FASHION'S DETECTIVE. THE CUSTODIAN OP THE WED- DOO PRESENTS AND RECEP TION RAIMENT. Tinrinir tri mutt mnnle of VPArH in Cm ever since Inspector Byr nes' accession to office several nice society people have suffered a queer sort of shock. Some believed it a hmlindrmtion. it eeemed so unreal. Others guessed at something akin to the truth. This was ineir exper ' ienca ' ' At the marriage of Mrs. Van This' daughter to the distinguisbed Mr. de That they distinctly remembered seeing a very quiet and prepossess ing gentlaa&nin full .evening cos tame, who paid littie attention to - what was going nn ia any set, but ' circulated freely about, smiling and courteous. When their minds re curred to the event they did recall that he had not been presented to them. , If they thought of it further they night hare remembered that he seemed to be an enthusiastic ad mirer of jewf Iry and brio-a-brac and spent most of his time lounging about the presents. . But there was always a definite recollection of his presence at that and kindred events. s It was only natural for them to ' notice him when they met again, . even if rood breeding prohibited a formal salutation. ' Hut none of them ever found fault with good breeding on that account For it was always in a court, or a prison or aa aawvas aMtsiA 4 Vt o 4 m annoarorl OBil ' m DWCCi kx:u Mian jv p--wA v,v am a nearly all the time he was an actor in one or the othar. ' ' More than one eminent member oi the Bar has fixed his classes a couple of times to make sura that he was not mistaken iu the person ality of the man who came in with some notorious prisoner. And var ious ladies of fashion marvelled greatly at the ill-taste of tbs nice young man they remembered when they saw him lounging about theatre doors and public places. Even dudes of distinction, who rather af fected a familiarity with the doings of the city, were profoundly aston ished to stumble upon him at the racecourse or athletic exhibition and could never make him out. That was precisely what he want ed. For the mysterious nnknown was neither a society man nor a member of the jfunrnnr durre he was simply a detective. Some of those who remembered bim where the lamps shone, where soft music floated and beauty and wealth circulated, would be startled by the information. But probably they wooFd be still more moved by the knowledge that he was one of the most needful and important of the guests. The mind of a sentimental miss could scent a romance in such an at tendant at a reception or " kettle drum. " The blunt intelligence of mankind might wonder " who was wanted, " or who was to be watched under such circumstances. But there was not a scintillation of sentiment in the detective's duty. He was there simply to keep a lookout for thieves. Not for bold burglars or cunning sneaks, or any outsiders , either. He was looking for thieves among the guests. Gentility would hold up its hands in horror at the thought But ex perience has only too well attested that the so-called kleptomaniac gen erally wears diamonds and satin slip pers and that a clever knack for ap propriating other people's effects can lurk beneath a dress suit and an immaculate bosom as readily as under blouse or velveteen frock. Inspector Byrnes knew as much, too. He remembered that the dis appearance of wedding presents was sometimes strangely frequent, and tkot IKa Dnntunli ff fOnthintr in riot ' and dressing rooms had often flitted unexpectedly and to unlikely quar ters. Of course the servants were blamed for it They always are when no explanation occurs. But a series of discoveries that created hushed-up scandals and private ex aminations in police oourU let the cat out of the bag. It was guests and they were of both sexes who had done the ap propriating. More too, it was not to many cases people who were - a to. 1 fiv million tmniilui T t ' was people who designedly tried to W invited to weddings and recep tions, who came for the express pur pose of thieving, and who in some instances worked in collusion with others outside. In Tery select cot eries this would seem impossible ; but these depredations had occurred in houses where opportunity for such - intrusion seemed so unlikely that the Inspector adopted the plan of sending a detective to any recep tion where temptations were offered to the pilferer. Nowadays the practice of having these custodians of property on hand is known to all prominent en- te trainers. This much, too, has i t J : -.1 : mon tuuuu, vuan nuuo in wiuuuu mysterious disappearances of jewel ry and costly articles has waxed quite infrequent' And that is the reason more than one detective ser geant has the swell outfit he nev er dreamed of possessing, and the curls and perfumery of fashion does not surprise them as much when they encounter them as ot yore. Of course they have odd experiences, some of them deeply tinctured with romance. A JEWEL BOX STORY. One happened last winter to be in attendance at a wedding. It was - a typical wedding of the fashionable kind. Tnere was a large gathering, a reosptio by the bride and groom - tinder great floral marriage bells in the drawing room and a later sur vey oi the wedding presents up sUtrs. 