The Wild ASS.


The wild ass may almost be said to be
the antthesls of the domestic species. The
one is high-spirited and untamable, the
other the meekest and most submissive of
quadrupeds; the one is as remarkable for
its speed as the other for it's slowness. and
while the wild specimen ranks among the
most graceful animals Of creation, its every
movement typical of the untrammeled free
dom of the desert over which it loves to
roam. and of the unfettered breath Of
heaven which seems to lend it wings, its
subjugated congener is awkward and un-
gainly.
In color the roulan, or wild ass, is
creamy white, shading to fawn on the
back, with a handsome darker stripe run
nlng from wither to tail and a correspond-
ing marking on each forearm. The head
and muzZle are finely nodded the ears less
long and pointed than those in the tame
donkey. the eyes large and prominent and
as Dflsht as those of the gaZelle and the
legs resemble in length and lightness those
of the deer
Occasionally one of these true children of
the desert may be seen in the countries ad-
joining the Rum of Clutch, in a state of
semf-captivity. One which was in the nos
session of an English officer would come tn

THE SPEAKING PORTRAIT.
A New Scheme to Aid Detectives i
Identifying Criminals.

A New Scheme to Aid Detectives in
Identifying Criminals.
From Pearson's Magazine.
Everyone knows that, thanks to the great
Partisan criminal expert, NJ Bertillon. a
criminal who falls into the clutches of the
law more than once stands absolutely no
chance Of hiding his identity if his meas
urements have been taken by the anthro-
pometrical system. But as every criminal
also knows when he is al large this system
is practically useless to his pursuers: the
detective cannot measure the length of a
mans middle finger in a crowd or take an
impression of his thumb. Yet once again
the genius of NJ Bertillon has triumphed
over the Identification difficulty, and he
has come forward with system which ap-
proaches very near perfection.
lie Portrait Parle'' as NJ Bertillon
calls his method, consists in form of a card
that may be carried In the pocket, on which
are noted down those characteristics that
nave the most fixity in the Individual and
the most variability in different people
The anthropometrical system" said NJ
Bertilon, when discussing the subject
with me, "neceSsitates the detention of the
criminal whose measurements are taken
with the aid of compasses, but the verbal
portrait which aims at the criminal at lib
erty may be applied unknown to him and
from a distance.
This description, based on a knowledge
or human anatomy, anyone can master
with little preliminary study, and it is of
SO much precision that it applies solely to
the person 1t represents, to the exclusion
OF all others. 1t IS composed, for each in
d1V1dual, of from ten to fifteen distinctive
signs, which should always be borne in
mind by an officer in search of a law
breaker. The verbal description has the
advantage over a photograph in that 1t can
be turned up in any place at any hour and
transmitted by telegraph telephone"
Examining verbal portrait, we find that
it is divided into three chapters. The first
deals with the color of the eye, hair and
of the forehead, nose right ear and build
of body, the third with an analysis of the
profile and face.
1t does not necessarily follow that be-
cause the chapters are arranged in this or
der the detectives will apply them in the
same order to his criminal. When looking
for his man he carries in his mind only the
most characteristic features-the fixed feat
ures, such as the eyes. nose, forehead or
ear These the criminal cannot alter at
will, but he may dye the color of his hair
or the complexion of his face; he may hide
his mouth under false hair or disguise his
build Of body by padding his clothes or
In other ways. Therefore the officer car
ries in his mind a kind of caricature of
the person to be recognized, concerning
himself at first with only the most exag- !
gerated features and taking no heed of |
those which would be described as aver |
age. Everyone knows how easy it is to 1
recognize some well-kn6wn parsonage from |
q carfcature, which Is far superior to the !
