PARIS, March 27. 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

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. Whenever any one
of them Is seen, however Innocently he may
bo nmuelng himself, ho will simply bo ar
rested on tho spot nnd cltbct frightened
into leaving thcclty or kept In. custody as
n suspect, while tho authorltl.il can find
sufficient proof of past unpunished mis
deeds to warrant a permanent Imprison
ment. This pounds liko rathe' a high-
hnndo.l. unjust proeeedlne, but the plan Is
fill charoctoro In the past, owing to their
darknets. A largo section of tho Hols de
Iloulogno has had gns lamp pests Instulled
for tho llrst time. Tito moonlight drive In
the Hois, only a few minutes from tho Arc
do Trlompho, which Is always a temptation,
will become wafer In consequence.
In fine, tho prefect has endeavored, bb hu
says, to convince tho world that tho Paris
pollco Is worthy of Its reputation, that It
does not unduly boast when It declares Itself
tho finest pollco forco In the world.
"And tho cost of nil this, M. lo Prefect?"

Schemes of life nro often Illusory and It
was particularly so In my own career, writes
Edouard do Heszko In tho Independent. Of
ficially, I was Intended for an agriculturist,
nnd I studied with this end In view nt Pros
chtiu, In Silesia. 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! It seomod when I found
myself upon tho stngo for tho first time that
I must perish with fright, but, somehow,
tho crooked paths wero made straight and
things went pretty well.

viz., French, Italian nnd Gorman. Durim?
my career I created seventeen parts be

"Alda," "Herodlade," "Lo Cld," "Patrle,"
"Aben Unmet," "Dcmouls," "Volleda."
"Elaluo," "Sigurd," "Lady of Longford."
"Olaconda," "Hoi do Jjibore," "Maria Tu

sang under his bnton, as well as under
Verdi's nnd Hublnsteln's. 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

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." Once you nro master of your
voice, having Its full rango under command
and control, your Industry must bo applied
