'THE METECTIVES
'Selfttldga Hatutagat,, tin ,American
newaPaper Writer, nays that the sci-
ence of. crime detection is always a
step in advance of the criminal, a
statement that many may question,
though the writer presents esveral
illustrations. He mentions the in-
vention in France of an instrument
called the seoometer, by means of
which it is asserted it is possible to
tall whether a man or a woman last
touched an article. Tins instrument
was used in a case in which a maid
was accused of theft. 'She denied the
charge and accused a man in the house
who had equal opportunities for eom-
anitbing the crime. The sexometer
was called upon and it was proved
that certain articles had been last
touched by a woman and not by a man.
Eater the maid confessed. If there is
such a. machine in existence it would
obviously aid the forces of detection,
for we are unable readily to imagine
eases in which any such information
would he of value to a criminal.
Nor would he be benefitted by an-
other invention, also the work of a
Frenchman, Dr. Locard, of Lyons.
He is said to have invented a •ma-
chine that makes Ere writing test
absolute and as certain a means of
identification as a finger .print. Hand-
writing experts have played impor-
tant parts in many notable criminal
trials, but juries are reluctant to
convict on their evidence alone be-
cause they have been known to make
grevious mistakes. Moreover, they
are often found upon opposite sides,
and it is not for layment to under-
take to pass on their relative merits.
But the Locard macluine measures
handwriting so delicately, treats the
angular inclinations, the interrup-
tions and curves se precisely as to
defy the skill. of the accused forger
or anonymous letter writer to de-
ceive it. The inventor says, "The
number of times a pen is lifted from
the :paper during phrases ale a feature
thitherto overlooked. Even trained
forgers are unable to overcome the
tendency to hesitate whenever the pen
assumes certain positions in relation
to the paper."
'Since the war, smuggling has been
raised to a high art and is a crime,
especially on this continent, more
prevalent than ever before. The
smugglers are highly organized, and
have vast resources behind them. They
have the fastest motor -boats that can
be built, are equipped with radio out-
fits and make a yearly (profit of mil-
lions of dollars in smuggling liquor
into the United States. It cannot be
said that the authorities are coping
with them. Indeed it is admitted that
their operations are growing larger.
Yet the police have found one useful
weapon to employ in certain cases,
and that is the X-ray. Not long ago
a steamer entered New York harbor,
loaded with bales of hay. These bales
were examined with the usual probe,
and same of them were found to con-
tain liquor. To save the tremendous
work involved in opening and tying up
again every bale of hay an X-ray ma-
ohine was used and the, work greatly
expedited.
Last summer a shoplifting case
was settled by the X-ray. A woman
arrested for stealing rings consented
to be X-rayed and the jewels were
revealed in her stomach. The X-ray
machine found a tremendous lot of
rubber, hidden a cargo of cotton
and destined for Germany in the
war. The police in a north of
England town recovered a great
hoard of stolen jewellry hidden in a
brick chimney by using the X-ray.
In former days it would have been
necessary to tear down the house
to have disclosed the Chidden place
Another ingenious invention is the
silent watcher. It is designed some-
thing on the tprineiple of a seismo-
graph and will tell. whether any
given room in which it is placed has
been entered and at wharf moment.
It• is possible to attach to the silent
watcher a tiny camera which it will
operate and thus take a series of
photographs of whatever happens to
be within its line of vesion.
This instrument led to theo,arrest
of a dishonest bank cashier in Des
Moines. It took photographs of him
in the action of opening the safe
and making false entries in the
books. It is said that he was se
dumbfounded when confronted with
the photographs that he lost the
power of speech for several days.
An instrument that records emotions
has been of value to police in many
cases, and was first used to reveal
themurderer of Father Patrick
Heslin, of Los Angeles. Hightower,
the suspected man, was taken to a
labratory and the instrument was
rattached. He was then questioned
by the deteotives, and though he
answered without visible emotion and
with great care and deliberation, the
instrument showed clearly that certain
questions greatly excited or frightened
Odin. Others left him unmoved. Thus
the detectives were given valuable
clues and eventually he was convict-
ed.
FUTURE OF RUSSIA IN MUJIK'S
HAND
In a Mercure de France article,
translated from the Russian of Alex-
ander Xuprin, are moving traces of
the uncertainty, the divided senti-
ments, the longing for home of the
exiles from Russia. He says that
public opinion among them is a regu-
lar solar spectrum. They hope to
return before long. What do they
know about present Russia? They
axe not well thought of there. They
are supposed to be eating of the fat
and drinking of the sweet while the
Russian people are suffering the se-
verest hardships. A little confession
is gond for the soul. The future of
Russia • is in the hands of the •mmjik.
One of the greatest of Russian mis-
fortunes is the separation, by an
immense gulf, of the people and so-
ciety. The once much -heralded eman-
cipation of the serf was a fraud, says
the New 'York Times. The landed

Serfdom continued. The serf was
merely worse off. There was nobody
to feed him. As a free citizen he
"had the right to die on hie own prop-
erty." The ipo'liec, who had formerly
begged of the •proprietor, now began
to phage the mujik. He bore the
whole burden of taxation and military
service. In the fiyst years of the
twentiety century he was still subject
to flogging. What were his. relations
with the fortunate and educated
classes? According to Kuprin, not
merely hostility and defiance, but act-
ual eeorn was roused in the masses
by every person of this sort they
came in contact with, "official, engin-
eer, lawyer, gentleman farmer, sur-
veyor, or—above all—Summer vie/t-
or." These people and their women
folk. with their affectations and ab-
surdities, their ridiculous clothea,their
everlasting guzzling, their 'bicycles
and autos; their inconsequent chatter,
their kissing of dogs on the muzzle
and ecstasies at the moon and the
nightingale --"all these idle and lying
people were valueless in the mujik
eyes, and their existence seemed to
them vain, useless and absolutely un-
justifled."
