Uncle Main Granin Few llcriuentn For I'nnaen on llie He venue Cultern • Willeli Go Out to Sleet the Htenm- nhliin From Hiironcun Porta. When It Is geiferally understood, ns It I genernlly Is not, tlint fully 800 persons j nmke application dally In senson for ! passes lo board Incoming ocean steam ers from revenue cutters ntid that mot I more thnn ’2 per cent of tho requests ore granted, It may be uudersloocl how vnlunblo the treasury department con siders these privileges. Tho occurrence is rnre, blit Is nevertheless legal for the muster of the ship for which a pass calls to refuse to permit the holder to board bis ship. All revenue cutter pusses are Issued by, tho collector of the port and must bo countersigned by tho surveyor. Tho revenue of every country on dutlnblo personal effects depends for Its volunio on the ability of the customs authorities to ltnvo them duly listed and taxed on arrival. In tho event of a promiscuous granting of cutter passes It would bo possible for a certain dishonest element that Is to be found under every sun to meet In coming friends down the bay nud sur reptitiously bring ashoro at tho pier valuables purchased abroad. Tho treasury department trusts few, a fact that has Increased Uncle Snm’s revenue a great deal* ns tho innjorlty of tho boarding ofllcers know. Recently tho bolder of a pass boarded ft White Stnr liner and was approached by n pnssongor to whom be wns n perfect stranger. The latter snkl: “I understand you nre connected with so nnd so. I have n small pnek- ago hero that I would like to take ashore. There Is nothing dutiable In It, but you understand how the govern ment piles It on. I will moot you at tho bead of tho gangway when I get my luggngo released, and I will take tho package from you.” Not only did this pnss holder not tnko tho pneknge, but the first thing he did upon landing wns to point out tho pas senger to a member of the surveyor's staff, who very promptly demanded and received the pneknge. It contained Jewelry of all descriptions. That an unauthorized person may not gut on bonrd an Incoming ernft In ndvnnco of the customs ofllclals tho followiug Is attached to every' pass tlint Is Issued for the rovenuo cutter: “This permission Is understood to bo subject to tho nssent of tlio master of the steamship and of the health otllccr ns gunrdlnn of the public health, nnd boarding Is strictly forbidden until uft- er the customs officers nro In charge, according,to the following extract from tho pnssongor act, 1882: “ ’Section 0. That It shall not bo law ful for tho master of any (such) steam ship or other vessel not In distress aft er tho arrival of the vessel within any collection district of the United States to allow any person or persons except a pilot, officer of the customs or health officer, agents of the vessel nnd consuls to come on board of the vessel or to leave the vessel until the vessel has boon taken In charge by an officer of tho customs uor after charge so taken without lenvo of such officer until nil tho pussongers, with' their baggage, have been duly landed from tho ves sel.’ ” When tho revenue cutter pnss system jvns orlginnlly introduced, nobody In tho government employ seems to know. In the old days It was the custom to moot relatives and friends back from nn ocean trip on tho pier heads. The revenue cutter pnss Is a simple piece of paper In Itself, but Is tho study of many years nnd countless uumber of practical officiate. The manner In which It Is obtained, tho demands made upon Its holder, the restrictions ns to Its use nnd its composition In every way are tho result of Innumerable revlslous of pnsses that have preceded It during tho last 20 years, and It now omits nothing that will protect Uncle Sam, ns it really should do. A few years ago It was possible for all sorts of Idlers to gain admlsslou to a pier while the passengers of a ship from foreign parts were landing. This had been the practice for some years, nnd the steamship gateman lmd the sole and exclusive right of deciding who should outer. It wns supposed nud frequently discovered in Individual cases that dutiable goods were secretly passed to these friends who came down to welcome the homecoiucr. As a eousbqueuce the iunbility to get a revenue cutter pass did not make much material difference, the dock af fording full scope for any desired work In a dishonest way. To protect the purposes of the cutter passes nnd to place n further barrier around Illegal practices the treasury department re cently made a now rule that admission to.a pier during tho docking of an in coming steamer could be obtained by card only. This admlsslou ticket, like the revenue cutter pnsses, is not trans ferable nnd must bear the name of the holder, the signature of the steamship company nud tho Indorsement of the collector of the port. The perfection of the cutter pass system ns to transfer may be appreciated when it is stated that the beneficiary of the pass must affix his uanie to the pass on receiving | It at the custom house nud again when 1 lie boards the .cutter at the Battery, ; This eliminates all chance of tho pass | being transferred. Transfers have : been Illegally made, hut the holder, be- ; Ing unable to furnish the same sigun- | ture as that supplied at the custom house, was compelled to leave the cut- I ter, nnd the pnss was taken up.—New • York Mall and Express. Going on the StnKe. It is my honest Conviction, based Upon uo little observation, that nine* tenths of tho desire to go upon the stage proceeds from vanity— 1 vanity pure and simple. What does the aver age young person know of tho require ments of the stage, of tho difficulties that beset it? Nothing, lie visits the theaters nnd sees the huudlwork of some clever dramatist presented by skilled actors with nn, case which It seems absurd for the audience to up- plaud. Of the natural aptitude, the long training, the uerva destroying re hearsals, the struggles and the heart burnings he knows nothing, of course, lie sees only that It must he « glorious thing to he In the glare of the foot lights, with line feathers and heroic or humorous speeches, the observed of all observers, with the plaudits of the multitude ringing In his ears. It looks an easy, delightful way of earning a living, a fortunes and—llko tho child and the moon—ho warns Itl There Is no royal road to success on tho stugc. It Is an exacting profes sion. No mnu, no woman, reaches success without a great deal, of hard work and muny hard knocks at the unrelenting hands of experience—no dainty taskmaster.

Disease on Stnlr Italia. “I make It a rule never to touch a stair rail, especially In an office block or a public building,” said a prominent physician of this city. “There Is no doubt In my mind that many con tagious diseases are communicated through them, and tho theory certainly has common seuso to back It. People who are In good hcnlth very seldom use tho handrail In mounting a flight of stairs, but those who are sick or weak are quito apt to need its assistance. If they happen to havo some contagious disease, especially some form of ecze ma, tho next person who comes In con tact with the rail stands nn excellent clmnco of catching It. 1 havo treated several pcoplo for skin disease In my private practice who first showed signs of tho malady on tho palms of their hands, and I am convinced that stair rails wore the source of lufectlon. “There Is a historic example, by the way, of the readiness with which cer tain forms of eczema may be trans ferred through some such nn agency as 1 suggest. During tho siege of Toulon, Napoleon,' who was then a sublieutenant of artillery, Is said to havo snatched tho swabbing rod from a clumsy gunner nud helped servo the pieco himself for several rounds.

A DUEL THAT FAILED i HONOR WAS SAVED WITHOUT THE SHEDDING OF BLOOD. Colonel Hunker Tells How the Code I Wnn Otitruved in the I’rollntjnnrlcii j nnd How a Sanguinary Outcome Whs Ilamilly Averted.
