BUKK'stlon of a thrill, umsuuiIuj? In his
Inexperience thut there Is no real dan
cer lu what 1st culled with (.'renter truth
(hull color "this murveloUH feat of dar
ing." As a matter of fact, however,
the aerlnllms are lu imminent danger
of broken nocks through every work
ing moment of their "turn," which be
comes evident Indeed when It Is said
that the norvo strain cannot posHlbly
be borne through two seasons without
a long period of rest between for what
may be called nerve recuperation.
A famous gyninnst who Is the head
of a family of performers said that the
midair gymnast branch of circus work,
which appears bo easy and safe of ac
complishment, was so full of danger as
to be fought shy of by faint hearted
people, who preferred "ground work"
and smaller salaries to Its risk. Safety
lies wholly lu self possession, attention
and nice, practiced calculation of dis
tances through which to loop or turn or
throw. There uro four In this family,
and the safety of each depends, not on
ly upon the Individual, but upon the
nerve nud skill of the others. When
tho family Is In action, It becomes at
once a machine, and each member
moves and turns and even smiles with
mechanical accuracy. If one part
should fall, the whole would for the
moment be In dunger of destruction.
"Now," snld the gymnast, "we are
merely human. Wo can't nil bo perfect
lu action all the time, so from time to
tluiu the milch I no goes to pieces, but
we aro so well schooled that we soon
put It together again. When there hap
pens to be a fall us there does fre
quentlythroe hearts pretty nearly
stop beating upon our bars until the
fourth of the family rises from the net.
It wouldn't be possible to continue our
act If every one of us didn't know how
to full. That's the secret of It, and the
danger lies In the loss ft ucrvo when,
tho full takes place. Men lu our branch
seldom break legs. They break their
necks or bucks and quit tho business
once nnd for all. You've seen a full,
no doubt. Well, did you notice how the
boy doubled his logs up and got his
.face as close to his breast as he could V
If he fulled to do that, he would never
survive the fall. He'd break his log or
his back sure. It's a terrible time for
mo as the head of tho 'family' every
timo there's a fall."
The gymnast has a high full to drend.
Tho acrobat, on the other hand, has to
guard ugalnst a fall through but two or
three feet.
"There's us much danger In our work
as In any circus," snld n certain star
one of the best acrobats In tho business
and a good and trustworthy man out
of It. "In the tumbling particularly a
man Is liable to break his buck any
minute or dislocate his ankle In landing
badly. My 'family' (of six, two of
whom are boys) is so well trained that
It works perfectly. So Just now I have
an easy mind. . Last season, though, 1
had two bad accidents and had to dis
charge a man. He didn't catch my
apprentice one time, with the result
that the poor boy dislocated his shoul
der. The fellow looked at tho audience
for an Instant, and then tho trouble
came, so I lost confidence' In hhu and
let him go. In our business, you know.
' every one bus to have confidence In ev
ery ouo else perfect confidence. It
you can't get that condition, you can't
work, that's all. You cuu't keep your
nerve. Our accidents are nasty ones
too. It may bo a fall of three feet and
a broken back como from It. You can'1
tell when accidents are going to hap
pen cither. They come so unexpected
ly that they knock you out. The head
of tho 'family has to bear tho worry
though. He's responsible for his ap
prentices, and the 13 I've taught have
brought mo gray hairs pretty early in
life."
This man is thoroughly conscientious
In the training of his boys morally as
well as In their work. lie regards his
care of them as a high duty, and he
watches them In the circus ring as
carefully as a mother might. Hence
they are saved from many an accident.
He always breathes-easier, too, when
the day's work Is over. Watch as care
fully as one may, he said, the busluess
is such thut accidents are bound tq
happen.
"How can you accept an apprentice
with an easy conscience, then'" he wa
. osked.
"Well," he replied, "there's danger
wherever you go. No mutter what
your business may be. If you uro cure
loss the chuncos are that you will get
hurt. 1 tralu uiy boys and men lu at
tention and accuracy. That's the best
safeguard they can have. It's like this:
If n man throws a baseball at my head,
It Will strike and hurt me if I don't
stop It. I've got to take care, and It's
tho same In every walk of life. It Is
very dangerous work, the acrobat's,
but thou" The acrobat shrugged hU
shoulders to complete the sentence.

