The Bishop's Ohoata.

( The prelate, who prt*ested afterward [ be was not frightened, demanded, I lo a tone of authority, , "Who are you?" ( ■ -Not a word of reply. i Tbe presence beared a profound sigh, c wooM not speak. t TV Bishop tbso panes tbe bdbcord, c which bung within reach; but tbe aer- c rants at that hour was eo sound asleep a nobody heard tbe alarm. 1 He repeated the question, thie time persuasively; still no answer, only a repeti- r of tbe deep Sigh. 1 Then tbe spparitlno took a packet of f from its bosom, lakl It on tbe table t where papers of tbe bishop were lying, t opened it and began te overlook the dlf- I document* 1 At length, when tbe prelate bad rang, f sod rang, and rang, without answer of I any kind, tbe specter, without so much a as having wicked at bis frantic efforts to t arouse assistance, quietly gathered up its paper* and returned them to its bosom, 1 solemnly arose, and departed as s sedately as it bad catered. c When the servants at length appeared, a bishop demanded of them what they j seen. 1 "Been, my lord?" j "Ay— whom have you seen? Who is j woman that has been here?" s " Woman, my lord?" 1 In abort, wben his lordship bad told of c vision, bis domestics were firmly of j opinion that be bad been dreaming.

Robbing the Malls. "How often does s letter robber oscaper asked a reporter of The WaMnglm Pott of a poet office detective. "That depend*" was the answer. "If a postal clerk, tar instance, makes a practice of rifling letters be ts sure to be caught— there is nothing surer. Your periodical thief is the one who may evade apprehension for some time. He may make a big hand to-day and then Hop for mooth or so. Suspicion may rest upon and be Is shadowed. No evidence be found sgaiust him. and finally tbe After everything is has quieted down tbe thief may make another haul, and may keep the thing up for some time be Is caughL A post-offloc inspector, who roceutiy returned from s southern city, where be been investigating tbe theft of *300 a letter In a post-office, tola m reporthat be soon became convinced that this tbeft was committed by of two female* tbe offloe.

Of course as a perfectly honest woman, will do objection to showing ran what have on your person— the contents of your pocket*" "Why, certainly not," was tbe reply, and tbe lady at once showed what her pockets contained, but the contents did not include money. "Have you no money about you?" he asked. ~"I some in the pocket of my eacqoe, hangs In a cloeet to the next room. I srill get It. "Oh no replied the Inspector, want to be completely vindicated. Let meexamlnetbe eacqoe," which be did In it the identical bffla' and identical coins which be had marked and put in tbe deeoy letter. The thief then confessed that since ber fattier had left ber tSO.OOO ehe bad became seised with an uncontrolpassion for adding to that sum, and that she had been rifling letters occasionally ever since.
