HE WAS CURED.
A Youas Man Who Wanted to be a De
tective.
From the Cincinnati Enautrer.
“I cured a boy tb Is week of his desire to
become a detective,” said Detective Billy
Hu/.en, of tlie llazen Agency, yesterday.
Billy was seated in ttxo lobby at the Gibson
House chatting with several friends. He
had been a iked a few questions as to the
duties of a detective and hail given some in
teresting points in regard to what was
necessary to make a good one. “The regu
lar crook,” ho said, “ is a man of intelligence
and of strong will power. It takes a man
equally acute, to get anything near sueh a
man. He must be a man of resources, able
and ready to take advantage of anything
that may turn up, and, if detected in his
business, "prompt in squaring himself with a
crook and in dispelling all suspicions. Of
courso,
HE MUST BE A GREAT ACTOR
and be possessed of a quick insight into hu
man character, agreeable and eompanion
nble.” Then he spoke of the desire to be
come a detective, which seems to fill so many
young men. “This week,” he continued, “a
well-known gentleman came to me and said
that, his son, a hoy of alfout 30 years of ago,
was bent upon being a detective. I told him
to send the boy to me. Sure enough, last
Tuesday morning he put in an apjjearanee.
He was a bright, clever lad, I saw that at
once. I gave him the description of a cer
tain bank clerk, told him the bank in which
he wan employed, and said that I wanted
the clerk’s name. He started out. In less
than an hour ho was back, highly elated.
He had the name f wanted. Understand me,
it was square business. I wanted the clerk
‘spotted. Well, I told him to watch the
clerk constantly until the clerk went to bed
that night. He went away, and the next
morning was on hand bright and early with
his report all written out. He was a little
careworn, I noticed. I told him to keep on
with his work.
HE SHOWED UP
the next morning with his report, hut that
was the last I saw of him. I understand
now that he returned to his studies and is
perfectly satisfied with his experience as a
detective.”
“What do you mean by spotting a man?”
asked one of the party.
“It is to follow him from early morning
until he retires at night.—to his meals, to his
business; to notice with whom he talks,what
he does, and then to be able to report it all
in a condensed, intelligent way. It is the
most difficult part of detective work. Some
men arc fit for nothing else. I have had
men who could follow a clerk or book
keeper and never permit him to escape for
a moment. On any other branch of the
business, though, they would be entirely at
sea. Shadowing is indeed the most difficult
and really sci .<il.dk- work in our line. My
father early put me to doing that, and it de
veloped patience and perseverance to follow
up a case, even when everything appeared
against me. If a man is shadowed for two
weeks alone almost his entire inner life be
comes known, and I want to say to you
that most
ALL MEN HAVE INNER LIVES,
that is, lead a dual existence. More men in
this city have been shadowed than any per
son has an idea of. Wives have their hus
bands shallowed and husbands their wives.
Almost every man in this city, prominent
in business circles or in politics, has been
shadowed, and there is filed away with some
person or other a report that would make
tome men, considered above reproach, fairly
tremble. I know one man in Cincinnati
whom I was shadowing once. He is the
junior member in one of the largest dry
goods houses in the town. He stood in a Vine
street resort for half an hour one evening
lecturing a fr'end of mine, a young man, on
morality, and one would have thought him
the purest man in the world. That, very
night Sergt. Gill at Central Police Station,
had occasion to look through a certain as
signation house for a man he wanted. There
he found the man to whom I refer. He was
with the w-ife of one of his traveling sales
men, and almost died when discovered.
We have many banks and business houses
here, and I suppose we have at one time or
another
SHADOWED ALMOST EVERY EMPLOYE
of all of them. The employers, you see,
want to know what their men are doing. It
has only been about two months since my
father, who then had charge of our business,
sent for a certain bank clerk. He is a good,
clever, manly fellow —a thorough prince.
My father read to him a report of what he
had been doing for a week. The young man
was not bad, but was getting a little wild.
He had been playing poker and visiting
houses of illrepute; drinking wine and all
that. His eyes bulged out larger than saucers
when my father read him a record of his
little breaks. He was given some whole
some advice, and it made a different man of
him, no doubt preventing him from going
wrong. A good, lively subject will lead a
detective a terrible raco to keep up with
him and also avoid detection.”
“The shadow is kept very busy, then,” re
marked a reporter.
