THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA. . . from PARIS LETTER. our Kniilr Corrospondont. Paris. France, Sept. 3, 1900. The Japanese agricultural exhibit iltracts attention not only on account 0f its novelty, but also because of the development in this line, as in so jnany other directions, of this remark able Kas e.n peop'e. "The wonder ful transformation of the Kmpire of the Ris'nB Sun has olTereJ an example without precedent in the history of nations, of a people passing in less than thirty years lrom the most feudal 0f governments, to democratic and parliamentary forms; from a civiliza tion rusty with age to one closely re sembling our own"-says a French writer, in a recently published book on Japan. His observation is as true fihf .iL-ricultural institutions as of the other changes impressed upon the .inl organization of Japan since tMS visitor can easily trace the revolution in economic conditions of rirn tnre )V examininc, in me nan on the Champ de Mars, the maps. tihotocraphs, papers, diagrams, etc., i,irh accompany the collection of Iinanese products. The working people have especially benefitted of recent years, having acquired the right to own the soil, which for eighteen centuries had been the property of the imncrial Government or of feudal 1 seigneurs. I .man is composed, as is well known of a considerable number of islands of more or less importance, scattered from the South in a north westerly direction. Mountains cover the country and almost touch the shores everywhere; plains are rarely found and are of small extent. The soil is not very productive, and it is neces tarry to use all of the sewage of the towns and cities for fertilizing purpos es. The total size of the laud is little less than that of France, or about the same as the State of Cali fornia. This supports a population ol over 46,000,000, the native inhabi , . ... .. - 1 sion.

There are shown here cords made of the same kind of linen that is used for tine textiles; these are only tor orna mental purposes, and wear very poor ly. Cotton is alsn mil .o. I in the same manner, lute mves verv unsat isfactory results; the ropes' are very apt to break where they are tied. Ramie, or China grass, is better, and is coming into general use. Aloe fiber, obtained from the leaves of the American agave, or century plant, is popular for the reason that ropes made therefrom float on water, which I makes them very useful at sea. Ks partograss, phornium tenax, or New Zealand flax, a product of the banana tree, and cocoanut fiber are also more or less utilized in the manufacture of coia-jc. However, hemp is was contours for this class of work. A good hawser should not break until after it has been stretched more than 10 or 12 percent of its original length. The great enemy of ropes is moisture; an attempt is made to obviate its de leterious effects by immersing the ropes in tar for a certain length of time before using them. Neverthe less, a tarred rope subjected to sea water loses, in three months, 40 cent, of its power ot resistance. In one corner of the Exhibit manufacture of rope is shown, workmen with their cords surrounding them looking like nothing so much as enormous spiders. , A Freiniuro. en Letter-Robbing- SHREWD DETECTIVE WORK. tnlqa Method Knmrllmn Employed to (omprl Confessions from Mnrtlerers. per the the It has always been the policy of the Postoffice Department to keep actual money out of the unregistered mails by every device of discourage ment that ingenuity could invent. To that end the registry system and the money order system, Doth elaborate devices for making remittances, have been set in operation. The purpose of all this precaution is a public one. Its aim is to protect tints forminc about forty three and a the mails from disturbance by making quarter millions of this number. The it profitless for any thief to steal a Deonle are essentially agricultural, letter or mail bag. tor without doubt anil tice is the chief product of the when a mail bag is stolen vastly more soil.

"In cities the size of Washing ton und larger It Is a comparatively eiisy mat ter to Identify tlio corpse and connect the murder with, the riffht criminal, but In New York the anntinl number of unidentified dead Is so lnrpe that the securiiiff of evidence fixing the crime upon the right mnn Is another matter. A large proportion of the unidentified dead of the metropolis are the victims of murder, but In that great whirlpool of humanity ft score or si of tin traced murders annually don't count. "I served under former Inspector Ityrnes, and I will tell you of one or two Instances, Illustrating his peculiar methods when he started lifter a crim inal against whom there was no posi tive evidence. "A man had been murdered by be Ing thrown from a rowbont In Jamaica bay, in the outskirts of Itrooklyn. There was no clew save that he had been seen in company with four men th day previous. I!yrnes learned that these men were members of n gang, lie knew that when gangs commit a crime their leader Is usually the per petrator and always partlceps crim lnis. The lenders of New York gangs of tuughs maintain their prestige by their offenses against- the luw, and if ono shows the white feather he is 'bounced,' nnd a tough of move cour- nge takes It Is unenviable place. "This gnn had It headquarters near the diH-k yards on the Kast river near the Itrooklyn bridge. Ityrnes arrest ed the leader and six of his followers. He placed the leader In a room In the Tombs, which overlooked the court yard of tlwit gloomy historic build ing. Each day llyrnes visited him, and 'sweated' him for a confession, but the fellow's nerve was all right, and he stuck to one story that he was in a river front saloon all day on the day of the murder. Members of n gang as a rule, are loyal to each other, and especially their leader, ur.d this fellow counted on a dozen followers to swear to the truth of his story and prove an alibi. Hut Hyrnes knew hisgnme. "The suspected man was not In formed of the arrest of his follow ers. After being in confinement for several davs. Byrnes visited him nnd called his attention to the courtyard. As detective and criminal appeared at the window, one of livntes' oflieers. with one of the arrested members of the gang, entered at the side gate with the tough handcuffed to his wrist, and. walked ncross the courtyard into th building. In a few minutes a second officer appeared with another of the murderer's followers handcuffed to him, and this procession was kept up until the entire nix had been thus si lently paraded before the oulprit'a eyes. As they turned from the wln dow the pawnbroker with whom trie victim's watch hnd been pawned by the leader entered the room quietly.
