hope Of finding there the picture of the last
object on which they rested in life, which

was based upon fact which has been es-
tablisicd by a clrous investigation Of the
French police.
BY French scientists it is claimed that in
cases Il sudden and violent death under Ger.

tains an IMPRESSION of the last object seen
at the instant when death occurred This
impression has been reproduced by the cam

face of su p-c'et murderer has been thus

II was ho,sd that this method might be
employed with success in discovering the
murderer OF Ella Watson bur the rem ans
had been buried before the plan was sug-
gosted TO the police.
This same theory was advanced by de-
tecilye, in Chicago last spring when the
Wilson murder was attracting SO much at
teution, Lut no experiments were made, and
nie plan was also suggested as IA means of
dcte ting the murderer of Fora Burns
at J. oh, ILL.,, but the detectives in
both eases evidently had little Faith in the
theory, FOR they did not seek to demon
strate its truth or falsty even when all
others had failed.

Imposters and Sharks.

Imposters and sharks are not wholly
confined to the Bohemian Oats and patent
wind mill fraternity. They occasionally
creep into other branches of business, and
leave their imprint to the detriment of the
business they should strive to place above
the suspicion of even the incredulous.
Just at the present time when so many are
wearing the blue flannel suits, especially
the soldier boys, complaints are numer.
Gus of their having paid thirteen, fourteen
and fifteen dollars suit. The prices of
middlesex, assabet and slater flannels
have been nearly as regular as govern.
ment money. For the past four years the
price has not at any time been more than
twelve dollars suit in regular sizes from
50 to AZ, subject to 0 liberal discount by
the dozen suits 10 G. A. r. Posts. This
year the goods are worth eleven dollars at
retail. Lower grades of all wool indigo.
dye.flannelS are worth eight to nine and a
half suit.
We obtain these prices from our cloth
ier, A. M. Fitch, whose principle in bust
ness is to sell goods TO all at what they are
worth, instead of to each customer for all
he can get.
