"Get out of the ruts. " shouts some
oratorical reformer. However gonj

hat people are apt to have a partlon-
ar way of doing things , and that tholi
acts are apt to boar some resemblance
o each other , both In character and
method , js of crcat service to doloa
tlves in their attempts to bring crlml
nala to justice. There are many ways ,
> f course in which a murder or a burg
ary or a theft may bo committed , and
a sharp detcotlvo will always carcfullj
itndy the ease ho is investigating , and
: ry to arrive at a conclusion as to lion
.ho deed itself was performed. Thor
10 will recall the many criminals the
fnowledge tf wham ho has gained
luring , it may be , his long experience ,
Ho will try to recall ono who hat
shown a bent for operating in thai
particular way , Criminals , as soon tu
caught , are studied and cassified.
"Wo find out , " said a detective ,
"what ho has been doing aud where
10 has boon doing it , and wo almost
nvariably find that ho has boon opor
itlng in some particular way , wntot
10 slicks to. There are few thieves ,
ndeed , who work in all fashions aua
a all places. The bulk of them make
themselves familiar with ono or an
) ther mode of working and carry oc
heir operations among a certain class ,
Yon see , there ii a fine art in rcgaorj

prldo In their operations , and thus on
Inflaonc3 or another always operate
to keep them in a certain rut , thank
to which wo ssolgn them a cortuii
classification which facilitates all on
movements againat them. Indeed , n
the detectives say , it would bo posai
bio to make nut a long list of 'crooked
pcoplo who have fallen into or chose :
tholr own lines of work , and to lllns
trato it with cuts from the roguei
gallery. "
It ia the supposition of many tha
detectives are engaged for the mo :
part in bringing murderers and but
tflars and the llko to justice. On th
contrary , very much of their time i
occupied in bagging small gamo-
smaller in a certain sense , and ye
fully as difficult to entrap , There is
class of crooked people who may b
denominated society thieves , The ;
often got in their work with exceeding
ingenuity and artistic skill. Whoi

escape , for their victims are relnctan
to acquire publicity. ObnseijaenU' '
the public hears tint littloocthe ) aooiet ;
thief , and that little so incomplete ] ;
that it really forgeta all about him.
The detectives hear enough of him
however , for he has grown BO nnmer
ous and audacious that no mixed re
caption in society is safe from bin
without special protection. A dates
tlvo ia now aa necessary a feature o
most swell social occasion ! aa the guest
themselves. If the gathering is a largi
one it takes several detectives to do 1
justice. As many us half a dozen an
sometimes called in.
The society thief it invariably i
man or woman with moro atandinj
than moans to support It. Not a fov

Their operations are usually qulti
aituply ' conducted , They morel ]
watch for an opportunity to slip out o
the crowd , on aomo pretext or an
other , and then work at tholr ease li
tha deserted rooms of the houto. It
some cases whole houses have boot
ransacked by them while the danci
wanton. They steal only portabli
*
and valuable objects , of course , anc
generally work clone. Somutimci
husband aud wife will ongsgo lu thi
business together.

birthday party. While mother an <
father wore robbing her , their son wa
dancing down stairs with the chili
they were plundering. The some
gathering which offers the best oppos
tunlty for peculation Is the wedding
and the wedding thief has overythln
his own wpy. His greatest difficult
is in being admitted. Sometime
ho holds % position in soclot ;
circles which . .enables him to ; onto
by invitation. Some times ho enter
on the pretext of being a reporter , am

Fuuoral thieving is recognized by
detectives as a distinct branch of the
rodatory profession. The funeral
hlcf generally a professional , hulo or
emslo , and commonly figures' ' lu the
logues'gallery. The funoralf thieves
cecp the run of mortuary1 events
brough the newspapers , and drop In
i
wherever there la a fonoral which li
likely to offer any spoil. They steal
anything they can lay hands on , from
mantel ornaments to jewelry , The
Boml-pnbllclty which attends almost
every funeral , the privilege extended
to almost any one who has over known
the deceased to come and take n last

ize , if it is poislblo lor him to do so ,
or If there Is anything to bo stolen
there.
Tno meanest sort of n thief who
adopts any special line is the ono whc
robs children. The "kinchin lay , " tu
t is called in the parlanoo of crime , ie
jriwtlcad by como men , bnt more
women. It is simply the robbing of
children on their way to the grocer ;
or the boor shop , and , to our credit at
a people bo it said , that it is not an in <
ilgonous crime. It was Introduced
koto from Enjzlnnd. Thieves whc
practice the "kinchin lay" are now sc
frequently arrested that the cffsnsc

oars of newspaper readers.
