The Metropolitam Police Protects Nearly Seven Mundred Miles of Territory and Attends to Numerous Details of the Mrnafcipal Life and Governmentâ€"15,â€" "so #omâ€"Origin of the Force. The Metropolitan Police of London pre: serves the peace in an area of 688.31 square miles, or more than 440,000 acres, with a force of nearly 15,000 men. ‘The last census recorded the population. of this territory as 5,505,638. For the protection of the lives and property . of these persons the constables are responsible each along the line of his own post while he is on duty. . In addition to this the Met: ropolitan Police has various other duties, wome of which are not strictly in the line of work of constabulary, but are performed ty it for the general convenience, as, for instance, regulating traffic and rendering asaistance in time of accident. . For their labors in 1893 the members of the force ‘roceived £2,204,022, and the expense of the department for that year was £1,395,â€" 873, or nearly $7,000,000, The police torce at times performs various duties for differâ€" ent departments of the (iovernment, and } the Commissioner, who is the execurive i head of the police, may detail men to perâ€" form police duties at public institutions or individuals ; but all these services are paid for by the department, institution, or person benefiting by them. ‘This force, the Metro politan Police, was founded in 1829 by Sir Robert Peel, whose memory is perpetuated in the vernacular of the streets in the words "hobby"and"peelâ€" er." The Metropolitan district of that day was the scene of so much crime of all sorts, on land and water, that reform in the Ad~â€" ministration of justice and the governance of the criminal classes became imperative. There was no uniformity in the systems of the several parishes. _ Each magistrate had jurisdiction only in his own parish or county and the result was a trading ot judicial favors under which the whole system of justice became rotten and corrupt, to the maleficent advantage of ‘the criminally inclined. â€" First the bench was reformed, and the Metropolitan police magistrates are now all trained lawyers, paid by the State. ‘Then came Peel‘s bill establishing a new police force. Like al! English police forces the Metroâ€" ‘politan Police is a civil and nonâ€"military body, but it is commanded by a military head, who is always a man of rank and experience. _ se y I Eoo it ie o anina" fle is the Commissioner, and is appointâ€" ed by the Queen by warrant and acts under the immediate authority of the Home Secretary. He directs and controls the whole system of police within the Metroâ€" politan Police district. . He is a Justice of the Peace for London and the adjacent counties ; but his functions as a Justice of the Peace are specially restricted to the preservation of the perce, the prevention of crimes, the detection and committal of offenders, and the carrying into execution of the purposes of the Metropolitan Police acts. &o contines himself in practice to the administrative control of the police force, and the prevention and detection of crime, by hsvius persons arrested or summoned to be deait with by the magâ€" istrates. The Commissioner makes orders, with the approbation of the Home Secretary, for the regulation and good government of the police force. These are comprised in the Commissioner‘s regulations, general "" s mbbinhfeit lA orders, and police orders, the latter usualâ€" ly uppearing daily. The Commissioner nakes an annual report to the Home Secâ€" retary which is laid before Parliament, All members of the force are instructed that the primary object of the police is the prevention of crime, and the next is the detection and â€" punishment of offenders when crime has beea committed. The protection of life and property, the presâ€" ervation of public tranquility, and the absence of crime are regarded as the proâ€" per evidence of the measure of success attained. | _ 1 F & E2 "a ‘The constables are recruited from all trades and employments,with the exception of the members of the Thames Division, who are recruited from sailors alone, and Yatro] the river in boatsand steam Iaunches. t is among the conditions of their service that constables should give their whole time, and not carry on any trade ; that they should serve and reside wherever «ppointed, and wear the police uniform when on duty. When they first join the fource constables are employed on station duty and in attending the police court durâ€" ing the hearing of charges and summonses. They are instructed daily by a Superinâ€" tendent in the regulations of the force and examined from time to time. .

The reâ€" serves consist of about ten per cent of the withorized strength of each division. The constables and sergeants are armed with truncheons, but are allowed to use them only in extreme cases, when they are violently attacked. Revolvers are also issued to men employed on night duty, but only at their special request, and when in the opinion of the officer in charge of their station they can be trusted to use them with discretion. No policeman has any right to use & revolver except in circumsâ€" tances which would jnstify a private person in doing so, that is to say, in selfâ€" defence only, when attacked by a person with firearms or some other deadly weapon. All constables and sergeants are provided with whistles with which they summon assistance or give alarm. woRk OF THE DETECTIVES. The Criminal Investigation Department, under an Assistant Commissioner, consists of the Chief Constable, a Superintendent, and all other ranks of the force. As a rule the members of this department go about in plain clothes, Volunteers for this deâ€" partment are from time to time called for Ly police orders. Appointments are proâ€" bationary only, for a period of three or six months, and men who do hot show fitpeas for the work return to the ordinary daties .of the force.

