THE SMART sMUGGLER.
Pulled the Wool Completely Over the
Eyes Of Inspectors.

1ISo VI AAARtSNVAos
The former customs Inspector, says
the New York Post, was talking Of
jewel smugglers.
"You hear lot Of the cleverness
of the treasury agents in running
these fellows down, but their clever
ness isn't a marker to that Of the fell
lows who make a business of bringing
things in. Cases Of detection are few
and far between; just think Of the
thousands of cases which are never de-
tected. Indeed, you are up against
it. when you deal with those people.
They're just as clever as you are, and
whole lot cleverer, some Of 'em.
81 remember one case which beat
us badly, although we had our eyes
wide open and though we knew all
about it. Word came from Paris that
a man we'd been suspicious of for
long time was coming over with a
handful of cut diamonds. We were
told it would be useless to search,his
clothing or his luggage for them, be-
cause he would have them under
porous plaster on his back.
$50 we laid low and waited for the
mans arrival He came as smiling as
a basket of chips, and we nailed him.
He declared he knew nothing about
Jewels; said he hadn't one in his
baggage; we could search it if we
pleased. But we didn't please; we
took him into a stateroom and told
him to undress. Then he began to
get nervous. He said he had rheu-
matism in his back, and the stripping
would be the death Of him. Finally
we came to the porous plaster. There
it was, and there were little bumps
all over its surface. We knew we had
him, and he apparently knew it, too.
When we suggested removing the
plaster, he almost wept; perhaps he
had once tried to take one of them off.
Eventually we compromised by pune
turing the little bumps on the plaster
and taking from each fine, sparkling
diamond. The man was fairly beside
himself, because the value of the
gems must have been nearly SIS, 900.
We had clear case, and we marched
the man off triumphantly.
'Next day we learned that every
one of the gems was bit of cut glass
the man had brought in fortune
in gems in his valise which we had
never opened. We also learned that
he had sent us the tip about the por-
Gus plaster"

CAN THIS DOG coUNT7
Some Remarkable Stories Told of q
Fire Department Pet.

some Remarkable OIOIleS 4Olu VI
Fire Department Pet.
Residents in the vicinity Of Olney-
vile Square, says the Providence Or.
~ Journal, have been hearing won
derful tales recently of dog that is
owned by one Of the occupants of
boarding house near the corner Of
Bough street and 0lneyville square.
Even the fremen connected with
engine company No. IA have been
convinced that the dog can count
fire alarm and start for the fire. Yet
there are some doubling persons who
will discredit the story.
Whether or not the dog is really
equal to the reputation that it has
acquired, it is an observed fact that
when the fire alarm rings (there is a
bell in that vicinity the dog will
prick up its ears and go through.mO-
tions that give every indication that
it is counting the number of the box.
When the count is finished the dog
will start at something liyelier than
a dog trot in one Of the several direc-
tions. There are not afidavits that
it always runs in the direction of the
fire, but there are some persons who
believe that even that is a fact.
Nevertheless, the dog has several
routes which it follows alternately
as the fire bell rings. Sometimes
it runs up Manton avenue. Some
times it is up Plainfeld street, and
sometimes it is down Broadway.
The animal is brindle bull dog,
and is great favorite among the fire.
men because of its apparent inter
est in the department.. Some persons
who have heard the stories have
doubted their truth and have
watched for the animal when the bell
rang, and each time that it was in
hearing Of the bell it started on race
against time.
