First as detective-inspector, and afterwards as chief inspector, Mr. Draw's adventures through the pages of the Debrett of Crims are world-famous. A particularly "worm”, appren: ticeship among burglars fitted him well for the bigher walks of his profession. He came to know all the Continental gangs of 'expert luge age likers, hotel thieves, train robbers, and blackmailers; all the "hɔys" of the West-end; and most of the "girls," of whom "Chicago May" was a shining creament. They hated him like poison. ".
A FAMOUS CASE,
Though not actively engaged in the chase and capture of Harry the Valet, whose theft of the Duchess of Sutherland's jewels was his coup d'état, Mr. Drew had all that prisoner's history at his fingers' onds.
Many tales of this kind Mr. Draw could tell and he would, if it were only possible and advis- able to slip behind the scenes for a spell and re-open some of the mysterious volumes on the eloquent shelves of Scotland Yard. But he know the golden value of silence; and it is with difficoliy that one can drag from him his reminiscences of how he discovered the famous Anglesey. Jewels, which were stolen from the poor little marquess by a valet ; hom, disguised as a milkman (the most handsome in the whole round"), he landed a gang who had stolen- nearly £0,000 worth of jewels; and arrested the lot in bed on a peaceful Sabbath morning; diamond to the King at Sandringhams; or how in what guise he took the famous Cullinan ard where he hid himself in the honse of Mr
