Customs Officers
 Inspect Roosevelt's
 Baggage Thoroughly
Especial from United Press)

Especial from United Press)
 New York, June 18.-For an hour and a half today customs inspectors searched the baggage of the Roose- welt party at the Hamburg American docks in Hoboken, opening everything and permitting nothing to escape their inspection. Elephant guns, books up- on every imaginable subject, not to exclude Africa, a Bongo head and skin photographs of wild animals, etc, were gone over and appraised.
 There were 70 pieces of baggage. Everything went nicely until the half dozen inspectors and two appraisers came to a tin cartoon sealed. Lawrence F. Abbott, representing Roosevelt, did not know it's contents, so a porter was dispatched for a can opener and upon applying it was found that the mys- terious cartoon can contained an en- larged photograph of a charging rhino. Colonel Roosevelt as special ambassador to King Edwards fun eral, was entitled to enter this coun- try without inspection and free of GUS toms charges but he declined saying he would prefer to be treated as an ordinary citizen.

Pottery and Secrecy.


 In the royal manufactory of pottery at Meisscn, Saxony. the work was for merly carried on with the utmost se- crecy to prevent the processes from becoming known elsewhere. The es- tablishment was a complete fortress, the pertcullis of which was not raised day or night. no stranger being per- mitted to enter for any purpose what ever. Every workman, even the chief inspector, was sworn to silence. This injunction was formally repeated every month to the superior officers employ ed, while the workmen had constantly before their eyes in large letters the warning motto, "Be Secret Unto Death" It was well known that any person divulging the process would be imprisoned for life in the castle of Koenigstein. Even the king himself when he took strangers of distinction to visit the works was enjoined to se- crecy. One of the foremen, however, escaped and assisted in establishing a manufactory in Vienna, from which the secrets spread all over Germany.

Why Not Pass the PIate7

They ought to pass the plate at church weddings. It comes natural to do it in church. and to do so would add pretty and useful employment to the duties of the ushers, who always have a little spare time before the bride arrives. And, really, getting married is more expensive than ever, and, though wedding presents are ex- cellent in their way, what the young people usually need the most is cash. Instead of the list of gifts which the newspapers sometimes print we should read, 'The collection yielded $4,OOO,- 00O" That would be nice. 1t is much easier to store and care for money than plate and glass! And money al- ways fits and there is no such thing as an embarrassing duplication of dollars. Life.

The Salt Charm Failed.

Some three years before the Franco German war broke out Count Secken- dorff accompanied King William I. on his visit to Napoleon III. and was present at the celebrated dejeuner giv- en in the Pavilion de Diane at Fon- tainebleau. King William, who was sitting next the empress, was asked by her to pass the salt, and in comply ing with this request he threw little salt over his shoulder. Upon the em- press exclaiming, "Why do you do that?' the king explained that in his country it was the custom to do so when passing the salt to ward off bad luck and any chance of quarrel. The empress in a prettily turned speech at once replied, But surely there is no danger of anything interfering with our friendship" In less than three years the Germans had crossed the Rhipe.-London Spectator.

Her Diamond Necklace.


 Brown is a very careful man. He is superlatively careful. So careful is he that he has insured his insurance money.
 Now, Brown has a wife. Wives have to be given birthday presents, and on his wffe's first birthday after their marriage he gave her a beautiful dia- mond necklace. This was not as reck- less as you might think, for each stone on the necklace represented a year of Mrs. Browns life, and he let every one know that. And he arranged to give Mrs. Brown a new diamond each birthday And he let the neighbors know that too.
 He has just missed giving his wife a birthday present for the ninth success sive year.
 As to when greed will conquer pride and his wife will ask for another birth day present, we shall have to wait and see.-Pearson's.

EPWORTH LEAGUE
 IS ENTHUSIASTIC
Editor of Farmer:

EQlCOr or Edrm6r.
 as chairman of the Bridgeport Group of Epworth League want to thank you for printing articles in your good paper about the Epworth League work of this Group.
 And knowing that your paper goes into a large number of homes where no other paper is read, I think it my duty to inform you that the two re- ports concerning the rally at South port in last nights paper were mis- leading. As the item in the Strat- not many Stratfordites went down to Southport last night to attend an Ep- worth League meeting, while the rep resentation from the Stratford League was the best in several years in spite of the weather.
 But the item which I want to refer mostly to is the one in last nights Fairfield news which is as follows:
 While special cars ran last night to Southport to take delegates to the quarterly rally of the Epworth League Group. not so many people ventured cut as had been expected. While it is said the group spirit is stronger than ever, it is discovered that a good rain storm dampens all spirits. The speakers of the evening were the fol- lowing clergymen - Robert Bagnell, William B. West and William L. Douglas"
 Let me say that we had two special cars which were filled to full seating capacity of the cars, and that the church at Southport was filled with Epworth Leaguers and friends would also say that the Group spirit is better in spite of the rain than it ever was in it's history. And to prove this statement I would say that more Epworth Leaguers attended the rally at Southport on Thursday evening in the rain than attended the rally at Trinity M. E.. church of this city on April Fist on a very clear evening.
 And I am a firm believer that this rally of Thursday evening was suc- cessful in every respect and that the Group spirit is a great deal better for it.
 Trusting you will correct this item so that your readers will have the right information concerning this rally. I am
 Yours truly,
 FRANK FLORIAN
 Chairman of the Group.

 Are you Englishmen or Goths and Vandals? This is the patent ofice-a depository of the ingenuity and inven- tions of the American nation, in which the whole civilized world is interested Would you destroy it? Then let the charge pass through my body"
 And the building was spared. Twen- ty-four years afterward, however, it was destroyed by fire, together with everything in 1t.
