ix-RAYS IN DETECTIVE WORK
Stolen Ring Located in the Stomach of the Thief Who Swal-
 lowed It. aAt su

To set thief to catch thief is proposition that is as old as the hills, but to set the X rays to locate" the stolen property is an achievement that Sherlock Holmes might dream about, says the New York Medical Journal. It is not a novel thing for criminals to swallow the evidence of their crimes, and the fact Is so we'll known at the diamond mines that many a gem has been rescued from the miners abdo- men. It is, however. new departure to. examine a man with the idea of de- tecting in his stomach jewelry that had been swallowed to avoid detection, and the chief of police at Davenport, Ia., deserves full credit for the originality of his researches.
 It seems that negro had formed a passing attachment for diamond ring that he did not own, and, being sur prised by the legitimate possessor, promptly swallowed it. notwithstand- ing the heavy setting that surrounded the stone. This was suspected at once, and the culprit was forthwith locked up in jail with the diamond still in his possession. As he strenuously denied all knowledge of the missing stone,o the chief of police promptly sent for the municipal electric apparatus. At the sight of this, the man, imagining doubtless that 1t was some new meth cd of torture. promptly confessed. The photograph, however, was taken and 1t revealed she position of the ring. This the negro was willing to return as a compromise if, as the report states, "the doctors could devise some means of producing it, and they certainly could.
