"a thelr sCnoes- lHlb was precisely true
In the case Of the sixteen bombs located
hore.
There is no doubt that the makers
and mailers OF these wicked contrivances
were clever and cunning mechanically
and in the general nature OF their

Last Saturday night, date o. April 26,
sixteen small, neat parcels post packages
were rece we'd either from q mail wagon

told that little tale.
The clerk who happened to- receive
these parcels was Charles Kspian. who
had no more reason to suspect the real
nature OF sixteen packages falling under
his hand than he would have had to sus-
pect the nature of q thousand other more
or less similar packages checked of by
him daily. He scarcely more than noted
in his subconscious mind that they were
from "Glmbel Brothers," but what he did
observe and properly object to was In
sufficient postage.
These packages were all scaled with
small red, indented seals, such as can
be bought In almost any stationary
store. discs of red. gummed paper.

closed the ends OF dirty-white wrapping
paper-that Is TO say. wrapping paper

were not very efficient seals, they served

Is first class matter and must be paid

Kaplsn weighed the packages and
found that each came to six ounces
which made the necessary postage come

OF course the investigation started at

thing that the post Office inspectors, led
