TO STOP NEWS FROM LEAKING.
Expert Secret Service Operator Will
Guard Presidents Private Wire.

Guard Presidents Private Wire.
Two members of the United States
secret service department arrived
here today from Washington and de-
spite every effort on their part to pre-
vent their presence being known, they
were recognized by a former member
of the service, who is now stopping at
the West hotel.
1t was learned that the object of the
secret service men is to take steps to
prevent any leakage of news as to
the official messages that will pass over
the wires to Washington, D. c., when
President Roosevelt is guest of the
Twin Cities.
The reason for the presence today of
the secret service men in this city is
due to the fact that when the late
President Mckinley was in San Fran
cisco and Mrs. Mckinley was danger
ously i'll in that city, great concern
was expressed by President Mckinley
and his party when a San Francisco
morning paper published the true
Kinley, while the official bulletins
simply stated that she was in no
alarming condition.
The former member of the secret
service department stated last night
that one of the secret service men he
had recognized was an expert tele-
graphic operator.
The reason of his presence is that
he is to look after the special wires
that will be strung from the presi-
dents private car to the main lines"
said the ex-sleuth.
when President Mckinley was in
San Francisco, he was the guest of
Henry T. Scott, the president of the
Union Iron Works. Mrs. Mckinley
was very i'll, but the doctors simply
told the newspaper men and the public
that she was suffering from nervous
prostration and there was no cause
for alarm. The fact was, however,
that Mrs. Mckinley was dangerously
i'll and President Mckinley had de-
cided to make the fact known the next
day and cancel all his gagements.
The San Francisco newspaper that
published the news created a sensa-
ton with its publication that morning.
Seven hours after it went to press and
told the public of the condition of Mrs.
Mckinley, and the cancellation of the
presidents engagements, Secretary
Cortelyou gave out the same news in
an official bulletin"
There was a great stir in the ranks
of the secret service men. 1 was de-
tailed to duty in San Francisco, and it
was not for many weeks after that we
learned how the news leaked out"
That is why two sleuths from Wash
ington are quietly working in this city,
and will do the same in ST. Paul to
prevent any enterprising newspaper
man from getting ahead of the game"
of gathering information that Presi-
dent Roosevelt may send over the
wires"

The following is the comment of a mill
taTy writer in the Daily Chronicle on the

=, 1T Is not straining language to saw that
me young of1cers of the guards, with the
exception of few who are university
men, enter his majesty's service with
tae minimum of brains required to scrape
through an examination, which for them
IS not of competitive nature. since it
IS fact the truth of which is oficiallv
eStdpiiSned, that in the recent examina :
lIon held for admission to the ROYAL
nlltary college at Sandhurst there were
ten cadetsh1ps offered for foot guards.
vet only SIX of these could be filled as
the remaining competitors failed to oh
tam the necessary marks
A year ago the ignorance of candidates
Tor the guards was still more deplorable,
seeing that ten candida ties We're offered
yet only two candidates were able to
qualify; 1t is therefore doubtful if the
general educational attainments of the
average young guardsman are of a sufi-
GENTLY high standing to enable him to
grasp in an intelligent manner the Droo
fesslonal subjects which modern REQUIRE
ments demand from every officer in the
army Possibly it is this deficiency in
brain power that is the real cause why
onncers OF from twenty to twenty-seven
years OF age are prone to indulge in nue-
rlle and 1diotic exhibitions of vulgar and
undlgnlhed hOrSeplay.''

CAREER OF HANDKERCHIEF,
1t Was Introduced in France by the
Empress Josephine

In these days when the handker-
chief is not only in the foreground of
Woman'S belongings, but also affords
her means of expressing her individ-
ual taste, 1t is odd to read of the time
when custom decreed it a thing to be
kept out OF sight and only referred to
in a whisper.
Until the reign of Napoleon 1. the
handkerchief was regarded in France
as an absolutely uncomfortable sub
Ject The word was carefully avoided
In polite conversation, and people had
much the same feeling about being
caught using a handkerchief as OBJ
ta1n3 now regarding toothpick.
The Empress Josephine was the first
woman of fashion to introduce the
handkerchief to public notice. Her
courage in the matter was stimulated
by personal need. With all her beauty
and fine bearing she had defective
teeth. So she adopted the practice of
always carrying about with her a
small and pretty handkerchief, the
raising of which to her lips from time
to time helped to tide over the embar-
raSSment.
Particularly when the empress
laughed was the Wisp of cambria and
lace mainstay. The court ladies fol-
lowed the Whim out of compliment TO
their leader, and after a time the
1io'iiuASi CIlleI came INTO favor with all
classes.
Before the beginning of the last
century the actor and actress who
made use of a handkerchief while per-
forming even the most fearful scenes
or who referred to the OBJECTIONABLE
belonging would have been considered
lacking In wit or good breeding.
A Mile. Duchesnois, however. brola
the ice of convention, and ventured to
appear on the boards with a handker-
chief carried openly in plain sight Yet
when in the course of the play She had
to refer to the tabooed article She
called 1t "a light tissue" instead at
handkerchief. TX
A few years later in one of Shake
speare's plays, translated by De Vignv
for the benefit of the French canitaI
the word handkerchief was used ont
right for the first time on the STAGE
an innovation that aroused misses and
cries of Indignation from the auditors
Gradually, however, prejudice gave waS
and both polite and professional so.
ciety came to recognize the handker-
chief, not only as a nice essential hnt
as badge of distinction, bearing tbe
embroidered crest of the owner and 10 q
sure token of his or her rank and
wealth. 4Au
