 There is less black in the new styles than was shown for spring and black or dark blue coats and suits are apt to have gray or beige fine dots woven into the material, giving the effect of fine embroidery.
 Some of the smartest winter street ensembles have dark coats and viv- idly colored Things which match one piece dresses. Black felt hats show colored felt Things taking the color ensemble-idea just a little further than it heretofore has been carried in winter styles.
 Another version of the ensemble is black broadcloth coat of three quarter length and lame dress and coat lining. Such costumes most frequently combine bright reds or emerald green With black broadcloth and black astrakan trimming used in straight bands on the coat.
 There is a great deal of white in the evening modes. Leaf mould brown, in fine lace and chiffon is new color for evening shown by seV- eral important houses. Black IS still the evening classic and appears in most of the fabrics in general use. Aubergine and mahogany shades are new for evening.

 What Ashley learned there, he never forgot. He has a marvellous card index memory and the c. l. b. men claim that he practically knows by heart the contents of the records he handled. Wensley saw to it that he was constantly advanced in rank until he was second only to Wensley himself. When the latter retired on July 31, it was inevitable that Ash ley should succeed him.
 Both his brothers followed him from Barmouth to London and also joined the police force. One, who died few years ago, had charge of the finger prints bureau. The other, who is attached to the special branch, had the responsible job of guarding Stanley Baldwin, when the latter was premier.

SHOWN HIS CAREER l BY LAUNDRY MARK
Scotland Yard Head, Once Boy Sleuth, Has Fine Record

London, Aug. 22-Forty- y-two years ago, in Barmouth, England, a schoolboy named John II. Ashley caught a burglar. His work was so courageous and competent, his evil dence so precise, that the assizes judges publicly complimented him. One called him natural born de- tective.
 Right then was born an ambition which has just been realized beyond young Ashley's widest dreams. He now is chief constable of criminal investigation department of Scotland Yard. Which means that he is of ficial Sherlock Holmes of what the British claim is the greatest detec- tive force in the world.
 If New Yorks criminal records can furnish any comparison, the British are right. In New York, during the first six months of 1929, there were 14S homicides and no convictions for first-degree murder. During the entire year of 1928, there were only IS murders in Lon don. Eleven were solved and the murderers convicted.
 Ashley, tall, ne-spectacled, soft voiced-looking like a typical Eng fish hoolmaster-not only is re- sponsible for the detection of crim- inals in the vast metropolitan area of London, but also for other parts of Great Britain when dospairine police call upon Scotland Yard fo1 its expert aid.
 Sought Cleuthing Career As soon as Ashley was 21, the amateur burglar catcher hot.footed it to London to offer his valuable l services.
 But it was not quite so easy as ' it looked. He was taken on the DO lice force, assigned to Albany stree station and for six years he pounded i the pavements as an ordinary cop ] At last, in 1899, he was transferred to the criminal investigation depart ment and soon began to show hi! real mettle. Later he rose to the
 job of divisional inspector Of th' Row street division and there mad himself famous.
 On Nov. 2, 1917, two days aftc1
 one of the worst air raids in Lon
 don's war history, a man crossing | Regent Square in Bloomsbury stum bled over a sack. He called the DO

lice. They opened it and found in side the headless, legless and hand less body of woman.
 Teu-TaIe Script
 On top of the mutilated remains was piece of brown paper on which was written: "Blodie Bel gium." In the areaway, not far distant, was found another package in paper. This contained the dead woman's legs.
 There seemed nothing by which to identify the body. Nobody had been reported missing. The police were against a blank wall.
 Then Ashley took a hand. Be- meath the blood coagulated on the sheet in which the body was wrap ped, he noticed a laundry marking He assigned a set of his men to the tiresome work of checking up on every laundry in London. In the meantime, examining the body itself, Ashley made up his mind that the murder had been committed either by a medical man or by butcher. The carving of the limbs had been done very deftly.
 His men finally found a laundry which recognized. the marks on the sheets. An examination of their books led to the discovery of the person to whom the sheet belonged. She was traced and found to be the paramour of a Frenchman who lived in Bloomsbury and who was em- ployed in a sausage factory.
 Ashley sent for the man and ask cd him what seemed to the French man to be some idle and foolish questions.
 By the way" said Ashley, q wish you would take that pad and wrte-"This is terrible war"
 The man smilingly complied.
 Ashley gave him various other sentences, all dealing with the war Then at last he mentioned what g terrible mess the German armies had made of poor little Belgium.
 Write Bloody Belgium"
 The man did so, spelling it. Blodie Belgium"-just as it ha6 i been written on the piece of browr paper. The writing was very simi lar. Ashley sent his men post haste | to search the premises occupied b, | the suspect and, sure enough, hidde1 away in a cellar they found thu severed head and hands of the vic . tim.
 The man was hanged. His nev | paramour was sentenced to sever years Imprisonment and died in i; !, madhouse.
 This case had thrown Ashley int, intimate contact with Fred Wensley then chief inspector of Scotland Yard. Wensley. who was afterward to be the head of the c. I. D. mark ed Ashley as a man worthy of swif advancement. He made him chic officer of the criminal record de partment.
 Reorganized System
 As such Ashley completely over hauled the place. He made it pos
