OPENING LETTERS.
' SOME SECRETS OF THE ENGLISH GEN-I
ERAL POSTOFFICE.
Methods l>> Which the oflli-lnh He
come A certain te<l With the Con
tentM of Siixpeeted < oni m nnieat iottw.
Private Tents U hieh Fall,
It is a somewhat remarkable fact
that the general public of England
knows very little concerning the secret
service of the general postoffiee, al
though the service is probably the most
complete of its kind in the whole world.
To the outsider the secret service is
known as the postal secret inquiry
branch, and not one in a hundred of
those in the employ of the postoffice
knows the exact workings of the secret
service, as the department has the dis
tinction of being in the charge of cer
tain permanent officials, under the di
rection of the home secretary and the
prime minister for the time being.
Once, and once only, in recent years
has a minister of the government allow
ed himself to be drawn into making a
statement which admitted that the se
crets of the postoffiee were used for po
litical purposes.
Such an admission was made in the
days of the first dynamite scare, when
an Irish member made a general charge
against the government of tampering
with the correspondence of certain Irish
men. Lord John Manners, in reply,
evaded the question in an ambiguous
manner, tut indiscreetly called atten
tion to a clause in the postoffice act
which empowers the postal authorities
to open and even confiscate any letter
or package which they might reasona
bly suspect covered some infringement
of the rules of the department.
The secret service is divided into two
distinct branches, the higher and the
lower, and the duties of the latter are
brought to the notice of the public very
frequently, as it has to do with the pros
ecution of dishonest men in the em
ploy of the postoffice. The great bulk of
the robberies committed inside the
walls of the postoffice is attempted by
the younger hands and it is for that
reason that every newcomer is occasion
ally subjected to keen watching from a
quarter that he least suspects.
Quite unknown to him, he is kept un
der the observation 'of a keen eyed
watcher, who is securely hidden from
view in a secret alcove, almost within
touch of the sorter, messenger or what
ever the employee may be. Every move
ment is noted and analyzed, and it
would take a very expert man to try on
any underhanded game and escape de
tection.
On the continent the correspondence
of private individuals is liable to the
scrutiny i f the police or other govern
ment agents, and no secret is made of
the fact; but, on the other hand, our
officials write indignant letters of de
nial and repudiation, while all the time
they are perfecting the fine art of open
ing letters without leaving any traces
of the operation.
Like most clever arts, that of opening
a letter without causing suspicion is
simplicity itself. A glance at the qual
ity of the stationery decides the opera
tor on the means to be adopted. Some
kinds of paper will bear the steaming
process without leaving any traces, and
in that event the operation is very
simple. The contents having been ex
amined, anil, if necessary, copied, they
are restored to their envelope, which is
regummed, the flap burnished with a
-
Contrary to general belief, the sealed
envelope presents no difficulty to the ex
pert. A piece of new bread, kneaded in
to a firm ball, is pressed on the seal and
the sis simile is obtained. Various other
methi ■ have been attempted in taking
the design of seals, but the cne we have
quoted has been declared to be far away
the best for the purpose, the bread be
ing clean and less liable to leave any
trace of tampering behind. This dough
matrix is hardened as soon as the seal
has been modeled, and when the con
tents of the letter have been obtained
the enveli pe is closed and resealed with
the dough mold.
When it is deemed unsafe to moisten
an envelope, it is cut open. The opera
tion is a delicate one and to any but
an export very difficult to perform prop
erly. ( hie end of the envelope is held
firmly between two flat pieces of wood,
the edge of the paper projecting about
the twentieth part of an inch. The ex
pert passes Hie back of his knife rapidly
over the end, roughening and flattening
it, while an equally quick pass with the
razorlike edge cuts the envelope open.
| When the contents are replaced, the
edges of the envelope are stuck together
with a hairline of powerful gum, sub
mitted to pressure for a few minutes,
and m> on? not in the secret would
guess what had been done.
8" long a- the flap and sal appear
intact the receiver is invariably satis
fied. Now and then suspicious corre
spondents place sand, powder, hairs or
other minute objects inside the envelope
byway of test, but this does not trou
ble the expert a little bit. He is on the
1<- kout for that kind of dodge, so is
careful to open the envelope over a
large sheet of pure whitb paper. When
these “tests” fall out, they are careful
ly eolh < ted and restored.
The officials in the detective depart
ment can tell some funny stories of
their own astuteness. When the charge
of tampering was made by the Irish
members, one of the Moderate party de
fended the government and declared
that he had satisfied himself by a series
i f infallible tests that his corresp' nd
ence was inviolate. He was blissfully
ignorant of the fact, however, that be
nevi r re, l ived a letter that was n< t
previously overhauled by the authori
ties.—London Letter.

