Queer Devices for Use In Warfare.

New while war is going on the pro- life brain of the inventor is busy de- vising ways in which to speedily an- nihilate the enemy. One ingenious in dividual, an Englishman, suggests mist or fog ball with which to envelop an antagonist in impenetrable dark ness. The balls are easily broken spheres, containing ammonia and acids, which, on escaping, create a very dense fog, wrapping everything near it in a haze until blown away by the wiLd He argues that this would be a most effieacious method of prevent ing the Boers from aiming at English troops. Another proposes to blind the foe by firing into their midst bullets filled with pepper-thus doing double good work, both disabling the enemy and increasing the consumption of our colonial produce.

ENGLISH HUNTER
Falls Into a Tunnel Once Used by Dick
 Turptn.

Turptn.
 London standard: While returning from run with the weII-known Highgate harriers, Thomas Henry Blake of Kingsdown road. Holloway. was suddenly missed from the pack in South Grove, Highgate. On his com panions going back in search of him it was discovered that there had been subsistence in the roadway, and that Blake had disappeared into the cavity, which was about six feet wide and fif- teen feet deep. Blake, who was seri- ously injured about the legs, was pulled cut of the hole and taken to the police station close by. Dr. G. Fetch CT, the police divisional surgeon, at- tended to his injuries, and then aI- lowed him to be taken home. The po> lice informed the local authorities of the subsistence. and in a short time MT. Blair, the surveyor and engineer of the St Pancras vestry, and other officials, were upon the scene. An examination of the cavity led to the discovery that the upper portion of subterraneoas passage had collapsed and on tracing the course ot this pas sage another was discovered. The main tunnel, which is of considerable circumference, leads on the left to the Flask tavern, in South Grove, close to St. Miehael's church, and on the right it is supposed to lead to the open fields near Kenwood, the seat of the earl of Mansfield. The Flask tavern, very old house, is popularIy supposed to have been one of the haunts of Dick Turpin, the notorious eattle-Iifter, housebreaker and highway man. The house has numerous and extensive cellars, with trapdoors lead ing from the rooms above. and close by is the stable which is said to have sheltered Black Bess. It is supposed that these subterraneous passages were constructed in order to give ready means of escape from the house in times of danger.

BLOW TO THE DIME NOVEL.
No Detective of the secret-service Bu.
 reau Disguises Himself.

No such things as disguises are used by men of the secret-service bu reau,' said Chief Wilkie of that or ganization to a Washington Star man. The boy who reads the 10-cent lit erature describing the many lightning changes and disguises made by alleged sleuths of the government and other services imagines these stories to be true, and the impressions he receives remain with him for a long time. AS matter of fact, no detective is known, and I do not know of such a thing as disguise for a seeret-serv- ice case ever worked by an operator of the bureau in which false faces or other articles of this kind have ever 6een used. l do not know of reput- able detective in any city or state who uses disguises. They are not effective, and the best-informed men in the run ming down of criminals believe that they do harm and quickly expose the man who is attempting to operate a case. The men of the seeret-serviee of the government frequently clothe themselves to suit the vicinity and the people among whom they are at work. For instance, if a man is at work in an agricultural vicinity and among people who would suspect the attire of well-dressed person. he does not wear the best clothes or linen which has been finished by a Chinaman or a steam laundry. His attire is in keep ing with his situation and circum- stances. He may let his beard grow long and become careless in keeping his clothes dusted. If he is at work in a city among Italians, for instance, he deports himself in such way as to keep from advertising himself as a l detective Of the government. If he did i not he would be unable to acquire in- formation from the class of people who were perDetrating the violations of the laws of the United States. Everything depends on the necessities of the case, but under no circumstances would we permit an operator of the bureau to bother with such cheap articles as wigs, false faces, mustaehes and the i like.

HONEST IN MOTIVE
FEARLESS IN EXPRESSION
SOUND IN PRINCIPLE

A newspaper is an educator; there
are all kinds of educators, but the man
who spends money judiciously and
literally is better able to impart his
knowledge than the man who has lit
tie or nothing to spend.
THE Sun is the highest type of a
newspaper.
The Suns reports from all parts of
the United States are unsurpassed.
THE Suns Cable Service is the finest
known; the troubles in the Philippines
and in South Africa demand compe-
tent correspondents and vast expend-
iture of money and labor in getting
the news. Whe you get The Sun you
get news and intelligent presentation
of facts with it, as well as carefully
prepared articles of editorial writer's of
highest standing. When you read a
daily paper, whose principal recon-
mendation is its cheapnsss, you get
the dregs- generally very poor dregs
at that.
