In one of t e large dry goods houses there
i a very ingenious c intrivanca for the
dctectio iof s opUfiers. There are no door
in ttio ladies’ toilet r > on and io an adjlin

s’lipil peephole, i pposito which they may be
adjusted so as to c oumand a full view of
tne toilet room and its occupant. Tbe
female detective sta: ions herself in this ad
joining apartment and works tho mirrors.
IViieu she sees any woman stowing articles
a ray under her dress she quietly slips up
stairs and overhauls her as she is about to
depart, concluding tho search by turning
tn-r ov-r to an officer. It requires nerve to
deal with women in such cas is. Very oft
en tho;: are caught at their first attempt at
peculation, and their tears and pleadings
w- 'iiM almost melt a stono; but the female
tHtctive has little mercy for her sex, and
if pennirteJ, she would deal harder w ith a
woman than a man would under similar
c. cumstar.ces.

Mrs. Mohan, formerly a Miss Keelaw, is
the crack woman detective of tne Hah. Sbe
is of middle ago and wonderfully bright, a
great talker and just the person to worm
out any one’s secrets. She had a sort of
mania for detective work, and was unhap
py till she became associated witn the Bos
ton police. Occasionally she runs over to
New York to talk w ith detectives here and
got a few points n the metropolitan method
of working up difficult cases; but her own
resourc js are generally suffic.ent to accom
plish whatever she sets about.
Inspector Byrnes owes some portion of his
phenomenal sueee-s as a rogue catcher to
the fact that ho has not hesitated to employ
women whenever he could do so to advant
age although all the traditions of the central
office were opposed to them. Hardly a day
pass s without one or two of the-e female
Hawkshaws calling on the big-mustacned
chief of the detective squad in the white
marble building in Muloerry 1 street. Few
of the women so employed, however, make
the business of detecting crime a regular
profession. They generally have some
other occupation, and merely take up po
lice work as a means of making extra
money, or because they are in love with
the notion of playing the role of detective.
Women love mystery, and the very mystery
that surrounds the detective’s calling al
lures them, just as the glamour of the stage
fascinates others.
At headquarters the officer tells a re
markable story of a smart woman wtio
hoodwinked the entire detective staff. She
was a plump and pretty widow of about 25,
with a pair of snapping black eyes and a
figure that would have attracted attention
anywhere. One day she called there and
informed the inspector that she wished to
become a detective.
“I know I can succeed in tracking peo
ple,” she said, with an unutterable lo >k out
of tho depth of her beautiful eyes. “I can
read character at a glafice. and I only want
a chance to show what I can do.”
Of course it wouldn’t do to let such talent
go a-begging, and she was given a chance.
Tne result was something quite unexpected.
The charming widow succeeded in “mash
ing” every case she was instructed to
shadow, aud made a good thing out of it in
a financial way; but the central office
made no progress. Her reports were
turned in with great punctuality and par
ticularity; she told just whore Mr. So-and
so passed his evenings, where he got his
money and how he spent it; what he ate
and drank, and when he went to bed. She
was altogether too agreeable for a detective,
and the central office Reluctantly le t her go
and had to confess that, for oace.it had
been duped by a mere woman.
Female detectives proceed upon the
principle that men are mostly fools aid
attack them at the weakest point—their
susceptibility.
“YVhen I succeed in getting a man to
stare at me,” remarked one of those saga
cious trappers of men, “I know I’ve scored
a point. With some men it’s different,
though. Some have to be moved by their
symp itbios, others by the passions. You
see, women have the advantage of men, too,
at the outset in detective work, because we
can disarm suspicion. The first thing in
begin iiug a case is to study how to ap
proach your man properly. I have lain
awake whole nights turning various schemes
over and over in my mind aid rejeo.iug
them, one by one, until ih9 right idea was
hit at last.”
It is astonishing how deftly the fingers of
the women searchers in the custom house
peuotrate tho mysteries of femme apparel.
Seemingly innocent coiffures are made to
yield treasures as though they were capil
lary Golcondas; busts and bustles alike
sink prone beneath their hands, and silks,
velvets and laces drop to the floor, to the
mortification of the rapidly attenuating
smuggler. Hosiery is shown to b * a favor
its receptacle for ribbons ami jewelry
trinkets, and on one occasion the artificial
plumpers in the cheeks of an elderly damo
were found to conceal about $2,500 worth
of diamond-, nil done up in tissue paper
and packed inside. When they were forced
out by t e finger of the i ispector, the ma
tronly smuggler lo >kod as th >ug sho w ould
fain liavo swallowed the it rather than have
them fall into such hand).