1 be detective was op stairs. He noticed there an elegantly attired lady Rasing intently at a jewel case. There was a jewel in it, of course, and a beauty of its kind ; but be faceted it received all the admiration it nailed for. When the detective lounged in, the lady floated out Later on she was back again when he chanced to be called away. He was back in a twinkling and in time enouch to notice her tip toeing out alone. He slipped inside, the jewel cast was gone. He came out again to notice her going down stairs with her wrap on and a little hand satch el by her side. She omitted to pre sent ber respects, but went to call her carriage. He made up his mind at once and offered to assist her down the steps. She took his . hand, nervously, he noticed, and with that be said courteously : and took the satchel in his hand. They had not reached the walk be fore be felt the jewel case in it he called ber carnage, and, taking out the box, handed the satchel back. "Pardon me, Madame, but you forgot to leave your little offering - behind you. Never xuind, I will nxdacsiL" This was all he uttered. She never aid a word. But she sank in the carriage seat as though she had been shot There was no publicity. But thereafter that lady's name was omitted from the card list of that house. A CLOAK ROOM EPISOCE. At a reception a detective noticed a young man hurrying away with a handsome overcoat on. Not long after he came up stairs without any. The detective kept his eye on him. As he expected, he went into the hat room and issued forth with sew nnirwl. The one slinned to the door. The other made haste and popped out of the basement Al most in the shadow of the house ran common hack among the coaches, and the young man cr-pt into it It did not move on mougo. ft stAved where it was. and present ly h was out strinoed once more. and bound up stairs for another hauL The detective let mm go ana looked for the cabby. He could not finrl him. Then he auietlv took no less than four overcoats from the coach and entered the house. . lie vnitiul in the hallwav. . Down came the youth again, freshly caparison ed. "Cold night," said the detective, saluting him, :. i -1 don't turns: so," returned me other. -- -?-.' "Well it fvnpht to be when vou need all these benjamins to your back." i - -' - Tha follow tried to slin nast him. but was caught and in custody in a twinkling. The strange part of it is that this vnuno- man. who was a clerk with a fair salary, had hired the hack, drove it himseit to tne hmiRA and made hislkrhtning chang es without a soul noticing him. His gentlemanly appearance gave him entrance without question, and the booby at the door never paid attention to his repeated exits and entrances. AN ODD MISTAKE. ' The deteptive'a nresence at these merrymakings has caused funny complications once or twice. A la dy one night, mistaking him tor one of the guests, inquired cencerning pictures and bric-a-brae, about' whirh lia pnnrtMiRlv informed her. Shortly afterward there was a theft of jewelry in her own Lome, and at her husbaud's instance that self same detective was sent there. He found her very merry and disposed til treat tha matter iocularlv. When he asked for information she only laughed at him, and be went away mystified. When her husband re turned home he was greeted with a derisive laugh. He inquired the cause. "Oh. I knew all alone that vou nut mv iewelrv awav to frighten me," she said. "When that gentle man called this afternoon to play detective, 1 saw the trick at once." hv. what do vou mean C in quired her husband. "O, pshaw 1 how could you le so stupid? I remembered him as a friend of the , a ever since the wedding there. I knew he was a friend of yours at once, and I prom ise you I was ready for him." She lout her iubilance the moment she learned who had made the mis take. How We Breathe. The rapiditv