In 1850 the service had grown to be

SECRET SERVICE DETECTIVES IRELAND AND
FOSTER.
Most of the men received their detec.
tive training while in the employ of
railroads, express companies, police de.
partments and private detective bu-
reaus. All must be skilled in some
special way which adapts them for the
work.
One of the duties of the secret serv.
ice is caring for the president In

provision prohibiting the employment
of private detectives by any branch
of the government. Thus officers must

ed.
The agents most familiar to the pub.
lie are Foster, Gallagher, Ireland and
Craig, the man who was recently
killed. The first three were guarding
President Mckinley when he received
his death wound at Buffalo, and the
latter has been in constant attendance
on President Roosevelt during his vaca
ton.
George Foster-has been in the service
about ten years. He is about forty.
four years old and was selected for
McKinleys bodyguard because of his
great strength. Detective Ireland is a
law graduate and has had experience
as a newspaper man. He is big man
and is also possessed of great physical
strength. He was one of the first to
seize the assassin of Mckinley. De.
tective Gallagher was trained in Chi
cago in some private police work.
While these three men have been
criticised for not preventing President
McKinley's assassination, the secret
service bureau was satisfied that they
were in no way to blame
The United States is divided into
twenty-five secret service districts,
each having superintendent in charge
and the necessary assistants. The dis
tricts are arranged with reference to
the detection and suppression of coun-
terfeiting. A written report from each
man in each district is daily exacted
by the chief Of the division.

In Kansas City now employ electricity
to drive the cattle into the beef beds
instead of shouts, clubs, whips and
prods, says the New York Herald.
The application of electricity is made
by two insulated wires connected with
the light wires over the catching pen
and the knocking pens. The current
passes through stick and connects
with two brass points on the end.
"Punchers" is the name given the
sticks. There are two punchers, each
six feet long, in the catch pen and five
four feet long in the knocking pens.
The insulated wires are about twenty
feet long, thus covering distance in
the pens of about thirty feet each.
One hundred and twenty-five volts of
electricity are turned on. 1t is enough
to make sharp, singing sensation
without leaving a mark OF a bruise on
the beef. 1t Is said fifty volts would be
as effective.
The work is done in one-half the time
and with half the eXertion. The effect
on the steer of the magic touch is

hind quarters as far as he can to the
right. He cocks one ear straight ahead

Calamity Occurred In One of the
Country's Largest Mines.


COuntry's Largest Mines.
The mine at Johnstown, Pa, in
which the recent explosion occurred,
whereby many lives We're lost is one
of the largest coal mines in the United
States, according to the statement Of
officials, says the New York World
From the entrance in the hill across
the river to the one at Mill creek Is
distance of three and three-quarter
miles.
The Klondike section, in which the
explosion occurred, is about two miles
from the Mill creek entrance. The
mine is divided into large number Of
headings, levels and sections. The
sections run off to the left and right of
the headings and are known as rights
and let's by the miners.
The men who escaped are familiar
with the mine. They have spent years
working in it; otherwise they could
never have reached the surface Lights

them to find their way to the top had

ture. and Cornelius l.. Shear. assistant
pathologist, arrived in Beaumont Tex,
the other morning to make prellia-
mary tests of soil and arrangements to
start an experimental tea farm under
government supervision, says the New
Orleans Times-Democrat. DR. Duggad
stated that the government would
spend between $1,000 and $1,000 In
making the experiment in southern
Texas, and they would be followed
by the tea expert, who would make
definite arrangements.
DR.. Duggad said; 1--WE think tea will
grow in Texas, and profitable belt
may be found extending through here
and Louisiana We will make the
first experiment east of the Trinity riV-
err and will require about five acres Of
land, The government is conducting Il
very successful tea farm in South Car
DINA, and the climate is practically the
same except that it is little warmer
here. On this farm is growing a tea
which is being sold at from II to -
cents per pound, and good land will
raise from 400 to 500 pounds of tea a
year"

the country.
