I can’t say; but I will tell yon about ft man whose method was a good dgal talked about at the time among the detectives. He was a bachelor, and well known as a ‘concealer.’ He died of heart disease, in Broome street, some years ago. Many attempts had been made to rob him, bnt without suoqpm. Thieves ran off one night with all his clothing, and ripped it to pieces, only to be disap pointed. When he died, everything was broken up to find his money. The cellar had been dog ont to the extent of three feet, the roof broken apart, and the eaves exargined to no purpose. When they were clearing ont the rubbiehj/juat alto I'arrived, some one knocked down a rickety shelf above the mantelpiece. which was covered with old letters, med- “ ‘In which direction waa he moet apA icine phials, dusty newspaper scraps. to look?’ “‘Nowhere in particular; out of-the window generally.’ '“Toward the horn f “ ‘No, tUfway. “I followed the look; it was in the line of an old, used-up pump. “ ‘Which way did he walk wheh he went out to the field?’ ‘Over to the pump, and then madeji bee line to the pond 1’ “These answers had a certain signifi cance. Men like .to have the place of concealment in sight, sad it is well known that they Will often walk over money they have buried to see that the «o<l is undisturbed. I had the pump taken np and the excavations made—no taoney. The pump was replaced. I entered the room once more and stood by the window. ‘Suddenly I saw a bat peculiar-looking mark on tl\< surveyor's point. I •‘lined it np to the pt&ppMMpured out totht exact centre of flic line. aRW^aiMn^ginp began. A two-inch steam pipe wa.' graok at a depth of four feet.

I stopped all the tearing up and cushion-picking business, to the man was 4tot a concealer, though it was sup posed by the doctors that he hod felt the atta*|c coming on and had pat the money falBQtne out-of-the-way place. Just how or fa what spot in his library he had fallen, could not be made ont. After s day’s reflection my partner and I had to conclude that he had been robbed. Two qaatiea were open to us; we oould make jyjuii arrests without say real evidepoe/$ikwsys a hateful course for a good detective to take, or we must find the exact spot where the man fell and ‘line’ np from that The doctors helped .ns here: ‘Ton had better examine the gentleman’s body/they -said. We did so, and found a long horizontal mark on the hip, and bine marks cm the knee and elbow. He had fallen sidewise over an object not over sixteen indies high, and having a narrow, rounded edge of metal, for an iron mark was found on the cloth- and other worthless rubbish. A quarter of an hour later one of the heirs, a girl of sia years, wa* found seated tm the floor in a pile m bank notes, to which she had vainly attempted to call her mother’s attention on account of their pretty pictnrea. “That ‘concealer’ was the only really' deep one I ever knew. The lady paid a high compliment to the gentleman’s acuteness when she remarked: ‘Why, no one would ever have thought of looking up there for money.’ ” SOLDIERS’ HARD-TACK.

I have found it ib the covers of old family Bibles, behind nurtats, in the bored-out legs at chain, ttfhtjy to the waUs; The Special Committee which was ap pointed some time ago by the New Hamp shire Legislature to consider the wood chuck question. mads its report As is well known, tbs woodchuck is the terror of New Hampshire lenten, who de manded early in the session that a bounty of fifteen cents each should be put by the State On their enemy. The petition waa refused. Immediately the farmers petitioned so strongly that the House was constrained to* reconsider its action oa the woodchuck question, and the special oommiUes wss raised. The report of the Committee first dis cusses the various names given to the ani mal, but the Committee state that they “cannot be led a way from woodchuck by all the savage, tribes and scientifio dudeein Christendom." A description follows in this wise: “The body, svep in very young woodchucks, is inclined to be gray—i very significant circumstance in the mind of yonr committee, when the total depravity of the animal is considered. The predatory habits of the animal make it the oommon foe of mankind, for it is a sneak-thief first, Inst, and all the time. Like thieves in all climes, the wood chuck remains securely concealed in its hole to a great part of the day. Itsouly purpose venturing! in forth during the daytime is to get f tgood lay of the land. The woodchuck devours corn, vegeta bles of all kinds, sfen pumpkins, and it jnst dotes on nice fpnss. Tour commit tee was very much impressed with the similarity existing jbetween the office holders and the woodchuck. They both prefer to live in clover. Tour commit tee does not, howffrer, regard this pe culiarity in any way as an extenuation or palliation, either to the woodchuck or for the postmasters.

Contem poraneous with th^ark, tha woodchuck has not made any giaterinl progress in it f social science, and it is now too late to attempt to retomAhe wayward sinner. “While yonr committee does not wish to advance any startling theory relative to the hibernation of the woodchuck, it begs leave to say that it has a strong im pression that it is a hibernating animal Experiments oooerining this particular feature have hem tried in various parts of the world, and $is almost the unan- I have faithfully preserved to ye'ata. * l«t * higher civilisation. ^ It cleans its ii/sbont the sise and has the appearanoh ~~ *’ an ordinary soda biscuit If you take If in yotur hand yon will find it sdmewhat heavier than an ordinary biscuit, and if gnu bite it—bnt, no; I will not let you bme it, for I wish to see how long I can keep it But if you were to reduce it to fine powder, yon would find that wqnld absorb a greater quantity of water than an equal quantity of ordinary flour. Tou would also observe that it is very hard. "Tins you may, perhaps, think is to be attributed to its great age. Bnt if yon imagine that its age is to be meas ured only by the years which have elapsed since the war, yon are greatly mistaken; for there was a flomiaan belief among tits toys that oife hard-tack had been baked taag before the nmamsnee meat of the Christian era! This opinion was based upon the fact that the letters C. were stamped on many, if not, in- all of the cracker boxes. To be sore, there were boom skeptics wboahook thoir heeds, sod mrfnUmod that Aeas mysterions lexers were the initials of the name of somVanny contractor or in spector of si$plies.

There are about seven thousand members banded together to ameliorate their condition, to shorten the hours of labor, and to increase their wages. They have improved under the operation of the society so that they are no longer run by the ram shop. They want the Government to supply .some place of refuge like Sailor’s Snug Harbor for dis abled sailors. One abuse that ahould be corrected is the overloading of ves sels, which makes voyages dangerous to the lives of seamen. The sanitary con dition of the vessels also calls to re form, The custom on the three thou sand-ton steamers is to carry six men. Many accidents occur because vessels are shorthanded. The owners depend more upon their machinery than they do cu God. Probably the vessels are well insured. If the machinery breaks the ships have not sailors tnoughtosave them. It is the same with passenger and freight vessels. Before the organisa tion the wages were s dollar a day. As to wages now the witness said: “We get $2 a day now. In a short time we will get $2.60, and to a tew days at the end of the season, $4 a day. Borne vessels we would not go on to less than ten dollars a day, because they are not seaworthy. We raise the wages j by refusing to work with those who do not belong to our organization. The mates, cooks, and captains need not be long to thaodtiety.
