Captain Paratler , the Trench explorer ,
who recently returned to Paris from Africa ,
Is a diminutive , slightly built man * whose
juvenile appearance was Increased , before
his last trip to Africa , by a pale face and
a scarcely visible moustache. This youthful
aspect caused him to be the subject of a
very disagreeable experience three or four
years ago. He was walking about the
streets of Algiers In mufti with the red
ribbon of the Legion of Honor displayed
In his buttonhole , when a police ofll.-er sud
denly stopped him and tersely remarked :
"Off with that ribbon , you young rascal.
Decorations are not Intended for boys like
you. " Baratler , of course , was frantic with
Indignation , but It took some time to con
vince the minion of the law that be was
dealing with a gallant oltlcer and already
dlstlngulsher explorer.

and there naa nothing to do but pronounce
sentence. 'And Is It upon the oath o' thlm
two witnesses that yer honor's going to
condemn me ? ' said the prUoner. 'Cer
