FRAUD ORDER
AGAINST 4
TIPSTER

Washington, April 1.-Two weeks ago
Frank j. Bell OF New York. who did a
large business in furnishing tips TO the
speculative public that follow the races
received a tip from the postoffice depart
ment that he would do well to discontinue
his operations; otherwise a fraud order
would be Issued against him.
He promised TO suspend operations, ac-
cording TO the report of the inspector,
but quickly forgot his promise. Conse-
quenty the fraud order was issued yes
terday.
Bell can no longer receive mail nor
can he cash the the money orders which
have poured in upon him from his
credulous customers.
The opinion OF the assistant attorney
general for the postoffice department fur
nishss much Information as To the
methods OF operating a race tipping bu-
reau, which is regarded by the depart
ment as a get-riCh-quick scheme of the
most palpable character.
The report says that Bells real name
Is J; r. Thompson Jri but that he has
]. Bell lie made a speciality OF ad-
vertising a "one-horse wire (strictly one
horse day) for $40 per week. T., His Gus
toners were thereby led 70 believe that
Bell would furnish them the name Of one
sure winner" daily.
TIP WAS 4 DEAD ONE.
Instead he sent three selections and
represented that the one which he desig-
mated as "tho best bet was the 'one
horse wire"
In addition, he undertook 10 furnish
regular daily WIRE" giving full set
OF selections on all races for 81 per day.
For this service he gave the names Of
20 or more horses which he guaranteed
as good things"
It was with Bells methods OF secur-
ing business that the postoffice officials
found fault, however. His practice, the
inspector said. was TO advertise each day
that he had tipped" his customers the
best long shot OF the day before. Bells
advertisements for a number OF days
are cited In the report and n specific
example ia given OF his advertisement OF
Feb i5 last. on that day Bell announced
TO the public in display type:
Yesterdays grand, good thing. The
Buffoon ~ 10 1, won; we'll. well. well,
guess I'm bad. The longest shot OF the
day, and | handed IL out for the heaviest
kind OF n plunge 20 win"
Now, as "A matter OF fact. the inspector
SAYS Bells grand. good thing on that
particular day was Radium Instead OF
BunfOon, and Radium was "A dead one

when given "A hearing on March G,
Bell admitted 20 tho officials that '1f he
wasn't shrewd and catchy advertiser he
couldn't sectNe customers" and when led
10 believe that the department would
take action against him, he promised
Voluntarily 20 discontinue his operations.
He was given until April 10 to Gle an
affidavit showing that he had discon-
tinued his business hut failed TO do 40.

The buccaneers.

Originally buccaneers were peaceful
English, French and Dutch settlers in
the Spanish West Indies, and they re-
ceived their name ON account of their
custom Of drying their meat, in the In
dian fashion, on buccan, or hurdle.
The Spaniards resented strongly the
intrusion of these foreigners and made
many attempts to GUST them, but the
buccaneers We're hardy set of men
and crack shots with the musket, so
they successfully resisted all the Span
iards' attacks and obstinately remained
in the islands. What 1t was that caus-
ed the buccaneers to abandon their
comparatively peaceful mode OF living
and take to piracy it is hard to say.
Possibly the constant marrying to
which they We're subjected by the
Spaniards prompted them to retaliate;
but, whatever the reason, their depre-
dations soon rendered the passage of
the Caribbean sea an undertaking of
extreme danger to merchantmen, and
the word buccaneer has come down as
synonym Cor robbery, murder and all
the vices.

A TIL Taper.


During luncheon the subject of wild
ows arose, and on this interesting topic
many original ideas were expressed.
One of the company said:
"Some widows are to be pitied; 9TH
ers, again, are to be felicitated. My ia
ther used to describe widow of the
latter sort. She lived in Maryland and
kept little village store. Her husband
was Il worthless fellow. He never
worked, and he drank great deal. A
worthless fellow, repeat, but never
theless when lie died suddenly many
persons made calls Of sympathy and
coincidence on the widow. My father
did not call, but one day, stopping ut
the store to buy some trifle or other, he
thought 1t was no more than right to
say in a feeling tone:
"'You must miss your husband a
great deal, madam
"'Well, SIR said the widow, 1T does
seem strange to come into the shop
and find something In the till.'"

'AIy friend had II fine place offered
him with an organ factory, and he ac-

ing nothing more to sell, my friend re
turned to the house well pleased with
his success and for several days sat
around smoking good cigars, while the
firm patted him on the back. One day
he came in, and the boss called him
over, saying in this fashion:

A woman in the sultan's realm when
divorced from her husband is not
treated with contumely and often mar
ries again. A husband simply says to
his wife, II have divorced you" She
leaves him, and he tells the same to
the cadi, who gives to him paper of
written enforcement. If it is the first
or second time that this has occurred
he may take her back again without
any formality ensuing, but after Il
third divorce she will be lost to him
forever. Men abuse this license and
sometimes divorce their wives for n
very small fault, like bad dinner or
a button unscwed, each knowing that
if he repents he can have his wife back
before evening. 1t is not uncommon
that a wife is divorced from five hus-
bands and lives with sixth.

Tropical Countries and Spices.
In tropical countries, between lati-
tudes % degrees south and % degrees
north of the equator. the inhabitants
use srlces with their food as we use
pepper. A certain beneficial effect is
caused to the digestion-nam slim
ulant and carninutive. But there Is n
secondary effect, which is perhaps
even more beneficial, seen in the fact
that the volatile oil passes out from
the body mostly unchanged through
various channels, but chiefly through
the lungs and skin. So that Iii the
tropics nature has provided antisep-
ties which in passing out by the lungs
and skin kill the hurtful microbes
which might be breathed in and also
prevent TO II great extent the attack
of mosquitoes. 1t is n well known fact
that insects, including mosquitoes, dis
like volatile oils and will probably not
attack an individual using spices as n
food adjunct. 1t is interesting to note
that spices grow where there is a high
rainfall combined with much heat,
conditions under which malarial intlu-
ences prevail. The author quotes vari-
