SEARCH FOR THRILLS

NIGHT LIFE IN PARIS Though it is not possible to indicate the actual name of the English girl who figured in the distressing affair disposed of by the arrival of her parents in Paris, summoned from England by the police, the facts of the strange story are officially vouched for. And they throw a strange light on the lengths to which some highly-strung girls of good family are now prepared to go in search of thrill*. Miss L fell into the hands of the police in the course of a raid on a night establishment on the left bank of the Seine. She was under the inllueuce of drink and drugs, and the police had observed that for clays she had been the constant companion of an Apache known as “ Bernard the One-eyed.” Though this man is of repulsive appearance, for eighteen months the delicately nurtured girl hud been paying visits to Paris for no other purpose than to seek his society. She was warned more than otico hy the police of the character of her companion, but when it was found that the warnings only seemed to intensify her interest in him, the police felt it was necessary to take drastic steps. She refused to give the address of her parents in England, hut after some trouble the police traced her home address and her people were advised immediately and asked to come to Paris to take charge of their daughter.
