I ' shall, then, limit myself to put on the elegantly wicked canvas a human spot, which, on a certain day of March, 1902, almost spoiled and ruined the aforesaid landscape That March day there lounged about the office of Ute Casino, surrounded b the splendors of Nature and Art, a forlorn-lookinmortal, the image of niter destitution. You might have shaken him violently without producing th6 slightest metallic Jingle. Ilia eadaveroua face, hia hollow eyes, his j.rvmuloua lips, hia unkempt hair ao plainly proclaimed him "dead broke"--t- o use the phrase so tamiliar to the ear of his American compatriots that he might have brought anlt against them for libel bad not their charge been so fully sustained by the facta of the case. He bore all the unmistakable earmarks of poverty and misfortune. Judging .by the .dents, in its crown' and the dilapidated state of Its brim, hia silk tile seemed to have been the butt of Us owners disappointed hopes though a and consequent happy Inspiration had prompted him to impart to it a certain degree of brilliancy by means of a wet shoe brush. A three days' growth of beard bristled obstinately on his chin.

After auch a harangue, what waa left for the American? The only course open to him waa to take refuge in the arms of the administration. He buttoned to his chin his last Prince Albert, ao thin and threadbare. It concealed no vest.

He yielded finally to the suggestion a of the unscrupulous Lartichaux, and went to see what tbe administration would do for him. Lartichaux followed wltb bia eves on the Americans progress over the hills of the Condamine, np the road to tbe summit, where, embowered in palms and other tropical vegetation, stands the Casino of Monte Carlo.
