I.lko vultures hovering over opposing armies In battlo tho clever est and most dangerous thieves and thugs and confidence men of tho wholo world will bo present In forco n,t tho French capital from tho beginning to tho end of tho com ing exposition. So extensive were tho dopro- datlons of tho criminal classes during tho last exposition that tho minister of com jnerco declared tho material advantages ac cruing to Paris from tho great show were moro than countcrbolanced by tho bad nnmo given to tho city by tho horde of evil doers, both foreign and nutlvo, who preyed ipon tho unwary. Trado was beuclltcd, but, owing to tho enso with which criminals vOrlched themselves, tho wrongdoers of Paris wcrn confirmed In their ways nnd their numbers wcro Increased to an extraor dinary degreo. In tho opinion of tho min ister thq net result was a moral retrogres sion, tho 'effect of which was by no menus confined to Franco and which cast a slur Upon its fair nnmo. It hns been deter mined that tho exposition of 1000 shnll not Incur this reproach ond M. l.eplno, tho Paris prefect of police, has been hard at work (tir mouths organizing Bpeidal meas ures for the1 protection of tho lives, the prop erty and tho peaco of tho strangers whom tho exposition will attract. l,i'ilH Itemly for l'. lliloer, Ho has entered Into relations with the police authorities at tho principal cities of tho world in order to Secure their co-operation, and u"o now declares himself quite ready to copo with, all tho clever villainy which in a few weeks will swoop down upon tho city. Tho following details of thi- system ot prevention und iletcntlon vhleh has been evolved havo been furnUdied to tho writer by M. Ixplno hlimself and tho olllclals who work under him. At the Immense hotel of tho profecturo thoro is now installed tho incut completo "rogues' gallery" In tho wholo world. It contulns photographs, bodily miuiHUfemonts. thumb prints and biographies of tho vetcrun crlmlnul magnates of nearly every civilized land. Tho green-goods men of America, tho buried treosuro experts of Spain, tho mercenary assassins of Italy, tho card ehnrper of Orceco (and of everywhere olse), tho fJerraan "barons" with fur coats and cbarmlne manners who borrow from their fellow hotel guests a trilling sum of $500 or so while they wait for tho remit tance which tho mujordomos of their castle and estates on tho Hhlne havo forgotten to send; tho Amsterdam nierchanto of false diamonds; theso and nil tho rest of tho droary company ot crcoks anJ criminals are represented in tho vnst collection. French consuls stationed In nil the big cities of tho earth havo obtained from the police authorities every kind of data that can bo of any pcwMblo value. No prominent criminal can leave n'ny city for Paris with out his movements belnc .made known nt onco to tho Paris authorities with completo Information regarding his special line nnd Ills methods. In a long b.iIIo which looks like a library are hundreds ot boxes and pigeonholes containing careful etudlrs of different forms of swindling practiced In different countries. Prom theso tho Paris detcctlvo service has boon able to Increawe Its knowledge of tho Inner v.orklng of the most expert gangs nnd thus It will ho able to tako effective measurto for warning the pub lie against them and to securo nrrcots when a swindle hns been accomplished. In hotelH, In cafes, In railroad stntlons and other public places, printed placards In forming vlsltoro of Komo of tho devices likely to bo employed against them by dis honest persona will bo posted up nnd It is expected that theso will havo a considera ble effect In diminishing tho number of .victims. Illlf l'iri f Hike Coi. Precautions tavo also been taken against tho criminals who employ brute force rather than subtlety. Tho city of Paris has authorized a large Increase In tho number of street police; tho night serv ice especially will be arranged on a much larger Bcalu than In ordinary times. The nrmed mounted police will be nearly doubled. A service of bicycle police, some what on tho model of tho well known and cITectlvo corps In New York, is being lions, Betting u close watch on tho mail bags and keeping a keen cyo on distributors and letter carriers alike. Also tho city of Paris has undertaken always on tho advlco of the all-powerful prefect of police to linprovo In certain places tho lighting of Its thoroughfares. Elec tric lamps aro being Installed wherever thero ore routes likely to bo frequented, which formed. Hy tbo middle of April thero will . hnVo been favorite lurklug places of doubt NEW niCVCLB POLICE OP PAWS. 1' m ft be 210 of theso sturdy fellows, nil expert riders and provided with the very best ma chines. Their uniform will be rather pe culiar and may amuse American visitors. It will consist of a blouse, Uko that of n French stonemason's, made of thin blue sturf, very voluminous down to the knees, whero they will bo caught In tight by leather galteis. Tho ordinary kepi or cap, with a foreplece worn by the reg ular police, wilt completo tho costume. In tho daytime these comical looking bike po licemen will carry tho customary sword bayonet, tho sheath of which will be nt ! tached to tho saddle of tho machine In such ! n way as to bo within easy reach of the hand. 'in tho night they will bo further nrmed with a pair of revolvers worn In a pistol belt. ! All this largo force of horse and bicycle police will bo kept up to the murk, always on the alert, through a continual perform ance inspection by their olllcers, who will spend tho day and night galloping about to sco that every man 1b actively on the lookout. M. Leplno himself, who by no means contents himself with directing things from his otllee, will scatter himself about the town tu his automobile. With nil this elaborate preparation It Is believed that un effective chock will bo kept on such mid night thugs us thoie who sandbagged or dag gered belated exposition visitors In lonely roads and by tho dark quays during' tho last exposition. Thero nro several flashy and nttrnctlve cafes well known to peoplo living In Paris, whero u regular profession Is mado of rob- i blng wealthy people who havo drunk too ' much wlno nnd fallen Into tho hands of weductlvo cmtntrlces. Theso will bo under constant surveillance and whenever any visitor Bcems likely to fall n victim to a charmer with designs on his roll of bank bills a word of wnmlng will be given or h3 I will bo simply taken out by un agent of tho police nnd taken homo In a cab. Theso places It Is hard, for varloui reasons, to close altogether. Very frequently, too, though the police know that u robbery has been committed, It Is Impossible to ohtaln legal proof of guilt. It Is hoped that many careless visitors will be saved by this sur veillance from falling Into tho traps laid for them. Ilyriii'' Old limiie. With regard to tho ordinary plckjiockcls ond sneak thieves, known to thu police, whether native or foreign, very direct measures will bo taken.

