Sing; Sing is without the camera eye" which pierced thrMMh disguises and made alibis futile* fer Louis Powers, Bertiflon expert at prison for 20 years, who fingerend photographed more than Sing Sing convicts during his service, has retired. He was famous for his ability to identify criminals, and for years baa been known as "the camera eye of Sing Sing." He was often catted on for information about criminals in various parts of the world, and frequently attended trials to establish prison records of men and women on trial. Besides learning by experience that women, even though preparing for the death sentence, were "very vain," Powers said l^e had profited little from his unique position except whet be obtained in the way of salary. ; CONSIDER USE OF AIRSHIPS Possibility of Their Suocessfui Km- 'Ployment in Making Aerial Observations of the Himalayas, Consideration has been given to the possibility of aerial observations In the Himalayas. The' range. It appears, has only six peaks above 27,000 feet high, and an aviator flying at about 23.000 or 24,000 fee* should have no difficulty in crossing if the highest peaks were avoided, while. If he chose certain of the gorges, an altitude of some 19,000 feet would suffice. The greatest of the many obstacles to be encountered la the <nounta!n slcknesa, which occurs in the .lghest altitudes through deficiency of oxygen. The gradual climber, going afoot. Is less handicapped in this respect than the aviator rising suddenly from' sea level in his machine; on the other hand, the pedestrian has more fatigue to undergo, and this practically equalizes matters. The chief consideration in any case is an ardequate supply of oxygen, wttfc a proper inhaler. • ff-#v - ...

Pa.--With rats and mice as her only companions »"(i starved almost to a living skeleton, an eighty-five-year-old woman was dragged forth from a damp, dark, dirty cellar, where she has spent the last two years as a prisoner at the hands of her daughter and son-in-law. For no other reason apparently than that she was in the way, the old wolban had been locked in her cellar-dungeon and fed only scraps of food and bits of nourishment scarcely flt for the lowest animal to eat for almost twenty-four months, while her daughter and husband lived In considerable comfort in the house above her. When found the miserable old prisoner snarled at Chief of Police A. P. McLaughlin, clawed at him with her bird-like, talons in the fear that he had come to do her greater harm. She had to be ttfken from the black hole virtually by force, screaming and screeching when taken into the light of day despite her feeble strength. Ignorant Refugees' Belief.- The mother, whose terrible imprisonment and pitiable condition became known to the police here after repeated anonymous hints and suggestions from residents of the neighborhood, Is Mrs. Stephen Navilsky, of Russian birth. No details concerning the reason for her daughter's actions could be obtained from her, so terrified was she at the aight of strangers and so tangled her mind at the realisation of liberty. ^ According to other Russian reaidents In the neighborhood, however, the police gained the information that the 1 Stockings, ' The long stockings formerly worn were called hose; when knee-breeches were Introduced the breeches were called upper-stocks and the >wer part nether-stocks or stockings.

In many Instances, it was said, foreignborn families have refused to receive the bodies of relatives killed in the mines, so terrified were they at the sight of the Grim Reaper. On this supposition, therefore. It la believed by the police that the woman's daughter and the daughter's husband, seeing old age and inevitable death approaching In Mrs. Navllsky'8 case, decided to safeguard their own happiness by putting her out of their sight. Month after month passed and the old woman lived on until there was nothing to do, the police believe, but to hide the aged victim away in the cellar. Door Bolted on Her. Forthwith, she was pushed down the stairs and the door bolted on her,1 not to be unbolted /or almost two years. Such food as was given her at various intervals was thrust to lier, the police believe, through a tiny coal hole Into the cellar, which incidentally, admitted the only ray of light that penetrated the place. Ttiere, virtually in continual night, the poor old woman spent her days, gnawing at the molding morsels passed to her as food, sleeping when she could on the filthy pile of rags and old nefppaper she had huddled in one corner of her prison.