Another part of their duty consists in watching the ports, both in England and abroad, to obtain information of the movements of dangerous characters coming to England, and criminals attemptâ€" ing to fly the country. PRIVILECES OF RETIREMENT Every member of the force is entitled after twentyâ€"five years of approved service to retire and receive an ordinary pension for lite. After fifteen years‘ service he is entitled to an ordinary pension if he is in« capacitated, but the pension may be reducâ€" ed by an amount not axceeding oneâ€"half if the incapacity is brought about or contribâ€" uted to by his own fault or vicious habits, If incapacitated before completing fiftoen years‘ service, he may receive a gratuity not exceeding one month‘s pay for every year of service. At any time if a member of the force is incapacitated by injuries reâ€" ceived in the discharge of his duty without any fault of his own, he is entitled to a special pension, the amount of which is 1rcgulnu:d by law. M s ic w / anedt‘ s Pengions and gratuities are calculated on the annual pay at the date of retirement but if in the three years before retirement a man has been in more than one rank, the average pay for the three years is taken. The scale of ordinary pensions begins at fifteenâ€"fiftieths of the annnal pay, which is the persion payable after tifteen years‘ service : and rises gradually to a maximum of twoâ€"thirds, which is a&uined after iwentyâ€"six yeara‘ service. Pensions may be foricited or reduced for misconduct, and may be temporarily suspended in certain cases for other causes, . Pensions, allowancâ€" es,and gratuities are payable to the widows aud children of members of the force,under a variety of circumstances, Napoleons Trouble with His Brothers and Sisters. Louis in Holland was never a king to Napoleon‘s mind. He especially disliked his quarrels with his wife. . The two young people had been married for state reasont and were very unhappy. In 1807 Napoleon wrote Louis, apropos of his demestic relations, a letter which is a good example of mcores of others he sent to one and another of his kings and princes about their private affairs. «* You govern that country too much like a Capuchin, The goodress of a king should. be full of inajesty. . . .

Have the water as hot as can be borne, place the finger in and keep renewing the hot water for several hours. A large proportion of all cramps and pains can be relieved by water of proper temperaâ€" ture and intelligently applied. In case of burns from acids or alkzlies, use cold water freely, as every application will tend to dilute them and render them less liable to injure the skin.

When a sprain occurs, lose no time in attending to it, however trivial it may appear, . Ascertain whether there has been a fracture or dislocation. . If so, send for a physician as soon as possible and keep perfectly quiet until he arrives. | If there is mo fracture or displacement of bones, but only excessive swelling about the joint, bathe the injured member in as hot water as possible. Bathe for fifteen to thirty minâ€" utes, renewing the water occasionally and mpplying with a sponge. Then wrap the injured member in strips of fl«anel saturatâ€" ed with hot water and cover with dry cloths. Do not use the sprained member until reâ€" covered. a sprain. For bleedin% from the nose,hold a sponge saturated with cold water to nostrils and mape of the neck. In case this does not succeed the blceding can be stopped by vigorous action of the jaws. If a child, a wad of paper may be placed in the mouth, and the child instructed to chew hard.

Sprinkle a little sulphur over the wound and tie up with bandages and it wili heal immediately.â€" A very dangerous wound, made by a sewing machine needle, where the needle fragments were found to have bueh beu« almost double against the bone, was cured in this mauner.

HHC: d Is: We 7 the same quantity of rye meal and vineâ€" gar enough to torm a thick paste, In the meantime stir it thoroughly, then let it simmer five to ten minutes. Then put it in a cotton bag made large enough to cover the lungs. . Apply to the chest as hot as the patient can bear, .

A standard medical authority says that the first thing to do for a child in cases of croup is to put his feet into as hot mustard water as he can bear, and be sure that the room is very warm. »If possible, put.him into a hct bath, and then quickly drying him, put him in bed between blankets. Even before putting him in bed give him syrup of ipecac in teaspoonful doses until he vomits. â€" For externalapplications take two tablespoonfuls of turpentine, and four tablespoonfuls of goose oil, or sweet oil, or lard oil, mix well, and rub thoroughly on the outside of the throat. Saturate a flanâ€" mel and lay it over the chest and throat.. Hot bricks, or bottles filled with hot water, should be placed at the child‘s feet and at the sides of his body to induce perspiration.
