Two if the cleverest; women ever em ployed by the Pinkertons are Kitty Parker aoti Jennie Hughes. They assisted in track ing down so ne of the most celebrated criminals, acting i.i conjunction with male detectives, One of the girls from much running after thieves became a thief herself and and is now in the language of the fra ternity, "laid up for repairs”—otherwise in prison. Together they captured several substantial rewindsf i detective work. 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 ing room are several reflex mirrors with a 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. o.:e of the women who made a fine record ns a detective is now the wife of the chief o. a detective agency. She made so many remarkably clover hits in the way of recov ers g dresses and jewelry that had boo i stolen trom actro sas that she was in almost ii con land demand Ivy the theatrical pro fession fur such services.

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.” MEDICAL, SKINT CANCiKi. 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! lcr.t medicine for blood diseases, as its tendency is to drive out the poison. Mathervillc, Miss. Wm. E. Stagg, M.D. 3SIS^ CANCER OF THE TONGUE.