of the respiratory movements in man is about one in spiration to four heart-beats, or fif teen to twenty-five per minute; greatly varying, however, according to age, sex and circumstances. In animals of high temperature,breath ing is much ia9ter, becoming almost a tremor in birds. : In the whale, on the contrary, breathing is suspended while the animal is under tne wa ter, it being supplied with reservoirs of pure blood. When the latter is exhausted the creature comes to the surface and puffs and u blows " to obtain air and fill the reservoirs. The difference in the color of the blood of vertebrates is chiefly due to the varying amounts of oxygen in chemical combination with the hemoglobin of the red corpuscles the brightness ot color being pro portionate to the oxygen. An es sential part of the hemoglobin is iron; and it has been supposed that the change in color is due to a chem ical change from a ferrous to a ter riesalt But this simple and plau sible explanation is now denied by eminent physiologists, who admit, however, that the iron has some es sential but unknown influence. A minor cause of the darker color of the blood is the swelling of the cor puscles by the absorbtion of carbon ic acid. The corpuscles are the ox ygen carriers, seizing the oxygen in the lungs and conveying it to the tissues, where it unites with carbon hydrogen. In larger quantity, carbonic acid acts as a narcotic poison ; for on ac count of its superior attraction fcr b.T-ogoblin, it replaces and excludes the oxygen. Other gasses, as nitric oxide, have the same effect The human lungs exhale in twen ty four hours about two pounds of carbonic acid. This is the product of the' burning of nine ounces of carbon. As giving some idea of the forces within the body, it is interest ing to know that the combustion of nine ounces of carbon liberates over six million foot-pounds of energy. This is equivalent to more than one eighth of a horse-power acting con tinuously for tweuty-four hours, or it equals 1S2 horse-powers working for one minute. The Hindoo Idea of Marriage. A Hindoo has curious ideas as to the married stale. Here is a hus band's creed : . A wian, both day nigbt must keep his wife sj much in subjection that she may not be mistress of her own actions. If the wife have her own free will, not withstanding she is f a superior caste, she will go nming. A woman shall never go outof her huuse with out the coownt of her husband, and shill pay proper respect to her hus band's father, the spiritual guide, and ber guests, and shall not eat until she has served them with vit uals (if it is medicine she may take it before they eat) ; a woman shall never go to a stranger's house, and shall never stand at the door, and must never look out of the window. If a woman, following her inclina tions, goes wheresoever she choees, and does not regard the words of her master, such a woman ehosld be turned away. If a man goes on a journey, bis wife shall not . divert herself by play, nor see any public snow, nor laugh, nor dress herself with jewels or fine clothes, nor see dancing, nor hear music, nor sit at the window, or ride out, nor behold anything choice or rare ; 'but shall fasten well the house do and re main private, and shall not eat any. dainty rituals, and Bhall not view herself in a mirror ; she shall not exercise herself in any agreeable employment during the absence of her husband." A bad jury in alaw-euit perjury. How Grant Saved Us. An interesting story of General Grant's magnanimity at the close of the war, and his keen sense of honor, comes to the Time from its New York correspondent. The war was over, General Lee and his half star ved Confederates had returned to their desolate homes on their parole of honor. ..The victorious armies un der Grant and Sherman were en camped in and around Washington and Jeff Davis was in Fortress Mon roe. General Grant and Rawlins were playing a game of billiards in the National hotel and two civilians were indulging in that pastime on an opposite table. A major entered the room in a hurry and whispered to Grant The latter laid his cue on the table, saying: 'Rawlins, don't disturb the balls until I return," and hurried out ' One of the civilians said to the other: "Pay for the game and hurry out ; there is something up." In front of the hotel stood amount ed sentinel. Grant ordered the sol dier to dismount, and springing into the saddle rode up the avenue so fast as to attract attention. The first civilian questioned the soldier as to the