NEW YORK. Dec. 20.--Two men
dressed in the latest fashion, swing
ing malacca canes and with bored
expressions, entered B. Altman d
Co.'S store. at Thirty-fourth street
and Fifth avenue and asked to bo
shown to-the mems silk department
These men had been in the store
several times recently and Detective
John r. I.arkin decided to follow
then. Although they always seemed
bored with lifo and people generally
they never failed to have now
story to tell any clerk who showed
them goods
Their stories were so woll told
that clerks could not refrain from
laughing and asking the prospective
customers TO call again.
The men stopped in front of a
counter heaped with silk pajamas
and ono of them began talking 10
/ the clerk. II was not long before the
clerk was convulsod with laughter
While his partner told the very
funny yarns. Larkin says the other
man heaped his overcOat pockets full
of silk pajamas, silk socks and other
garments.
Thon he stuffed things into the
back OF his coat He returned to
the counter. The clerk was still
Laughing His companion who had
been amusing the clerk, said to him.

So the two men changed places.
and the first story-tcller went among
the counters and stuffed his coat with
silk garments while the clerk con-
tinuod to laugh at tho refreshing
stories When the second man had

The New Parcels Post Blll.

The bill for the extens sion Of the
parcels post system. .-cluding a
schedule OF rates based on zones fixed
by the radius from the point Of ship
ment introduced by Senator Bourne,
will 90 far 10 silence the objection
that the carrying Of heavier parcels
By the mails would work seriously
against the interest of the smaller
towns and cities. TIE factor OF dis
tance would still enter largely enough
into the cost Of carrying the parcel
TO give the nearby cities decided
advantage
The operation Of the system. with
the zone feature, it seems, would not
be a simple task, but the presumption
is that the committee on postomces
and postroads which has been inves-
tigating the problem for months is
assured that the difficulties attending
II may be successfully solved. OF
course an immediate and substantial
benefit Of the extension would be
cheaper and better service by the ex-
press companies.
So far from injuring the business
Of smaller cities the proposed meas
ure should furnish an incentive for
the establishment of larger and better
department stores in all parts Of the
country. The mali order houses Of
New York would probably be the
losers by the introduction of carry
ing rates for parcels which would
enable a mercantile concern In CO.
lumbia TO send parcels so or 100 miles
not only at rate about half as large
as that now prevailing but at the
same time decidedly less than the
rate between any part Of South Car
oiIna and New York. The territory
in which the Columbia merchant
sells would be 80 greatly widened
that he would be able to carry much
larger and better stocks OF goods.
Meantime, what the country awaits
with impatience is the passage Of
a parcels post extension bill so that
the great tribute now levied by the
express companies may be lowered.

The Liability of the Government.

The New Orleans Picayune points
out that express companies are often
robbed, and wants 10 know whether
the United States will be liable for
goods lost by robbery in the event
comprehensive parcels post is adopted
1t wants TO know further, in the event
the Government accepts liability, IL
claims for damages will have to be
argued before the Court OF Claims at
Washington, 10 be paid after approval
b. that Court only IL Congress con-
cludes to appropriate the necessary
money. Our contemporary points out
that though the Court OF Claims has
awarded damages in many French
Spoliation cases, Congress persistent
ly refuses to appropriate the money
wherewith to pay them.
The objection Of our contemporary
would seem to be we'll taken were il
not that the question has already aris-
en-. The Government accepts liability
for registered mail. TO the amount
OF ten dollars, and 1t is not recorded
that there is ever any difficulty in col
lectng the amount. when loss is shown
Il is not referred TO the Court OF
Claims, or 10 Congress. There may be
red tape in the department, but there
IS some common sense there also.
Again, it is easy enough to insure val
liable packages. The express compa-
MES now add extra charges for exces-
sive Valuations which is the exaction
o; an insurance charge Under the
lowe. rates obtaining in parcels post
j; would be economical for the shipper
10 insure his packages and still be saw
ing considerably. The objection of the
Picayune is bulky enough, but it has
no weight.-News and Courier.

opinion, IN Senator Tilluan: In, j, is

,-uth, 70 correct once again the
@srsg;o1s wtss:a;emcl, that Senator
T.l,man's rise was due to "a seryile
!agu--ecI.on" and that he oye-came
and expelled the "ay.stocracy" from
political domination in South Caro-
Ina.
vi T..lman and his followers, in
deed, brought the charge in 1890 tha,
"aris,ccrats" were in power in this
STATE and so d.nned it that many
South Carolrians and most OF the
world beyond our borders came to
believe it. The erroneous impression
still prevails and no amount of denial
has availed to d!ssi.ate it.
The plain truth is that the rank
and file of the Tilmanites in 1880
were socially and rac!ally same
sort Of people that the ,Jonents
were. Senator TiMman was himself
member OF a former slave-holding
FAMILY. His principal lieutenant, the
man who made his career possible

Tonight at the Auditorium will mark the first production in tins city Of John c.

"The Red Rose" is the result of the collaboration of Harry B. and Robert B. Smith and Robert Hood Bowers, and is said to give a correct portrayal of the gay student life in Paris. However, un- like most shows with a Parisian at mosphere, the performance Is said to be clean and wholesome and one you can take your wife. mother or sister to see with perfect safety The first act takes place in an artists stu dio. where the young men and young women have come from all over the 0Oi III AO oAAdy RaAhStAS nun tAAC iA1S ter Julien.
