EDITOR HERALD: The kid.gIove
episode seems to be very Interest
Ing to our Postmaster, and 1 hav,
reason to believe that he Is stil
anxious to become the possessor Of
a pair Of cosmetic gloves, for yes
terday at the dinner table had the
following letter handed me. To bt
sure 1t took my appetite entirely
away; where it went to, 1 do moi
know.
MRS. l.. F. BALDY: MADAM-I
requested you to furnish me some
evidence that the kid gloves you
took away from the P0stoffice had
been mailed to your address. Have
the kindness to give me the name
and address of the party who mailed
them TO you, or such other evi.
dence as may be required to estab-
lish the fact beyond q doubt that
said gloves were delivered to the
proper owner. 1 have reason to be.
lieve that the gloves you got were
not mailed in San francisco.
am very respectfully,
L. Il. DUNKELBERGER,
Postmaster.
1t being against my principle to
write private letters to Govern.
ment officials, and having reasons
to believe the gloves were mailed
in San Francisco, did not answer,
and to-day received this:
September 21st.
MRS. l.. +. BALDY: MADAM-I
wrote you several days ago, asking
you to give me the name aud ad-
dress Of the party who sent you the
kid gloves, or furnish me some evil
dence that they were your gloves.
I requested you to furnish me such
evidence before you took the gloves
out of the Postoffice. You will
please furnish the required in
formation Immediately or return
the gloves; failing to do either pro-
ceedings will be taken against you.
Very respectfully,
l.. II. DUNKELBERdER, p. NJ.

office 10 In New York somewhere,
you know. He read the above let.
ter and said, very coolly, he
thought Dunkelberger needed
guardian appointed. Now that is
an idea, but who shall it be? Mr..
Dunkelberger wishes me to fur
nish him some evidence that the
gloves are mine. Now I'll be much
obliged If he will furnish me with
some evidence that they are not. 1
did not 60 inside the office and take
the glOves; he handed them to me
through the window, and did not
seem to doubt their being mine.
AS for giving him the name Of the
party who sent them, / have no
idea Of doing it. How do know
but what he might try to get the
agency for those cosmetics, and
win my business; the Postoffice
would be nice little stand. Or
perhaps lie wishes to order for the
official department; If SO. and
there are enough to pay for the
trouble, 1 will send for them at re.
duced rates.
Now, as for his threats, don't
scaie worth u cent, nor never did.
Whenever Mr.. Dunkelberger
makes up his mind that it IL tim to
onmmence proceeding against me,
all right. He will then get the re.
quired evidence, or If he Ia still re-
ts'ning a pair of gloves to my ad-
dress, all he has to do is TO say so.

CuFiOus Discoveries.

The old question, where do all the pins
90 TO? is not near 50 interesting as this
conumdrum: How do things get where
they are found The poems of Propertjus,
a Latin poet who lived half century be-
fore the Christian Era, were found in q
wine-cellar. The discovery was made
In the nick of time, for the mildev and
the rats had begun their destructive
work on the parchment manuscripts.
But how came these poems in that wine
cellar Did some bother, lover Of the
muse, carry them down to read during
intervals of rest, and then, overcome by
the fumes of his own wine, forget TO
carry chem away
1t is said that one of the cantos Of
Dante's Inferno was found, after be-
ing long mislaid, hidden away beneath
a window-sill. Who hid the precious
manuscript? Did he hope a reward
would be offered for its recovery?
We can understand how Luther's
Table Talk came TO be hidden in the
foundations of an old house. Pope Gre
CORY XIII ordered its suppression, and
so it became dangerous for any one TO
be found in possession of the book.
When discovered, it was "lying in a
deep obscure hole, wrapped in strong
linen cloth, which was waxed all over
with beeswax within and without" The
man who hid it was determined that the
book should beTead by somebody when
better days had come.
An oldcabinet held for time forgot
ten manuscript which the world Is glad
the author found. 1t was the first vol
ume of "Waverly." 81 had written, "
says Scott, :" the greatest part of the
first volume, and sketched other pas
sages, when mislaid the manuscript,
and only Wound it by the merest accident,
as l was .rummaging the drawer of an
old cabinet, and l took the fancy of finish.

An American photographer az Shang-
hal employed tor some time hs assistant
a Cantonese named Sing kwa, who con-
cluded that he was master az the tricks
Of the trade, and accordingly started
business on his own account He had
been instructed 10 use Mexican dollars IN
preparing q nitrate of silver, but, 10 his
great astonishment, his attempts we're
unsatisfactory in every instance. Re
turning TO his employer. he related his
experience
;'Hi yahl Befo'e time mi helpee you

ture is very different. ] do not know
why. / have been at great expense.
Nv dollars are all consumed. Now en-
treat you 10 explain to me what is swrong. }
His late employer, feeling sure that
he must have made some blunder, di-
rected Sing Kwa to try the experiment
in his presence, in order that he might
detect the mistake; but what was his
surprise 10 find the result something
very strongly resembling nitrate of cop
per. instead Of nitrate Of silver. Sing
Kwa was told that he must have been
cheated bv some one who had given him
bad dollars, which he had used in pre-
pairing his chemicals. The prompt re-
ply was: 80, .,,

Cnnfnrlnr an Eagles Nest.

Recently United States Deputy Mar
shal Dewing and a party went mp the
river 10 investigate the cutting of logs
from the public lands. On Black Lake
they discovered an immense eagles nest
in the topmost branches OF a large tree,
and began cutting the tree down. There
was young eagle in the nest, and when
the cutting commenced the parent birds
made hostile demonstrations, swooping
down upon the party. The female was
shot and killed. The wing of the male
was broken by shot, and he was cap
tured after falling in the water. He WAS
with considerable difficulty taken into
the boat, knocking one of the men in the
boat overheard bya stroke OF his wing.
The young bird was killed by the falling
of the tree. The nest was twelve feet in
diameter, and was constructed of at least
three-quarters of a cord of wood, some
of the pieces being four feet long and as
large around as n mans leg. The old
male bird measures seven feet and two
inches from tip to tip.-ShrevepOrt (La.)
