Paris, Aug. 24. --Mlle, Lillie Desire, a young Frenchwoman with some ac- fiuaintance with the police, spied a 2own on a dummy in a shop window last Saturday that just suited her fancy. She passed and repassed the place many times, and the more rhe cooked at the gown the more sho co- veted it. About nightfall she entered the shop hile there were many customers in he place, and dodged behind a big lacard that reached ghove her head. 10 one saw her and soon the clerks 'osed the shop and went home. Once alone in the shop Mlle. Desire lipped the gown off 'the figure, ran whind the big placard and put it on, hen she posed in front of a tall mir- or and her eves danced with pleasure o sec that the beautiful gown fitted wrfectly. After admiring herself to her heart's 'ontent she crept back of her screen, est some watchman should spy her, and dozed fitiully all night long. om opening the "shop 'ame Mlle Desire took the position of 'ay figure or dummy in the show vindow until the shutters should be tuken down and she could get a hance to slip through the open door. Vinutes, then hours, dragged slowly w as she stood rigid for the "figure." Finally the sound of church bells struck her ear--it was Sunday. Not being wound up for the task of playing "dummy" for a stretch of hirty-six hours, the situation wore on her delicate nerves. She lacked courage to give the alarm and fall into the hands of the police. That meant another sentence. So she waited on and on in the hope that something might turn up to let her slip ont undetected in the finery. The porters opened the shop the next morning, and found what they thourht was a "dummy" fallen on the floor. They tried to stand it up, but it was limp. Then they discover- ed that it was a woman in a faint dressed in the rich show pown. To the police judge Mlle. Desire re- lated all the details of her long im- priconment. "You've suffered nearly enough to expiate your crime," he remarked, "so I shall give you only two weeks in jail." LIVE STOCK MARKETS. Prices Paid For Stock In United States Markets.

DOLL IN COFFIN. Man Tell: How He Was Officially Buried. Washington, 1. C., Aug. 24.--Telling a remarkable story of how he was once officially buried and recorded dead in the health office of the dis- trict of Columbia, Lewis Alexander, an electrician, of New York, declared that with documents inherited from his foster mother, Mary Aomarolia, a wealthy negress, he would force his real father, a distinguished resident of Washington, to provide for him. "Until five years ago," said Mr. Alexander, "my father supposed that all that was mortal of me rested be neath a little white stone marked with a cherub and the name 'Lewis Alexander Almarolia." But all that the coffin beneath that mound eon- tains is the remnants of what more than twenty years ago was a doll. "My father was a native of Kentue- ky and prominent in American public life. Soon after I was born, | was placed in the hands of Mary Almaro- lia, a really -remarkahle negress. Then my father and mother were divore- ed. Mrs. Almarolia was told to rear me if T lived. She knew that my fath- er did not care whether I lived and never intended to Jecognize me. "My mother, evidently fearing that my father, should I grow up and ever have a suspicion of my true birth, would take steps to see that I never came into my own, arranged that Mrs. Armarolia should tell my father that I had died. This was done, a doll was placed in a coffin and a funeral was held. My mother died later, but not hefore she had placed in Mrs. Al- matolia's hands certain evidence which gives me absolute proof as to mv birth. "I cannot say I have been aporoach- ed by any emissaries of mv relatives, but a lawyer with whom I was talk- ing suggested in an apparently ofi- hand manner that I take a trip to Furope. He gaid: 'Do not stir this thing up. It will not only cause a scandal in the historv of public life and diplomacy. It will do no good. Now, if you desire, I know that vou can ro anywhere vou like--to San Francisco, to Europe--and live like a gentleman. "I don't intend to leave until I have had. an understanding with mv father's: peonle. Tt is not likely that I shall tell who they are." Amputation Necessary. Watertown, NY. Aug 24.--Dr. Grant C.

The officer rode out and asked in Chinese where the Rus- sians were, and what was their strength, 1 know a little Chinese, and answered him, but either I said something wrong or he noticed my revolver and money bulging out. At any rate, he became suspicious, and spoke some words to his men. Two of the latter thereupon dismounted and came toward me.
