was standing on q Broadway corner,
near the city hall, waiting for chance
tocross without frescoing the wheels of

when my eye rested on quaint old
gentleman who was standing on the
steps of banking establishment. He
was gazing around as if the scene was
new and novel to him. lie wore calm,
placid look and new ovcrcat. There
was countrificd look about him that
led me to suspect him as being from
Boston. 1t may Ic that am doing the
poor fellow an injustice. He may only
have come over from Philadelphia.

practical joke. thought the three
men were friends, and expected to see
the man who had taken the money re-

merry peal of laughter to the old
man that he ought to "set them up"
Imagine my surprise when the two men
went off hurriedly. They took the
grecnbaclls with them, but they left
the old man behind. He was very much
left. He was behind in his finances.
Approaching the old gentleman, l
asked him if he knew the two men who
had just gone off. My object WAS to
assist him in regaining his money. The
old man looked at me very suspiciously
and then he sncered at me. He smiled
sarcastically, and, opening his ponder
Gus jaws, he said:
'If you don't move right on I'll turn
you over to n policeman. Yon can't
work the confidence game on me, if
am a stranger. Oh, I've heard all about

pressed certain letters according to the
order in which they were lighted; but
the only one of their contrivanccs that

Aneas, who forrished in the time OF
Aristotle, intended for communication
between the generals of an army. 1t
consisted of two exactly similar carthcn
vessels filed with water, each provided
with cock that would discharge an
equal quantity of water in given time,
so that the whole or any part of the
contents would escape in precisely the
same period from both vessels:
On the surface of each fioated a piece
OF cork supporting an upright marked
of into divisions, each division having
certain sentence inscribed upon it,
One of the vessels was placed at each
station and when either party desired
to communicate he lighted a torch
which he held aloft until the other did

MAIL ROBBERS CAUGHT.
-Four Thieving Drivers in Philadelphia
Gagged at Last.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 28,-After nine
months hard work General Edgerton,
head Of the postal inspectors of this dis
tIict, and his subordinates have sue
ceeded In running down set Of conspir-
ators who have been Systematically rob
bing the mails for a long time.
The men under arrest are all van
drivers, and are John Hooper, James
Hirst, Charles S. Shoch and John j Dixon,
Shoch, who has been driver but two
weeks, was arrested first, and at once
signified his desire to make clean breast
of the matter and tell all he knew.
James Hirst, who is regarded as one Of
the ringleaders, also gave evidence
against his confederates. 1t is largely
on information furnished by him that
the officers are now searching for others.
These arrests are among the most i'm
portant made by the postal inspectors in
this city for years, and the operations of
the gang have never been surpassed, the
officials declare. Their system of steal
ing was simple. All mail pouches are
placed in the mail wagons to be carted
to the depots. The merchandise is placed
in what are called tie racks fastened
with string. AT the depot the drivers
would back up their wagons, get inside
and leisurely ransack the bags. Small
and valuable packages would then be
abstracted. Afterwards the spoils would
be disposed of TO 'fence."