Several woman are employed in a semi
detective capacity by the surrogate’s office
for the purpose of serving subphoe ins and
of gathering facts concerning the antece
dents of par.ies indisput and will oases. The
system is for two to call together, about 7
o’clock in the evening, ostensibly on a
friendly visit, and thus .-hey are brought
in contact with the peaplo they desire to
meet.
The female “spotter” is the oldest estab
lished of ail the woman detectives. She is
generally an uneducated person, and can
oe seen riding up and down the street cars
on any of the leading lines daily. She is
cordially detested by bota drivers and con
ductors. but, being a woman, they can’t
say anything to her. Some of the spotters
work with a package of pins, which they
chaugo from one pocket to another, or stick
into their dress, as they ride along recording
the fares. When they leave tha cur they
give tins record to the male spotter, who is
employed to board the car at intervals and
take the reckoning from the reg stor. It is
tho lowest kind of detective worn and is
poo; ly paid.
SOME OF THE BEST GLARET3.
Where They Coma From and Their
Years.
A writer in tho current number of the
Universal Review ot London gives a de
scription of some of the actual cistles
which have given their names to the most
familiar clare s. , Chateau-Margaux he
says, is a short distance from the little town
of Margaux, built at a careful distance from
the sometimes turbulent Gironde. The
present structure is auuassive pile that dates
back not further than the seco .and or third
year of the century. It stands on the site
of an ancient castie built in the flftee ith
century, which played its part in any little
war going forward in the neighborhood. It
was only in the middle of tho eighteenth
century that the then proprietor disco ered
in the pebbly black earth peculiarly favor
able conditions for the culture of tue vine.
He began to plant, and gradually, througn
100 years, tho wines of the Chateau-Jlar
gaux grew in fame. In 1803, when chat
eaux were going cheap, this was bought by
one of the now emperor’s new marquises,
who pulled down tho old chateau and built
the modern looking pile which now stands
in its place. In 187 b tab chateau and the
vineyard came into the no session of Count
Pillet Will.
Cnateau-Lafite be describes as near
Pauillac, a quaint old port on the Garonne,
whence is shipped the produce of tne teem
ing vineyards, divided by the marsh of
Pi-bra i. It has escaped the hauds of the
demolisher, and stands as it did in pre-revo
lutionany days. When Louis XVI. was
parleying with the angered p ipulace of
Paris the chateau belonged to M. da Pich
ard, president of the parliament of Guienne.
But there were two many presidents about;
so M. do Pichard was takan to Paris and
there guillotined. The next step was to
write on the walls of the chateau the magic
words “Propriete National.” House and
vineyard were put up for sale, and brought
into the national coffers a trifle over 1,000,-
OOOf, In 1818 they were sold for something
less than was given in the revolutionary
days, and in 1868 Baron James de Roths
child gave upward of 4,000,000f. for the
property. It now belongs to the heirs of
Baron James, Barons Alphonse, Gustave
and Edmund de Rothschild. Like
Chateau Jlargaux and otners of
the more famous chateaux, the
stately rooms of Lafite are tet.antless.
Not so the cellars, the private cive of the
Retch child containing 581,000 bottles of the
finest wines, noto-ily of Medoc, but of Spain,
Germany and Italy."
After describing some other less famous
chateaux, he says of some of the secrets of
the viniculture:
“We islanders have a vaguo impression
that the chief thing necessary for a vine
growing country is pleoty of sun. The
heat and life giving properties of the sun
are undoubtedly essential; but the soil is
everything. In the Med ,c the limits of the
most famous vineyards are marked with
THE MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY, AUGUST 20, 1889.
strange arbitrariness. Here, where an |
irregular line is arbitrarily drawn, grow
the vinos that make tbe wine of Chateau
Jiurgaux or Latite. A handsbreadtb out
side its vims truly grow, but iroduce wii e
of quite a different quality. Wh it tho vine
likes is tnat stony ground scorned ii the
parable of the seed scatterer. It loves,
ab we all things, the crevices of a rock, into
which its roots penetrate, hardening tbe
plant, and imparting a sjiecial flavor to tho
w-ine. A Meioc wine taster can tell at 1
sip what sort of ground a bottle of wine is
grown in. A stony subsoil imparts a dis
tinct fineness of taste to the wine, while
that grown on a stony laver is marked by
greater body and vinosity."
