"Crank" Letter Writers and Their
Fool Productions.
Governmental Head at Washing-ton
, Are Made the Recipients of All
Kinds of Commanl
ontioiii. The recent threatening letters sent
to Speaker Reed call attention to the
thousands of such missives sent to puo.
lie men durinar the course of a year,
Ordinarily little attention is paid to
them, as they are usually the work of
cranks who are harmless in otner ways.
A large number of these letters are writ
ten a jokes and with the expectation or.
causing a brief sensation. J. nose sent.
to Mr. Reed were evidently the work
of some would-be practical joker, and
their contents made no impression on
the bigr man. It is asserted that they
were written by some one wno nopea
to create a little sensation and proba
bly produce a story which could be
sold to newspapers, and a libel auit
is now pending against a Washington
correspondent who charged a certain
person with the authorship of the let
ters and with motives of perpetrating
a "fake" which he might dispose of for
money.
These "fake" schemes do not work
and more than one originator of spu
rious sensations has come to grief. It
is not so many years ago that a fertile
brained young man who had an am
bition to shine as a "new journalist"
conceived the idea of sending an in
fernal machine to the late Chief Justice
Waite. lie prepared an ugly-looking
package, including a cigar box filled
with black sand, lead slugs, pieces of
brass, springs, a fuse, etc., and had it
sent to the chief justice's house.
He then visited several newspaper of
fices, offering for sale a sensational
story of how an attempt had been made
on the life of Chief Justice Waite, de
scribing the "infernal machine," its
deadly character, and all the other de
tails required to make a big sensation
al "scoop."
Unfortunately for the young man,
he tried to dispose of the story be
fore the package reached the chief jus
tice, and the inquiries made by the
newspaper correspondents to whom the
story had been offered revealed that
fact, so when the package did arrive
the young man was immediately ar
rested for having had something to do
with it. He broke down and confessed
that it was a hoax, but his practical
joke cost him a fine of $5 and led to his
retirement from journalism of any
kind.
The lesson was appreciated and that
young man is to-day a respected mem
ber of the bar in this city.
The person most frequently made the
object of threatening letters is the
president of the United States. Every
crank that imagines the country to be
going to the dogs blames the conditions
on the president, and straightway
writes to the latter, threatening all
kindH of horrible deaths if he does not
reform these conditions or resign his
high office. There are demands for
money and dire threats as to what fate
will befall the president if he does not
respond,
These letters never reach the presi
dent, and lie is never aware of the aw
ful doom that overhangs him in the
imagination of some flighty people in
this country. This correspondence is
usually turned over to the secret ser
vice bureau and an effort made to dis
cover the writers, but usually without
success. The letters are written in
disguised hands and on common note
paper, which cannot be traced to the
owner. When, however, a series of let
ters are received the detectives are able
to find the writer and proper punish
ment is given. Many of the writers,
of course, are harmless lunatics, and
when discovered they are put under
surveillance and restraint.
President McKinley has not inspired
many cranks with the notion of threat
ening him by letter. Fewer of these
letters have been received at the whitu
house during th past few months than
for many years before.
The president is not he only publie
oflleial picked out by these letter-writing
cranks. Cabinet officers, senators
and members of the house get their
share.
The eongresHinen just now are re
ceiving any number of threatening let
ters, but they are signed by the full
names of some of their constituents.
They threaten the political lives of the
congressmen if the latter insist upon
milking certain appointments of ost
masters, etc. They usually begin with
n recitation of what stanch party men
they have been and of the extent of
their influence, the retinue of relations
they can control, etc., and wind up by
saying that if the congressmen name
John Smith or Sam Jones for the cross
roads post ofllces in their district all
this influence will be turned against
them. As a rule, these threatening let
ters help to till the waste baskets.