“Indeed he is. There are three branches
to our business. There is the shadow, the
investigator and the roper-in. Some great
criminals have been captured by means of a
shadow. The robbers of the Northampton
Hank were shadowed for mouths before they
wore arrested. Then the celebrated crooks,
Scott and Dunlap, were taken in. Billy
Connors was shadowed for months and Red
Leary for weeks by different detectives.
THE INVESTIGATOR
in a private agoney Hite ours is the man
who goes at once to a place where a crime
is committed —such as a bank robbery or a
burglary. He mixes with the crowd about
the place, talks with those mostly interested,
learns everything he can and listens to every
remark chopped. Then he forms his own
conclusions, and upon those conclusions,
if the job of working up the crime is given
to our agency, the work is performed.”
I “And the roper-in—what is his busi
ness?”
“He is simply a roper-in. That is all.
He must be a man of good address and
clever talker, or able to make up as a regu
lar rounder, and must be able to take care
of himself. He works upon a criminal,
gains Ins confidence, and secures a confes
sion as to the criminal's guilt. In appear
ance he must bo the lust person to bo taken
for u detect! ve; but, then, that is equally
true of all detectives. AccorcUngly as they
become known they loso their usefulness.
There is something about the detective
business, its excitemont,'that lends a charm
no other business possesses. It is ever new,
filled with adventures and excitement.
Often wheat
WORKING UPON ONE CRIME
the perpetrators of another are turned up.
This is quite natural, particularly with
heavy robberies, because professional crooks
generally work in gangs.”
“Has Cincinnati suffered much from pro
fessional crooks ?” asked the reporter.
“No. This city has not suffered to any
front, extent. The reason is very evident.
have at times met In an hour’s walk about
town—well, I remember one (lay meeting
thirteen of the smartest crooks in America.
TlxMt want to live here; like the town, and
hence will do nothing here that will queer
them with the town. Lincoln Park used to
be a great loafing place for them. Many a
one I have seen there. They do no harm.
Instead, in order to protect themselves keep
other crooks freur working the town.
About a year ago-there were quite a number
of crooks in the city. I remember one night
that a gang of eight, pickpockets dropped in
here. They had been to Richmond to the
unveiling of the monument to Jefferson
Davis. They were not here twenty minutes
until thoy were told that if they did any
thing wrong
THEY WOULD BE TIPPED OFF.
They came here to work the town, but
soon skipped out, and without doing any
thing at ail.'’
“150 women make good detectives!
41 W<*ll, do, they don’t, it is a hnnl thing
to got a rests*-table woman to do the work,
anu any other kind can not bo dcj>ondod
upon.”
Crooks are divided into different classes,
aren’t they?"
Oh, ves; and you would be surprised to
s -c how close they stick to their own line,
i here are tlx,- iron men, who rob safes; then
the store burglars, who give their whole
attention to stealing silks, kid gioves and
laces; the house robbers, hotel thieves. Then
comes the higher class, counterfeiters,
forgers and confidence men. They take big
risss. make big monev and spend it faster
than they make it.”
it is the old story, is it, of chicken one

Exactly. There is only one exception ns
far as 1 know, and that is Max Sh inburn,

He broke the Ocean Bank, of New York

MATRIMONY AND MISS HOYT.
Her Casual Reference to a Husband.
From the New York Times.
Ihe statement which Miss Mary Irene
Hoyt made to the turnkey at Hackensack,
N. J., when she was locked up in jail last
Friday-— “I have been married; my husband
is a rich man, but he is now in Europe.
He’s a dissipated sort of a fellow”—has cre
ated a great stir among her numerous
friends and relatives. All declare that they
never know of any such event; but, on the
other hand, they aro prepared to believe
almost anything nbout her.
One of her life-long acquaintances said
last evening: “I have been to see her
mother, and she is greatly disturbed over
the matter. Miss Hoyt is very eccentric, to
say the least, and that she should have been
married and conceal the fact until now is
not improbable. Also, it is not improbable
that she may be laboring under the delusion
that she has been married when she lias not.
George IV. of England helieved that he had
been present at Waterloo and led a charge
of the English cavalry, when, in fact, he
was in London when tue battle was fought.
The peculiar disease w ith which Miss Hoyt
is afflicted has caused her to at times fix her
thoughts intently on matrimony, and in
time she may have come to believe that she
once had a husband.”
