It was an apt illustration of ono of tho
duties of tho hotel detective. In tjju
marvelous perfection of the equipment
of a metropolitan hotel in the last few
r a the private detectivo has comoto
an indispensable detail, and today
thcro is not a hotel in town that enjoys
any select patronage at all that does not
employ a guardian, who is empowered
to make arrests if nooessity arises. Some
of tho detectives are men specially as
signed from tho imlice force, and whose
mury is guaranteed by feoliotel in con
sideration of the policeman’s exduslvo
, service. Often, however, tho special
guardians are regular private detectives.
They are men well trained in detective
at ■MWfritifmdimjoy thfc advantage of a*
- wide and varied acquaintance with 'the
feces of metropolitan rascals and tlio
• confidence operators of the country.
Keeping tho hotel clear of this class of
crooks, however,is only a small part of the
stvllsh from the old reliable rMIder.
