DETECTIVES ARE BOYS.
Heroes of the Dime Novel stripe Arc
Easily Outdone by Juvenile
Slcuths of Abyssinin.

Alfred Ilg is a Swiss of scientific at
ailments who has made reputation
rs an explorer of Abyssinia. He is also
high in the confidence of King Menelik
and for several years has been one of his
advisors. He is now on furlough in
Switzerland, where he has told re-
markable story to the Swiss newspapers,
states London paper.
He says that the young sons of GER
tain clan, widely scattered over Abys-
sinia, have developed mysterious fac
ulty for the detection of criminals.
When crime is committed one of these
boys, who are called lebachas, is taken
to the scene of the crime.
Here he drinks milk which has been
| sprinkled with green and black powder
and soon falls into trance from which
he heabruptly awakens He runs at top
speed along the paths and in and out
of the houses till he comes upon the
criminal. If he crosses a stream of
water during the journey he must be-
| gin all over again.
Mr.. Ilg gives three illustrations of this
unusual method of detecting criminals.
A house was burned by an incen-
diary. The lebacha, 12 years old, was
taken to the ruins, and after the pre-
liminary mummeres he ran out into the
country for six hours at so rapid pace
that only a few of his attendants could
keep up with him.
Then he turned off the road and into a
field where fellah was at work. The
man was accused of the crime, and
though he denied it he was utterly un-
able to prove an alabi, and finally con-
fessed that he was the criminal
The couriers of the king were travel
ing on foot from Harrar to Adds Ababa,
the capital, when they were joined one
evening by stranger who killed them
as they were sleeping, and made off with
their valuables. A lebacha who was
taken to the scene of the crime trotted
for several hours over the country till
he came to a hut.
The man who occupied it was accused
of the murders, but stoutly denied his
guilt until the property of his victims
was found in his possession.
King Menelik was skeptical of the de-
tective ability of these boys and decided
to make a test of their powers. He i'm.
proved favorable moment to abstract
a jewel from the raiment the queen was
wearing.
1t was not long before she missed the
article, and a great hue and cry was
raised over the theft of one of the
queens jewels. Menelik ordered lie.
bacha to be summoned.
The boy went into the usual trance
and when he came out of it he began 6
tour of the royal apartments. He final
ly entered the private room of the king
where he found the jewel concealed il
his majesty's bed.
Lebachas are no respecters of persons
King Menelili was promptly accused O.
stealing from the queen.

Learned Art in Prison.

Among King Edwards most recent
treasures is a walking stock sent to him
from Sydney by Sir George Dibbs, the
well-known New South Wales states
man. Many years ago Sir George spent
II months in an Australian goal for con-
'empt of court, and it was during these
months of confinement that he first de-
veloped his skill in wood-carving, of
which this stick is one of the latest pro-
ducts. Sir George is an enormous man,
standing six feet five inches in his socks,
and weighing $50 pounds, and he recalls
with amusement the CONSERVATION of
the bailiffs sent to arrest him when he
invited them to take him.

A Partisan friend sends me the follow
ing points from that gay,fashion center:
The short bolero continues to gain
favor, Corduroys and very narrow
striped velveteens are worn, the skirts
made trottoir, and braids and buttons
being the only permissible trimmings
on the charmingly becoming little
boleros.
Every one seems so glad that tho
bolero is again revived, and there can
be no doubt that the average Partisan
figure looks much better when the waist
is defined, with a pouched e feet above
it, especially with the short skirt and
the plain Breton sailor hat, worn well
over the face, softened with the draped
lace veil.
Most of the new short skirts are
trimmed with graduated bands of satin,
velvet, taffeta or breitschwartz, and III
spite of all the beautiful frocks for the
Riviera, the trotteuse skirt and the

Found or down the skirts. In the last
mentioned situation, too, scallops of the
material of the gown, bound round with
the trimming fabric, as, for instance,
cloth edged with silk, are adopted. Rib
bon makes good strappings or bands,
and can be had in such variety that there
is no difficulty in meeting the require
ments in the way of color or relief of the
dress material.
The average woman will certainly
want blue serge for the morning, and a
black cloth frock of some sort for the
afternoons at this time of year. Brown,
of course, is some women's color, and
then 1t may well take the place of black;
but a dress of dark hue is necessity, at
any rate for those who live in London.
1t is good news to the woman who has
So'make the question of utility her first
consideration, that Parisians will be
wearing great deal of black, and
touches of black on almost everything.
Later on, | would suggest various in
expensive materials in the form of ac-
plated and even row, If you
have bought some remnants of soft gray
or black stuff, why not have them ac-
cordion-plaited in preparation for house
frocks for early spring? Such gown
may be ever so simple, with soft band

haps with fringed sash ends. This frock
is SO comparatively inexpensive that 1t

white cloths for afternoon wear on the
Riviera, relieved with a touch of soft,
black satin, oriental for preference.
We cannot all have blouses to match
our skirts, as Dame Fashion says we
should, but we can at least make un-
avoidable contrasts pleasing, and here
the holero, which is coming into fashion
again, is of great assistance to us. 1t is
really q charming garment and can be
composed of anything ynu like.
This little bolero, which in some cases
is almost sleeveless, is one of the best
ways | know of utilizing odd lengths OF
chiffon, jet, embroideries, etc. Some are
cut rather like the old-fashioned zouave
and are extremely becoming with the
wide kid bands which we all love, owing
to the fact that they make the waist
look quite two or three inches smaller
Then there is the question of using
lace, The lace coatee is permissible on
ever so many occasions, but with sala
remnants it is question of cutting your
sat according to your cloth. Therefore
according to the amount of lace at your
aispu,al, you can have short coatee, a
