CASES OF "MISSING PERSONS" ARE
AMONG MOST NOTED MYSTERIES

cause is and have nothing to do except to
watch the Iikeliest places for the miss
ing person to appear in.
But these do not come under the head
of mysterious" disappearances. After
embezzlement and insanity have been
eliminated the case becomes a mystery.
! and 1t is up to- the detectives to solve
it. 1t is not a problem until then.
The explanation Of disappearances is
usually the simplest thing in the world.
The fascination attaching to such stories
is not in their solution. which is usually
commonplace. but in the long-standing
mystery.
A case of this sort was that of a we'll
to-do Irishman in Brooklyn, who vanished
about fifteen years ago. 1t was a sum-
mer evening, and he was sitting out on
the stoOp of his house with his wife and
children. He had no hat on and was in
his shirt sleeves and smoking clay pipe
About 1880 he arose, stretched him
self and said: Il guess I'll go down to
Casey's and get a drink" From that
day he was never seen alive by anybody
in America
The fact that he was in his shirt sleeves
and had no hat increased the mystery
of his disappearance. He was a big, we'll
built outstanding Irishman. well on in life
'-''d ~ i-S'4N'S'AiS sAppSo- SAiA't' It was dS
mysterious a case as has ever been
known in New York.
The solution was found when. a month
later. a cable message said that he was
dying in a little country town in Ireland.
What had happened was simply this:
Unknown to his family. he had been
drinking good deal. and. at the saloon
to which he went, he met a friend who
was thoroughly inebriated and was going
to Ireland in the morning After having
had enough drinks to get him in a similar
state. nothing seemed more reasonable
to him than to go with his friend to Ire
land. The friend bought him coat and
hat and they went aboard the steamer
together. The debauch ended in his
death
The strangest case in the annals of
police departments is that of Policeman
Judge. Every detective will tell you that
nothing like it has ever been known.
Probably, if the secret ever becomes
known. the case will turn out to be quite
ordinary. but as a mystery il has never
been approached.
James J. Judge, of a New York pre-
cinct disappeared on the night of De-
cember 2, 1910. He was in full uniform:
he had Just drawn his pay; he was a
sober and respectable man. The last seen
of him was In a saloon in New York,
where he took two drinks of whisky.
The Washington herald., 1911-02-12

He left there to go home and was never
seen again.
Never Seen Since.
He was a married man with family
and had no bad habits. One of the
theories on which the detectives worked
was that. as the taxiCab strike was on
at the time. some sympathizer might have
wayiaid Judge. He had been on duty
during the strike along East Twenty
seventh street. The practical impossible
ity OF killing a big policeman in full uni
form without some trace of the crime be-
ing left put an end to that theory. II
Judge had voluntarily gone away it was
a practical fmpossibility for him to do it
in uniform. Every circumstance con-
nected with the disappearance made such
a theory untenable. He was a man six
feet high and striking in appearance. 1t
is as strange a mystery as has ever been
known either to the New York police or
the private detectives. The hospitals and
The Washington herald., 1911-02-12

rivers were searched without result
Judge vanished from the face of the earth
as il he had never lived.
OF course, the historic case is that OF
Charley Ross, the little boy who disap-
peared in Germantown on July l. 1874
In that case the parents acted on the
advice of the police and refused to have
any communica ton with the kidnappers
Their refusal to answer all propositions
for ransom doubtless caused the death
of the little fellow. who is now believed
to have been murdered by his abductors
at a time when the pursuit had grown
SO warm that his presence might have
led to their detection. Several years af-
terward an attempt was made to rob the
house Of Judge Van Brunt of the Supreme
Court, who lived in New York The
Judges son and some neighbors caught
the two burglars in the. act and shot
them. As they were dying they were
recognized by the police as Mosher and
Douglass, the men suspected of having
stolen Charley Ross. There is practically
no doubt that they were tire kidnappers,
but their secret died with them.