cause but was answered with a look of surprise of one who knew nothing. On being told of the Gen eral's breakneck ride it was decided to go the War Department and learn the cause, if possible. Colonel Bar roll, of the Second regular infantry, was, disbursing officer in the quar termaster's department, and to the Colonel one of the civilians went for information. Asking him if he knew the reason of General Grant's hasty action and if he had seen the. hero of the hour around the department, Colonel Borroll answered "yes," but was surprised at anybody's know ledge of the event When told of what transpired the colonel said: Well, as you are sware of the coming of General Grant I will tell you all about it providing you promise not to repeat it ' Secretary Stanton sent for me in reference to the execution of certain orders, and while listening to the in structions General Grant came in. The Secretary greeted the General with a pleasant "Good morning." which the latter returned and said: "Mr. Secretary, I understand that you have' issued orders for the ar rest of General Lee and others,, and I desire to know if such orders have been placed in the hands of any officer for execution." "I have issued writs for the ar rest of all the prominent rebels, and officers will be dispatched on the mission soon," replied the Secre tary. "Mr. Secretary, when General Lee surrendered to me at Appomattox, I gave him my word and honor that neither he nor any of his followers would be disturbed so long as they obeyed their parole of honor. I have learned nothing to cause me to believe that any of my late adver saries have broken their promises, and have come here to make you aware of the fact, and would also suggest that those orders be cancel ed." "General Grant are you aware whom you are talking to? I am the secretary of war." Quick as flash Grant answered back : "I am General Grant Issue those orders at your peril." Then turning on his heel Grant walked out as unconcerned as if nothing had happened. "It is needless to say." continued Colonel Barroll, "that neither Lee nor any of his soldiers were arrested I was dismissed from the presence of the secretary with the remark that my services in connection with arrest of the leading rebels would be dispensed with until he took time to consider, and I now await the re sult of his decision." Like some cases in law, that de cision of the great war secretary was reserved for all time, but . whether the game of billiards was ever play ed to an end has never been definite ly known. Cost or Loaf or Bread. : Mr. Edward Atkinson, of Boston, tbe eminent statician, has sent to the Senate Committee on Labor and Education a very elaborate calcula tion showing tbe cost of a loaf of bread made at the east from the grain grown on the fields of Iowa and Dakota, anil how the cost is dis tributed. This history of the cost of a loaf of bread is a very interesting and ingenious one, and at the same time very simple. Of the value of one hundred barrels of flour, 1300 goes to the Dakota farmer, the freight to Boston will be 1197.50; the barrels will cost $45, the grind ing $50, and the commissions and cartage $40, making the total cost of the hundred barrels of Hour CGS250 baker then takes the. hundred bar rels of flour and adds $210 worth of oven-heat and yeast, and $200 worth of labor, so that when the flour goes into the f hop lor sale in the shape of three thousand loaves of bread it has cost tl,0!)2.50 an equivalent of 31 cents a pound. For this bread the baker or retail .dealer gets 7 cents a pound. That is to buy, the baker and grocer in Boston get about half the money paid for a bar rel of flour, the farmc r gets a filth and railroads one tenth, the miller, merchant and cooper, one-fourteenth. ....... Mr. Atkinson's object in this cal culation seems to have been two fold first and most important, to show the poor people of this coun-, try who live from hand to mouth that their bread costs thetn about double what jt would if they should, inako it at home ; and secondly, that uiost of the profit on a loaf of bread does not go to the farmer and to tbe railroads. The figures show that the Dakota farmer and the railroad companies pet onlv three-tenths of the price paid for a loaf of bread in Boston, and tbe baker, the grocer, the miller and the middle man get at . .

Philadelphia June 4. An esti mate has been made and furnished to leading men interested in the construction of the South Pennsyl vania Railroad which places the cost at $30,000,000.

