It is a mighty dull season with customs officers of ocean ports when the smug gler falls to wake them up. The' extra ordinary tnrush of globe trotters this sea son Is sufficient to keep the officials busy wlh routine' duty, but the smugelcr is correspondingly numerous. Innocent in sp poarauce and crafty. Like the ions fisher man's catch, tire biggest gets away and are never heard of. The number caught makes a fairly good string for the watchful guardian1 of Uncle Sam's tax and foreign goods. Two notable; hauls were made In New York recently. One was a man weighted with luces wound around his body, tucked away In his pockets and stuffed into the sleeves of a coat carried on his arm. , Next came a pyramid of thirty trunks packed with laces and dress goods worth 130,000 which the owner neglected to invoice la ti e usual way. For some reason the ayerage traveler re fuses to consider smuggling an offense, while womonklnd took upon revenue officers as lions la their path, to be circumvented with every wile of which feminine inge nuity Is capable. Every season soma 300,000 well-to-do Americans go abroad In a fleet of ICS or more giant liners, of which the world never before saw. the like for sire, power and luxury. . What this annual hegira means to the historic old cities of Europe can only be dimly guessed. Kng land, at any rate, looks for t.OuO.OOO as Its share for the seas.' France takes at least as much, and probably Italy two thirds, ' ' la it any wonder, then, tha Uncle Sam's lyna-tyed guardians of the treasury should have work to do when these .wanderers return laden with presents, 'souvenirs and purchases? Watch these too women and , men coming down the gangplank of their floating palace to claim their own among the mountainous wastes of baggage. With out exception, all are possible law evaders In the eyes of the waiting officials, and one may be eure that snugly packed awajr among these great pyramids of trunks are thousands of dainty trines which It 1s the painful duty of every ruan. the proud am bition of every wunso, to carry through unscathed and undetected. 1 Three Grades ( 8saggUrs.

' There are, firstly, Inno cent folk, who have bought things abroad merely because they were so cheap and charming, never dreaming of the ordeal awaiting their Importation or the rude shock of official challenge, with Its costly results. Secondly, there are those who de liberately conceal In baggage or on person valuables they know t? be highly dutiable. These are the people who regard the cus toms officials as little better than legalised pirates. Thirdly, comes the wholesale pro fessional -smuggler, ' whose detection Is a serious matter for himself and the gov ernment. People of this kind have grown In boldness and numbers of lata years, trusting, doubtless, to the vast Increase In foreign travel and the consequent confusion hithe return season to escape detection. And yet the penalties are pretty severe. When the' seizure is sustained by the col lector, or on application by the secretary of the reaaury, and the vaiae of the property is under I&00, It Is sold after due advertisement. Goods more than this are reported to the court, and, if condemned by default or after forfeiture by Jury trial, they are sold by the United Slates marshal. But In addition tottlie confiscation of the property, a heavy fine and imprisonment may be Inflicted up to $5,000 and two years. It will be seen, then, that men of keen perception and rare tact are necessary for 'he detection of smuggling, for a blunder -ill surely lead to a very unpleasant epi ode. When a magnificent transatlantic Iner arrives In port and perhaps J,000 ouls flock out of It, you may be sure it is a perrlexing task to determine which of them has a pouch of diamonds or a mass of picclous lace on his or her person, or a trunk with a false bottom that may hide dutiable property .worth' thousands. Clnnisy Dlagalars. ' But rare Judges of human nature lie in wait for the smugglers, Sherlock Holmeses with the suavity of trained diplomats. Kvery glance of the suspect, every greeting to his friends. Is noticed in a flash. An abnormal waistcoat, an 111 fitting shirt, a touch of nervousnese as- authority ap proaches a trunk all 'suggest to the in spector's veteran eye possible caches of property. Mistakes are rare. Indeed, and In any event, priuca or peasant has no redress If Ms deineaaor has given reason able cause for detention and search. And the inspection service has its own spies far oversea, watching and cabling Information of possible smugglers. One summer morning a wealthy New Yorker went Into a jewelry store In the Rue de IS Patx and partlaly