Miss Hoyt, since her return from Hacken
sack, has been confined to her residence,
454 Lexington avenue, and her physician,
Dr. Joshua L. Barton, is in constant attend
ance upon her. It is understood that she is
greatly excited over her treatment at Hack
ensack. and that Dr. Barton has great diffi
culty in calming her. A reporter called at
Miss Hoyt’s house last evening. She was
unable to see him, but Dr. Barton appeared
in her stead. The following convei-sation
took place.
“Doctor, is it true or false that Miss Hoyt
has been married?”
“I never have known her except as Miss
Hoyt.”
“Will you say squarely whether or not,
to your knowledge, she ever has been mar
ried?”
“I decline to say either way.”
“Had you ever heard, previous to now,
that she was married?”
“I decline to answer that question, too.”
“Will you authorize me to say that she
never was married?”
“If you say so you will not be more than
ten miles out of the way. I will authorize
you to say this: I believe Miss Hoyt made
the statement at the Hackensack jail that
she was married for the purpose of inducing
the turnkey to treat her well. She had an
idea that if the jail officials believed she had
a husband somewhere they -would not dare
to abuse her. I believe that was the sole
reason for her saying that she had been
married."
“Now, doctor, you know as well as any
one in the world whether Miss Hoyt has
been married or not. If she has not been,
why will you not say so unequivocally?”
“I can say no more than I have said
already.”
“Does Miss Hoyt intend to appeal from
the decision of the general term of the
Supreme Court, defeating her in her at
tempt to break her father’s will?”
“1 am informed that she does. But her
lawyers, Gen. Butler and Mr. Dupignac, can
tell vou all about that matter.”
“Don’t you know that if Miss Hoyt has
been carrying on this litigation under her
maiden name, when in fact she has had a
husband all the time and her name is not
Hoyt, her whole case falls to the ground?”
“I suppose it would if she were married.”
“In view' of the importance of the matter
will you ask Miss Hoyt herself to affirm or
contradict her statement of her marriage!”
“It is impossible to trouble Miss Hoyt to
night. You might ask her mother. I guess
she knows. There is something that Miss
Hoyt would like to say, that several of the
leading citizens of Englewood, where Miss
Hoyt lias her villa, have expressed the
greatest indignation at her treatment at
Hackensack. They say that her arrest was
an outrage, as it was.”
Mrs. Hoyt's mother, Mrs. Helen W.
Hoyt, lives at 51 West Forty-Eighth street.
It was impossible to get any communication
from her on the subject of her daughter’s
marriage. Some of her friends think that
Miss Hoyt may have been married during
a trip she made to California in 1884 for the
purpose of obtaining some testimony in the
will case.
A COUSIN S PERSECUTION.
Preparing a Funeral for a Young Lady
Who Was Extremely Alive.
A Youngstown (O.) dispatch to the Phila
delphia I*reas says: Officers are engaged
here in securing evidence showing despic
able conduct on the part of a young man.
The victim is Miss Jessie White, of Joliet,
111., a niece of Mr. Hiram Park, of this city.
Miss White is an educated young lady just
past her 17th year and is well known here.
Last October the young man began his per
secution by having an announcement of the
death of Miss White published
in a paper and at the same
time posting a letter to an
undertaker, purporting to bo signed by Mrs.
J. <S. White, stating that her daughter was
dead,' and requesting that a casket and
carriage be furnished for a funeral. The
same day several young men, who were
known to be warm personal friends of Miss
White, received lettei-s requesting them to
act as pall bearers. The letters were written
on pink tinted note paper and enclosed in
envelopes of the same paper. The note re
ceived by the undertaker was as follows:
Dear Sir—l am obliged to notify you of the
death of our beloved daughter Jessie, which
was due to heart disease. 1 wish you to furnish
the funeral necessaries. The measure for tho
casket is five feet two. I want the casket to bo
white lined, and very stylish. Please bring
some robes, so 1 can select one. Yours respect
fully. Mrs. J. S. White.
A day or two later the undertaker received
the following note: “I have now laid my
plans so that the White family will have to
grieve the death of their daughter Jessie. It
seems as though she wanted to live in single
blessedness, for no strange man can win a
smile from her. and she passes along the
street without looking at me. This city is
too quiet and needs a murder case to make
excitement. It is always catching before
then notes have boon slipped under
tho door of her residence, thrown in the
yard and sent to her through the mails, all
intimating that tho writer would kill her
on sight. One morning tho family found a
large piece of crape tied on the door
knob Mr. Park has a largo number
of letters in hfe possession, the
writer evidently intending-if possible to
frighten Miss White into insanity. Officers
wore placed in charge of the cu.se and Mr.