When It Is generally understood, ns It
generally Is not, that fully 300 ;ersoiis
make application daily In season for
passes to board Incoming ocean steam
ers from revenue cutters ifnd that not
more than 1 per cent of tho requests
ore granted. It may be understood how
valuable the treasury department con
siders those privileges. The occurrence
Is rare, but Is uovertheless legal for the
mnstor of the ship for which a pass
calls to refuse to permit tho holder to
board his ship. All revenue cutter
pusses uro Issued by the collector of
tho port and must be countersigned by
tho surveyor. Tho revenue of every
country on dutiable persons! effects
depends for Its volume on the ability
of tho customs authorities to have
them duly listed nnd taxed on arrival.
In tho event of n promiscuous granting
of cutter passes It would bp possiblo
for a certain dishonest element that Is
to bo found under every sun to meet In
coming friends dowti tho bay and sur
reptitiously bring ashore nt tho pier
valuables purchased abroad.
Tlieynrcnsury department trusts few,
a fact that has Increased Undo Sam's
revenue a grout deal, as the majority of
the boarding olllcers know. Recently
tho holder of a pass boarded a White
Star Hncr and was approached by a
passenger to whom ho was a perfect
stranger. Tho latter said:
"I understand you are connected
with so and so. I have a small pack
oiro hero that I would like to take
nshore. There Is nothing dutiable In It,
but you understand how the govern
ment piles It on. I will meet you nt
the bend of the gangway when I get
my luggage released, and I will take
the package from you."
Not only did this pass holder not take
tho package, but tho first thing he did
upon landing was to point out tho pas
senger to a member of the surveyor's
stalT, who very promptly demanded
aud received tho pockngc. It contained
Jewelry of all descriptions. That an
unauthorized porsnn may not got on
board an Incoming craft In ndvance of
the customs ofTlclnls the following Is
attached to every pass that Is Issued
for the revenue cutter:
"This permission Is understood to be
subject to the assent of tho master of
tho steamship and of the henlth olllcer
ns guardian of the public health, and
boarding Is strictly forbidden until aft
er the cuetonis otllcers are In charge,
according tntlie following extract from
tho passenger act, 1SS2:
" 'Section 0. That It shall not bo law
ful for the muster of any (such) steam
ship or other vessel not In distress aft
er tho arrival of the vessel within any
collection district of the United States
to allow any person or persons except a
pilot, officer of the customs or health
officer, agents of the vessel and consuls
to come on board of tho vessel or to
leave the vessel until tho vessel hns
been taken in charge by an olllcer of
the customs nor nfter charge so taken
without leave of such officer until all
tho passengers, with their baggage,
havo boon duly landed from tho ves
sel.' "
When the revenue cutter pass system
was originally Introduced, nobody In
tho government employ seems to know.
In the old days It was tlio custom to
meet relatives and friends buck from
an ocenu trip on the pier bonds. The
revenue cutter pass Is a simple piece of
paper In Itself, but Is the study of
many years and countless number of
practical officials. The manner In which
It Is obtained, the demands made upon
U holder, the restrictions us to Its use
nud Its composition in every way aro
the result of lunumerublo revisions of
passes that have preceded It during the
lust 20 years, and It now omits nothing
that will protect Undo Sam, as It really
should do.
4 few years ago It was possiblo for
all sorts of Idlers to gnln admission to
a pier while tho passengers of a ship
from foreign purts were landing. This
had been the practice for some years,
and the steamship gatemau had the
sole and exclusive right or deciding
who should cuter. It was supposed
and frequently discoverod lu Individual
cases thut dutiable goods were secretly
pussed to theso friends who came down
to welcome the homecomer.
As a consequence the inability to get
a revenue cutter puss did not muke
much material difference, tho dock af
fording full scope for any desired work
In a dishonest way. To protect the
purposes of the cutter pusses and to
place a further barrier arouud Illegal
practices the treasury department re
cently made a new rule that admission
to a pier during tho docking of an In
coming steumer could be obtained by
card only. This admission ticket, like
tho 'revenue cutter passes, Is not trans
ferable and must bear the nume of the
holder, the slguuture of the steamship
company and tho Indorsement or the
collector of the port. The perfection
of tho cutter pass system as to transfer
may be appreciated when it Is stated
that tho beiietlclury of the' pusii must
alllx his name to the pass on receiving
It nt tho custom house and again when
be boa -ds tho cutter st the llntftry.
This eliminates ull chance of the pass
being transferred. Transfers have
been Illegally made, but the holder, be
ing tumble to furnish the sume hIlti'ii
hire as that supplied ut the custom
house, was compelled to leave the cut
ter, anil the pass was taken up. Now

