The superintendent said fiettiooats were trifles. -- ”Ifl-aii my experhmee along the dirtiest ways of thia dirty little world." replied Cuff, ‘T have never met such ji Ihiug as u trifle yet. \\> must see the petticoat that made the smear, and we must know for ccrtulu that tho paint was wot.” I/Coocq. the beau Ideal of the French det(•elive. was wont to explain Ids de- duotions to nsylstants, just as Sherlock Holmes did to his friend Watson. In fhc story of -File No. MX’ a safe has been robbed. There Is a scrnteli on the door of the safe-which seems to have been made hy tbo key slipping from the lock. But I^cocq explained that the twiiht was hard and that the sc nit (-|i could not have I>een made by the trembling baud of the thief letting the key slip. He therefore had an Irofl box made, painted with green varnish, like the safe. As I,ooo< (| Inserted the key he asked the assistant to endeavor to pre vent him using the key Just os he was about to insert It in the lock. The as sistant did so, and the key held hy I-ccooq. pulled aside from the lock, slipped along the door and traced ut>ou It a diagonal scratc h from top to bot tom, the exact reproduction of the one shown In a photograph of the safe. Thus it was proved that'two persons were present at the robbery — on# wished to fake the money «nd the other to prevent Its l*c!ng take©. In Hie play Sherlock Holmes, (he detective, with the aid of an accom pli* e, raises an alarm of fire at the house of the iJirraltees. during the ex citement of which he is aide to hives tigate the mystery of the purloined docu ments. A somewhat similar Incident occurs In Edgar AHan Poe's "The Purloined Letter." when Duplu. having obtained entrance to the house of n minister of the slate who had purloined a let ter of great lmt»ortanoe from a lady, wished to take It from Its hiding place — a card rack over the mantelpiece— and substitute a facsimile. While Dupin was talking fo the minister there was u sudden re|>ort of a pistol beneath the window, followed by fear ful screams and loud shouting. The minister rushed to the window*, and while his attention was thus distracted Impin took the real letter and substi tuted the false one which he bad pre pared. Needless to say. the diversion had been created hy lupin's assist ants. Although ‘The Adventures of Sher lock Holmes" somewhat overshadow the stories of other detectives which appeared in the Strand Magazine, one should net forget to mention Martin Hewitt, Investigator, and Dick Don ovan. Both these detectives worked alone and were past masters in the art of solving robbery mysteries, murders and the ( rimes of secret societies. And the value of noting trifles, par Hcularly in detective work, is striking ly illustrated In -Tho Case of Mr. Fog- gatt.” The latter had been murdered in his chamber, which was situated at the top of t.'io building in which Hew itt had an office. Hewitt was the first one on the scene. The door was link ed. and when he got inside the room be found Foggntt lying across the tn ble, shot dead. There was a slveer drop of fifty feet outside the windows How had the murderer got In. and how had he cscapisl? Gn the sideboard were the freshly bitten remains of an apple. Hewitt noticed that It had Ih-cii bitten by n person who had lost two teeth, one at the top and one below. He also saw (hat Hje dead man had an excel lent set of false teeth, with none missing. He observed, too, that an ac tive young man could, by standing on the window sill, draw himself on the roof and thus escape. Thus Hewitt conies to look for a tall, athletic look ing young man with two teeth miss ing. Ho finds him. oBtalns by a ruse another apple which he has bitten, compares ti^ two and ultimately ob tains the startling story of the mur der from the murderer himself after the coroner's jury had returned a ver dict of "accidental death. 1 ’ — London Tit Bits.
