of this victory Pope Alexander Ill,

turned. The sentence delivered by the
doge on the occasion was literally,

THE general public is not aware OF
the carefully worked out system by
which the large" jewelry houses con-
tinue to protect their splendid wares
long after these have been sold and
passed out of their hands," said a de-
tective, discussing daring modern bur
glaries. 'Mostlarge establishments deal
ing in precious metals and gems have
a carefully organized and very efficient
detective system. which makes II easy
for patron TO recover stolen goods
without charge and with little or no de-
lay In the Institution of the search. In
the safes of these large jewel houses
are minute descriptions of every piece
of valuable jewelry which goes out
from the establishment. Each piece is
numbered too. When the gems are
missed the patron telephones the shop
in which the articles were purchased.
At once a special detective, thoroughly
acquainted with the business in hand
and armed with a detailed description
of the jewelry. is hurried to the scene
of action. This is without expense to
the client."-New York Press.