“While vast quantities of wines in the
Medoc are bottled at the end of the second
year, the fine wines are kept in casks until
tha third or fourth year. Once in a bottle,
well corked, tbe mind of a man may be at
rest about this wine, which, up to a cer
tain limit of time, goes on improving.
W here occasion for care again presents
itself is in getting the wine out of the bottle
with >ut Hhaking. Most wine pantries are
furnished with a small basket in which the
wine bottle may rest while the wine is
drawn into the decanter. Wine merchants
wine tasters, and experienced w.ne driukors
in the Medoc do not trouble themselves
about these cout-ivauces. They carefully
lift the bottle from a horizontal to an
upright position some three or four hours
baf ire it is wanted for the table.
“At the same time they carefully mark
the side of the bottle tnat has lai i upp r
most, and in decanting pour out tho wine
from that, as it is sure to be free from
crust. With steady hand they draw from a
bottle a maximum quantity of absolutely
clear, bright wine. Any one who desires
to drink a good glass of Medoc or Burgun
dy will not decant it till almost tne moment
it is required, thus preserving the freshness
of tho aroma. Good wine needs no bush;
but in our climate (which, by the way,
the experts of the Medoc declare to be the
best possible for storing tine wines) i is
bettor for a little warmth. Rather than
drink red wine in the winter months drawn
from a cellar ii which the temperature has
not been maintained at a desirable pitch
it is better to put the wina where it may
feal the fire.
“A better way still is to leave it on the
mantel-piece of the di ling-room for four or
six hours before it is to be decanted, when
it will have had an opportunity of acquir
ing something like tho temperature of the
room. It is well worth warming the de
canter before pouring in the wine, so that
it may not receive theshockof contact with
the cold glass. Some hosts p issessing red
wines that deserve a better treatment, servo
them up cold out of the cellar, a barbarity
equaled only by bringing in the fish half
done or the soup lukewarm. In such
emergency providence has supplied man
with an effectual remedy tor the oversight.
Tne palm of the ha id closed around
the filled g ass will—if tho glass is thin, as
i should be—speedily bring tho wine to the
desired tamper ture.
“The best wiuo year in the records of the
Gironde is the ye ir which saw the battle of
AV'aterloo and the downfall of Napoleon; 1804
and 1875 are the wines now in bottle which
stand highest in the appeciaton of the wise
men of Modoc. It is not always that a good
year for champagne turns out a favor
able season for red wines; but the year
1874—a year spoken of reverentially by
champagne drinkers —was not loss happy
for red wines. Tue proprietors were foru
nate in enjoying a time of peace, and got
bir prices for their products. The years
1877 and 1878 were excellent ones for the
Medoc, a.d 1880, another tine year for
champag .e, was, for th i Medoc, a sea
son of only ordinary vintage. The 1881
crop was well harvested, and c n the whole a
good year. Eighteen h indred and eighty
four was not so good for red wme as for
champagne; but 1887 was on the whole fair,
but not line! yto bs mem >rabl Tne ISBB
crop, I hear tip n hig .est authority, ‘has
come on splendidly since the vintage.’ Con
temporary interest in these dates is sorely'
limited. It is s tid that s ims wines of
Modoc, notably those of the C lateau-Lx
Laguue, a wine little known in this country,
preserve all their virtues after being for y
years in bottle. But for the liest wines and
the ordinary palate, tnirty years in bottle
is long enough. A bottle of Chateau-Mar
gaux of lßtiJ, Chateau-Lafite of 1884, or
or Chateau-L itour of 1875; may be warran
ted to fulfill the highest aspirations of tho
nicest and most exigeant palate.”

Several years ago I was called to see a colored
woman who had a malignant form of cancer on
her foot. The cancer grew worse under tho pre
scribed treatment, and the toes and one side of
the foot were at length eaten entirely away. The
patient could not have survived much longer,
but I commenced the use of Swift’s Specific,
and it cured her sound well. That was three
years ago, aud there has been no return of the
disease. I regard Swift’s Specific a most exec!
