TWENTY-FIVE MEN UNDER d.
REcTIoN OF OMAHA lNsPEc-
TOR EMPLOYED,
Robbery Of Registered Mail Supposed
to Have Contained Thousands Of
Dollars Still a Mystery to the Of.
ficers-Denver Men Cut Amount
to Inconsequential Sum.

Postof1ce inspectors and secret ser.
vice men who are working with them
on the supposed theft Of three mail
pouches from the Chicago, Burlington
and Quincy fast mail train which left
Denver last Thursday night, have made
little progress in their efforts to find
the missing sacks, supposed to contain
registered letters worth hundreds of
thousands of dollars, says the Denver
Post. twenty-five men, under the di-
rection OF the Omaha chief postofice
inspector, are WORKING on the cast.
Bell is in Prison.
The theory of the Omaha postoffice
inspectors hat the theft was commit
ted by Albert E. Bell was exploded to-
day when it was learned that Bell is
still in the state prison at Jefferson
City, Mo. He was sent up from Kan
sas City last May for the robbery of a
mail pouch at Fort Scott, Kas. He
was given five years and his term will

he may not live until his term expires.
even counting the months deducted for
good behvaior.
Amount is Very Small.
Denver postofice officials and the
local inspectors do not believe that the
dobbers secured over $3.50 by the theft
Of the pouches. Their estimate is made
after a careful consideration of the
contents Of the various packages that
were sent. One of the pouches was
empty, while the other two contained
less than fifty pieces Of registered
mail, and some of it was fourth class
matter and of little Dr. no value. They
stake their regulations on this esti>
mate and believe it will be borne out
by the facts If the missing pouches
were missent and finally Turn up.
How Thief Worked.
Many believe that the thief rode the
trucks of the mail car and at some
watering station quietly opened the
door Of the car while the clerks
asleep and pulled the three sacks out
of the car door, rifed the contents and
then either burned the pouches or
threw them into some out Of the way
ravine or river where they will never
be found. Mail cars have been robbed
in this manner before and clerks are
always alert when stops are made to
allow engines to take water at out OF
the way places.

Up at the works of the Gas Engine
and Power company at Morris Heights
they are building seventy-six foot
naphtha boat for T. Adolph Molten
hauer of Brooklyn that is yacht in
every sense of the word. The use of
naptha as a motive power always sug-
gests that the craft which 1t drives
must be launch but when that boat
is seventy-six feet long and has twin
screws it surely has right to the more
pretentious title. The interior arrange
ments of the new craft, which is well
in hand, are very comfortable, the alb
scence Of coal bunkers and all the other
necessary appurtenances OF a steam
yacht giving so much more cabin room.

deck space of 10 feet. The house itself
is 9 feet inches long and is mahog-
any, handsomely paneled. The main
saloon is finished in ivory and gold.
It is IA feet inches long, with roomy
lockers and bookcases at either end.
The two engines that propel the boat
occupy a space amidships Of feet 6
inches in length. In the crews quar-
tiers there are three berths, while below
the pilothouse is a cabin fitted with two

An eating-house made Of paper has
been erected in the port Of Hamburg.
It's walls are composed Of a double
layer of paper stretched on frames and
impregnated with fire and water
proof solution. A thin wooden parti-
ton affords further protection against
the 1nclemency OF the weather. The
roofs and walls are fastened together
by means of bolts and hinges, so that
the entire structure may be rapidly
taken to pieces and put UP again. Tho
dining-goom itself measures 80 meters
by meters, and is capable of accom-
modating about $50 persons. There
are twenty-five windows and four sky
lights, and the heating is effected by
a couple OF isolated stoves. A side
erection contains the managers Offices,
kitchen, larder and dwelling-rooms.
The total cost Of the construction is
said to have amounted to 1900 marks.

cry: "Oh, my mistress, my dear, dear
mistress" but she did not appear to
know that he was near her. It was
only when her son advanced step or
two towards her that she seemed to
awaken suddenly from that death
trance of mental pain. Then she slowly
raised the hand that was free, and
waved him back from her. Her lips
moved little-she spoke:

She turned her back ON him, and bow

times, walked slowly and steadily to the
door. Stopping there, she looked back;
and then the artificial courage OF the
moment failed her. With faint, sup

fully at her side; he caught her In his

servants near the door. Help him take

The old man looked up suspiciously
from his mistress to the persons who
were assisting him to support her.
With a strange, sudden jealousy he
shook his hand at them. "Home," he
cried, "she shall go home, and will
take care of her. Away! you there-no-