THE SECRET SERVICE THAT ONE BIO

From Yard men I'o Curloo Com
plications When Spotters t nknown
to One Another Cross Lines,
'Trobflbly the most perfect spotter
system nchleved by nny private cor
poration," says S. II. Adams In Alna
lee's, "Is that of one of the big eastern
rallronds, which Is to some extent
modeled on tlio secret service system
of some of the onstern governments,
though by no means so complex.
"So furreachlng nnd so direct, how
ever, are Its lines of communication
thnt tho president of the organization
Is himself kept constantly Informed
of tho trend of nffalrs nnd the changes
of sentiment among the employees of
every division and subdivision of the
whole railway system, nnd that with
out tho knowledge of nny other persons
but his own speclnl corps of dorks
nnd secrets rles.
"Nobody but himself knows the en
tire personnel of the wonderful service
that he has perfected. His agon fa are
drawn from every brnnch of the road's
operating staff. They are engineers,
freight brnkemen, passenger trainmen,
conductors, signalmen, yardmen, sta
tion agents, track walkers and even
division officials. Should that road
huve a strike and strikes are far less
likely to occur than they wore before
tlio present system was put Into op
erationthe president will have de
tailed warnings of It from all tho
storm centers long before the first mut
toiings find cautious utterance In the
newspnpers.
"While It also acts as a defense
against thefts by employees, this sys
tem Is Intended primarily to prepare,
so to sponk, a diary of tho disposition,
character, working efficiency nnd senti
ments toward the road of tho men who
constitute the vast human machinery
of the corporation. Tho feeling which
culminates In a general strike Is not
the result of one act alone, but a slow
growth made up of many grievances,
real or fancied.
"To keoi) track of the shifting mental
attitude of his employees Is the aim of
this rullroud president. If a certain
division superintendent hns made him
self unpopular with his subordinates.
Information to that effect comes 'by
underground wire' to the central ofilce,
and the matter Is taken under advise
ment. If the newest fireman on the
road attempts to stir up discontent by
lutlaniinatory talk, bis views soon
reach the official ear. Every leading
spirit In the employees' organization is
known to the president, who also
knows whether, lu case of trouble, the
man Is to bo reckoned upon ns a con
servative or a radical.
"Sometimes this works out tho man's
career In a manner quite Incomprehen
sible to him. For Instance, Night
Wntqhmau Brown is shifted without
cause that he can fathom from one di
vision to another. How should he
know that rumors of trouble In that di
vision have reached the presidential eui
and thnt he himself, being down In the
president's little book us n speaker of
weight aud a counselor of conserva
tive methods, has been shifted over to
net ns unconscious agent In checking a
dangerous tendency?
"Some of tho admiring coworkers of
the head of this system declare that In
two minutes' reference to his collected
funds of Information ho can unroll the
family history of the woman who
washes the windows of car No. 41144X
and tell whether, lu her estimation, he
himself is nu oppressor of tho down
trodden or a perfect gentleman.
"Where so mnny Invisible lines radi
ate from the same office It Is Inevitable
thut some of them should cross. Curi
ous complications result from contact
between spotters as unknown to each
other as they aro to those whom they
watch.
"Several years ago at a time of gen
eral labor troubles a certain railroad
got no less than five reports from Its
confidential men Informing them that
an employee who was several degrees
higher In the secret service of the road
than nny of them, had thoy but known
It, hud been muking Incendiary speech

