A few weeks back a man found himself in thelock main- ly through a cobweb. A detectivo had been attracted to pay him peculiar at. tentiou by the fact that, fashionably attired. he was walking down the street with a mass of cobwebs on the elbow of his frock coat. The news received later that a rob- bery hdd been elected at a wine mer- chant's ohlce in the neighborhood sug- gested the question whether there were in the cellars. where the thief might have concealed himself cob- webs of the sanie description. There were, and the immaculately dreswd man will in future probably take a clothes brush with him when engaged in like pursuits. He will not need one, however, for over two years. “it is the little thing that catches the criminal," declared M. Mace, the great head of the Paris police. He caught a criminal named Aveuet by a scent t offender used. The/ time was a terrible one—the murder of a lady for her jewvls and- lady was discovered lying upon the door of her mom dead. She had been strangled. No one had been seen go- ing in or departing from her moms. There appeared no elew. A handkerchief-«u lady] s—-wnii on the floor beside her it was at once assumed that the handkerchief was her hand ilut it was scented and no one had ever known madame to use that peculiar scent. Mace came to the conclusion that it belonged to the murderer, and that the assassin was a man of eiteminafe and Handyish habits. Within four days Mace had found his man. It was the scent that led to his head falling into hi. Deibler‘s basket. In the black museum at Scotland Yard is the plaster cast of a bitten! ,apple, which was the only clew the police had to the identity of the per- petrator of a most sensational crime. The murderer's victim was a women who was found dead in a room in a house in London. The assassin had eaten part of the apple, and a very fair impression of his teeth remained in the fruit. Unfortunately the clew was not sufficient. and the guilty man was never discovered. In a case tried some years since, a man suspected of murder was discov- ered to have on two lingers of his right hand marks which had clearlyi 1043 been cradle byTgecullaII'Iy shatpeddel'i‘t; man teat . e feet of t 9 SPECIAL PRICE OF FLOUR BY THE BARREL. man were shown to exactly lit into 20 lbs.

But in the holder was a small piece of un- sumed cigar-end. Experts pronounced it a cigar of the finest quality—one which only a per- son of wealth could anord to purchase. This evidence appeared to confirm the notion that the cigar-holder had belonged to the dead plutocrat. He had cigars in the house, too of the same brand. One of the detectives. however en- gaged in the case. was not satisfied The cigar-holder was peculiarly worn in two places. Its owner had eviden:- ly been accustomed to hit it hard. Two teeth had almost bitten it through. The detective inserted the holder in the mouth of the dead man. bat‘his teeth would not ill these hol- lows. , The holder had evidently belonged to help himself to his master‘s choice cigars.
