A despatch from London says: That Germany plans to rush St. Petersburg by way of Finland is indicated by news which has been received here. From information from a thoroughly reliable source it is learned that the project was in- cubated a long time ago, and that it, contemplated a rising of‘ the. Finns, to whom large quantities of arms were secretly shipped from Switzerland. The information gains especial interest from the following telegram from Holger R. Angelo, a correspondent in Copenhagen: "The Russians have dynamited the greater part of Helsingfors and other south Finnish cities, accord- ing to a private despatch received here. Residents of these cities were sent away and enormous masses of troops have been assembled in the expectation of a. German attack. It is thought that the rumors of a sea fight near the Aaland Islands ori- ginated from the dynamite explo- sions at 1Eehsintrfors." Postmaster: Not to Accept It For Certain Countries.

A men's home life and private business is not generally inquired into by his employers. The excep- tion is in the case of bank clerks. Most banks make a point of know- ing all about their clerks' life after business hours. Many make them fill up a, return at regular intervals, stating whether they are married or single, where they live, what rent they pay, and a. number of other details which would be resented by employees in other professions. In some cases this information is ob- tained by means of the bank's pri- vate detective, Mr. Nosey Parker. Mr. Parker, who comes from the head office, and is, of course, un- known to the clerks in the provin- cial offices, shadows Mr. Smith, the new clerk. When Mr. Smith is so gaily having a. "hundred up," and taking sundry bets upon the result, the bank's detective is sit- i ting quietly watching, an interested [spectator of the game. The bank doesn't object to a quiet game of billiards, but it does to its employees betting and drinking; so Mr. Smith gets a black mark against his name. A despatgh from London says: The King has appointed Lord Rob- erts Colonel-in-C'hief of such over- seas forces as may come over to England.
