When a New York Journal reporter met the young Scotch lassies Mr. Psobertson was -away purchasing tickets. A bright young lady with dark, auburn hair and sparkling blue eyes, laughed and blushed when asked as to - the object of their coming. Finallyshe said: Well, might. as .well tell you; we have come over to marry. We have heard of the .scarcity_ of. wives in the western part of America and decided to make up a party and go out to take our chances.

They were oat- meal fed and hearty. All were well- dressed, and several had packed among their personal effects various little house- hold articles that wouldcome in handy in their western homes. Sarrie were- tall, others short, some 'blondes and some brunettes, and they weighed from 115- to 150 pounds -each: None were Widows. One of the young ladies was asked: How do you know that you will find a husband when you arrive in Oakland? Know ! said she; laughing; why, my cousin, who lives 'near there, told me that there were sixty men, well-to-do and handsome fellohes, to every girl in that country. Don't you think twenty of them would like wives ? .The reporter blushingly admitted that they would certainly show tad taste if they did not. . - • One of their number, more cautious than the rest, had written in advance to the postmaster at a little place this side of Oakland, called Millfield, and through him had already secured a husband. She had his picture and, a batch of let-' ters representing her claim, and ap- Peered cheerful over the proapect of be- coming a junior partner in a thriving firm.

There were toilet articles it is true, but it also -contained a O of jewelry, principally dia- , which the- appraiser valued at The gentleman excused him - saying that he did not know that dutiable, but I knew that this was all gammon. These cases are never heard of, because when detected the amatuer smuggler always pays up. "Ladies of the highest social position make eoatinental trips and retnrn load- ed down with dutiable goods, which • they successfully smuggle ashore. They don't consider it a disgrace to evade the customs -in fact, they rather pride themselves on their cunning.. They wrap expensive laces about their 'forms, secrete diamonds in their pockets, the hems of their dresses, and even in the heels of their shoes,- and tell the most barefaced falsehoods unblushingly to evade paying- the custom.. dues. We can't search them, because of their high social position-, but we know that they are smugglers.
