SPYING AS A PROFESSION.
A Lucrative Business. But Freighted
With Peril.
Trom the London Naul

Erom the London ,Nal)
The word spy" has an ugly sound ow-
ing to its many unpleasant associations
yet in war times spies afford an army aid
which is as valuable as il is highly re-
munerated. One of the maxims for COM
manding officers, in book for their guild
ance written by Lord Wolseley. is that a
successful spy must be petted and made
much of. The management of spies is
very difficult. Out OF every ten employed
by the officer commanding a war district
he is fortunate If one gives him truthful
information. II is most important thing
that spies should not be known to each
other. Great care is generally taken by
officers that each spy shall imagine that
he is the only one who is employed.
1t is very necessary that all bona fide
spies should have about their persons
some means of proving themselves really
to be what they represent themselves.
For this purpose coin of certain date.
a Bible of a certain edition. a Testament
with the seventh or fifteenth leaf torn out,
are generally employed.
By their means a spy who was employed
by an officer in a neutral State making
his way to the headquarters of the army
in the field. could thus at once make him
self known TO the intelligence department
there. In some instances il is considered
that password OF sign should be en-
ployed, as il is less compromising. The
putting up of the right hand to the right
ear and then to the left ear. or some such
gesture. is sometimes employed.
The more extensive the ramifcations of
the system the better are the chances of
detection. II is very necessary that
officers of the intelligence department
should be provided with specially prepared
paper, upon which letters can be writ
ten in ink that does not become visible
until ii has been subjected to some chem
ical process. 1t is also necessary that
letter in ordinary ink should invariably
be written on the same paper containing
the information that it is required 10 keep
secret.
Although spy runs the great risk of
immediate death. if he is detected vet the
service is not without glory at times.
and ii is certainly extremely lucrative.

less promising material. The runners
consist of a handful of green freshmen

KNOCKED OUT THE REFEREE.
Cans Whips sullivan and DOnueIIy
Assaults Charley White

NEW YORK. Feb. 10.-Glove fighting re-
ceived another black eye at the Broadway
Athletic Club last night, but the officials of
the club this time were not responsible
The incident occurred in the fourteenth
round of the much talked of battle be-
tween Joe Cans. of Baltimore. and Spike
Sullivan, of Ireland. From the very start
Sullivan was completely outclassed. The
climax came when two minutes and seven
teen seconds of the fourteenth round had
elapsed. Sullivan. arising from another
knock-down, was so groggy that he could
scarcely stand. Referee Charley White in
terfered at this stage and declared Cans
the winner.
One of Sullivan's seconds. Dan Donnelly
of Boston, concluded to take matters into
his own hands. When Whites back was
turned, Donnelly dashed across the ring
and struck the referee terrific blow upon
the left eye. Donnelly's knuckles laid bare
the cheekbone and also sent White head
over-heels into a box. In jiffy rough
and-tumble fight was in progress. Police
men in uniform and in plain clothes jumped
into the ring. swinging their clubs. There
were cries of xiii him," Mob him." and
other pieces of advice which were un-
needed by the police.
The excitement continued for fully fifteen
minutes, and everybody with any degree of
fairness sympathzed with the injured
referee. Donnelly was arrested.
