According to Professor Hans Gross
Of Berlin valuable clews toward the lie

through an examination of cigar tips.
OF course this applies to those who
smoke cigars the tips of which they
carelessly throw away in the street or
elsewhere.
IF you pick up any tip" he says.
and examine il closely the chances
are that you will be able to learn some
thing rs TO the personality and social
position of the man who threw it away.
In the case of criminals the first point
TO be considered is the manner in which
it was cut off from the cigar II Il
knife or any other instrument WAS used
for this purpose, then this instrument
will doubtless be found on the Grim

animation of the tip will show what
kind of teeth were used for this par

uneven teeth will bite it clumsilv ant
in such a manner as to leave clearly
visible the marks of his incisors. BY

AN OLD CAR HORSE.
Entered at New York Horse Show
Just for a Joke.

PuIdeka Orphan" brushed and camb-
ed from ears to fetlock, proudly strobe
onto the tanbark at the horse shown
company of twenty-five equally we'll
groomed thoroughbreds competing for
blue ribbon honors in the saddle class.
A glance at the catalogue showed the
following entry: ''Puldeka Orphan
by Metropolitan, dam Electricity"
Had the judges read slowly they might
have noticed that Puldeka Orphan is
in rhythm very like pulled car Of
ten" and have learned that ranker
counterfeit never figured in a horse
trade than "Puldeka Orphan" rein
earnation of car-horse and relic of
the Metropolitan Street Railway COM
pany before electricity took the place
of horse motive power.
Brian G. Hughes, practical joker,
has foisted Puldeka Orphan on the
horse show managers, fooled a cred
uious public and scored another joke.
But his horse won no prize.
So complacently had Mr.. Hughes
carried out his plans that after the
exhibition last night the judges were
still unaware of the trick perpetrated
on them. He succeeded in placing as
his entry in competition for prize
against the highest class horses in the
country steeed which formerly
romped in front - of a Fifty-ninth
street crosstown car from East to
North river.
Thousands who have toured the
stalls at the horse show have looked on
Puldeka Orphan and have been none
the wiser. The old car horse was
stalled in No. 603. Mr.. Hughes spared
no expense in decorating her stable. 1t
was covered on each side with red vel
vet Chrysanthemum, roses and Ii
lac were decked about the walls. All
evening two grooms in full livery stood
at each side of the stall.
None of the true-blue thorough
breds received half the attention and
outer show that graced the quarters
of the car horse. Puldeka was ridden
for inspection by Miss Clara Hughes,
Mr.. Hughes 1S-year-old daughter, who
recently graduated from a convent
where she was valedictorian. She has
inherited her fathers love of
joke.
The story of Puldeka Orphan dates
back to last September, when Mr..
Hughes bought her for $115O and sent
her to his country place at Brighton.
There, with proper feeding, the ami
mai showed marked improvement,
and Mr.. Hughes decided to bring her
