TJIE IIKAL PARIS.
Ail American Sdiilout' Peiiclriiii-N Hc-
Iiliul itlu Onji Snrfnt > i of Its I.Ifi- .
Not long ago an observant young Ameri
can student in Paris wrote privately to the
Boston Transcript Listener , saying among
other things that ho < lld not like Paris. Tiio
Listener , a little surprised at this , asked him
why. His response to the question may
Inteiest some youuu people who are thinking
of going there. "It Is the most wonderful ,
most beautiful city in the world. " ho says ,
"anU the most terrible. All other cities I
have seen , even Chicago and Now York , arc
mere villages to It as far as noise and life
are concerned , and Its beauty Is so lavish :
If I called Berlin a Home , It was with the
thought of Rome under the conquerors , who
made an Augustus possible ; Paris Is the
Rome after that : Its Immorality uncon
cealed , Us glony ot the past and its egotism
of the present expressed In Its magnificent
monuments. * * Paris is the great elty
of 'pleasure ' , from cellar to dome , and In It
Is a museum of pleasures as varied as
humanity. Everything Is there , and nothing
Is concealcil. The Bight one sees eating , as
I did , "during " two monthfl , on the sidewalks
of the houJovarda ; the cripples , the vendors ,
the 111 thy old hags , the men selling tllthy
pictures , songs and literature and trash of
all kinds , the musicians , the low comedians
who cut capers before the cafes , and "a
thousand other creatures who do anything
for n petit sou. * * * I da not hpeak only
of the Quartler Latin , where I lived two
months , or the Quatier Montmartre , but of
Paris In general. I have never aeon such
abandon as I have seen nt the famous Ilulller
or Doiilo Mlche , , . , U was hard to come from
tl.o Louvre , tliB'Victory , MHo , and the
thousand marvels there , anil meet lin-
mediately disgusting sights on the boulevard
or promcrmdo of an afternoon In the Champs
Rlyscc , ' .nniU'bce oven hero. In this beautiful
park , cafes chantants absolutely worthless ,
nnd ( heir ugly unclean posters , Paris tome
mo Is absolutely permeated with Immorality
and unhealthy to the ccro. It Is living Itself
to death. Above all this there Is a delight
ful circle of people ; but even hero the line
between the 'convenaMo' and the 'Incnn-
venablo' Is not marked as we mark It. The
children sing FOURS and say things that arq
absolutely forbidden among us , I Kpolto to
Mine. about it , and slie said , speaking of
one sang ; 'Kile cst Inconvenablc , tout-a-fnit
Inconvonable die cst sale ; mals ca amutn
Jes enfanta ! '
"Tho-strange thing about Paris Is Iliat
there Is no qimileinr one or Two quarters
ot filth , Ilka Cireen street , In Doston , tlia
Howcry , Now York ; South Clark and State
street , riilcago , The city Is too well Iklitod
nml mrnd * for nnrl tnn
wealthy * and yet In splto of Its
wealth ono BCCS misery and poverty cvery-
whcie except In the district of I'asjy and
the Are dp Trloraphe. It IB what Victor
Hugo winto about , what tlio .wrltcro of to
day still harp upon , and what Kola puts
naked before one ; perhaps Zoln lies and
exaggerates , hut ho knows what ho Is lying
about. Ha would not otherwise have the
audacity to say nil he says. I walked ono
night , about 2 a. in , , from tbo district near
Mm pnrn St T-iwirn In thi Latin Ouarlpr. a
distance of per hops Ilirco miles , along Hue
Lafayette anil the Boulevards Ui's Itallens ,
Eolmstopol nnd St. Michel. The cafes weto
ulmokt cloccd or closing , end the street *
quiet , for Paris , but not deserted simply
falling asleep after having resisted nearly
twenty-four hour * . It was then I saw pov
erty andi wretchedness. The gay world was
gone , leaving on Hie uorehw of the I'oulo-
varda ulx or ten' ' In a block , the homeless-
men , women , children of all ages , from
babes In arms rte unwashed , Ill-clad old
peonl ? . They sat sleeping , two to alx ou a
bench , and some few , finding the sidewalk

there. I do not believe any ot them were
drunk. I have BCQ& our American cities end
other European clllesr ot the name hour and
noticed the wietcheJncss there , but never
such an army ns here. It la not ulmply
because these unfortunates da not ilvo In

that their 'cgouta1 cover ParU like a nut-
