthnl thu tailors uro still using native cloth. So far the Pnrlsans have shown much good humor , however , lu the face of this extortion. But it would not bo strange if ihoy changed their tune soon. The wluii merchants bin zcnly announce lhat Spanish wines which were ouco sold for " francs . " > U centimes will henceforth cost 7 francs , )0 centimes as "the duties have been trebled. " The real Increase Is nbout 8 centimes a bottle , from which you will perceive that the tradesman psks4 francs ( U centimes more than ho is 011- tltlod to. Two fraucshavo _ boon added to the nricc.s of linen shirts. Yet the increase in the duty is only 1 franc nor 2.W grams , and Ihe hosiers nro thus only tmtltled to charge ' > centimes or 50 centimes moro than before. It Is the Siime Kiorynlii'rt * . Wherever wo turn wo find iho same plate of things. A real lucroaso of 12 centimes ou American ham is made an excuse for raising the prlco , r > 'J ' centimes. Tinned moats and sausages have risen in the same proportion , while n.utton has not only become dear , but scarce. The question of supply nnd donvimi to somn ox- lent explains these now prices in the latter case. At present about -13,000 sheep a week are consumed. Only 18.0UO uro killed hero and 20,000 rnoi-o are canned up "in the slaughter house. The new duties niudo the introduclion of dead meat almost impossible , and the sani tary inspection does much to check the trade in live beasts. Only l,0s live sheep were sold at the central market yesterday , 2,000 less than Iho average last week. All were Im ported from Gorma'ny. An foreign supplies have fallen off so largely , Paris loons to the French dealers tosupply it with quito 10.000 sheep u week , which is tnoro than all the rest of Franco could produce. Hence , prices hnvogonu up , and are not likely to go down nguiti. Sheep already fetch 20 francs more than thov did u shorl lime ago. Nor have wo louched tne highest price yet. A rise in the cost of choice morsels of beef may bo admissible , hut the French supply suftlce. " for the demands of ordinary custo mers. Germany sends us barely ( > 00 kilos of beef a day. bwitrcrlaud contributes about 4,000 daily in the winter. In the summer the Swiss keep their host beef for thu tourist. Can Hut Keimlille Stiinil II ? And remember , wo nro only ntthooulsctof our troubles. When iho new tariff has been in force for n few monlhs .wo shall see Iho full meaning of iho new commercial system. The republican government will then llml out what the present policy has cost it , nt homo and abroad. And if by ill-luck th next crop should bo short , you may bo sure lhal iho parties which nro hostile to the republic will not bo slow to draw at tention tu the cost of living or lo declare that Iho republics euros nothing for the workmgmen's Irue interests' , in this way Ihoy may regain part of the ground they have lost within the last two yrnrs.