completed a deal In volving $t7,000 worth or precious stones. But at the last aioment negotiations were broken off arid then the American, went further along to another and bought what tie wanted at a much lower figure. So far, well enough. But. arrived la New York, the purchaser failed is declare big diamonds, whereupon to his unspeakable amazement and discomfiture, , he was-instantly con fronted With a statement nf the rt.t. and circumstances of both visits, together with the street and number of the man from whom he had bought the Jewels, and the price paid. The property was Immediately confiscated. On one occasion a special officer's eye fell upon a passenger whose waist looked much out of proportion to the rest of his figure. Taken aside and searched, his corpulence was speedily reduced by the removal of a specially made vest fairly lined with silver watches! Among the more ordinary discoveries by the officers are extra gold watches, laces, silks and linens wound around the smug gler's body or limbs; human hair In toupees, wigs and switches sewn Into skirts, new and costly dresses stitched to old ones, and rare silks aad laces made up Into volumi nous skirts. Often enough, too, a man's hat will be found to contain 'sets of point lace, obviously put there oy some woman relative. , Harbor Cmu federates. On a much larger scale Is the smuggling which the night inspectors are appointed to prevent. Uniformed and armed, these meo are authorised to stop and search reason ably suspected persons who may go on ooara or come from a vessel lying at anchor. The work Is no sinecure, but In volves much exposure snd fatigue. Thiers was a time when Cuban steamers carried cunning smugglers who enclosed cigars in rubber bags snd threw them Into the waters of New York's lower bay. Confed erates would then pick them up, load them on express wagons waiting on al)ore and drive rapidly off. Many a time have vigi lant officers watched unseen the whole oper ation until the horse had broken Into a gal lop, when, darting at the animal's head, they stopped the wagon and In a few min utes landed all the spoils in the selsure room. One French steamer was notorious for smuggling Spirits, and almost every man of its crew carried underneath his clothes, ex tending from the armpit down each side, special!) made tin flasks filled with choice brandy and whisky. A dealer In human hair, too, who died not long ago worth over $3Cis,000, was once dsteoted in illicit importa tions under the shirts of his many agents. How long this had gone on there was no way of telling definitely. As to sailing vessels, these are watched by special . agents, whose duties are most Irksome, since they are opposed by regular dealers In contraband goods snd unscrupu lous traders who tax the resources of human ingenuity to the uttermost. It is a tedious thing to be called upon to discern which log of lis ported wood has been cun ningly exoavsted and packed with cigars or spirits or lo which case of boots and shoes wstches snd Jewelry are hidden wholesale in the heels. The very ropes ap parently constituting the upper rigging of srcall craft have ben found In sums cgaps to consist of tobacco Ingeniously twisted into tn semblance of cordage. One may well Imagine, therefore, what a museum la tho seisTTre room at the custom house. Here will be found an incongruous collection, ranging from rowboats captured with contraband goods, to Paquln gowns and cases of champagne. One strange phase of the work Is that periodically the secretary of the treasury In Waahlngton receives a check or nioney order for a considerable sum as "conscience money." As much as $1,500 has been re ceived at one time from, a burdened con science, whose owner requaated the govern ment to acknowledge receipt in the daily papers. Needleaa to say. however, this Is exceptional: the great Idea appears to be to evade payment of duty. ' Chinamen ! the Game. When something like $4 a pound was first Imposed upon crude opium the Chin. i vented an Ingenious wsy of smuggling It Into San Francisco. Each well-to-do ori ental was noticed on nearlnsr th h.rha. seat himself In an elaborately carved chair oi nuge proportions, which was usually represented as an heirloom of great value. And being part of his household effects long In use that chair was, of course, exempt from duty. - Now. a long 'succession of these chairs began to attract attention. They were carried ashore right side up with tender care. It was only the merest adcident. however, that revealed the truth. One day a stevedore's truck struck a couple of Chinamen with the heirloom chairs, and, to the amazement of all onlookers over