AN UNERRING DETECTIVE.
Identification by IHousuruittont Said
Novcr to Xnll.
Chamber's Journal.
A young man, who had been arrested ono
morning for theft, was called up aud measured
then and there. The process is carried out by
two men, one of whom applies thcinstruments
and calls out the figures, which are entered
on a card by tho other, precisely as in a tailor's
shop. Tho subject is barefooted and bare
headed. The measurements are taken in four
minutes, together with tho height standing,
height sitting, tho length of the arm extended,
tho length and breadth of the car. This fin
ished, M. Bertillion, card in hand, interro
gated tho prisoner:
"What Is your name ?"
"Albert Felix."
"Have you ever been up beforo ?"
"No, never."
"Quito suno?"
"Perfectly sure," with jaunty confidence.
As the young scoundrel was the leader of a
band, this seemed biahly improbable.
Ho' was removed, and wo proceeded to tho
search. Section after section of the drawers
was rapidly eliminated by comparing tho fig
ures ou them with thoso on M. Felix's card.
At last we came to a singlo druwer, and then
down to two cards. If ho was there at all, it
must be one of these. A look at tho first at
onco showed discrepancies of one or more mil
limetres under some of tho headings, and, as
the bony measurements are accurate to a mil
limeter," it could not bo this one, There re
mained ono card. M. Bertlllou took it up,
hiding tho photograph on it. All the figures
corresponded exactly with thoso just taken of
Felix. Ho was recalled, and again questioned.
Ho repeated his fonncr statements, but ob
viously with less confidence. M. Bertillon
uncovered tho photograph, and there tho fel
low was to the life, and as ho stood that
moment beforo us. It was most startling.
But the original of the photograph was called
Alfred Louis Lcmaric, and ho had been in
jail two years before. Tho card bore details
of certain scars and marks on hand and body;
they corresponded exactly with thoso on Felix.
Our friend, tho detective, edged up and
watched tho prisoner with professional de
light. Again questioned, Felix stuck to his
story, but his composuro was gone, his eyo
was troubled, his lips trembled and tho mus
cles in his face twitched. The photograph
was shown him. "Who is that ?"
"Not me, somo one like mo" but very
shakily.
"This is Alfred Louis Lemalre, and he was
arrested," etc.
Tho fellow was down in an instant, us limp
as wet paper. "OI, e'est mon nom,' adding,
"I knew you would find It."
Tho astonlslilng thing was that out of that
great roomful of cards not a single ono
corresponded, or anything llko corresponded
with the measurements of tho youth beforo us
except that particular ono his own. Mistake
is impossible.

Why do I drink Tannhauser beer ? Because
