Government officials, who insisted on examin-
ing all the trunks. When lol u was found that
six trunks out Of the ten were filed with dress
goods, silks, velvets, lace, &C., intended for
various fashionable ladies, with their names

One thing seems certain, the system of female
detectives, or rather sssrohers, previously
described, and which is still In operation n
spite Of its many Disadvantages, has, on the
whole, worked well for the Government.
Before this system was inaugurated Their
were many women who made Il business II
travel to Europe and return In the interest Of
large importing houses, Just to smugHie OF
their persons or in their baggage. A certain
miIiiner was wont to travel on Q smuggling

suspected women thoroughly, Is in itself
great, though insufficient check on "femal'
smuggling"

what Next?

The Board OF School Directors give notice
that they will apply to the Legislature for
power to sell the Academy property, and bor-
row SIS 900 with which TO build a new school
house Wherefore this? A couple of years
ago they got law passed, transferring this
same property to them, and authorizing them
to sell the outside school houses and appropriate
the proceeds to the remodeling of the Academy
building. Why not act on this last plan ?
Can we find a prettier or more appropriate
site that the Academy property? Can we
build better walls than those which enclose
the old building? Do We want Gwinner's
folly and an enormous debt, such as Easton's
educational interests are cursed with? Or is
there wheel within wheel to be creased or
'ring" formed to make out of the transac-
ton? Taxpayers look into this matter, be-
fore you consent to its consummation. The
borough debt is heavy enough. Do you want
to add school debt of thousands to it?
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Stroudsburg, Pa.) 1853-1911, 1874-02-05

DRoPPING into the Cabinet Ware Rooms OF
Lee & CO., a few days ago we were shown sew
eral specimens of wood seat chairs of style
they are finishing for the Spring trade and
must confess that we were agreeably surprised
at the manner in which they are gotten up
Their chairs are all home made, and the paint
ing and ornamentation displayed on them are
equal to anything of the kind we ever saw eth
er in country or city. We were still further
surprized when we learned that the painting
and ornamenting which is really artistic was
the work of our young townsman, Ed. a
Schoch, son of our neighbor of the Jefersonian
whom we have known for some time rs an ex-
Cellent typo, but never suspected of being pos
sessed of so artistic taste. We looked at a
number of the chairs and did not find spliced
seat in the whole lot. Lee & Co. have several
hundred stand of there excellent chairs on
hand finished in various styles from which
custmers can make selections. Their general
stock of Furniture, too, will be found to be un
surpassed. Judging from the quality, guam
tity, and prices, we think there is no occasion
for any one to go TO Easton or elsewhere to buy
furniture, but all can be accommodated at the
Ware Rooms of Lee & CO., with anything they
may want, and at reasonable prices. We al
ways believe it good idea to patronize hom,
enterprise.-Monroe Democrat, Feb 4.
