TRACED BY HIS CIGAR.
The Newest CriminaIogy Amounts to aStudy
of Cigar Stumps.

According to Professor Hans Gross,
of Berlin, clues toward the detection of
criminals may be obtained through an
examination of cigar ends. OF course
this applies to those who smoke cigars
the ends of which they carelessly
throw away in the streets or elsewhere.
'If you pick up any end" he says,
"and examine it closely the chances
are that you will be able to learn some
thing as to the personality and social
position OF the man who threw it away.
In the case of criminals the first oO.nt
to be considered is the manner in
which it was cut off from the cigar. If
a knife or any other instrument was
used for the purpose, then this instru-
ment will doubtless be found on the
criminal. If, on the other hand, it
was bitten off with the teeth, a thor
Ough examination of the tip will show
what kind of teeth they were.
ga man with a row of even teeth will
bite ,otf the end of his cigar squarely
and evenly, whereas one with jagged.
uneven teeth will bite it clumsily and
in such manner as to leave clearly
visible the marks of his incisOrs. By
comparing the marks on cigar ends
with the teeth of suspected criminals
prosecuting officers and detectives will
be able to obtain much information
which they could not possibly obtain
in any other way" The police, says
foreign exchange. do not thank Prof.
Gross for this suggestion, since they
are afraid that new duty may be i'm
posed on tham-thau of looking out
carefully for cigar ends which may be
thrown into the streets.

A LAWYERS Conscience Line.

zone man in his time plays many
parts"
AS lawyer, Mir. Stanley, of Kansas,
defended negro murderer, and after
his sentence wrote to the governor a
strong Endorsement of the Negroes APP
plication for a pardon. Now, as Gov
ernor Stanley, of Kansas, he has had
to pass upon a new application for his
clients pardon, and his own letter,
written as a lawyer, has been laid be-
fore him.
But he refuses to grant the pardon
and says that as governor it is his
right and duty to view the matter 'in
an entirely different light"
This raises the very interesting
though by no means new question In

clients fee buy and what does it leave

Famous Prisoner Dead.

NEW YORK, Sept 1.-THE Bellevue
Hospital patient known as the ''man
with the iron mask" is dead. Thomas
Oliver Colt was his name. He was re-
lated to the family of gunmakers of
that name and was born in Connect
cut At the age of 10, while playing
ball he was struck in the face with a
bat, his cheek bones being fractured
and his nose broken. Erysipelas fol-
lowed and the nose was lost, as was a
portion of his face He was brought
to Bellevue Hospital by his parents,
the head of the surgical division of that
institution being Professor Thomas C.
Sabine, who heard the story and said
he would make the boy a nose. The
result was the first Sabine operation,
as it is now known.
Colts left hand was placed on his
face, and the third finger relieved of
the nail and placed on the bridge of
the nose. 1t took two months to grow
there. while it was held in position by
plaster cast. and then It was cut from
the hand at the second joint. Thirty
two operations aud two years in the
hospital gave a new face to Colt.
IN 1895 he married Miss Plate of
Orange, y. J. She said she recipro-
Gated his affection because of his mind.
In November, 1896, he shot her in Jer-
sey City and then shot himself. Both
lived and he was tried for attempted
murder. He was convicted and SEN
fenced to fifteen years in the peniten-
tiary. After serving two years he was
pardoned.
He took every means of concealing
his features when in public. In August
he was admitted to Bellevue Hospital
suffering from Bright's disease. He
was fearful that other patients would
see his face. so he kept it muffled and
became known to the other patients
as the imam with the iron mask.p
