Snuff and a Crook.

Robert Pinkerton once told a story
Of his father. the founder of the de-
tective agency. which illustrates the
elder Pinkerton's caution. A noted
criminal was detained In Pinkerton's
Chicago Office. The elder Pinkerton
left the room and when he returned
took the precaution Of holding q re-
volver in front Of him ready for use.
He saw the criminal standing by the
door with a snuffbox he had picked
up from Pinkerton's desk In his hand.
This is good snuff" affably re-
marked the crook as he took a sniff.
"For the eyes or the nose?" asked
Pinkerton. who knew that the crook
had intended to blind him In an effort
to escape.
