Still Demand Home Rule.

But one thing remained unchanged
namely. the demand of the great mass
of the people for home rule. Only one
reason was against it. and it was that
home rule must not be enacted because
a section Of Ulster was opposed 20 it.
and threatened violence and revolution
out the will of the majority It was
ridiculous to say that Ulster was against
home rule only four counties out Of
nine being against 1t.
AS for the talk of revolution. history
would repeat itself. There was nothing
in the shape of violent utterances and
threats of revolution which they heard
today which English people did not hear
at various periods for the last 100 years.
But the threats came to nothing. because
in every case in the past IT was found
that the measure attacked, when Passed
into law. was a just measure. If. when
home rule was passed, the Irish par

Detectives Able to Distinguish.

| DR.. Bertillon says his own detectives
on duty at the railway waiting rooms

| individual likely to be arrested in the
next half hour by some offense asains,

taught his agents. since any expensive

II foreigner. seems capable of imposing
indefinitely on even such presumed ex-
perts Is hotel managers and servants.
But an outsider never deceiyes, even f-r
| Ave minutes, any OF his own country
| men. and this is perhaps the reason
| why he enrolls himself as an ''interna-
tional.'
After dismissing contemptuous,y the
! idea Of gentleman thieves, DR.. Bertillon
remarks that each one has his specially.

stated by DR.. Bertillon is that, however

that they are far from irreproachable
as soon as their clothes and boots are
stripped, anybody in the anthropo-
metrfcal service can testify.
Recruited in Prisons.
Summing up, DR.. Bertillon declares that
the elegant. redoubtable thief OF romance
exists only In the newspapers. Bands are
generally recruited while undergoing pun
ishment in prison. and moro often man
age to rub shoulders with the wealthy
classes through tho introduction Of femi-

The moral IL that these gentry depend for
success principally on the accident OF be-

true that II IL best to set thief to catch
