and although the engineer Of the third

time on account Of the weight OF the
train behind him to stop. The last
two sections were the Atlantic City

The work at the delivery window Is or
the most trying character because so con-

To look over and distribute letters as
fast as one possibly can is great strain

clerks that not one-eighth OF the per-

Another curious fact is that sometimes

Curious happenings occur at the de-

For instance there is the man or woman
who. for some reason, wants 20 receive

some way by bringing an order for the

Perhaps there is hidden romance IN

for tidings from q long lost son or

In this case as in many another, how

In the first place the position is one of

ASK REBATES.
Alleged Custom Frauds Lead
TO Filing Of Many Claims.

Chicago. Aug. 1s.-As result OF the
recent exposure OF alleged frauds In the
New York customs service several of the
big wholesale dry goods firms OF Chicago
have filed claims with the board OF APP
praisers asking sums agcregating hun
dreds of thousands OF dollars as rebates
II was through the watchfulness of Chi
cago companies that the government dis
covered conspir<cy in the New York
custom house says the Chronicle. Last
May buyers for Chicago importers found
that goods bought IN Toxic and shipped
to the United states cost more than the
same articles could be bought for from
certain firms i'm New York So the Chi
cago men got together and instituted a
quiet investiga ton. They collected their
evidence and filed protests with the treas
ury department at Washington.
The protests contained disclosures that
called for immediate action and govern
ment detectives were set at work at once.
The claims the Chicago merchants have
filed with the board OF appraisers are
being considered now but official action
probably will not be taken until the In
vestigation has been finished.

One strange fact seems 10 he quite un-
noted by the chroniclers OF spiritual ana
religious development in the U7''"d
states. IL Is shat for the first time In the
worlds history woman stands as the
founder Of religious sects and cults.
From the beginning this was true. Arne
Hutchinson came TO New England W 'h
her husband IN 1854 and on shipboard de-
veloped 'new woman theological ideas
that disturbed the notions of her fellow
passengers. In Boston she was admitted
TO the church Of Wheelright and Cotton
and at once began her spiritual labors.
These she confined at first 10 her own
sex. assembling the women Of the church
and exhorting them that the Holy Spirit
dwelt In every pious believer and shone
with an inner light which was sacred
guide for all the path OF life when regu-
lated by the conscious judgments of the
mind" She preached so eloduently and
persuasivsey that she attracted both Cot
ton and Wheelright and even Sir Harry
Nane by her discourses. To these Anne
Hutchlnson's teachings appeared as the
purest, highest spirituality. But there
were others outside OF Boston who all
not regard the Holy Spirit as sufficient
guide 10 man. but considered human
laws--stiff ones at that-also necessary To
keep him In the middle OF the road. so
they objected strenuously 10 the new
teachings The more enthusiastic and
cloquent Anne became the greater cry
her opponents made till there were earth
quakes In the spiritual atmosphere of
Boston town. At length the opponents go'
the upper hand. and. while they could no.
shut on Anne Hutchinson's speech. th"l
could drive her OF where they would no.
