The new rule excluding the frienda
of passengers from those parte of
eteamahip piera which are required
for the examination of bag-age ie
defended by the euatom houaa ln
apectora aa lessening the opportunity
for smuggling, and in connection
with thia many good stories are told
of Ingenious attempt to rob Uncle

Albert . Emapuel, who, on August
1 of laat year, waa met at the North
German Lloyd pier by a woman rep-
- reaentlng heraelf to be hie wife.
While hia baggage waa being exam
ined Inapeetor Timothy Donohue aaw
him put a bracelet on the woman's
wriat. Donohue remonstrated and
the two were detained. It waa a hot
day, and Emanuel had hla handker
ohief in hia hand. He aaid to the
woman: "You're perspiring. Here,
wipe yonr facet" at the same time
banding her his handkerchief. If the
couple had not been under aurvetl-
lance it la probable that the action
would hare excited no suspicion, aa it
waa done quite naturally. Donohue,
however, was watching them, and he
reached out and snatched the hand
kerchief, remarking: "I'm rather
warm myself." Pinned to a corner of
the handkerchief waa a diamond
brooch valued at about $1,000. Tle
man waa arreated. tried and convict-

had met him at the pier. It waa the

defraud the government, and the
merchant had to pay a fine, besides
losing the ring.

SIZE OF RAIIT CROPS.
Baaet Dlaseaeleaa AsMHalaad b
a Meteatwloalst of
Paris.
TheT aril Meteorologist Faldeau haa
undertaken the laborious taak of
maasarlag tha dlmanatone of rain
' drops, aaya tha New York World.
He finds that tha larguat are about
ene-slxth of an Inch, tha smallest one-flre-huadrtdth
of an inou, in diamo
ter. They are larger In aummer than In
winter, and larger In hot than lit cold
climates. At the moment of con
densation of the water vapor to the
liquid atate great numbcra of ex
tremely small dropa are formed in
eloae proximity. Aa they fall they
come together, and eoalvaoe in con
sequence of mutual attraction, and ao
what we call rain dropa are formed.
The alse of tha drop when it
reaches tha earth depende on the
height from which it haa fallen.
Now, In summer tha lower strata of
air are warmer than in winter, and
therefore cloud arc formed at a
greater height where conditions are
favorable for rnpld condensation. The
drops falling from these high summer
clouds have mora time to grow, and
thrrrfore become larger than the
winter drope.
In winter, as ia well known, elouda
often exist very near the ground.
The velocity with which rain dropa
fall depends according to Faldeau,
both ou their else and on tha wind,
which makea them fall obliquely.
Other thlnga being equal, a drop of
medium aiie, aoy one-flflleth of an
Inch in diameter, may atrika the
ground with a velocity of some 13
feet a second, while a very large drop,
measuring one-sixth of an Inch, may
attain a speed of 3ft feet a second.

Color, burn and texture arc the
three things which the grower of to
bacco hna chlelly to consider. A(

The lenf

must leave a white or li;lit uah,
which does not llukn off ami fall Into
one's bosom or over his wuitttcoHt.
and It must not "conl" I. e., huvc n
black, charred ring juxt behind the
ash on the burning cigitr. This i
sure to give a bad fluvor Bnd (ante.
The leaf also must burn freely, and
when lighted hold Arm for a reason
able time. It muat have a soft, sil
very texture, glossy surface and the
elasticity of a piece of kid, so that It
may be drawn smoothly and closely
about the cignr. Fluvor is not want
ed in Connecticut tobacco, for If
there be much of it it la sure to be
bad. I'erfcct burn, color anil texture
can be got In the northern climate,
but a delicate and agreeable flavor
has not yet been obtained. Flavor is
conditional upon aoil and fertilizers.
It la desirable, therefore, that the
leaf be neutral, without taste, as far
aa may be. We got the flavor wholly
in the Culnn filler. To obtain these
qualities of leaf ia the, problem of
the grower a much more compli
cated one than mecta the ordinary
farmer.
