One day the home of GeOffroy st.
Hilaire. the famous French naturalist,
became a perfect pandemonium. Ev-
cry room was turned upside down ex-
cept the study of the master of the
house. Nine. st. Hilaire had lost a
very valuable diamond necklace, but
she instructed the servants not to men
ton the loss TO her husband, lest the
knowledge of it should disturb him in
his work. Moreover, the missing bau-
bic could not be there, inasmuch as she
rarely entered that sanctum. The
search proved in vain, but the great
savant was still left in ignorance. a
few days later at Nine. st. Hilaire's

friends sympathetically inquired after

unaffected way the great naturalist re-

Democratic Possibilities.

The democrats in congress are con.
fident that they will control the next
house and their confidence in this fact
is based upon conditions which are
plain TO the average man who takes
any interest in politics. James NJ.
Griggs, chairman of the democratic
congressional committee. is a hustler
besides a good calculator and he has
been making figures that are interest
ing. The democrats, he says. have a
reasonable hope of carrying the follow
ing districts in addition to those they
now control: Maine l, Connecticut 2.

claims are of districts in which the
democrats have more than an even
chance
The election of a governor in Ohio
and the election of a treasure in
Pennsylvania has given party leaders
great encouragement. The record
made in congress is believed will help
the democrats and the policy of the
president seems so far to have been
entirely to democratic advantages.

postmasters have written TO their rep
resentativeS saying that they are in
receipt of letters written on letter
heads OF the department asking for
confidential information regarding
their neighbors, the postmasters ask
ing their congressman as TO their duty
in the premises. The members are
usually pretty warm about the matter
and are quite free in expressing them
selves 10 that effect. The system of
espionage has been traced to the pres
ident, who contends that he has the
right 10 know what the people are do
ing and the postoffice department is
the natural source from which TO draw
his information. The impression has
been growing in Washington for some
time that, although it may be uncon-
sciously, the government has been per-
hitting the detective and secret serv-
ice idea to run riot Many see in the
development a system of espionage
that might easily attain TO such pro-
portions as to destroy the faith and