HE KEPT THE SEAT.
lint It Wmr Worth What the Other
Man Paid For It.
A man who had not been to church
for a very long time, says a London ex
change, finally harkened to the persua
sions of his wife and decided to go. He
got the family all together, and they
started early. Arriving at the church,
there were very few people in it and
no pew openers at hand, so the man led
his family well up the aisle and took
possession of a nice pew.
Just as the service was about to be
gin a pompous looking old man came
in, walked up to the dour of the pew
and stood there, exhibiting evident sur
prise that it was occupied. The occu
pants moved over and offered him room
to sit down, but ho declined to be seat
ed. Finally the old man produced a
card and wrote upon it with a pencil-
“I pay for this pew.”
“He gave the card to the strange oc
cupant, who, had he been like most
people, would have at once got up and
left. But the intruder adjusted his
glasses and with a smile read the card.
Then he calmly wrote beneath it:
“How much do you pay a year?”
To this inquiry the pompous old gen
tleman, still standing, wrote abruptly:
“Ten pounds. ”
The stranger smiled as though ha
were pleased, looked around to compare
the pew with others, admired its nice
cushions and furnishings and wrote
back:
“I don’t blame you. It is well worth
it. "
The pompous old gentleman at that
stage collapsed into his seat.
No DeiidhentlH There.
I heard a good story that comes from
a little town in the northern part of
the state; Among the members of the
Methodist church at that place is an
old railroad conductor who has been
retired from the business for ten years
or more. During the morning service
at his church not many Sundays ago
the old railroader was called upon by
the minister to assist in taking up the
collection—one of the stewards who
usually helped in that work being ab
sent.
The retired railroader started down
the aisle with the contribution basket
and passed it around like an old hand
at the business. Everything passed oil
smoothly until he came to a good old
brother who had nodded himself fast
asleep, and just as he was about to pass
by him he was suddenly overcome by
the force of habit acquired in his rail
road days. Giving the sleeping brother
a dig on the shoulder with the basket,
he blurted out .

best sets of Scott, bound in tree calf,

The astonished bookseller looked at

There is no doubt that Mr Bryan r*
right in saying that only those who
are willing to stand rm (be Chicago
platform ought to have a part in the
writing of the next Democratic nation
al platform, but it is a question wheth
er he isn’t injuring his chances for
a renomination by appearing so much
in the public prints and pointing out
who should and who should not be re
garded as Democrats. That is a mat
ter which concerns himself, however,
audit is his privilege to write arid
talk as much as he pleases, and to
give his opinion as to who are and
who are not Democrats
The tendency of Mr. Bryan’s letter,
in which ho draws the line between
those who, in Iris opinion, are Demo
crats and those who, bethinks, are
marquerading as Democrats, is to keep
the factions of the party apart. There
is no doubt that those who are in bar- .
mony with the Chicago platform w ill
be permitted to have a hand in making
the next Democratic national print
form. There is no occasion, there
fore, for keeping the question of who
are and who are not Democrats con
stantly before the public If that
matter were dropped it is probable
that the most of the Democrats who
refused to vote the Democratic ticket
in 1896 would quietly drop into line
and vote that ticket in 1900
Mr. Bryan is placing himself, with
on intending to do so pTbbab'y, in
the position of trying to force out of
the parly all who didn’t vote for him
in the last national election He
doesn’t say that and doesn’t mean
that, but the impression is likely to
get abroad that be does mean that.
