Daring the early part of 18C3 the gen

While there ho related this curious buci
dent: "Col. Conrad, of the Fifteenth Missouri,
informed me thut he got through without
much difficulty; in fact, that everything
ha1 gono all right and boon eminently
satisfactory, except that in returning ho
had becu mortified by the conduct of tho
two females belonging to the detachment
and division train at my headquarters.
These women, he said, had given much
annoyance by getting drunk, and to some
extent demoralizing his men. To say that
I was astonished at his statement would
be a mild way of putting it, and had I not
known him to boa most upright man and
f Hound sense, I should have doubted not
only his veracity but his sanity. Inquiring
who they were and for further details, 1
was informed that there certainly we-ro in
tho command two females, that in some
mysterious manner had attached them
selves to tho service as soldiers; that one,
an Kast Tennessee woman, was a team
ster in tho division wagon train and tho
other a private soldier in a cavalry com
pany temporarily attached to my head
quarters for escort duty
While out on the fornging expedition
these Amazons had secured a supply of
"ajplo jack" by some means, got very
drunk, and on the return had fallen into
Stono river und been nearly drowned
After they had been fished from the
water, in the process of resuscitation their

l'OLICE IN JAPAN
POLITENESS OF OFFICIALS WHEN
ARRESTING AN OFFENDER.
Scene In a Japanese Folic Station Visit
to the Bureau of Newtpaper CennorHlilp.
Suspending an OnVnUlug Journal Secret
Service.
A Japanese policeman was never known
to smile, but when ho finds it necessary
to proceed to tho extreme step of arrest
ing a lawbreaker his face become's clouded
over with a pall of sorrow and solemnity
that would do credit to an Iriidi under
taker taking the coliiu measurement of
an archbishop Grasping the offender
Crmly with ono band, with tho other ho
extracts from an invisible pocket of great
capacity a roll of strong cord Whisper
lug polito and ininuto directions in tho
ear of tho victim, who obeys them with
scrupulous coiisiderat ien for tho feelings
of his captor, ho winds tho Cord several
times around his waist and then attaches
his wrists in optical contact with tho
small of his back. Six feet of cord ro
main; tho policeman grasps the loose end.

"After you, sir." the pair march awav in
a touching union of sadness and security.
lue neighborhood is paralyzed during tbe
performance, business is suspended and
tramc is stopped
M Altl'll ED OFF TO nil SOX.
Tho formality of an arrest, however, is
tuo onlv amusing side of Japanese jus
tico. If you follow tho white clothed
policeman and his prisoner you will soon
reach a police station in which sit a dozen
clerks and functionaries hard nt work at
biKiks and accounts and reports, with
nothing except their physiognomy and
tho little teapot and tobacco brazier he
side each ono to differentiate them from
similar European oilicials. The prisoner
will bo taken before a superior oflie-er, tho
cuarge against him uoted down; ho will
be searched and then put in one of a dozen
wooden e-clls, ten feet square perhaps,
separated from tho central passage by
great wooelen bars reaching from tloor to
ceiling, and making a cell curiously like
an elephant house, but providing admira
bly for ventilation in this hot climate.
At tho police station he may not bo kept
mero than twenty-four hours, and then he
is removed to a central station, which is
simply tho first police statiou ou a largo
scale, minus the functionaries ond plus
the necessary arrangements for the deten
tion of prisoners for long periods. The
courts are much like European courts.
After visiting many court rooms we
reached a room where twenty particularly
intelligent looking officials sat at both
sides of a long table piled up with news
papers, scissors, blue and red pencils, paste
pots and all the familiar equipment of the
exchange editor's sanctum. I turned to
my guides for an explanation, and caught
them regarding me and each other with
amused smiles. Then I saw the joke.
It was the Bureau of Newspaper Censor
ship, and these gentlemen with the spec
tacles and scissors and paste were exam
ining all the newspapers of Japan for
treasonable or seditious sentiments pr im
proper criticism of ministerial and im
perial affairs. J was introduced, the twenty
gentlemen rose simultaneously and the
laugh became general. "This," Bald my
guide, waving his hand proudly over the
piles of newspapers and the teapots of the
censors, "is an institution you have not
yet reached iu England."
CExsonsnir ok the tress.
The procedure of this branch of the
Japanese police is simple in the extreme.
A lynx eyed pehsor fliscQvers an "article
wlilch seeing to Lis conservative notions
to threaten the stability of the govern
ment, to bring a minister into contempt
or to foster improper agitation among the
people. He extracts it and submits it to
the director of the bureau, who probably
takes counsel with the higher authorities
If the censor's view is confirmed the edi
tor of the paper s peremptorily but pe
litely summoned everything ' is done
politely in Japan, and I have no doubt
that the school boy is politely birched and
the criminal politely executed to appear
at the department of police at a certain
uour on a certain elav. When that sum
mons comes to join tlio innumerable cara
van of martyrs to a sense of journalistic
duty ho knows that in the expressive
language of tho Bowery ho is a "goner."
"Sir," ho is told, "your estimable journal
is suspended for so many days. Uood
morning."
The wholo system of secret police is
highly developed in Japan. There is a
regular staff of detectives who disguise
themselves as laborers, merchants or trav
elers, or even in case it is nee'essary to
hunt down some great criminal, hire a
house in the suspected neighborhooil ancj
live there, pne pf these men loses caste
very much in his oliice, if he does not ac
tually suffer a degradation of position, by
tailing to return with information he is
dispatched to secure. Besides thesOj
however, there is a regular staff of private
police correspondents in all part s' of the
country, and ono whole bureau at the de
partment pf police is devoted to receiving,
ordering, classifying these, and taking
action upon them. A good deal pf infor
mation must bo picked up from tho teo
houses, each of which is a center of gossip,
and in one or other of which almost every
male well-to-do inhabitant of Tokio is an
habitue. Tokio Cor. New York World.
Tbe Man tTlio Laughs.
I licre is one man whose presence in a
theatre during a comedy is worth money
to the management. II is the greatest
laugher I ever saw. Like all good 'Jaiigh
ers Tie is fat, and t fills a man with merry
moments to be arounet when he is laurrn-
lng. He has a Jiearty rolling laugh thai
catches an audience quickly, and soon the
audience and he are en traced in a lau'ru
ing match. When the laughing has been
going on for four or five minutes, and
everybody's sides are sore and all hanehx
take a rest, there is a lull through thf
house which, ia immediately broken by a
low passionate sob and a crentlv modulated
"O-ahl" from the laugher who Is putting
me uLubiLuig vouuxies on ins cacumatory
effort. Immediately the audience forged
the soreness of their sides and burst into
a roar, friends pf his bring thelaugheip
tq the theatre just to have fun with in,
H& cornea with a different' crowd every
time, and bis friends get their enjoyment
out of him and not out of tho perform
ance, lid's the jolliest laugher I ever
heard. "G. M." la Globe-Democrat.
