It is awe inspiring from with- out with its massive granite columns and gilded dome. Its interior is dank and denuded of some of its glitter- ing altars, ikons and candelabra.

In real life he did of Sherlock Holmes. Hugh, Ray and Roy D'Autremont .| fled into the Siskiyou mountains after blowing up a mail car and killing four men. No man had seen them. Behind them they left only four very slender elues—a revolver, a knapsack containing overshoes, a pair of greasy overalls and a magneto which had set off the explosive that wrecked the mail car. Told the Whole Story Inspectors of the postal service took these clues te Professor Hei Nich. He examined them minutely. and then, in true Sherlock Holmes fashion, announced: That one of the killers was brown haired, left-handed, about 25 yeat ht es tall, heavy set, neat in his personal habits, and a former worker in the lumber camps of Oregon and Washington. The overshoes, soaked in creosote, had been worn to throw bloodhounds off the track. In the knapsack that contained them were found several grains of rock salt. Professor Hein- rich pointed out that this indicated the bandits had used a cattleman’s cabin as a rendezvous. The inspec- tors looked for such a building near the scene of the crime. They found one, five miles away. In the cabin was a towel. Professor Heinrich examined this under the microscope. He found short bits of: clinging to it. The man had used it after shaving. Examination of the hair proved that three men had taken part in the holdup. : What the Overalls Told He had gained his knowledge of the physical aspects of one of the robbers from the size and cut of the from pine trees had ing to part of this gar- ent, and this had told him the man had,been a lumberman.

Then, deep in an overall pocket, was found a ctptopled, faded bit of pape: Professor Heinrich put this under the microscope and found it was a postal money order receipt.
