“I know.” said a detective who had
been to Europe and passed some time in
the society of London detectives, “how
a pickpocket was once arrested with
out his captor seeing hrs prisoner’s face
before he got to the lockup, and with
out anyone putting a hand on him. It
happened this, way: A detective who
was often detailed to gatherings, wed
dings, the houses of parliament, West
minster abbey, and other public places,
often ran* across a wiry little man who
he discovered had no business where he
was seen, and did nothing for a living.
“Coincidental with the man’s visits to
crowded places were complaints of lar-
ceniea of articles that were carried in
the pockets of tails of coats, and espe
cially silk handkerchiefs. The detectives
HURpected tho little wiry man, but he ev
idently had more than one confederate
to pass wTiat was stolen so as to be
‘clean,’ for the oflicer who was watch
ing him, anef who was nettled nt re
proof from his superiors for his negli
gence in not discovering the pickpock
et, had him arrested twice by other of
ficers and ‘shukwn down* without find
( ing any stolen g^mfs nr his possession.
“Strange officers were used to make
the arrests in order that the suspected
man might not become familiar with
j the principal detective’s face, as he de
termined to get him ‘by hook or by
crook.’ Now I don’t mean this for a
pun, but it came out that way. The de
tective belonged to one of the many
fishing clubs that abound in London,
and was familiar with tackle.. •
; “Procuring four dozen unsnelled
, hooks of the size and strength used here
for bluckfish, some flax thread and a
needle, he passed an afternoon in turn
ing the tail-pockets of arr old-fashioned

roundings as possible, but noted the
{ presence of the suspect and waited
j calmly for a bite. It camb. There was
a tug at his coat and a bitter oath, and
he knew that his man’s hand was seized
by the hooks, and that lie would not

Consumption
COAL WASTED IN MINING.
Twenty-Two Per Cent, of the Total
Output of Enifliah Mine«
Annually Lost.
“It has been recently computed
that more than 50,000,000 tons of coal
are wasted every year in the mine.”
So said J. Stephen Jeans in address
ing the South Wales Institute of En
gineers,- reports the London Tele
graph. This wtfste i« that mainly >f
small coal, and i«, of course, quite in
dependent of (he reckless and useless
consumption that goes on in nearly
every domestic grate and at every
furnace. Even this huge figure is
less than it used to be, for. with the
general adoption of coal washing
plants, the introduction of producers
capable Of using small coal in the
making of gas and the manufacture
of briquettes, lhe loss has been re
duced. It forms still 23 per cent, of
the total output, and represents a
mOtiey sacrifice of £20,000.000.
Al
lowing 10,000,000 homes in the United
Kingdom, these 50,000,000 tons would
allow five tons per annum for every
family. A high authority (Forster
Brown) reckons that at the existing
rate of consumption (and waste)
“within 40 years from the present
time an increase in the cost of coal
will Iwgin to be felt as a new element
in the commercial position of the na
tion.** Mr. Jeans thinks this esti
mate too pessimistic, but if we allow
twice 40 years it is a terribly short
time in the life of a nation. Most
people ignore the fact that the ex*
haustion has begun. In the Nofth-
nmberland coal field most of fhe
thick seams are worked out, and it
has now become necessary to work
«earns from two feet, to two feet six

Kare-ly, if ever, has there been such
a superabundance of fruit as row
abounds in the New Englund orcbards.
The limbs of the apple and pear trees
hang heavy under the weight of their
enormous yield, and the ground be
neath the trees is covered with the de
caying dropping«. I m some localities
fine apples may ire had for the picking,
and an offer of half a dollar a barrel
for the fruit on the tree is eagerly ac
cepted in the rural districts. Thou-
santls of bushels are being fed to the
cattle and pigs and the cider mills are
gLu-tted with raw material for the
presses. It sev’ms a pity to see such
a large quantity of fine fruit going to
waste, it is almost superfluous to of
fer suggestion in the Line of thought
ful philanthropy to Dr. Hate, but, the
glutted conuibion of ths uichurus sug
gest« that it might be °- good idan to
renew his farmers’ fruit offering

supply of free fruit to the poor people
of Boston when it was originally un
dertaken. Undoubtedly a great many
bushels of apples can now be had for
the asking.
WRITING THE PROTOCOL.
Difllealtl«« In Making th« Chin«««
nnd French LantcunMiev 1B the
Tent Afrre«.
——
The Peking correspondent of the
Echo de Chi-ne says that the Chinese
authorities were much gratified on the
PalACe of Ancestors being handed otef
to them by the French military au
thorities, to find that nothing had been
touched and that all the re’ics of the
¡dynasty had been respected by th«
: French. Among the objects returned
to the Chinese were half a million of
pearls and the cases with the collec
tion sent to France by Gen. Frey and
l returned by order of the minister of
marine. The corres|>ondent also says
that the ter-ms of the final protocol
were fixed on August 15. The paper
employed was fine Japanese paper,
thick and of square form, furnished
by the bishopric.
The text was written in French «nd
! Chinese and long sittings werw neces
sary by Messrs. Morris.se, Campbell
aad the ether interpreters of the leglP
tions to resolve the little difficulties
resulting from the juxtaposition of
the tww texts. It is known, in fact,
that the Chinese etiquette demanded
that the name of the empe-ror and
other great personages should be put
at the head of the lines in a manner
to be above t*he context, and this ren
dered almost impossible an agreement
between the two transcriptions. Th«
sensational story about the meeting«
of the drploTTMitic corps having been
suspended because Britain refused it«

A Ti.kW« K.iinirk at the Tomb of Lord
Nelson.
The English people will never under
stand the humorous temper o£ the
American, which makes him ask stK-h
questions as that receded l>y Mark
Twain ns hnving been asked by a
friend of his in the British museum.
A guide had exhibited an Egyptian
mummy, and diseoursel long upon the
antiquity of it, and the Egyptian proc
ess of embalming, and so forth; and at
last the American asked: “Is be dead?"
It was only recently, according to a
letter in an exchange, that in St. l'aul's
cathedral a London guide held forth
thus to an American gentleman:
“That, sir, is tbe tomb of the great
est naval 'ero Europe or the whole
world ever knew!”
"Yew?'*
"It. is, sir, the tomb of Txvrd Nelson.
This ntnrble -«roophiggus weighs 42
tons llinside 'hat. is a steel receptacle
weighing 12 tons, and hinside that is
a leaden casket, 'ermet-cally sealed,
weighing two tons. Hinside that is a
ma'ogany coffin 'olding the ashes of the
great ’ero.”
“Well," said th« Yankee, after reflect
ing a moment, “I gner« you’ve got him.
If he ever geta «til of that, telegraph
me at my expense.”