There is a basement in eighth are., which is occupied by a plasterer as a place of busness. There is noth ing noteworthy in that fact, but. there is a peculiarity about the place which is that the ' plasterer has a sign out announcing that he moulds the heads of dead infants. Several specimens of the kind of work are displayed at the entrance of the Shop, fc. -4,.. The plasterer was found in the basement surrounded by benches, tools, ceiling ornament8,fntgmenta of cornices and half finished busts in plaster, dimly suggestive of various distinguished persons. He was ask ed if the idea of making a business of taking casts of the features of dead children was original with him, and be said that he had never heard of anybody else doing anything in that line. The people, in the neighbor hood, he added,' were inostly Irish and lived in tenement houses. Formerly no expense was too great for them so far as a funeral was con cerned, and he had happen to come in for a little share of the profits. . "One day," said the plasterer, "a man came down here and said he had just lost bis baby. . He saw an old plaster cast at the top of the steps, and it struck him that he'd have something like that to remem ber his baby by. , He insisted that I should go to his house with him and model the baby's head, and as I had a tarte for that kind of work we struck up a bargain. I made a pietty good cast if I do say it my self, and I got (10 for the job. Did you have much of that kind of work to do after that?" ."Well, this man set the. fashion, as you might say,- There are a good many people n tenement houses and the children die off pretty fast In had a good deal to do for a while and I had to hire an extra band to help in the common plastering. But after a time the people had got poor, or the casts got to be too common, or there were toq many in one fami ly, or something, and there isn't any money in it now." "So, you leave your sign out as a matter of form ?" . .-- "That's about all. . In fact, I've forgotten what it says. I guess I'll go up and take a look at it" - Action or Alcohol on tbe Heart. Dr. N. B. Richardson, of London, says he was recently able to convey a considerable amount of conviction to an intelligent scholar by a simple experiment The scholar was sing ing the praises of the "ruddy bump er," and saying he would not get through the day without it, when Dr. Richardson said to him : " Will you be good enough to feel my pulse as I 6tand here?" He did so. I said, 'count it carefully ; what does it say ?' ' Your pulse says 74.' I then sat down in a chair, and asked him to count it again. He did so, and said, 'your pulse has gone down to 70.' I then lay down on the lounge, and said, ' Will you take it again ?' He replied, ' why, it is only 04 ; what an extraordinary thing !' I then said, ' When you lie down at night that is the way nature gives your heart rest You know nothing about it, but that beating organ is resting to that extent, and if you reckon it up it is a great deal of rest, because in lying down the heart is doing ten strokes lesss a minute. Multiply that by sixty, and it is six hundred ; multiply it by eight hours and within a fraction it is five thou sand strokes different and as the heart is throwing six ounces of blood at every stroke, it makes a difference af thirty thousand ounces of lifting during the nighty. When 1 lie down at night without any alcohol, that is the rest my heart gets. But when you take your wine or grog joa do not allow that rest, for the influence of alcohol is to increase the number of strokes, and tbe result is you rise up very seedy, and unfit for the next days s work till you have taken a little moee of the ' ruddy bumper,' which you say is tbe soul oi man below." .The . prettiest iady in , Somerset remarked to a friend the other day that she knew Kemp's Balsam was a superior remedy, as it stopped her cough instantly when others bad no effect whatever.

Lifting a board near the chickens he scared a large rat away, and found the missing chickens dead and partially eaten. He found, also a nest of 13 active, healthy little rats, only a day or two old." He took them away, determin ed that they should not grow, up to kill his chickens. He disposed of four of them by feeding them to the cat, and saved the rest for some pur posfr, he did not know for what He happened 'to be speaking of the matter to a friend, when the latter suggested that , if he put the little rats into a box and put them into a rat trap the old rat would find them and come after them, and if the trap was nicely baited he could capture the ;olj rat nd thus destroy the family. He thought that a good idea and tried it The next morning he found tbe trap sprung and the old rat there in. He rushed to the tiap, satisfied with the result of his experiment Tbeoldratsawhim coin ing, and putting forth extra efforts, succeeded in escaping from the trap. Then he. looked for the little ones, thinking he would set the trap again in tbe same way,' when he discover ed that the old rat had carefully re moved the little ones to a place of safety before running any risk itself and now bad gone to jsin them.

It is that the bard,! ball-like substance of tbe eye con not be felt in the body of a dead person, as the eyeballs become soft and yield to pressure the day after death, and are softer still twenty-four hours later. On this subject it is related that Prescott, the bistorion, always entertained a peculiar dread of be ing buried alive, and lie had there fore often requested that measures should be taken to prevent all pos sibility of the horrors that might follow such an occurrence. His in junctions were obeyed. A princi pal vein was severed, so that, if life should again be awakened, it might ebb silently away without any pos sible return to consciousness. Lon don Echo.
