New Japanese Press Regulations.

A new law for regulating the press has
been issued by the japanese government, and
Is to continue in force for six months only
1t provides that the names and ages of editor,
publisher and printers shall be furnished
with every written application for permission
to publish a newspaper; that the applicants
must be over 20 years of age, Japanese SUBJ
jects, and shall never have been deprived Of
their civic rights; that the editor and printer
must be different persons, and must deposit
as caution money sum of between e200 and
e70, unless the paper is to be devoted wholly
to science, art, statistics or current market
prices.
If any person sends denial or contradic-
ton of any statement that has appeared in
the paper the editor must insert it in extenso,
in the same type as the original statement,
and at the head of the same column as that
in which the latter appeared. But if the
denial is more than twice as long as the orig
inal statement, the extra matter may be
charged for as an advertisement. The excep-
lions to this rule are when the wording of
the denial is offensive, or if the denial itself
Is anonymous
No newspaper is to publish an article de-
Tending an offense against the law, even
though the law is confessedly bad No Off
cial documents of any kind may be pub
lished, or even alluded to, without the con-
sent of the department concerned. The home

An Unalterable Opinion.

A good dinner is said to be powerful
factor in changing melancholy mood into a
cheerful one. That one man firmly believed
in this theory was proved by Turner, the
artist, when, dangerously ill, he sent for an
eminent physician.
"Well, doctor" said Turner, 'syou can cure
nae, if anybody can. What's the verdicts
Tall me the truth"
81 am afraid must beg you to lose no
time in any worldly arrangements you de-
sire to make"
''Wait bit" said Turner, "you have had
nothing to eat and drink yet, have you?'
"No, but that's Of no consequence"
'Yes, it is. Go down stairs, and you will
find some refreshments; don't spare it, and
then come up and see me again"
The doctor refreshed himself, and soon
returned to his patient.
Snow, them" said the latter, "what is it?
Do you still think as badly of my cases"
II grieve to say cannot alter my opin-
ion"
The artist turned his face to the wall, and
never spoke again. Later in the day, he
died.-Youth's Companion.

Catching Postofice Thieves,

Around the walls of the distributing rooms
of the postofice in this city ara imbedded
number of iron screens, which appear to be
so many hot air registers. To the unsus-
pecting and uninitiated the registers appear
to be perfectly natural objects of the archi-
lecture, and would attract no particular at
tention, but the willy robber of the mails
Knows full well that an inspector is most
likely secreted behind one of those screens
watching his every action. Behind these
screens are small closets, which are reached
through series of intricate and secret pas
sageways leading from the office of the in
spectors. If an employe is suspected keen
eyed minion of the inspectors department.
keeps continual watch until satisfied of the
guilt or innocence of the suspect. When
caught in the act the thieving employee is
brought to the inspectors quarters, searched
and then placed under bonds for appearance
before the United States commissioner, or, if
he fails to procure the necessary bonds, is
thrown into Jail to await trial The proofs
of his guilt are kept in an immense safe in
the inspectors room, to be produced as evil
dence against the accused at the trial
The preparation CT decoy letters and pack
ages in the inspectors private office is an in
teresting procedure, but it is as secret as the
movements OF the categorical Father Time.
If a business house in town has been missing
remittances sent in unregistered letters, the
inspector secures one of the printed envel-
opes of the firm, marks it so it can be identi-
fed, and sends it to distant town to be de-
posted in the mails. That particular envelope
is traced through to its destination, if it ever
reaches there, and if some unfortunate appro-
PIRATES its contents for personal use" it's all
day and several years with that unfortunate.
Other similar 'decoys" are sent, if neces-
sary, as occasion requires. The handwriting
on the various envelopes differs greatly in
size and general appearance, to suit the par
ticular case upon which the inspectors are
working. The packages which are to act as
decoys to the thieving clerk are skillfully
gotten up and very deceptive in appearance
