The little body stepped silently passed the police station in theâ€" Rus de Tanger, which «buts on the line of exterior Boulevard, and the sergents de ville who Jounged about took no more noâ€" tice of them than to remark, perhaps, that they would not require much discinline to muke them fit for duty.

At 157 on the Boulevard there is a ;bx:(: of the city firemen, who are a military y, divided into two battalions, drilled and armed like troops of the lime. .
