the generous contributions or philatel-
lists. BY first return steamer He made
requisition on the Postoffice Depart
men for thousands Of each denomina-
ton of the entire list of United States
stamps, from one cent to one dollar,
including the special delivery. The
department officials We're surprised by
the size of the order and hesitated in
filling it, under the impression that
Leary had made a mistake. but there
was no cable and SO no opportunity to
discuss the matter; the order was
promptly filled. In the meantime or
ders for the stamps had continued to
arrive by the bushel. and Captain
Leary detailed a soldier to act as
philatelic clerk. and all letters were
filed awaiting the new supply. Cap
tain Leary deposited not far from $780,
900 as a result Of this transaction.
The course of the department in fill
ing this tremendous order for stamps
for which no postal demand existed,
called down upon its head the wrath
of philatelists. 1t was declared that
the surcharging of the special delivery
stamp for Guam when mails came only
once month and everybody was on
hand to await the opening of the mail
ag, was a prlma facie case of fraud
on the part of this government and
that the whole scheme was devised for
the purpose of getting money for which
no equivalent would be rendered. I'm
officially. the department retorted that
1t had filled the requisition of Captain
Leary in the ordinary course of bust
md - 4 \
in the usual way and at current rates.
However. when Leary made another
large requisition for surcharged stamps
to supply order from philatelists, the
requisition was cut down and filled
with current United States stamps
without the word Guam appended.
This action of the department had the
effect of establishing the United
States in the favor of the stamp col
lecting world, and the refusal of Gen.
eral Madden to order a series of COM
memorative stamps for the Lewis &
Clark Exposition strengthened the
good feeling.
1t is the practice of certain Central
and South American and African
countries to replenish regularly a de-
pleted treasury by issuing series of
highly colored stamps in many de-
nominations. The actual demand for
them is small, but thousands of collec-
tors buy the sets and as the stamps
never do postal duty the revenue re-
ce1ved is clear profit. When the de-
manG for a new series falls off, with
all the collectors supplied, the govern
ment will suddenly discover that GER
tain values are running low and meet
the deficit by surcharging denomina-
tons of which there is surplus. with
the figure representing the denomina-
ton exhausted. In this way PRO
visional' issue is created which, of
course. collectors must have, and bust
ness is brisk again.
Such countries as Russia, Denmark,
England, France, Germany and Nor
way and Sweden are in high favor
with philateiists because their stamps
are issued only to supply actual postal
demands. and new series are issued
only at long intervals. On the other
hand, Nicaragua, Salvador, Honduras,
Costa Rica and Colombia are in bad re-
pute.

The Seizure at the Skowhesan House

The Seizure at the Skowhesan House.
The story of Tuesdays search and
seizure at the Skowhegan House. as
later disclosed by the officers, is one Of
a carefully devised scheme to evade the
law, but one whose Ciererness was not
sufficient to stand official scrutiny.

TON" The removal of the jamb on the
other side revealed a similar closet,
with five bottles of the same brand.
The bar was wet as from recent
drinking. and on it was a pitcher OF
, svrup such as is use1 in mixing drinks.
Under the bar were seven "empties'
of various shapes and sizes. In the
