TEACHING A POLICEMAN 4 LESSON

THE RESULTS OF A TOO FREE Use OF THE CLUB.
A policeman, who has been the force for long
time was slowly pacing back and forth on his beat,
when aTRlBUNg reporter joined hm.and entered into
conversation After discussing several questions the
subject OF the efficiency of tho police force Incl
dentally brought up.
=" am what you'd call an old stager in this line,'
remarked the servant OF the law with flourish of his
club and have bad plenty of opportunities of seeing
and he airing great deal know there are many who
consider the members of the police forco very inet
eent in the d7cb arge OF their duties and careless
about how they use their power but such people
usually don't know what good police force really Is
|! n robbery or murder and the criminal es-
capes, we have our incompeteney thrown up into our
faces but OF the hume reds and thousands OF arrests
that We make every week. hear little Occasionally
public thanks are extended to US, such the Mayor
gave about two weeks ago. but that Is very seldom
Now, don't want to complain but think we have
etcr police force than almost any other city III the
country and I'D like 10 see IL : recognized"
We have occasional young fellows who come on
TO the force feeling fresh and energetic and wLo use
their club little too much for their own benefit We
had such a down in the lower part Of the city,
where there are regular gangs OF ruhans always hang
ing out lie was young fellow aud fresh az the bus-
mess but he soon got tanned down. lie got all OF the
fellows set against him in week by his arrogant aud
oVerbearng WAYS. But not until he began TO use hts
club every slight occasion did the gang take any
strong action. Then they made il hot for him. They
fairly worried the life out OF the poor fellow IN less
than month. One night they congrcgated together
and determined to punish him in mild sort OF way
Each one secured rotten egg. deoayed cabbage head,
or some soft substance and he appeared they
let him have a voliey. Tho poor young man ran up
the street and halted till he reached tho station
house in most trghtiul condition. When he told his
story started after the gang but OF course they
had all disappeared"
Now call that an extreme case, but II illustrates
what I've always said. good policeman Is one that
will always persuasive rather than cocrcive
80 long he can. II dent pay TO be rough
ON the fellows when there is call tor It. They'll
resent il every tine and depend ii, get the best OF
you too That's my experience, and think its the
perience of most of the other boys of the force"

That vas a curious bequest which
the late Henry Seybert made to the
University Of Pennsylvania Of sixty
thousand dollars for the investigation
of the phenomena Of spiritualism;
and the outcome is curious. Mr.. Sey
bert requested that his frien ID, the
venerable Ihos. r.. Hazard, Of Rhode
Island. should assist at the investiga-
tions. The Univ ersity appointed a
commission to carry out the wishes
of the giyer; andsa numbero of inquiries
have been instituted, Mr. Hazard-a
devoted Spiritualist-takin an ac-
live part. But the latter gentleman
now asserts that the commission has
not gone abont the work in proper
mental frame-while outwardly OBJ
serving the proper %demeanor; and
that consequently the spirits were re-
PEELED and no results obtained, he
furthermore hints that en- this account
the seypert heirs may stand a chance
to get their money back. 1t would
be a good thing if the truth or falsity
of spiritualism conld be absolutely es-
tablished, but it would be as easy to
undertake an actual exploration Of
the moon.
