London Wine Tasters,

One of the out of the way modes of
getting 4 living in London is That prac-
ticed by the wine tasters of the London
docks. These persons, who are supposed
to hnv" palatcs of exquisite delicacy,
will f., ii knowledge of wines, hang
ahuH} '''' docks. where they are hired by
both Z. ,l"rs and buyers to accompany
them he vaults and give their opin-
ions ui the various wines submitted to
them for examination. Though they care
fully avoid swallowing the wines they
taste, yet their calling slowly saps their
health. and they become at an early age
physical wrecks. The sensations which
they experience in samping the wines
are of the most delicate and subtle na-
turc 1t was one Of these mon who de-
tected the flavor Of iron in pipe of wine
into which shingle nail had fallen.
The language in which they describe
these sensations Is altogether unique
full, sometimes, of the subtest illusions
and analogies. At trial in which the
quality Of Il cargo of wine was in dispute
one of these professional tasters, who
had been summoned to appear as a wit
ness, expressed the most positive convc-
ton that, as the plaintiff contended, the
wine that had been sent was totally diff
ferent from the sample.
'And how do you know that? asked
the opposing counsel.
"Oh, It is quite a different wine to my
taste. There was fine farewell flavor
about the sample which the wine sent to-
tally lacks. "-Saturday Evening Post.

Peyton. On Thursday a week ago
when he ca ME home from work he
saw the bag of wheat. About SIS
o'clock he saw the boys and they
informed him that they had sieved
the wheat. They asked him 81 for
the wheat. He did not tell Pcyton
and Cunningham that he had seen
wheat on the ground at the yellow
cars. The first intlmation he had
that the wheat was stolen was
when the police came to his house.
He aided them N making the
search. He showed Detective Jones
the bushel of wheat which he had
bought from the boys. Annie Lau-
pacher testified that the boys in
formed her mother that they had
swept it out of cars and sieved it.
After the boys went outher mother
called them back and bought the
wheat. The court said if tomatoes
had been found there then there
would be a case. 1t is a well
known fact that cars contain wheat
in that section and the case is
therefore dismissed.

$1,000 In Gold Disappears,

Charles G. Rex, of No. 8 East
Second street, claims that burglars
entered his house on Wednesday
night and stole 1000 in gold and a
gold watch. The money was kept in
a box in the second story room.
The police are puzzled over the
robbery as there were no marks
whcr the burglars are supposed to
have entered. The dust was not
disturbed from the window. Chief
Dolan says at present that the theft
will not go the books. Near where
the box was ritled was another box
containing 5000. At the time that
the place is alleged to have been
entered, Mr.. Rex and his sons
were in the saloon. This is the
second peculiar burglary that has
occurred at the place.
