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 . “Ticket, pleasel”—Ohio State Jour nal Two Dear Send.

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.
