A sAREwD TRICK.
How Letters Are Examined BY Post ONCE
Thieves.

How Letters Are Examined BY Post ONCE
Thieves.
Do YOU see this letter, torn here in
the middle OF this side? What do you
suppose did it? Done by the string
that is used to tie up the bundle OF let
tiers in the mail bag? That is what a.
most everyone thinks, but it isn't the
fact. 1t is done by post Office thieves.
] got that straight from the postmaster
of large city not very far from here.
II is a shrewd trick to deceive the man
who receives the letter. He knows
that after the letters have been collect
ed at the Office they are put through
the stamping machine, which cancels
the stamp and prints the postmark at
the same time. Then they are sorted
out according TO their destination, and
all those going to the same place are
tied up in one bundle They have q
peculiar way Of tying them, used at all
post Offices. They use rather fine
string, and It is put around the bundle
twice, once around the side and once
around the end. The letters are not
all of the same size Some are longer
than others, and some are In square en-
velopes, while others are in the old
fashioned long envelopes. This being
so It follows that II the string Is drawn
tight rs it must be to hold the letters
together. some of the larger letters
viii be cut on the side or end by the
string. The post Office thieves know
this rs we'll as any one else, and 90
when they wish to find out II there Is
any money in an envelope they simply
tear it a little on the side or the end.
Almost any postmaster considers It
favor If q man getting such letter
will take it to him. They always make
an endeavor to trace such letters and
then watch II other letters coming over
the same route are torn in the same
way. You can usually tell whether
the letter was really torn BY the string
or by hand, for the string will wear
and fray the edges before It cuts into
the letter itself.-St Louis Globe Dem

The work OF reinodeling the Opera
House il nearly completed, and the
house will be ready for occupancy
early in October. The people Of Sa-
lima will certainly show their APP
probation OF the liberslity of the
Opera House Association by most
generous patronage. One would
have scarcely believed that it would
be possibly to remodel the hall SO
that 1t would be as attractive, COM
modious and well adapted to enter
tsinments as II is at present. No ex-
pense has been spared in the changes
that have been made, and the opera
chairs and scenery which are yet to
be put In have been purchased In
Chicago. The hall has now q seat
ing capacity Of seven hundred aud
fifty and the floor Is inclined suf-
ficiently to make each seat q desirable
one.
The sbsurdity Of the apprehen.
sions formerly expressed as to the
safety Of the building have been
made apparent by the changes which
have been made, and the architects
and contractors unhesitatiagly
vouch for the strength and stability
OF the structure.
The main entrance has been moved
forward toward Iron Avenue and
the stairs are wide and easy OF
ascent. AS the landing does not
control q view Of the stage It lie to be
hoped that the nuisance Of the hood
lum at the head Of the stairway
which was intolersble, will now be
abated. We hope that the manage
ment will reserve the seats on the
north side Of the upper teir ut all
first class entertainments as they APP
pear to be the most desirable In the
house A comfortable cloak room
has been arranged at the entrance to
the audience room where opportunity
will be afforded those desiring TO
leave coats, cioaks and wraps during
. proformance, or when receptions
are held In the building. The dress.
ing rooms are on the first floor and
travelling troupes will be delighted
to be saved the annoyance Of hoist
ing their baggage. The building as
remcdeled will answer all our needs
In its line for the next ten years, and
we sincerely hope that the associa.
ton will find their present expendi.

BOsTON's BEVERAGE.
Grand Army Men Eat Beans aud Hold .
Campfire in the Park.

Saturday afternoon the martial
fife and drum in the hands OF expert
performers, marched up and down
Santa Fe avenue, calling the vete-
rams and their friends together for
the Campfire at Oakdsle park. Sever
al hundred Of the veterans visited
the sylvan glades Of the resort
beyond the river. At six p. IN. the
banquet was ready. Caterer Thstch-
er was the artist who presided over
the kitchen tent, and the beans were
prepared I'm such manner as to win
the applause OF q fsstidious Boston
man who came to mock and jeer at
the Kansas bean, but who also re-
manned to gormandize on the favorite
dish OF his native city. Half dozen
long black camp kettles contained
the soup, and large pans Of the baked
article, while the coffee was made
In wash boilers. I'm the absence OF
bareback, soda crackers was q good
substitute.
As announced Dept. Commander
Mccarthy, accompanied by his adj
jutant general A. b. Campbell, were
present to do the principal part Of
the talking. Both gentlemen spoke
feelingly and to the point. The Il. A.
II. was the principal topic Of the eve
ming and the character and purposes
of the organization were fully de-
lineated.
Ii does one good to visit the vete-
rams on occasions OF this kind.
These campfires are object lessons In
comradeship, fraternity, loyalty, and
patriotism. Politics and all dis
tracing questions were left outside
the gates, and all Joined In and Wed
with each other In showing one an
other delicate attentions and tender
regard. Age is mellowing the vete-
ran, and his experience Of long years
has given him a strong conviction Of
his duty to his children. These two
qualities combined makes all oc.
casions Of the veterans assembling
together, OF patriotic inspiration,
and object lessons of of love.

Drew came after them, an open rup-
ture took place. Drew wanted to
take the cattle home, and Dorr re-
fused to let him have them until Ger.
tain damages were settled. Drew
was going to take the cattle without
q settlement, but when he attempted
to do SO, Dorr shot at him twice with
q shot gun, and drove him of the
premises without the cattle. The
complaint is assault with intent to
kill. Mohler and Milliken were at.
torDeys for the defense, while Mr..