SOME QUEER CUSTOMS.
Mining Camp niabwaahlng and Tory
Inland Teamaklnar.
An old camper-out once related to a
horrified housekeeper his experience of
dishwashincr in a miners' camp. It did
not take much time, though the com'
pany was numerous, and the utensils
of the kitchen were in constant use.
The reason why it took but little time
he sufficiently indicated by the state
ment that the cook pot was notcleaned
till it became too small to hold a pud'
ding of reasonable size. Then some
body got a hammer and knocked off the
hardened accretions from its interior
till it was restored nearly enough to its
original capacity to render further serv
ice. On Tory island, an out of the way
bit of an Irish islet, the natives are not
much more dainty in their living, and
their habit of letting the grounds re
main indefinitely in their teapots has
disastrous consequences.
"livery day and all day long," says a
recent writer, "the teapot sits stewing
in the embers of the hearth and at each
successive brew fresh tea is thrown in,
but the old is never thrown out until the
pot is choked." The result is an unusual
and excessive rate of insanity. Little
wonder, when a Tory island boy who
was questioned as to his usual meals
could reply:
'Stirabout for breakfast and tay for
dinner; tay, of coarse, at taytime and
stirabout for supper; whiles we have
tay for breakfast instead, and stirabout
for our dinner, and then another sup of
tav before bedtime."
However, this diet, injurious as it is to
the nerves, does not seem to affect the
muscles. The Tory island ens are a ro
bust and vigorous race, the men aver
aging six feet in height and the women
unusually tall and strong. The women,
indeed, have need of all their physical
strength, since it is thyAvhodo the bulk
of the outdoor work, while the men stay
at home and spin and weave.
"At Anagry strand on a Sunday morn
ing," says the same observer, "one may
witness a strange eight. At low tide
more than a mile of roundabout
saved by wading across a
narrow bay. me men include
in their Sifilay's wardrobe shoes and
stockings. The women, by courtesy and
custom, wear martyeens footless
stockings with a loop passing over the
toe. Each good wife takes her good
man upon her shoulders and the heroes

MARRYING FOR TITLES.
The Adaptability of American Wom
en Alda Them Vastly,
It is well understood in Europe that
if a man marries into an untitled fami
ly it is better for him to marry an
American than a womtin of any other
nationality, for the same reason that
Napoleon gave for making choice of a
Spaniard she had no family in France
to be. enriched and ennobled. Euro
peans don't trouble themselves much
about American social distinctions and
can't understand the difference be
tween a fortune made in 1796 and one
nuule in the same way in 1897. Many of
the diplomatic corps have married
Americans; there have been several
marriages of Washington girls to sec
retaries of legations and attaches with
in the last ywar, and! a large propor
tion of them have turned out well.
American women are natural diplo
mats. A European woman is born and
bred' in a certain rank of life, and al
though she may be transported to an
other rank she takes with her the stamp
of the grade to which she belongs Not
so with an American woman. As the
wife of the premier of Great Jlritain
she would put Lady Clare Vere de Vere
to shame by her quick adoption of most
of ihe characteristics of the daughters
of a hund'red earls. There is less risk
In tin American girl marrying a diplo
mat than any other sort of a foreigner,
for a diplomat is under bonds- to be
have himself. But if she in, ambitions
and desires, to make a really brilliant
match she ought to marry a citizen of

How to Stop Worrying.
"The usual way people set about stop
piog woory is a wrouu one," writes Man
Boardman Page in the September Ladies'
Some Journal. "That is why it is e
unsuccessful. If a d ctur tells a pi.tien
be muat stop worrying, the patient it
likely to say impatiently: 'Ob, d ;otor
doo't I wish I could ! Bitlom't. If I
Oou'd have stopped worrying a year ag
I would not be ill now!' all of wb'ob it
probably perfectly true. And the d otoi
does not always know bow to help him,
beoaase both doctor and patient have ai
idea that it is possible to repress worr
through an effort of tbe will. This is i
mistake. It is not possible to reprrs
worry. You have got to replace it witl
something else. Let me illustrate thi
by a figure. Hnppose you were to go in
to a completely dark room, wishing it to
be light. Bow would you set about th.
work? Would yoa try to scjop the
darkness up in buokelg and carry it out ?
Not at all. Yuu would jast open t b
windows and abutters and let in th
blessed sunlight. You would replac
the darkness with light. So it is with
worry. The only possible way to get rii
)f it is to replace tbe worry attitude of
mind with the noD-worry attitude. And
this can always ba dune when the per
ion is sincere aud patient in Irs desirt
to bring it shunt. All he hat to d is to
be passive sod let tiature have her owu
