6os0 Criminals Scheme
to Escape Detection


depend upon eternal vigilance and
chance.
And many officers Of the law believe
that luck forms their main reliance.
Every offender really expects to be
caught sometimes, but fixes the date
in the far distant future, just as the
average mortal anticipates death with
out actually trying to forecast the
precise moment.
Most offenders make an effort to get
away from the scene Of their crimes II
they are in any way practiced in law
breaking. Burglars, thieves and rob-
bers, as well as predatory murderers.
are a wandering set, plying their
trades in divers cities and sundry COM
munities. These commit some illegal
act and flee.
Swindlers, bank wreckers and
murderers, men with a grievance, are
usually the ones that carefully plot
main near the scene Of the outrage and
still be undetected by the officers of
the law.
1t is the clan of fleeing criminals that
calls for the knowledge of the law
breaker in hiding. The pursuer must
know the habits Of the game or else
he will be ~bilked" at every turn.
A disguise is generally the first thing
which the offender procures. A diff
ferent suit of clothes, either long or
extremely short hair, different gait,
sometimes scars are made with a razor
all these are but commonplace plots
of the denizens Of the underworld. The
criminals who have prices on their de-
voted heads are doubly wary. They
never travel as hoboes, but obtain
money by fair means or foul and travel
in first class style.
In going from place to place some
few methods of trying to block pursuit
are in vogue, but nearly all Of them
are defective and unreliable. For the
most part the hunted one depends on
his luck"
Doubling back on the trail is one
way. The criminal carefully notes all
the people behind him, quickens his
pace, drops into a store or alley, tacks
back to his first position, and, getting
some point Of vantage. watches for any
persons who may seem to be bewil-
dered or puzzled by the tactics. OF
course il he finds a person coming in
his rear whose appearance tallies with
an individual first noted he is "on."
After that 1t is a game of hide and
seek
Usually the criminal attempts to re-
member the executive officers Of the
law. He keeps his eyes and ears open
and watches for familiar faces. In the
meantime he depends upon his guiding
star to steer him clear of unwelcome
guests.
Nights afford opportunities for go

THE wELL-BRED WOMAN.
Perfection of Her Training Is Indi-
Gated by the Way She Sits
Down and Arises.

"My DEAR" said the old lady, "it IS
worse than crime; it is i'll bred"
Nothing points out the well-bred
woman more quickly than the posi-
tion she takes when she sits down.
The stamp of vulgarity is marked upon
the woman who sits with her knees
spread far apart; lack of refinement
is shown by knees crossed offensive
ly; lack of ease by stiff and constrained
positions of the shoulders; a general
carelessness and indifference by the
very common fault of sitting in the
shoulders" that is, of doubling the
spine so that the upper rather than
the lower part of it rests against the
back of the chair.
The body should be placed we'll back
upon the seat, chair, sofa or whatever
It may be. The feet should rest on the
oor. one somewhat in front of the
other, because it is easier to rise from
that position. The head must be kept
well up and the chest poised slightly
forward.
The lower part of the spine may be
pressed against the frame of the chair,
but if one, after sitting awhile, should
need to rest little more, the shoulders
may also touch upon the same support.
The hands should remain as they nat
urally fall from this position, hang
ing at the sides, or they may be placed
easily over the arms or back of the
chair, or allowed to lie reposefully on
the lap.
To rise properly from correct sit
ting position there should be several
preparatory movements.
The chest is first poised far forward
and at the same time the foot is drawn
back under the seat. The foot drawn
in should be the one opposite from
the direction to be taken in starting
up.
As you rise throw the weight firmly
upon the foot in the rear. As the body
comes to its full height change the
weight to the forward foot, so that
the other foot merely touches the
floor very lightly. This brings you to a
standing position, ready to walk easily
IN the direction you are going.
Ugly sitting positions and awkward
movements in rising will disappear If
these principles are followed.-N. Y

daughters grew to be young women.
Misfortunes came when Rachel and
her sister, Lady Troubridge-she
who writes plays-were respectively
II and 10 years old. Their mother
brought the two to London and
sought to elle out the modest living
which her husband, still in Norfolk,
managed to give her, by placing her
daughters in milliner's shop.
Luck came first in the person of
Adeline, duchess of Bedford. The
dowager duchess bought a hat one
day of an exceedingly pretty girl
who happened to be Rachel Gurney,
and as she wore it continued mean
while to think of the charming girl
who sold it to her. She looked into
the shop another day and still an
other, asked n few leading questions
and discovered Rachel Gurneys sto-
ry. Thereupon she adopted her.
The Gurneys concluded they could
support one girl if the other were
well provided for and permitted
Rachel to become the legally-adopted
daughter of Adeline, duchess of
Bedford. Lady Troubridge's mar
riage was indirectly the result of
her sisters going into the haugty
Bedford family. The late duke was
devoted to the child, whom he found
| in his old age.
1t was, however, as a comparative

came to the young earl of Dudley
Her position in society was secure.
her beauty and charm universally
recognized. She was and is known
as particularly vivacious and at
tractive woman with great gift for
entertaining. Lord Dudley had
money enough and to spare. He

pened to fall in love.