fifty pounds of crude opium rolled along the quay like so many cannon Balls. And. of course, until news got back to China, that the game was up visitors continued to ar rive with great dignity seated in the an cestral chair. To this day the San Fran cisco officers will recall with a smile the studied sedateness and magnificent repose of these smugglers ss they leaned back In their "heirlooms" on the decks of arriving steamers. In spite of all official vigilance smuggling will surely go on, chiefly becauae there Is no time adequately to search each traveler. Who would think of finding thousands of dollars' worth of costly lace rolled up in the hollow crutches of some "suffering" cripple? Again, there was the historic goat, detected after years of Journeylngs between London and Rotterdam. This accommodat ing animal bad consented to have his back and sides shaved and then be fitted with the skin of a martyred comrade, ingeni ously attached to his flanks by slender threads of goat's hair. Then the space between his shorn back and the "overcoat" formed a convenient and, quits elastlo pocket for as many yards of Brussels or Mechlin. Valenclnnea of Torchon, not to speak of gloves and perfume, as the old salt, his owner, chose to cram Into FREAK RELIGION IN INDIANA The "Gllggy Risks" Successfully Dis rupting Homes In the i Iloosler State. The Apostolic Christians, more generally known as the Gliggy Bluks. form one of the strangest religious sects that has evrr held meetings withm the state of Indiana. Though the Gliggy Bluks say their falih Is several yesrs old they never flourished in Indiana until about six months ago. At that time, "Bralherx Tom," whose last name Is so long that even the Bluks do not at tempt to pronounce it, came east from Los Angelts to Indianapolis. With Brother Tom came Sister Klnoia Hall, Sister Cecilia Smock and two or throe others of the fol lowers. The strangest feature of the meetings is the talking in Bt range tongues. An apostle who speaks in tongues gets pale, trembles and apparently Is under a great nervous strain. "Hlggledy glik. lala glud blggy Mump" this Is the way the strange talk sounds. And it is this language that gave rise to the name "Gliggy Bluks." When the Gliggy Bluks came from the west they were without money. For a time where they were living was a mystery. It later developed that they were living with Mrs. Sarah Crlpe, an Injianapolls woman of means. Mrs. Cripe's relatives objected seriously to housing the Bluks, but Bister Crlpe was obdurate and even de clared that all of her $S,000 could be used to further the cause. After a time. Brother Tom and his sisters left for Zlon City, Chicago, and then came Brother Glenn Cook out of the west, Cook at one time was a printer and he Is a past master In the art of strange tongues. With Brother Cook a spell of the tongues Is heralded by extreme pallor and a shaking of his entire body. Then with his eyes gazing upward he suddenly breaks out into a Jabbering which cannot be comprehended, at least except by a fullfledged Bluk. Shortly ofir Brother Cook arrived Brother Seymour camo from Los Angeles snd with him the entire Cummins family, consisting of mother, father snd seven chil dren. And the most strstllng feature of the situation was that Brother Seymour and all of the Cummtnaes were as black as the ace of spades. Notwithstanding Brother Seymour was welcomed as the salnf of all saints, for was It not he who founded the sect of the Gliggy Bluks! It was, according to the apostles. Brother Seymour founded the great faith while meeting with a little band in a stable In Los Angeles. Brother Seymour was hailed with delight and he and Brother Cook drove out de mons and snolnted the followers with oliv oil and when olive oil was not available they used machine oil. ' Tom Oddy, a prominent business man of Indianapolis, objected to his wife attend ing the Gliggy Bluk meetings. She would not desist. Finally It was published in a newspaper that Sister Oddy' had bowed at the feet of Brother, Seymour, the Negro Bluk, for. benediction. This was published In the morning and before noon Oddy had filed suit for divorce. Mrs. Oddy left lier beautifully furnished home snd prayed and sang with the Bluks Just tho same But the Bluks continue their meetings snd their bands Is growing. They hold ses sions until late at night and occasionally they have a foot-washing. After the foot washing they line up in a row and the women kiss the women and the men kiss the men. The Gliggy Bluks believe the millennium is near at hand. And they fear that tho sinners sortn will be lost. For this reason they sre snxious to cast out demons.
