From the New York Mail and Express.
There neverjvas a time in this country
when systematic smuggling was so diffi
cult as it is now. Insignificant amounts
of contraband goods are probably brought
in constantly by tourists and employes of
steamers and railroads, but when the vol
ume of such importations becomes suffi
cient to nttract notice in the channels of
trade investigation soon discovers the cul
prit. A smuggler once detected must
abandon this calling, for the stock-in
trade of a professional smuggler is his
power to travel without exciting sus
picion.
An illustration of the way systematic
smuggling works out its own suppression
x to be seen in the arrest a year or two
ago of a deckhand on a German steamer,
who had been bringing small quantities
of phenacetine into the country without
paying duty. He 1 disposed of the stuff to
u saloonkeeper In Hoboken, who had the
more difficult task of finding a market
for it.
A young man was found who undertook
to sell it to retail druggists in this city.
He was successful in many instances.
One wholesale drug house had the Ameri
can agency for the goods at the time.
Their orders suddenly fell off in certain
quarters of thf city, and their salesmen
began an investigation. The end was
swift. The yourv man who sold the goods
was arrested and confessed. The deck
hand was arrested when next he stepped
ashore iu this country, and the business
was broken up.
It is not always go easy to detect the
smuggler, however, even when his guilt
and identity are morally certain. A Cus
tom House officer of many years' experi
ence relates a story of not very long ago
to show this.
The jewelers of this city complained
that certain mer were disposing of dia
monds at prices possible only by import
ing them du'v free. The government set
its foreign agencies at work to unravel
the mystery, and one day a cablegram
came from Paris notifying the inspectors
of the Custom House that the culprit
was coming ats a cabin passenger on a
certain liner with the usual consignment
of gems, which he would undoubtedly
negleet to declare.
Hut He Was Caught.
Two inspectors were sent to quarantine
to board the vessel and apprehend the
smuggler. This they did. They found him
to be a Frenchman who would easily pass
for a gentleman. He was indignant. He
protested. He explained that this was his
first trip to this country. He was coming
here,' he explained, to go into business.
He had no dutiable goods in his posses
sion.
Despite his protests he was thoroughly
searchedr His baggage was searched.
Everything in his stateroom was search
ed. The soap on his washstand was cut
in two. His mouth was examined. But
the diamonds could not be found. He
professed the greatest disgust at his re
ception and declared that he would not
come to such a country. He refused to
go ashore, and re-engaged passage back
10 France on the same steamship, retain
ing the same stateroom.
Some of his friends in this city called
on him on hoard and tried to shake his
resolution. It was in vain. He sailed
away again. But the diamond market
was affected immediately thereafter by a
large amount of cheap diamonds.
Thoroughly chagrined and angry, the
Inspectors subsequently captured the same
man with unmistakable evidences of his
guilt, and, while awaiting sentence, he
confessed to them how he had managed
to outwit them. He had bored a hole in
the wall of his stateroom and suspend
ed the gems by a string between the
woodwork and the iron plates of the hull.
The holt- he had filled during the voyage
with wax and had painted It over so
skillfully that the spot was indistinguish
able from its surroundings. While un
der surveillance he had not disturbed the
hiding place, but in the confusion of sail
ing he had withdrawn the diamonds and
Placed them in the hands of a pretty
French woman who had called with oth
ers of his friends here to bid him bood-by.
The “Opera Singer” Case.
Women often make expert smugglers.
Toe customs inspectors will not soon for
get “Mme. Leonte Jouvin. the opera sing
er.” It was during the time when “tools
of trade” were admitted duly free, and
operatic and theatrical stars were allowed
to bring in their costumes for use on the
sn.ge as tools of trade. Mme. Jouvin
was an extreme beautiful woman, and
she made a sensation on the steamer on
which she came, over Tty her magnificent
costumes and her sprightliness and' wit.
All the passengers understood that she

w.th Maurice Grau, and when the Inspcc

completely ffiscinnted by the talented wo
man. She tgok the trouble to'show them
her contract with Mr. Grau, although it'
was scarcely necessary.* The contract
was an elaborate one, and detailed not
only how much salary Mme. Jouvin was to
receive as a prima donna, but also what