where there is something sufficiently in
tereSting about the disappearance to gel
il in the newspapers.
So common is it that whenever Some
dismembered body is found in a river oil
in trunk, scores of people shoot up al
over the country. identifying the body As
that of their lost daughter or sister, who
up to that time, nobody knew mad disap-
peared.
There was a famous case of that sort in
New England about thirteen years ago
when the body of a murder victim was
positively identified by all her family as
that of Grace Marian Perkins. Nobody
outside of the family had known that
Miss Perkins had disappeared. The prep
arations for the funeral had all been
made when Miss Perkins turned up. Her
disappearance had been due to love
affair; she was bitterly angry with her
parents for rushing into print and adver-
tising her escapade all over the world:
but a wedding was the result. so 1t may
be said that this was one of the cases
that ended happily.
The Arnold Case.
Doubtless many people unfamiliar with
the commonness of mysterious disappear
ances- blamed the police for their readi-
ness TO abandon the search for Dorothy
Arnold. of New York, a few days ago.
II wasn't cynicism; it was experience.
The public, knowing nothing about the
disappearance industry except when some
sensational case like that of Miss Arnold
forces it on their attention, is utterly
unaware of the frequency of such cases
and of the fact that their origin has been
reduced nearly to a science.
1t is hardly too much to say that an ex-
perienced detective can tell in twenty-four
hours whether a given case of disappear
ance presents any real clements of mys
terry or whether it falls in the category of
several well-known causes presenting no
elements OF mystery whatever.
In the first place, the great majority of
cases can be aScertained in
a day to be the result of business crook
edness. A man who cannot pay his debts
or who has been taking flights with the
firms money usually finds II safest to
disappear before the crash comes. Elimi-
mating this, the most common cause of

that of the half-crazy person who wan

portrait OF an early American aero
naut by a royal aCademician has come
to light in England and is reproduced
in the Connoisseur, of London both in the
color tones Of the original pastel and in
a smaller plate from an early engraving
after the original. The reproductions
show it to be a very living portrait, and
an account OF the portrait and of the sit
ter is given in the magazine by the pre-
sent owner OF the pastel, G. H. Gabb,
p G. S. who says that it is probably
the most important portrait extant of
one of the earliest pioneers in aerosta-
tion.
The portrait is OF DR.. John Jefries,
who on January :, 1855. crossed the Eng
lish Channel in a balloon with COM
nanion. M. BIanchard-the first men to
do the stunt. DR.. Jeffries performed the
feat in the interest of science and de-
frayed the whole cost himself. amounting
TO more than G10G.
The portrait was shown at the Royal
Academy OF 1876. catalogued as Portrait
az DR.. Jefries as Crossing the English
Channel and it was engraved in the
same year by Caroline Watson as a
frontispiece for DR.. Jeffries account OF
his voyage, which was published after
being read before the Royal Society.
The portrait was done in pastel by
John Russell, r. A, who has been called
the prince of pastel painters, and 1t is
mentioned in a monograph on Russell
by Dr. Williamson as an important miss
ing work OF the artist, which. says Mr..
Gabb' has only recently been discovered
by and is now in the possession of the

What becomes OF missing people:
| After you have read a few noveletteS,
mostly English your reply will be,
promptly. Hardly anybody disappears.
Anybody who does is an heiress who has
left home because she is not appreciated
there and is met in the streets by some
body who offers 10 assist her without
knowing who she is and who subse-
quentIy turns out to be a barOnet in
disguise.
Or after you have read the r7re-the
very rare-accounts of mysterious disap-
pearances that get into the newspapers.
you are likely to say. Very few people
disappear. Anybody who does is an heir
ess whose family are there with the proof
that she never saw a man in her life. but
who in course of time turns out to have
corresponded cIandestinely with every
body she had ever known from Florence
to Paris
Or if you don't read noveIettes and are
not fond of the front page in newspapers.
your idea OF mysterious disappearances
may be that nobody disappears except
now and then somebody who is kidnapped
or somebody who falls into the clutches
of that imaginary trust invented by the
magazines and known-to them-as the
White Slave Syndicate.
Or you may think that nobody diSap-
pears except little children who are kid
mapped for ransom or siXteen-year-old
girls who are allowed by foolish parents
to visit moving picture shows.
But whatever your habit of mind may
be, you probably think that mysterious
are rare.
Regular Occurrences.
1t is a mistake. Nothing more common
is known to the police or the detective
agencies. 1t is commoner than pocket
picking and not much more exceptional
than intoxication. So common is it that
in some cities there is squad, working

known as the Disappearance Squad"
and headed by a police lieutenant 1t

daily on the cases Of mysterious disap-

So common is il that the Pinkerton De-
tective Agency keeps a collection of
scraps on Missing Persons Looking

conclusion that somebody disappears
every day. 1t must be remembered, too.
that this collection includes only cases