Moreover, the upper classes lost the
use of the real popular language—"so
picturesque, so expressive, so sonor-
ous, and at need as supple and con-
densed as Lathe." When a mujik
talks to a "genleman" from .polite-
ness toward his absurdity he imitates
it, axaggerates it, plays a comedy, in
fact, and so "the mujik and we under-
stand each other, less than 'the in-
habitants of Mars and those of Sat-
urn." So the two "separate halves of
the Russian organism" have never
blended. The well-bred and the well-
educated didn't know what the mujik
thought, didn't even know what he
paid in exchange for the right to his
poor life, , •
"And yet even our spiritual bread
came from the ,mujik. Our first
painters and aitchitects were peasants.
Our first travellers, colonizers, Polar
explorers, came from the people. The
Russian theatre and ballet owe their
origin to serfs. Those writers who
are our pride, our justification, our
ornament, are those who had the ill -
fortune and the good fortune of
entering into direct contact with the
peaple. Our music charms Western
connoisseurs only when it flows from
popular sources."
In the 'Os and '70s an attempt was
made by the intellectuals to under-
stand the mujik„but he was still und-
erstood. The Slavophil propagand-
ists and Populists made up their minds
over night that he was a "pearl of
conscientiousness and wisdom.” Then
came that renowned and comic "going
to the people." Student prophets in
.'their twenties, venerable in false.
beards, their caftans belted the wrong
way, "preached to the people its
rights and its liberties in a language
borrowed from the city carbarets and
stalls. No wonder that at the end of
five minutes their hands were bound
behind their :backs and they were hal-
ed to the ,police station." In the '90s

THE SF.F.1)SMAN'S EXCUSE FOR
BEING.
The new beginner at farming, who,
in many cases, is among the most de-
termined to seize every opportunity
for making the, last cent out' of his
efforts, is given to wonder why the
establia'hed farmer does not in every
case raise and plant :his own' seeds,
and thereby save for 'himself the pro-
fits that goes to those who handle
seeds as a business. 'There are, he
will find, many good reasons for :the
existence of seed firms that are
specialists in the collection and dis-
tribution of farm. and garden seeds
:generally, among the reasons being
the following:
Any one farmer's fields may be foul
with noxious weeds, which, although
permitting the production of a com-
mercial crop of grain, fodder, or the
like, prevent profitable production of
material for seed purposes. Soil,
climate and natural conditions in one
locality may favor the production of,
for instance, hay, grain, roots or en-
silage corn, and at the same time be
quite unsuited to the developement of
the plants up to the seed stage. Such
is not often the case with roots, but,
in the case of, mets, seed production
is somewhat of a specialized under-
taking and requires experience out-
side of that acquired in ordinary farm-
ing. The farmer who specializes in
production of feed for stock, grain for
milling or other commercial purposes,
in 'production of vegetables for mar-
ket, or in fruit growing, may not
have the facilities for cleaning seed,
or for growing 'nursery stock, nor
'would the be likely to find it profit-
able to install such facilities for his
limited requirements.
Any farmer in any year :mey re-
quire seed of some crop such as he
has not grown for several years past.
In such case, he would have to forego
the contemplate change from his
regular practice or be compelled to
accept seed from some source that
was anything but dependable as re-
gards purity, germinating possibili-
ties or variety of the seed required,
were it not for the existence of spec-
ialists in the seed supply business.
THESE AUTOS USE OPEN-AIR
BATHTUB.
The newest thing in the way of an
automobile 'laundry is the open-air
bath -tub. An American firm has
patented a wash bowl for autos, and
proposes to establish them through-
out the United States. The first of
the species was opened in St. Paul,
Minn., on April 30th, the Mayor of the
officiating.
With the ramps and the entrances
to the' 'bowl, the original wash bowl
occupies two full city lots. I•t is
built in the solid rock on. which St.
Paul stands. The bowl is concrete,
51 feet long and 63 feet wide, and
the water varies in depth from 6
to 47 inches, toward the centre.
Colored numbers hung overhead give
the size of automobile wheel depth,
30 inches in blue, 32 inches in white,
and 34 inches in red.
Twenty -,five cents is charged for
bathing the car. The driver ciroles
the bowls as many times as he thinks
necessary to wash the mud from his
running gear. The car enters by a
right hand Tamp and leaves at the
left. At the leaving point the ear
is sprayed with forced water. If
a paliisri and wipe is desired the
charge is 50 cents. An electric dryer
finishes up the ordinary ear.
A concrete platform, sixty feet by
eighty, leads to the ramps that reach
the bowl. The bawl can accommodate
75 to 100 cars an hour, and six cars
may occupy the bowl at one time,
running twenty miles per hour. The
silt from dile wheels shifts to the
centre of the 'bawl .and the spray water
running into the bowl keeps the water
pure. The bowl is emptied nightly