Park lias received a message stating that
the alleged writer of the letters has been ar
rested His name is D. C. White, and he is
a cousin of tho young ladv. He was found
loitering around her residence, and when ar
rested, said: “I didn’t write those letters,
and you can’t prove it.” On searching his
room note pai>er wa* found romwixmrlmg to
that on which the letters were written. He
was placed under bonds to await a hearing,
I and Mr. Park left for Joliet to-day to look

THE MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY, JUNE 24. 1887.
WRITING OFFICIAL HISTORY.
The War Records Office and Its Volu
minous Contents.
From the IVasliinqton Star.
The place where “war reminiscences" are
made is here in Washington. It is a little
square, graystone building on G street. Any
sort of war reminiscence that is wanted can
be had there on very short notice. The wer
articles that appear in such numbers in
popular magazines and newspapers, written
by great generals and privates with wonder
ful recollections, come in part or in full
from this place. ‘lf a general of either army
is called upon by the Century or some other
popular {K-riodical to write his recollections
of the war, he repairs at once to this place
to gather up his recollections. It is a sort of
magic cell which awakens lagging memory
and corrects papular fallacies. Gen. Wal
lace, Gen. Beauregard, Col. Allen, Gen.
Corse, Gen. Smith and Gen. Sherman all go
thFre to put on their thinking caps; or,
when they do not go in person, thoy write
for information. This great wakener of
recollections is the War Records Office.
The amount of information they have col
lected is almost inconceivable. A great
mass of the material for file war articles
that have appeared in the Century is dug
out of the records there. Many old war
veterans go there and search out the old
documents before writing the history of
what they saw. It is astonishing how often
they are forced by the cold, dried and well
preserved facts to discard jiet notions al>out
how things were, and are obliged to revise
their impressions about things with which
they had thought themselves entirely
familiar.
Frequently officers of the two opposing
armies, who have led the charge against
each other’s forces, have met here for tho
first time to know each other. Each look
ing at the battle or manouvre from a differ
ent standpoint, they come to look over the
records to see how it really was. There is
no chance for any quarrel about it. There
is no room for any exaggeration. The
records are right at- hand to sustain the
truth or to brand as a fallacy. Generally,
both men find that their impressions were
not quite right. Facts make friends; so they
soon become cordial. There have been
some remarkable meetings here of men who
have fought hard face to face, but never
met before. All who have met this way
have become friends. They sit and talk tho
whole thing over, correct each other’s errors
of memory, or are both set right by the
record. Sherman, Sheridan, Beauregard,
Hunt, Wallace, Long and the younger Lees
have met there. Sherman has drawn largely
upon these records in some of his writings.
Gen. Grant, while writing his book, was in
constant communication with Geu. Marcus
J. Wright, who does the work of collecting
the Confederate records. A large amount
of the matter in the book was got this way.
He also furnished information to the office,
and corrected some erroneous statements
made. Jeff Davis has drawn ui>on this
source for informantion for use in his book.
Gen. Wright has in his possession a letter
book filled with nothing but letters from
Grant and Davis upon the same subjects.
Strange to say, Jeff Davis was among the
very first to respond to the call of the gov
ernment for official papers of the Confede'--
aey. He sent all the papers cheerfully as
soon as he received the request. When the
work of collecting the records was first be
gun, it was thought that they would nevir
be able to get enough of the Confederate
papers to make the record complete; but
for nine years now, Gen. Wright has been
writing to the surviving Confederate officers,
or to the families of officers who were killed,
and he has succeeded in collecting fully as
complete a record of the Confederate army
as is had of the Federal. All letters or orders
written by officials or officers of the army
during the war that relate at all to the sub
ject of the war are. collected and compiled
and printed without editing. When the
work is all done, there will have to be an
other history of tho war written from these
records. Many things that have been ac
cepted as truths will be proved by these
records to be absolutely false. Thoy will
show that officers on both sides have been
overestimated, and that other officers have
never got tho credit that was due them.
