HAVE A DIFFICULT TASK.
Spies in the British Army Run Many
Risks and Are Ever known
TO Each Other.

One Of the most difficult tasks of the
British commanders in South Africa
is TO secure the services of Trustworthy
spies who can furnish reliable informa-
tion of the situation and movements of
the enemy. Out of every ten spies en-
ployed by the British officer command
ing a war district he is fortunate IL
one gives him truthful information.
1t is most important thing that spies
should not be known to each other.
Great care is taken by officers that
each one shall imagine that he is the
only one which is employed. 1t is very
necessary that all genuine spies should
have about their person some means of
proving themselves really to be what
they represent. For this purpose coin
of certain date, a Bible of q certain
edition, Testament with the ninth or
twentieth leaf torn out are generally
employed.
by this means a spy who was en-
pioyed by an officer in a neutral state,
making his way to the headquarters
of the army in the field, could at once
make himself known to the intelli-
gence department there. In some in
stances it is considered that a pass
word or sign should be employed, as Il
Is less compromising.

ENGLAND'S POSTAL WORK.
United States Agent Says II Far
surpaSes That of
America.

George W. Beavers, chief Of the sal
aries and allowance division of the
United States post Office department,
has completed his investigation of the
English postal system, and has gone
to Paris, where he is to institute the
American postal station at the ex-
position.
"England's postal service he said,
SIS better than that Of the United
States, in so far as London is con-
cerned. The delivery of mail in this
city, / find, is more expeditions than
in Chicago or New York, fact due
to the larger number of slerks and
carriers employed here. We need
about rs per cent. more employees to
make the American service in the
large centers of population what 1t
ought to be.
Our rural delivery, on the otheg
hand, is much better than that in
England. The post Office department
here concentrates its resources for
Londons benefits, while all the mail
for the small towns is sent to the dis
trict distributing Office; whereas, in
the United States we send all mail
direct to its destination. ! am CON-
PEELED to say that, judging from what
have seen, some American post Office
employees do as much before nine
o'clock in the morning as British en-
ployes of the same grade do all day"

A New Railroad 10 San Francisco.

The newly completed extension of
the Santa Fe through the San Joa-
Quln Valley to San Francisco was
opened for passenger business on July
l, 1900
The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
railway has heretofore possessed the
distinction Of being the only line
with It's own track and traiLs all the
way from Chicago to Los Angeles
and San Diego. San Francisco and
the Important cities OF the San Joa
quln Valley are now added TO the
vast territory served by this great
transportation system under one
management, which territory also in-
cludes large part OF the region be.
tween Denver on the north, and
Galveston on thesOuth.
Stress is laid upon single ownership
and management, which insure uni
foim excellence OF service. Overland
trains by this route do not miss con-
nection, because they run through.
The eating house and dining car ser-
vice is OF the same superior quality
throughout, under management OF
Mr.. Fred Harvey. The best equip
ment is provided. Employees are
everywhere solicltous aud courteous.
Responsibility for the comfort OF
passengers is not divided.
No other trarscOutinental route
offers so great number Of attractions
to the tourist. Among these are
mountain altitude and scenery, ex
tinct vUlcanOs, petriGed forests, pre-
historic ruins, Indian pueblOs, the
Yosemite, and the Grand Canon of
Arizona, which is the greatest scenic
wonder Of the world. Every Char
acteristic phase OF indus rial life in
the west is transverSed enroute.
the Santa Fe has long been the
favOrIte route between the east and
southern California. By virtue Cf
the same bigh grade service and un-
excelled attractions it hopes to win
equal favor with travellers to and
from San Francisco and intermediate
cities of the Golden State.
The service will cons st at first of
Pullman and tourist sleepers and
chair Cars daily. The early resump.

Word cUmes from EldOrad0 that
Mrs. Olln Castle, the young bride
whose throat Vas cut by Miss jessie
MarrsoD, couple of weeks ago, Was
slowly dying and that she would prob
ably not survive her heroic struggle
for life anOtheT night. The woman
made an ante mOrtem statement on
paper on July Atm but it was not
given out for publication. ln her
dying condition she peDned the fol-
lowing note to Miss Morrison: "The
Lord will forgive you if you ask Him.
| forgive YOU" 1t could not be
learned whether or not the note was
delivered tO Miss Morrison. Mrs.
Castle, all through her struggle for
life, maintained that she was not
going to die but that she would live
for her husband, aud the family CluDg
TO that faint hope. However, being
unable to take any nOuriShmeIt, she
grew weaker and her life is wasting
away mOmentarily. Wednesday she
was able to take the first nOurishment
since the tragedy, which consisted OF
a glass Of milk and an egg. This was
administered through stomach lube.
The woman has displayed wonderful
vitality all through the heroic strug-
gle for existence, but she realizes now
that the end is near and has called
her friends around her. She is spend
ing her last few hours in happiness
and claims that il her time has come
she is willing to die. Wednesday
and yesterday she made disposition OF
many of her little treasures and
trinkets to members Of her family and
! her numerous friends. She is unable
to talk and the bequests we're made
in writing. The ending of the young
life in so tragic a manner is SAD tO
even contemplate hut the happiest
member of the family is Mrs. Castle.
The patient passed hard night
Wednesday night but rallied some
yesterday morning. As the day ad
vaDced, however, she sank RAPIDLY
She retains consciousness remarkably
well, but her life is going away SLOWLY
by degrees. The attending physician
gave it out last night that there wa.
no possible show to save her life, that
the last ray Of hope had vanished anC
that death was expected moment
arily. NOurishment being difficult
to take, she is starving to death Mis-.
