SMUGGLERS FEW NOW. SECRET SERVICE SO STRICT THEY MAKE SMALL PROFITS. Some Notable Recent Cun- Indig nant Frenchman mill tile Splendid ••Opera Singer’—Hoiv n Clergyman Innocently Defrauded the Gov ernment. 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 e.imc- over under a six months’ contract w.th Maurice Grau, and when the Inspcc , tors came aboard the steamer they were 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 hotel accommodations she would have Hunter Rye and Uniformity are Synonymous ■ WMNWK tHisttaert JL • -''J 'Q) Cl -‘H • Bold at all first-class Cafes.

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. Sonic TV underfill Fonts. 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. Many stories are tod of the discovery of diamonds and Jewelry congealed on the hack under medicinal plasters or in tho mouth in specially constructed sets of false teeth, each tooth being the hid ing place of a gem.

Lyons, Ga., June 4.—The 6rops have never been better than they are in this section this year. The seasons have been all that could have been desired. The oat crop is being harvested and is making a good yield. Corn and < , otton are looking well. The fruit crop will be immense, ex cept pears. The trees everywhere are loaded with fruit, but are caking the blight and the fruit is shedding. This disease is also attacking che apple orch ards and in some instances where there are old apple orchards the trees are all drying, something that never has happen ed until the pear tree was Introduced among them. t —Mount Blanc Observatory Is connect ed with the Orands-Mulets by telegraph wlces and the naked wires are permit ted to lie directly upon the surface of the glacier without any support or insulation.

The results of many tests show that the insulation was almost perfect.

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 FORTUNE IN A DOG’S CLOTHES. A Dlanjond-Stadded Collar nnil a Rare Lace Tea Gown. From the New York World.
