could not possibly occur under the present
system. 10 matter how resoureeful the
crook is, he cannot alter certain lines of
tie face. He can don wig, false whiskers,
daub his face with grease paint and stick
on false nose perhaps, yet he cannot
alter the general contour Of the eyelids
and the shape of the eye. They remain
the same from birth until death. Then,
again, the ear is a feature which never
changes. The ear of a baby at birth re-
mains the same all through life, and We
can spot the one VIC are seeking in
crowd, no matter how big.
These are few Of tn. things we teach
our men, and the fruits Of our labor are
returning to Us in ample proportions
Our students have entered enthusiastically
into the line of study and research. and
already We find them reaching forth for
themselves and eagerly reading every
treatise on scientific detection of crime

twenty years. the 'IOng stretch" the de-
tectives said would come to him finally
falling to his lot.
This is but one of many instances where
criminals have been picked up and con-
victed when the detectives had but meagre
clews to work upon Nowadays the
science Of Identification is so perfected
that we have few or no detectives in the
service who do not know how to apply
its methods
The method5 taught IN our school for
Detectives are such that when we
graduate a student he should be able to
90 forth AM pick out any maj he is sent
after from a crowd of a thousand if needs
be. We do not adhere to the old methods

thick set chap with dark hair and eyes
and swarthy complexion" Instead the
description card which the detective has
scanned is so full and complete that he
has in mind a faithful likeness Of the
person sought The detective has made a
study of the criminals ear. He can tell
at glance any popularity that might be
in the general contour Of this organ The
eyes, eyelids and eyebrows have been
faithfully portrayed, as have the nose and
forehead and TIE manner IN which the hair
grows. Tie mouth is so minutely and
scientifically described chat the average
detective could ordinarily pick up his man
after reading this description alone. The
forehead is another portion Of the face
that has its peculiarities, and there are
hardly any two men in the country whose
.forehoads are Identical

such animals as the chimpanzee, hedgehog,
lion, lioness and cubs, otter, pine marJen,
rat, squirrel, beaver and deer. The objects
shown were taken from cases and given as
much space as possible to give freedom Tor
handling them and learning their size,
shape and peculiarities.
Another time the subject was birds, and
the blind visitors were reminded that the
birds, unlike the animals they had been
handling, depend upon two legs, and that
the hands should be passed carefully from
the head downward to the tail or feet.
This hint was sufficient to prevent any
damage
'Many of the comments" said Mr.. Deas,
were interesting, some amusing. but they
were never absurd With several of the
adults, and more especially the children,
the handling Of the alLatross was an l.
mediate reminder of The Rhine of the
Ancient Mariner special attention was
aroused in consequence, and quotations
were showered upon the impassive speci-
men. The ivory feeling of the narwhaTs

blind from birth similarity to the ivory
knob of her umbrella. and caused her to
handle her treasure with curiosity as she
left the building. The statement that the
