THAT LOST MAIL POUCH.
Belief that It Was Stolen Somewhere in In
diana Illinois.

diana or Illinois.
New York World.
Chief Inspector G. E. Dosser told a reporter
yesterday that the only definite announcement
he can yet make concerning the robbery referred
to above is that the pouch has been traced out
side Of New York city, so that no suspicion rests
on any of the employees in this city. sits fur
ther progress can be readily traced, continued
the inspector, ''for it was furnished with what
is known as rotary lock- These locks are
valuable contents, and then only on pouches
passing between very few of the most I'M
portant postofices in the country. This lock
has a sort of combination projecting from it in
which its number is displayed behind a glass
front. There are no keys to these locks. except
those in the few larger offices, and not single
key is in the hands of any of the postal clerks on
the trains. Hence the lock could not be legiti-
mately opened. and the instant it is tampered
with, in any way, shape or fashion, the number
in the combination changes. A record of the
bags sent out is kept in this Office. and hence.
wherever the bag was receipted for it can easily
be ascertained if Its number different and if
it had been tempered with route Thus we
can trace just howe far it went without being

employe who is no longer connected with the

registered packages ever can be, since
their value is totally unknown. The registra-

Henderson makes out petty good case, it must
be admitted, but the one fact patent to those
who have considered the matter at all is that the
Indiana, Bloomington & Western went into the
bargain with its eyes wide open. and it Is now
suffering from its own lack of prudence and fore
sight It's positions amounts simply to this: We
thought we would have good thing when we
made lease. and now that we find by bitter
experience that we have deluded ourselves. we
want to back out. The Sandusky people, of
course, have o legal right to exact the full terms
of the lease, but it seems to US that under
the circumstances it is useless to de-
mand full payment The Indiana, Bloom
ington & Western cannot pay, and the only
result of determination the part of the San
dusky to make it do so would be alike unsatis

little doubt but that an arrangement, satisfactory

ready steps are taking to bring this about, and
there are not wanting Sandusky stockholders

policy of wisdom and sound business sense. Mat

Notable Smiths.


With the death Of Mrs. Julia r. Smith
Parker, of Glastonbury, Conn, one rather re-
markable branch of the Smith family comes
TO an end. There were seven of the children
of whom two we're recently brought into more
than local notice by the resistance of the
''Smith sisters" to taxation without repre-
sentatlon. The mother of this remarkable
family was a woman skilled in astronomy
She was fine lnguist and an excellent math-
ematician. Some years after her marriage
she made an almanac for her own use, and
her acquaintance with the stars was 80 inti-
mate that on clear nights she could ALWAYS
tell the hour by their position, no matter at
what time she awOke. She was also a verse
maker OF no mean merit in the old-fashiOned
way, and some Of her efforts her more IA
nous daughters, Abby and Julia, collected
and published.
Julia Eyelina was the fourth child. Her
life was passed in the quiet but beautiful
town Of Glastonbury, on the east shore of the
Connecticut river. But she was chiefly re-
markable for the achievements of her old age
She studied Hebrew and translated the Bible
wnen near 90. At more than so she resisted
local taxation that conceded no representa-
ton. and stood up rs champion against wo-
mems alleged wrongs aad again and again
suffered mental martyrdom through the sale
OF her favorite Alderneys at the auction
block. She fought with the selectmen and
town constables, and by her sacrifices main
tanned her principles. Al "a she published
her Bible. not the King James, but the Julia
e. Smith version, and after a madenhood of
81 years married.

His So upremely, su per atively, great big hobby
is a railroad TO New York. His canes, hats
and patent-leather CATERS are positively
numberless. People who go into the hallway
of his house while he is at dinner usually con-
clude, after a brief study of the hat-rack,
that he was entertaining a vast congregation
of his friends, whereas there is no one about
but his mildly eccentric self. If he should ever
be dragged down to poverty he can subsist in
comfort during the balance of his life upon
the sales of his old clothes. he buys all his
garments in New York; has samples of the
latest patterns in cloths forwarded to him by
mail, and telegraphs his orders to his tailor,
giving as minute and elaborate ana explicit
directions as though every word did not cost

Bismarck az an Orator.
IRON the Neao York tribune.

IRON IRE Ne1O IOTE IF1ODNSs
Prince Bismarck's recent utterances in the
Prussian House of Deputies have set the Ger
man press to discussing his abilities as an ora
tor. A Hamburger CorresooRdens writer thinks
the chancellor is happiest when he speaks un-
prepared. 1t is worse when. as he speaks he
rumages among diplomatic Dapere. though he
san be notless tediuswhen he reads documents.
He Knows however, when to break the tedlum
by biting Interpolation, and in the dryest
style of-document to Introduce refreshing
arabesque of his own. Bismarck's V ice isnoC
very hexible1 comprising no great scale OF
tone; 1t does not exactly sound like wood. but
at the same line the tone is not that Of we'll
sounding metal. His mode of expression is
radically different from that Of the ordinary
Parliamentary speaker. According with his
realistic Dolitics-Working with fixed aims
and practical means-he chooses words which
appeal directly to the mind, and when
ten other speakers would elect to deal
with the abstract he makes use of words
which picture something to the minds eye.
Thence comes his liking for word pictures
and telling comparisons. His dellVeranCe
suffers from the indistinctness of his voice.
This is, perhaps not the proper way of put
ting it; be articul ates very sharply, but he
speaks uneveniy now loud, now low. He at
times fOrgets that in the Relchstag he speaks
TO large assembly and in a room Of bad
acoustic properties. Often enough he 8 eaks
as if for himself alone, quite careless as TO
whether any one, save the Minister sitting at
the right OF him or the stenOgrapher listening
intently to the left, understands a syllable of
what he says. The stenOgraphers regard Bis
marck as technically the hardest speaker
they have to deal with, and that not only on
account of his sWiftness. He is, in fact, often
exceeded in the swiftness with which he
speaks. His average speeds $50 syflabes
minute, while 800 and $50 are not the highest
number attained IN The Reichstag.

But life will find so much 10 miss,
And iOyless moments wear so long!
HAply an undrawn curtain veils
The fateful future from each eye;
But true faith never fags nor fails.
And 90 Wen hope and say good-byel
But now each instant only brings
My helpless feet more near the brink;

To straws when destined soon to sink,
Oh, have ron counted well the days
Which ere we meet mustiag or iy?
NY soul with you--my body STAYS

How shall wait until you come,
As weary women walt and weep7

And now, indeed, indeed goodbye.
