Differing From Post Office.

Kate Dalporta, precocious child
of about eleven years, was subject to
an examination by the sheriff on
thursday of last week, which develop
mail matter deposited in the package
repository of the jackson post office.
She was seen with package for mail
ing. and suspicion was aroused tnat
the contents might throw some light
on the robbery OF the jewlry from the
Zum biel residence some three weeks
ago. 1t led to sensation entirely
apart from that incident. The pack
age contained gold fob and chain
which had been mailed by Charles
Gall to Stockton to be repaired. The
child confessed that when the pack
age had been dropped in the package
receptacle, she had put her hand in
the opening and taken it out. After
opening it and discovering what it
contained, she had wrapped the box
in another paper, and addressed The
package to lady in this town, when
the authorities took hand and stop
ped the consummation of the gift
business. While owning up to this
prank, the child denied all know
ledge of the Zumbiel robbery. She
admitted other acts of petty pilfering
from neighbors. The Guild has a
mania in this direction. The parents
are anxious to have her placed in
some institution other than the
Whittier reform school. and are max
ing inquiries to that end.
Postmaster Duden, on account of
the experience lately in tampering
with the parcels and newspaper re-
pository, has made changes so that it
is impossible to reach the hand down
to the bottom of the receptacle he
has had a flap or lid made, SO that
when the Office is closed this flap is
shut, and papers or parcels dropped
therein fall to the floor inside, be-
yond reach of any tamperer. He has
reported the stealing of the package