"More than 20 years ago," said tho
senator In reminiscent mood, "1 was
doing clerical stunts at Hamilton, Nov.,
and having about as enjoyable an ex
istence as I have ever known, before
or since. Tho blue skies, the big moun
tains, the Invigorating nlr, the whole
some food nnd the Interesting peoplo
all arouud me made my life ubout as
good as life ought to be this side of
the pearly portals. My work wus not
io confining that I could not get away
on mountain wulks pretty frequently,
and one day 1 started out with my
dog for a turn up Mount Tom. Just be
yond the town. The main highway
lending Into the town from the west
pnssed along the side of this mountain
and on over a gnp into the valley be
yond. "I had a particular object In view,
and with my dog I wandered nlong up
the mountain, which was without vege
tation except a furzy thicket lu places,
nud the surface was covered with
rocks of various sizes from a footbD'J
to a haystack. After awhile, for some
thing bother to do, I began to roll tho
stones down the mountain side, nnd It
rnpldly developed Into a most exciting
sport, for tho mountain was stoop and
the rocks went down with a whoop
and a hurrah that stirred the blood
to watch them as they bounded uloug.
I never thought of tho road passing
along about 1,000 feet down tho hill,
and, as nobody happened to bo going
by, my attention was not culled to It
In that way, und I kept on.
"Naturally enough, in; success with
the smaller stones made me ambitious,
and I essayed something larger. It
was a dandy, too, a great big, rouud
bowlder thnt would hnve weighed a
ton If It weighed a pound. It was a
Job to get It started, but by pulling
the rocks from under It on the lower
side and loosening It up ull arouud I
got It going nt lust and stood back to
enjoy its progress down the mountain,
It went slowly nt first, ns If In doubt
but It struck a steep place about 50 fool
down the hill, and It leaped out like a
restive horse from tho post, and awaj
It went, bounding a dozen foot Into flit
air and Jumping over gullies und rocki
as If It were rubber. About 000 foot
down, when It was going at tremen
dous speed. It leaped 50 feet Into the
air, and I was Just going to let off a
whoop when 1 suw a 12 mulo team In
tho narrow road below nnd directly In
tho rtock of the monster.
"Tbe ter.m was drawing two wngons.
as was the custom -Ith the mountain
freighters, and it vus driven by old
Jcrr Simpson, one of the best known
ton- stem In the mountains. It simply
paralyzed mo. for I didn't see anything
but destfjctlon for everything In the
wny. There was no turning back or
whipping up to got out of the way, for
the loud was heavy and the road wus
rough and narrow. I stood speechless,
scared white, but the driver had seen
tho rock coming, and, dropping off
tho saddle mule, he broke back up the
road as hard as he could run. 1 would
have run. too. but my logs refused to
net, anil I stood fast nnd watched the
great rock go tumbling down toward
Its victims. I hadn't long to wait, of
course, and Just as I gasped at the lust
bound of the bowlder It struck nn ob
struction of some kind und Jumped
clean over the teujji and tho road and
went crashing on lis way down Into
tho ravine U.iow.
"Then I recovered my wits, and.
knowing that what I had boon doing
was entirely inexcusable. I skinned 61!
up the mountain behind the rocks nnd
disappeared, trusting to, Providence
that the old Jerry hadn't Identified me.
I slipped nroutid another way to town
nnd got in ull right without having nny
questions asked where I had been, and
that evening I went over to the post
office, which was a general loafing
pluce, and there found Jerry telling of
his wonderful escape.
" 'Denied ef I didn't think It wuz a

said, 'with somethiu ullvo In It.'
" 'Have you nuy Idea who rolled It
down?' I asked Innocently.
" 'In course I hain't. Ef I hadn't
been In sich a hurry nnd left my Win
chester In the wagon, I'd 'a' found out
mighty quick, fer I seen him run, and
he hud a dog with him.'
"I wus a little nervous, but I kept on
asking questions.
"'What did you have In your wug

" 'Dyuumlte. Four tons uv It.'
"'Good Lord!' 1 exclaimed. 'There

It w.'is after tho evening rush
hour in one of the many tint re
spectable unpretentious rcstuii-
rants of Herald Square, says the J
New York Herald, when an old
man, gray, wrinl.led and boarded
who was finishing his meal, found
himself, facing a young man and
woman, who took seats on tho
opposite side of the table from
him.
Their conversation, in quiet low
tones interested him, and he
lingered as lie sipped the dregs of
his coffee cup.
"Now, Torn," said ihe young
woniau,"we must notspend much
fur we have but little, and no tell,
iug where more is to come from
until you tind work again. Ol
course, you must huve coffee, be
cause 3'ou enjoy it so much."
"Andyou must have chocolate,"
ho answered.
"No!" she replied, "we should
not spend more than thirty cunts.
We really cannot afford it, Tom!"
"Hut we will afford it. Don't
you know that wo have been mar
ried five years to-night, and I
propose that my little bride shall
have an extra tieat to celebrate
the event."
"Hut the money, Tom?"
"I have a dollar, and half of it
shall l)e spent on this meal, aud
we will forget our troubles for a
few minutes at least. I hope for
work to-morrow."
"Tom, you are very kind, but I
fear only more disappointment
to-morrow."
"Let us not think of it now.
You shall have the chocolate, and
pie, too."
The old mau had heard every
: word as he leaned forward over
! his empty coffee cup and appear
! ed to bo almost choking while
j pretending to drink from it. He
i put down tho cup, began feeling
j iu his pockets aud showed agita
tion that attracted tho attention
! of the two opposite. Hoth looked
! at him, and he leaned forward,
j with his elbows on the table,
j "Excuse me," he said, "but I
j could not help hearing that this is
