An excerpt:It was November in Paris.The proverbial gloominess, however, was entirely lacking in the estimation of Colonel Hercules Hoffman, as he looked down on the gay and crowded boulevard from his apartment in the Hotel Bristol.Colonel Hoffman was a New Yorker, a man of wealth, position, and prominence, and in spite of the seductive attractions of the French capital, he was congratulating himself on the completion of the business that had taken him abroad and the prospect of a speedy return home.In Paris Colonel Hoffman was an atom, a mite; in New York he was--somebody.