There is a sort of halo of romance sur
rounding all the loittlos that puts history
in a false light. Officers, in writing report*
of battles, under the excitement of the time,
have often fallen into the error of exagger
ating the enemy’s forces. One very popular
error which has been corrected by these rec
ords is with relation to the first battle of
Bull Run. It has always been believed that
the Federal forces on that occasion greatly
outnumlicred the Confederates. It has gone
into history so. In the North as well us in
the South it has been accepted as a fact
not to be disputed, and the Northern
people have always felt a little
shame that their large army should
have been defeated by so much smaller
force of Confederates. These records
bring to light the fact that there was not a
difference of a thousand men between the
strength of the two armies, and of those ac
tually engaged in the battle, the Confederates
had within five hundred of as many men as
tho FederaLs. There are a number of other
cases where tho odds of Battle have been ac
cepted as very heavy when such was not the
case, and there are the expositions of plans
and purposes that throw an entirely new
light on history. Besides tho official records
that will all, in course of time, be bound in
many volumes, Gen. Wright has in his pos
session many private letters, written to him
by officers on noth sides, which will be of
great interest some time.
Another very interesting thing is the col
lection of photographs of the Union and
Confeaerato officers. The walls ot the
room in which he works is covered with
these photographs, and several large size
packing boxes are filled with them. lie has
the picture of almost any officer on either
side anyone would bo likely to want. In
all, he has about 1,300 of them, from gen
eral to colonels, captains, lieutenants, and
even privates of certain famous corf is. One
of the latter groups is Bulbor's Battery, O.
8. artillery. Federal and Confederate
officers are hung together indiscriminately
in the collection, with here and there a
minister or a priest. All the famous com
manding officers, and hundreds who won
fame within a narrower limit, are there.
Tho collection includes a great many pic
tures not to Lie had elsewhere, and this gal
lery has been drawn upon largely Tor illus
trations, as the records have for facts by
war writers.

A MEDICINE, NOT A DRINK.
1 Liiih Authority.
Hop Bitters is not. in any sense, an alco
holic beverage or liquor, and could not be
sold, for use, except to persons desirous of
obtaining medicinal bitters.
UK KEN B. RAUM,
U. 8. Coni’r Internal Rev.
Washington, D. C„ Sept. ‘34, 1884.
Door Sir—Why don’t you get a certifle&te
from Col. \V. H. W., of Baltimore, showing
liovv he cured himself of drukenness by the
help of Hop Bitters. His is a wonderful
case. He is well known in Roehcst sr, N. Y.,
by all the drinking people there. Ho is
known m this city, Cincinnati, New Or
leans, New \ ork; in fact all over the coun
try, as he has spent thousands of dollars l’or
ruru. I honestly believe his card would be
worth thousands of dollars to you in this city
and Baltimore alone, and make thousand*
of sober men by inducing the use of your
bitters. j A w .
Prejudice Kills.
“Eleven years our daughter suffered on a
lied of misery under the care of several of
the best physicians, who gave her disease
various names but no relief, and now sho is
restored to ns in good health by Hop Bitters,
that we hud poohed at two years before
using it. We earnestly hope and pray that
no one else will let their sick suffer as we
did, on account of prejudice against so good
a medicine as Hop Bitters.”—The Parents
—Good Templars.
Milton, Del., Feb. 10, 1886.
Having used Hop Bitters, the noted reme
dy for debility, nervousness, indigestion,
etc., I have no hesitation in saying that it
is indeed an excellent medicine and recom
moud it to any one as a truly tonic bitters.
Respectfully,
Rev. Mrs. J. 11. ELLGOOD.
Scipiff, N. Y., Dec. 1, 1884,
I am the pastor of the Baptist church here
and an educated physician. I am not in
practice, but ain my sole family physician,
and advise in chronic cases. Ovor a year
ago I recommended your Hop Bittors to my
invalid wife, who has -been under modicul
treatment of Albany’s best physicians sev
eral years. She has boon greatly benefltted
and still uses the medicine. I believe she
will become thoroughly cured of her various
complicated diseases by their us*. V both
recommend them to our friends, man of
whom have also been cured of their vu -1 ns
ailments by them. l
Rev. E. R. WARREN.
Cured of Prinking.
“A young friend of mine was cured of an
insatiable thirst for liquor that hod so pros
trated his system that h<* was unable to do
any business. He was entirely cured by
Ilop Bitters. It allayed all that burning
thirst; took away the appetite for liqnor;
male his nerves steady; and he has re
mained a steady and sober man for more
than two years, and lias no desire to return
to his cups, and I know of a number of otb
erß that nave been cured of drinking by it.”
