X-RAYS IN DETECTIVE WORK
Stolen Ring Located in the Stomach
of the Thief Who Swal-
lowed 1t.

To set a thief to c9tch a thief is a
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.
1t is 10 a novel thing for criminals TO
swallow the evidence OF their crimes,
diamond mines that many a gem has
been rescued from the miners abd0-
men. 1t is. however. a new departure
TO examine a mar 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 fer the originality
Of his researches.
It seems that a negro had formed a
passing attachment for a diamond ring
that he did not own. and, being sur
prised by the legitimate p%ossessor,
promptly swallowed II, 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 di ,mond still in his
possession. AS he strenuously denied
all knowledge of the missing stone, The
chief of police promptly sent for the
municipal electric apparatus. At the
sight OF this. the man, imagining
doubtless that ii was some new meth
Cd Of torture, promptly confessed. The
photograph, however, was taken ann it
revealed the 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.