and the number of attendants to wait on
her at the Opera House.
The facts were, of course, reported to
the chief of the department, who happen
ed to be a personal friend of Mr. Grau,
and. meeting that gentleman the same
evening, congratulated him upon his ac
quisition of anew and brilliant star. Mr.
Gran wa ” nonplused.
“I have hot engaged anew prima don- !
na,” he replied. ,
Investigation proved that the supposed
prima donna was a New York dress
maker, and that her magnificent cos- ;
tumes were her slock of dresses purchas
ed for many fashionable customers. They
were promptly seized and the woman was
arrested.
Many persons have a strange fondness
for smuggling, who in all other respects
are apparently honest and respectable.
Mr. P. J. Phelps of the law department of
the Custom House was visited some time
ago by a prominent New York clergyman,
who seemed to be laboring under great
excitement. He asked for a private In- j
tervlew, and insisted upon having the
doors locked. Then he unbotoned his coat I
and spread out a quantity of lace on
Mr. Phelps' desk.
Conscience Fond Ahead.
“I smuggled that in yesterday,” said
the clergyman. “I arrived with my two
daughters after a vacation trip to Eu
rope. I made them promise not to smug
gle anything before I would consent to
take them, and again when we were com
ing home on the steamer I reminded
them of their promise. Well, last night,
after we had reached home. I went to
the r rooms to kiss them good night, just
as J have always done since they were
babies, and there the mischief-makers sat
on their bed, with my overcoat between
then, and they were ripping open the lin
ing. Inside the lining was this lace.
•• My dears,’ said I, ‘what does this
mean 7 Didn’t you promise not to smug
gle am thing if I let you go to Europe
with me?’
” We didn’t smuggle this, papa, they
replied; ‘you smuggled it yourself.'
•‘Now, I did not sleep a wink last
night,” continued the good man. "and I
have come to you the first thing this
morning tc ask your advice."
Mr. Phelps examined the lace, which
was not exceptionally valuable. "If you
undertook to declare this now,” said he,
“It would require explanations that would
be extremely embarrassing to you and
your daughters.”
“Just so,” said the clergyman.
“That bring the case ( why not take
the lace home again, and say nothing
about It?”
“No, sir,” replied the minister, "I can
not consent to such a course. Is there
no other way?”
“Yes,” said Mr. Phelps, “you can make
a contribution to the conscience fund if
you desire. The duty on this lace would
not exceed {4O or SSO. Suppose you send
that amount of cash to the conscience
fund.”
“The very thing.” replied the minister.
That afternoon a messenger brought in
an envelope addressed to Mr. Phelps con
taining five ten-dollar bills, wlth a slip
of paper marked "For the conscience
fund,” and Mr. Phelps forwarded the
money to the proper officer of the govern
ment, who acknowledged its receipt in a
three-line item in the newspaper. But
nobody ever knew the name of the donor,
and this is the first time the story has
been given to the public.

For wonderful feats of detection In
spectors Donahue and Brown of the
barge office are celebrated. Last summer
Inspector Donahue, by apparent accident,
rubbed up against a portly passenger
and felt a money belt, wlih its pockets
bulging. The passenger was invited to a
private room. The pockets of the belt
were filled with jewelry. The gentleman
proved to he a prominent St. Louis mer
chant who was carrying these articles
home from Paris as souvenirs for teach
ers of a Sunday school of which he was
superintendent.
Only a few days ago the same inspector
felt a wad In a passenger’s armpit, and
upon examining It. discovered a leathern
bag filled with diamonds of great value.

THE SOITH AFRICAN ABORIGINES.
There Are Ten Millions of the Blacks
ami the AVhites Fear Them.
Edgar Mels in Collier's Weekly.
It has taken 200 years and thousands of
lives to wrest South Africa from its abo
riginal owners. Let them once see the
opportunity of getting back their birth
right, and the scenes of the Indian mu
tiny, with its attendant horrors, will be
repeated. I have lived among the natives
and speak from knowledge. There is only
one thing they hate worse than a white
man, and that is two of them. Year* of
biutal treatment have caused them to
look upon the white as their natural en
emy. The native has no rights—he oaft
live, yes, but that is about all. He must
not be out of doors after 8 in the even
ing unless he has a permit from his "mas
ter.” He must do a certain amount of
work every year or he cannot remain.
And what is most inhuman of all, his
"master” can in certain cases of diso
bedience whip him with a lash made of
hippopotamus h!de an inph thick at the
butt and tapering to a thread. Properly
applied, this whip can take a nice strip
cf flesh and skin out of the toughest na
tive extant. It is brutal in the extreme.
That and many other reasons is why the
native longs for the moment of revenge—
of deliverance!
The native is like a child, and if prop
erly treated *is anunable to anything
within reason. He is grateful for trifles,
and will reciprocate with interest, if he
can. The average native has a highly
developed sense of humor, and will laugh
and chuckle on the slightest provocation.
His great weakness is his f ndnesss for
sweei things. While in Johannesburg I
had three Basutos in my employ. Their
duty consisted In supplying the motive
power for the press and in distributing
the papers. Incidentally they wrapped
the out-of-town edition, and that caused
iheir downfall. .The paste, made of flour
and water,. used in wrapping the papers,
disapprarrd at an alatming rate. Think
ing that rats were the thieves. I dosed
It liberally with cloves. The paste went
faster than ever. Up to this time, I had
not suspected either Six Pence, Piet or
Charley, but Six Pence acted so guilty
when I inquired about the paste that 1
determined to watch. Accordingly I hid,
and that evening saw the trio feasting
on the paste—it was their desert. I did
not whip them or have them arrested. I
gave them tobacco and talked kindly to
them. The result? They would have
gone to Hades and back for me.
The great trouble with the natives is
the missionary. Take the native in his
original state and he is a good-natured,
overgrown boy, with few vices and mony
virtues. But let a missionary once appear
and tell him to beware of a certain vice
and “it follows as the night the day"
that he will most assuredly try it at the
very earliest opportunity. The natives
know nothing of civilized vices until the
thought of them was suggested by the
whites. And once suggested the native
improved upon them in a marvelous man
ner. Take drinking as an Instance. Be
fore he was civilized the Kaffir drank his
maize beer in moderation. When the
white came to civilize him. he scon learn
ed to concoct a mixiure known as Cape
Smoke. It consists of wcod alcohol,
crude petroleum, a touch of vitriol, and
red pepper. It is a delightful mixture
and one diink is sufficient to put a white
man hors de combat. The native drinks
is with re.ish and gets "crazy” on it. So
much for civil zation.
There are narly 10,000,009 natives in
There are nearly ' 10,000.000 natives in
South Africa, and, as many of them are
well armed, a general revolt will prove a
terriblb thing. Then the while man will
have to make common cause to retain
his supremacy. ii
