HOW THUGS HIDE WEAPONS.
Garry Them Everywhere Except In
the Place Where They Are Sup
posed to BE.

"There seems to be one lesson that
men in the service never learn" said a
veteran policeman in discussing the
murder OF Detective Patrick Duffy, &C
cording to the Chicago Inter Ocean,
land that is that the gun-fighting
crook, who is ready to shoot to avert
arrest, never hides his weapon in his
hip pocket. Still the average police
man, in attempting to capture known
desperate criminal, is generally CON
tented with 'frisk' Of what is known
as the pistol pocket
NEARLY every officer who has met
unexpected death, injury, or danger
while attempting arrests has been tax
en- unawares by the production of
weapons from unexpected places.
Billy IIalloran, one Of the bravest
men the Chicago police department
ever knew, had thoroughly searched
Mike Lynch, whom he had arrested on
a serious change. At least he thought
so. They had gone several blocks on
the way to the station when Lynch
drew a revolver and shot Halloran
dead. 1t is believed by some that he
had the weapon in his hat.
"Gun-fghting crooks carry their i'm
plements everywhere except in the re-
ceptacles provided by the tailors. Up
their sleeves, under their trousers
belts, under their arm-pits and even in
their shoes and other places where a
careless search will not reveal them.
But since the shooting of Duffy the
detectives, in dealing with desperate
men, are more yiglant in searching for
weapons"

INDIANS OF WELSH ORIGIN
Customs and Language of Aboriginen
Indicate Descent from
Europeans.

VI late there has been considerab BILE
interest manifested in Great Britain
relative to the Welsh settlers in the
United States. The matter, however,
lacks the great interest caused in the
eighteenth century by the statement
That tribe of Welsh Indians had been
discovered, states the Chicago Chron-
1cle. In the seventeenth century John
Josselyn, in his Voyages to New Eng
land" mentioned that the customs Of
the inhabitants resembled those Of
ancient Britons, and Sir Thomas Her
bert, another traveller of the same date,
In his Travels" gave Welsh words In
use among these Indians.
A century later reports from several
traders and others were received of
an Indian tribe that possessed manu-
script, spoke Welsh and retained cere-
monies of Christian worship. Among
other information then published was
the report of Capt. Abraham Chaplain,
OF Kentucky, that his garrison near the
Missouri had been visited by Indians
who conversed in Welsh with some
Welshmen in his company. Those
Indians were thought to be descend
ants of a colony said to have been
formed by Madoc son of Owen Gwyn-
edd, on his discovery of America in
ITO.
