not upon the list of those Investigated.

despoiler, as established by his own con-
fession and the
Italian Clears Up exact agreement
Murky Mystery. found 70 ND upon upon the
glass case with that of his own thumb,
when taken into custody by the Italian
police cleared up the murky mystery
He maintained that he entered the
Louvre, together with other workmen,
Monday morning, made his way unob-
served to the Mona Lisa, removed it
from its hanging. carried it to the stair
way where the frames were found, cut
the painting loose from its casing, con-
cealed it in his blouse and persuaded
passing workman to open the door Tor
him without SO much as seeing a guard
around. Once outside the Louvre, he pro-
ceeded to his lodging house, a nest for
colony of italian workmen. where he hid
the picture and went on with his regular
work-that of house painter and glazier.
He continued to ply his trade for more
than two years, a thing worth to him a
tremendous fortune concealed in the false
bottom of his wooden trunk, before try
ing to dispose Of 1t.
Only once was the suspicion of the po-
lice directed upon him. But how he
escaped that once is another mystery.
Peruggia had been employed at the
Louvre as a glazier and had been in
trusted with the work Of framing some
of the most costly masterpieces. In Oc-
tober. 1911. Prof. Pierre Marcel of the
Ecole des Beaux-Arts wrote an open let
ter to the paper Figaro suggesting that
trace Of the criminal was to be sought
among the Louvre glaciers. The director
OF painting took the suggestion, obtained
the names Of those so employed and for
merly SO employed. upon which list ap-
peared the name Of Peruggia, who. with
the rest was subject to an examination
and house search. The mystery is that
the police did not take the finger prints
of these men for comparison, as had been
done at the first investigation.
Peruggia's downfall came with his at
tempt to dispose of his spoil. He wrote
November 2S, 1913, to Alfred Geri, owner
of the Galleria d Arte e Moderna. at Flor
ence, dealer in art works, Offering, un-
der the name of Leonardo, to sell him
the Mona Lisa, which he explained, as a
patriotic Italian, he felt ought to be re-
turned to Italy, the land Of it's produc-
ton. This plea, strengthened to one of
patriotic bitterness that rich Paris should
not be decorated with the spo.ls of Italy,
robbed during the times of Napoleon, he
maintained after his arrest.
Geri sought counsel from Prof Giovan-
nj Poggi, director Of the Florence gal
leries. AS a result Of his conference he
answered the letter from Paris enterin 3
heartily into the writer's proposals and
sentiment. finally arranging a meeting in
Italy, which took place at Flo. ence De-
cember IL, when the lost Mona Lisa was
drawn from her hiding place under the
false trunk bottom and returned to the
world after her long secluSion. Nor has
the Mona Lisa smile lost aught of its

without the Louvre gates. As the months
spied by while the endeavors OF the police
proved vain and not even rumors came
of Mona Lisa in foreign lands, all hope
that the picture would ever be recovered
was given up. 1t was concluded that
the work had been destroyed. The fate
of Mona Lisa was put to the account of

Boundless was the enthusiasm, then,
which greeted the sudden, unexpected re-
appearance of the Gioconda Thursday,
December II. 1918, at Florence. In Flor
ence the original Mona Lisa had sat for
portrait by one Of the greatest painters
of all times, and in a dingy inn at Flor
ence the lost painting was found again.
The italian authorities obtained imme-
diate possession Of the picture, which
was taken in triumphal procession
through Italy, under police guard to
Rome, to the French ambassador Bar

The theft of this irreplaceable work
was an extraordinary one. in that the
criminal had been able to penetrate one
of the best guarded treasure houses of
Europe and make away with one of its
