of Chief McClaughry's staff the other

discouraged very soon and drop out OF
sight, but occasionally one hangs on
with considerable pertinacity and
astonishes some of the older hands at
the business.
"One Of the most successful detect
ives in Chicago today. man who is
worth comfortable fortune. came to-
me year ago and asked ME 10 help
him obtain a position as house detective
at one of the hotels down town. Shortly
afterward | secured place for him at
the fremont. Two days later | saun-
tered over to the hotel to see how he
was getting along. l found him posing
before the cashiers desk, mis- coat pulled
back so as to display big badge. His
attire, in short, was so loud that
crook could have heard it several blocks
distant. | called him aside and told
him to duck the duds.'
4" 'Sh!' lie replied, that's nothing
just nothing: come up to my ROOM
''Then he confronted me with the
most startling array of DISCUSSES | ever
saw. There were dozens of wigs, every
sort Of hat from the sombrerO to the
opera plug, dark lanterns, false boards
and mustaches. grease paints, billies,
clubs, guns, manacles. aud even velvet
soles, a device for passing nOiselessly
about house.
" .Theren he exclaimed. d.triumphantly,
how does that strike you? Suppose a
man does get onto me today, | can dis
gulSe myself so that he'll never be able
to recognize me again.
81 left in disgust: but about a week
afterWard my curiosity took me over to
the fremont again. found the detect
i've coming out eff the wash room. which
was shrOuded in darkness. What's the
mattcr?' l asked. No gasp
Nope he replied. 'Fve been trying
to ecOnOmiZe little Tor the hotel and
have turned the gas out about dozen
times, but some chump has lighted it
again every time, Pm laying for him
now: just wait minute and you'll see
me make pinch"
Il didn't have to wait long. The man
who was caught was the night clerk,
and he gave the detective just an hour
to get out of the house.
THAT hoWl:ng idiot would have
driven me crazy In another day. SAID
the clerk. Why, last night he saw a
porter carrying a pair Of boots from
guests room to black them, lay in wait
for the chap, pOunced down upon him
and dragged him out of the house and
over to the central station, boots and
all. on charge of larceny
~ ct that man has continued IN the
detective business ever since, and today
there are few better operatives in the
city,"
