Nothing ; was safe from the wild mob after that. ' The column erected to the memory of ' Napoleon and his army In one of ihf principal squares of I'uris was pulled I ilowu us a monument of tyranny." A ! systematic war was Ix'gun OB nil puli lie buildings, petroleum being used to ignite them and the flames being fed with oil to make them burn the faster. No oue wg allowed to Interfere with the progress of the flames, nnd the loss wns Incalculable, many priceless rel:cs being destroyed. Murder stnlked through the street!, by day and night. Human life WBa counted so cheap that the sight of the dead lying In the street excited scarce ly any attention at all. While the mur derer were killing; they were them selves being killed, for the government troops under Marshal MacMahon fierce ly attacked the Insurgents, and 1 hin-i hastily thrown up barricades of pavlag stones, wagons, hout.hold furniture and anything that enme handiest, the strife ran red in the atreets of Paris. Cannon ahol were fired at the barri cade, volleys were flred up and down the aireets; the sight o,f a man fleeing for hit life, pursued by n mob of demons firing at the fugitive until he fell riddled with balls, was a sight that could he seen almost every hour of tome of the day. So demoniacal had become the uMirderoua mob of Paria that womeu were shot down In the streets, and the dend who did this, not content with killing the living, would empty their gun again and again Into the flaccid corpse in sheer excess of passion anil wnnton eagerness to kill. The commune came to an end only nhen 26,000 prisoners had been taken and Pari had been so torn by strife that It seemed a hopeless tak to bring order out of chaos. Many of the pris oners suffered death, while a number were transported. The commune was l)eaten down, but not killed entirely during this terrible era. The spirit of the commune survives in Paris, and, a. the late riots prove, it needs only an opportunity and a leader to break oui red-handed once more. The commune nnd the spirit of the cnmmiina are old and familiar phan toms of Pari. The war that gave America its freedom gave birth in Prance to the hope that there was re lief to the people from the lash under which they had groaned for so long. Contemptuously kicked aside by the nobles, treated far worse than the horses In the aristocratic stables, the French peasants cowered and slirun1; from their persecutors, hut nursed feel ings of revenge nevertheless. The storm broke at last, und for once at least the people had souie cause to kill. The tide of murder rose iu every part of the country. Hlood was first shed on July 12. 1789. in a fljrht be tween the people and the king's troop It was the first blood of a terrible era that left France satisfied with killiri"; The streets literally ran blood. Th' guillotine, sailed into existence by thfl necessity for some means of putting an end to life that would be more ex peditious than the comparatively slow method of execution by (he headman' ax, cut off heads as fast as their owners' necks enuld be bared and placed be neath Hie fntal knife. King, queen, family, nobles, suspects, pasted by the guillot inc. until there was no mor aristocratic blood to be shed, and still the people thirsted for more. Then came the leaders who had condemned others to death. In their turn they were condemned and killed, and those who saw them go to their death them selves went to the beyond by way of the. guillotine at the command of newer lenders of the murder mob. The suddenness with which the French nation plunges into a vortex of blood is only equaled by the eat? with which the country is mopped up and set to rights again after the reigl' of terror Is over. Order succeeds cha is with amazing celerity. It Is a faculty peculiar to the French No other na tion's hiftory can show such feBI'ful bloodletting, combined with so com plete a recovery when the verge of nn tlonnl disintegration hat been reached. -t.
