In New York. Tlie work of excavation proceeded expeditiously, but the workmen had not gone very far when they discovered a skeleton. A few minutes later a second skeleton was brought to the surface. The authorities were notified and the remains were taken to the bureau of unidentified dead of the New York police department. Life Is supposed to he held cheap In the metropolis, and It would have been quite easy to have dismissed this gruesome find as an unsolved mystery. But the police did not take that view of the matter. They felt that a crime had been committed and they went about the solution with all of the ardor of detectives of fiction, but with great deal more common sense. By means of a brass check that was found on the first skeleton the remains were Identified as those of Itossarlo Iasserelle, a laborer, who had been well known In the Italian colony In East New York. The second skeleton was not so readily placed. But it was discovered that had a friend named Dominic La Rosa, and that they were inseparable companions. Also it came to light that Passe-relland La Rosa had strangely disappeared at the same time. Incidentally, it was suggested that the two men had been In bad odor with some of the wretched secret societies which had Imported their bad habits from Italy. In a word It was felt that the two dead men had been the victims of the dreaded Black Hand. Blit before going after the murderers it was necessary to make sure that the second skeleton was that of La Rosa. In order to demonstrate that the detectives performed a most remarkable piece of work. They reconstructed the remains of the dead man. Around the skeleton was built a face, some hair, and by the use of cosmetics these were made to appear natural. Two gold teeth that had been found In the lot and which undoubtedly belonged to the deceased, were placed In such a way as to attract Immediate attention. His old felt hat was perched on his head. A coffee can, covered with newspapers, served as a neck, and around this false form was draped the ragged coat of the man. It was a ghastly reproduction of what had once been a human being. Photographs of this exhibit were taken and shown to those who had known La Rosa In life. The detective presently located a blacksmith who lived near the lot where the skeletons had been found. He said that It bore a striking likeness to a man whom he had seen very often In that locality. While all this was going on the police department had been busily engaged in rounding up suspects. On a fixed day It was resolved to make a test by having the friends of La Rosa, and those suspected of the murder, file past the reconstructed body. It was a gruesome scene, these sons and daughters of sunny Italy marching in that procession. One, two, three, five and ten. they tiled by without any sign of emotion beyond a natural repugnance over looking at such an abnormal corpse. Presently a woman in the line wavered. She was young, with an olive complexion, with great long black earrings, a large gilt breastpin and dressed in bright red and yellow. Her face paled and she uttered a scream : Santa Maria; ft is the ghost of Dominic La Rosa I Almost at the same moment she turned on one of the suspects In the line and cried out in a walling voice: "You devil Why did yon kill him? He was taken Into custody, was this Giovanni Ronmna, and before nightfall another Italian, Victor Plcciotto, living near the scene of the murder, was also arrested. Both, charged with homicide, were held to await the action of the grand Jury. Lest It be forgotten, attention should be called to the fact that the Idea and the work of reconstructing the body was due to Lieut Grant Williams, of the New York police, and Dr. Pecchlni, of the city testing laboratory.

Some 70 times normal model of cell size, this into Identifiable aeuelel brings clearness the genes held thereon. It is the genes in which the scientists have the greatest interest since they nre the units controlling heredity. Arranged in long strings on each chromosome, a complete set Is contained in each ceil and therefore the giant chromosome Is a model of all Its smaller large-scal- e brothers. In the case of the yeast fly It Is thought that between 2.000 and 3,000 genes are contained In each cell, and since the ordinary hundred chromosome is only thousandths of an inch long It Is easy to see the minuteness of each There Is now proof of the gene. existence of 300 genes and a few of these have been individually Identified. Each one has Its individual function such as controlling the color of the eyes in the human or the formation of the black speck under the wing of the fly, etc. over-size- d e Not True Charity man should fear when he enjoys only the good he does publicly.

Around his name has raged endless controversy, for he was the kind of man who seems to have been capable of Inspiring either the bitterest hatred or the blindest loyalty. Chief among the exemplars of the latter was, of course, his wife, who was to devote the rest of her life to adornment of her husband's memory. Long his tragic death in 1870 there were those who had reason to hate him but chose to hold their tongues. After that event there were whispers of suspicion but little, If any, denunciation.
