Showmen of the —tnited— Kingdom Present a ™ dan to Gra atare Dress Lan- hildren of King, A very pretty and curious gift awaits the children of the prince and princess of Wales when they return Marlborough house. It comes from the traveling showmen of the United Kingdom and consists of a very handsome miniature dress lan- dau in Queen Anne style of the pe- riod of 1704 and standing about five feet high, a beautiful pair of red and white piebald ponies and a small set of silver-plated harness. The re- quest was first made some time ago in behalf of the 70,000 traveling showmen that they might make this gift to the royal children. Though it is most unusual for their highnesses to accept offerings of this nature, the prince and ‘princess of Wales, with the consent of the king, ex- pressed themselves as glad to make an exception on this occasion HOW TO DETECT CRIMINALS, 4. Bertilion Declares That the Ear Faurnishes the Surest Mark of Identification, French Experts Succeed in Plecing Together the Broken Statue Found in 1901, to The beautiful broken bronze statue of Mercury, found at the bottom of the sea near the island of Anticithera, of 1901, has been pieced together by M. Andre, a French expert. The task has been perfgrmed so well that it is difficult to believe that the statue was reconstructed from numerous frag- ments. . lt is rather more than life size, and is of the finest Greek workmanship. Tt is considered to rival the marble Mercury of Praxiteles, found at Mount Olympia in 1877, which has hitherto been deemed the most beautiful statue in the world, Apart from its singular beauty it has a peculiar value as being the only extant example of an undoubted orj- ginal bronze statue of the fourtltcen- tury before Christ. Other bronzesand marbles were found at the same tithe as the Mercury, but the marbles were so corroded and eaten away as to valueless. The remains were found also of the ship in which this cargo of art treasures was being borne when it was wrecked. The treasures were un- doubtedly loot that had been acquired by some Roman conqueror, who is gen- eraly believed to have been Sulla. Alphonse Bertillon, of anthropo- metric fame, has undertaken to edu- tate the Paris police in the art of de- scribing faces. An interesting part of the instruction is that special value is attached to the ear. No two ears are alike. Therefore, that organ is chosen as the base of the system em- ployed. Close attention is also given to noses. Each policeman gets an al- bum eontaining 1,000 photographs— tuit-face and-profile—of petsons~ ex- pelled from Paris. To facilllate the the research these portraits are grouped methodically’ to height, ear and nose. It is believed that when the police become familiar with Bertillon’s system reec gnition of eriminals will be greatly facilitated. ‘Appeal to an Inventor, Will Mr. Edison kindly take a day off, appealingly asks the Chicago Tri- bune, and invent-some system where- ,by the ¢rew and paksengers of a through express train may be able to detend-themselves against any lone robber that may take a notion to loot the ‘train?

OOOO OOONIOOOIOOOOOOOOOOOC FOOOOOOIOO Much concern is felt in England about the increased cost of living and the failure of wages to increase in proportion. Consul Halsted, at Birmingham, has forwarded to the department of state an editorial from one of the leading English newspaperg, which says: “It is beéoming exceedingly difficult for the housewife of the working- man to make ends meet. Year by year the price of provisions seems to advance without a corresponding ins crease in her husband’s wages, with the naturel result that the luxuries she can buy for her family’s con- sumption become fewer and fewer, all her ingenuity being taxed to eke out her allowance on the bare neces- saries of life. “Nor is it only the extremely poor who feel the pinch. ‘The advances of recent years have been so consider- able that they have been felt by many families in better cireum- stances: “This season, for various reasons, another twist of the serew is being applied, andthe already dismayed housewife will have to face the fact that provisions will be from ten ‘to 20 per cent. dearer than they were a year ago.” IS PUSHED AHEAD.

Mrs, Roosevelt Arranges to Give the Oficial Dinner to the Cabinet in December Instead of January.--—- It has been announced to members of the cabinet that December 18 was the date fixed by the president and Mrs, Roosevelt for the eabinet dinner, The place where the dinner is to be given was not mentioned, but it is sup. posed by this that the president ex- pects to have full possession of the white house by that date, and will christen the state dining room with the cabinet dinner. This is the first time in many years, if it ever happened before, that a cab- inet or other state dinner was given in December, January being the month fixed for the great official functions at the white house, which really open the social season. i.
