CRIMINALS IN FRANCE.
Curious Devices Used TO Land Them
Safely In Jail.

Curious Devices Used to Land Them
Safely In Jail.
Scarcely a day passes without pic.
ture appearing In the French press of
q prisoner being led on to the station
by a policeman and the description.
1.-THE Apache being taken away hand
cuffed by the agents. As a matter
of fact. handouts are altogether out of
date In France and are never used.
Instead of the bracelets every po-
liceman carries q ''cabri0let," which IL
a very rough and massively made mr.
ticle resembling huge watch chain
some ten inches long with a stout
wooden crossbar at either end. An
expert can slip this over the wrist of
an offender In twinkling and with
both the crossbars in his hand has
only to give It twist to intlict the
most excruciating pain and compel In.
slant and lamblike submission.
Another common method Of prevent
ing escape is to make the prisoner
place both his hands in his side trouser
pockets and then pass string around
his wrists and around his waist and
bid him march. He can walk at q
very smart pace. but any attempt to
run out of shambling tr0t immedi-
ately brings him down, nose to the
pavement.
II no string Is handy all the brace
buttons Of the trousers are cut OF and
the culprit is made again to put his
hands In his pockets. As In the for
mer case, he can only walk, since 80
soon as he frees his hands his neither
garments fall about his legs and he Ia
"entrave."
Few Of these devices are apparent to
the casual passerby. who often won
ders at the passive docility with which
some villainous looking individual un-
der arrest follows his captor to the
station. Sometimes on a country road
one may meet a couple Of gendarmes
on foot or on horseback, leading q
prisoner between them.
This Is in obedience to a quaint reg
ulation whereby prisoners are never
sent by train from place to place. as
there are no funds set apart for rail-
way fares. Consequently four or ave
times as much is spent in food. drink
and lodging for the escort as would
be for the ticket. but the regulations
are observed. In such cases the pc.
lice often use the "poucettes," though
strictly speaking this instrument IL
not legal.
It is a sort of loose thumbscrew.
which is fixed SO as to keep the two
thumbs comfortably together 80 long
as the man does not struggle. but a
twist of the string held by one Of the
police Is enough to destroy any wish
to escape.-London Standard.

LAST week two republican
papers Of Kootenai county, the
Journal and Press, both OF CGur
d'Alene, committed themselves
unquali Iiedly in favor of the
candida y OF Ex-Governor John
T. Morrison of Boise for the
gubernatorial nomination. The
attitude OF the newspapers is
believed to indicate the political
trend OF the people, and the step
taken by these two papers gives
to a south Idaho man that
much support from the north
and removes the probability OF
that support going to a north
ern manor any other-during
the primary campaign. Both OF
these papers state they would
have preferred a northern man
had a northern candidate
appeared unopposed from this
section of the state. But there
are four candidates in the north,
and up to the present time three
OF them have not seen fit to
retire in the interest of the
fourth. Hence the north, being
divided against itself, is open for
successful invasion by a strong
candidate from the south. There
is time yet for three OF the
northern men to withdraw, but
in view of .what has already
happened the probability OF this
being done seems rather remote.

had attacked other women shortly be-
in these cases were servants, and
none Of them was hurt much. Mr..
Iselin's rewards, however, have such
large, stout strings to them that it Is

Then the mayor of Aiken threw his
hat into the ring, dguratively speak
ing. He came out with the announce
ment that he proposed to probe the
matter to the very bottom, and that he
was going to pursue his own private
and personal investigation of the af-
fair. He added that he was not going
to take any one into his confidence,
but was going to get at the truth and
would make public in due time what.
ever he found out. He declares he
does not propose to have the reputa-.
ton Of Aiken suffer in the eyes Of the
world, and he is going to clear it Of
every stigma that has been put upon
1t by the Beach affair, no matter
whose feelings are hurt,
That Is the present status of the
mystery. If 1t ever is unraveled and
the solution gets into print it seems
likely it will. be one extreme or the
other. Either it will resolve itself
into case Of unprovoked and brutal,
assault by a negro. or else it may drag
to light various society skeletons. As
it stands now it has all the elements
Of mystery that are essential to the
first 1000 words Of fine Sherlock
Holmes story. All that is lacking Is
the solution-aud it would take more
than Conan Doyle to invent climax
that exceeds in thrills any OF half a