Ashland, Ore, Oct. 15.-The most
destructive fire in the history Of
northern California visited the town
of Klamathon, Siskyou county, Tues
day, and wiped out the entire busi-
ness portion of the place, a new saw
mill, sash, door and box factory and
more than 100000 feet of sawed
lumber, and did damage estimated at

one hotel on back street. A private
car which was on the railroad tracks
and which brought number of west
ern capitalists out a few days ago to
inspect the building operations of the
klamath Lake railroad, was saved
with its contents.
The confiagration started in the

OLD MAN WAS BRAVE.
Two Members of Gang that Tried
TO Rob n Farmhouse arc Killed.

Cleveland, Oct. 15.-In a secluded
farm house on a country road two
miles from the village of Rochester,
Lorain county, terrible battle was
fought at o'clock last night between
three aged men named Meach and six
desperate robbers. AS the result of
the battle two of the robbers were
shot to death, one probably wounded
and two of the Meach brothers were
badly beaten.
There are three of the Meach broth
ers, Loren, aged nearly so; John,
aged about 20. and Jarvis, aged 65.
The old men are said to be rich.
About o'clock, while John was in
the barn, he was surrounded by three
robbers and bound. Going into the
house the robbers knocked Jarvis
Meach into insensibility by blows on
the head. John Meach had worked
himself free from his bonds, however,
ard securing a shotgun cautiously
stole upon the three burglars who
were working on the safe. He shot
two of them to death and fatally
founded the third man. The three
companions of the robbers who were
watching outside the house, realizing
their danger, Immediately got away.
The third of the brothers, Loren. is
bedridden and could offer no resist
mce, so he was not molested. The
authorities are securing the neigh
borhood and great excitement pre-
walls. The would-be robbers secured
no money.

A STEAMER SINKS.
Tho G. II. Lockwood Goes Down In
LniSe Eric - Ten Members OF Crew
Missing Nine Others Rescued.

Ashtahua, o., Oct. 1j.-In the Sc
we're storm on Lake Erie Monday
night, the steamer e. B. Lockwood
sunk in about 13 fathoms of water,
15 miles west by north from Ashta
bula. There was crew of 10 aboard.
OF those nine have reached here, as
follows: C. NJ. Saph, captain, West
Bay City, Mich; Mrs. Saph. steward;

David Burns, chief engineer, Marine
City, Mich.
Henry Roshman, second engineer,
Fair Haven, Mich.
Joseph Poree, oiler. Fair Haven.
Fred Green, fireman, Marine City.

There are also among those whose
safety is in doubt one fireman and
two deckhands who shipped at Erie.
The &. p. Lockwood is n wooden
vessel built in 1890, and is owned by
j. c. Gilchrist, of Cleveland. She is
2s5 feet long and carries 1900 tons
of ore. She has been in the ore trade
the most of the season. prior to this
trip. This trip she was carrying 10s,-
600 bushels of wheat from Duluth to
Buffalo.
When it was seen that she was
sinking and that there was no hope,
the crew left in the lifeboats. The
ten of the crew who have not been
heard from left the boat first in the
largest of the two lifeboats. When
the captain and the others who are
now in this port left the ship, the
others were about 200 feet away.
They were riding the waves nicely.
The captain and those with him in
their lifeboat reached a point near
the entrance to Ashtabula Harbor,
and there their little boat was taken
in tow by the steamer Grammer,
which had been lying outside.
On the way from the wreck to port,
Capt. Saph and his crew had rough
experience. 4 man fell overheard
and one of the oars was lost. The
man with difficulty was rescued.

THE COUNTESS DUDLEY.
Wife of Irciand's New Lieutenant
Governor Once Trimmed Mil
1incry in London.

Countess Dudley, formerly Rachel
Gurney, has not always been favored
of fortune. She who is the new mis-
tress of the vice-regal lodge in Dub
lin and therefore first lady in Ire
land, once upon time trimmed hats
as apprentice to n London milliner.
Lady Dudley and her good-looking
husband. the new viceroy@of Ireland,
afford the English nobility one of
its prettiest romances. 1t is the
old story of love and poverty. Lady
Dudley was well born, although not
of such titled stock as Earl Dud-
ley boasted. The Gurneys were an
ancient Quaker family of bankers in
Norfolk and the father of Lady Dud-
ley was very wealthy until his