This pounds liko rathe' a high- hnndo.l. unjust proeeedlne, but the plan Is fill charoctoro In the past, owing to their darknets.

"And tho cost of nil this, M. lo Prefect?" "Tho root? It will bo enormous. Hut It Is worth while." Someone hns calculated that from tbo UNDER.

Schemes of life nro often Illusory and It was particularly so In my own career, writes Edouard do Heszko In tho Independent.

During a school holiday I wiih in Paris, Just prior to the initial performances. of "Alda" In that city In 1S70. Verdi was conducting tho rehearsals of his ho said was, "You'll do," ond, turning to Escudler, who was present, requested him to tako mo to the theater und provide me with a costume! Argument with Verdi whb in vain, nnd so between Indignation nnd amusement I related my adventuro to my mother nnd sister, saying to them that I would bo subject to neither Verdi nor Escudler, who apparently assumed that I belonged to them by right of dlscovory. Learning subsequently from Escudler, how ever, that Verdi had selected mo out of the many bassos proposed to him for tho part of tho king, nnd ccrtnlnly expected me nt tho rehearsal next day, I finally agreed to sing in tho opera ns Verdi wished. With but two rehearsals I went through tho ordeal ot a debut In Paris side by side with such artists as Stoltz, Maslnl, Waldmnnn nnd Pnndolllnl, and Verdi himself at the conductor's desk!

Initially, I sang only in Italian nnd almost exclusively, Italian works. All my vocal studies wero directed toward tho mustering of tho art of bcl canto, but, of course, without neglecting the principles of lyric doclamntlon. In fact, tho art of singing as understood by the old singers, whom I wns privileged yet lo henr, cmbracod much moro than Is generally supposed today. It ccrtnlnly comprised dec lamation In a high degree. Tho current no tion Is thnt adepts of bel canto puro and simple cared merely nbout benuly of tone, vocal gymnastics and dodges In volco pro duction. Not h bit of it. Thoy all knew how to underline, their phrases with ncqents, variety of expression nnd coloring tho voice, nnd therein lies all the secret of lyric dec lamation. Coloring the volco Is, of courso, only n liguro of speech. What I menn by It Is that tho character you give to a vocal phrase should be so distinct ns to convey to tho henrcr tho sense of tho situation even It the words aro not understood. Somutlmes you have to niter tho character ot your volco altogether, so as to suit tho part dramatically or vocally. For example, tbo kind ot speaking volco that does for Leporello would not answer for Marcel Id "Tho Huguenots." And again you must coloi your volco differently for "Mephlsto" than for "Don Haslllo," for tho King In "Lohen grin" or Trlstam nnd Ilodolfn In tho "Som nambula."
