Hume. ^|r Chicago and New York; Rand, McNally & Company, Publishers, : THE MYSTERY OF A HANSOM CAB. CHAPTER I. WHAT THB "AKGUS" SAID. The following report appeared in the Argus newspaper of Saturday, the 28th July, 18— " Truth is said to be stranger than fiction, and certainly the extraordinary murder which took place in Melbourne on Thursday night, or rather Friday morning, goes a long way towards verifying this saying. A crime has been com- mitted by an unknown assassin, within a short distance of the principal street of this great city, and is surrounded by an impenetrable mystery. Indeed, from the nature of the crime itself, the place where it was committed, and the fact that the assassin has escaped without leaving a trace behind him, it would seem as though the case itself had been taken bodily out of Gaboreau's novels, and that' his famous detective Lecocq only would be able to unravel it. The facts of the case are simply these: " On the twenty-seventh day of July, at the hour of twenty minutes to two o'clock in the morning, a hansom cab drove up to the police station, in Grey Street, St. Kilda, and the driver made the startling statement that his cab contained the body of a man whom he had reason to be- lieve had been murdered.

Trade was disrupted between the countries in the Central Empire (Germany, Austria- Hungary, Bulgaria, the Ottoman Empire), the Triple Entente (France, the United Kingdom, and Russia), and their allies (the United States, Italy, and Romania, among others). Textile industries were monopolized by various needs of the army and sales to the civil sphere declined all over Europe. Supply issues were further aggravated by shortages of raw materials such as wool and cotton and other necessary goods such as canvas.1 M o s t s i g n i fi cantly, a majority of workers and consumers were sent to the front.

W. Hornung, 1899 E. W. Hornung has some thing in common with Arthur Conan Doyle. They both authored over a dozen serious literary novels, but their lasting fame came through their light ‘entertainments’, Mr. Hornung for Raffles, and Mr. Doyle for Holmes. Another thing they had in common was Mr. Doyle’s sister, Connie. Mr. Hornung made her his wife. A. J. Raffles, the gentleman thief, was popular from the first publication in 1899. Raffles was first featured in a film in 1905, a silent film, and he has starred in films and television shows ever since. If you read the stories from beginning to end, you’ll see something very interesting. Mr. Hornung progresses Raffles’s deeply flawed character along it’s inevitable path to his self-destruction.

  • News, Notes and Queries
    News, Notes and Queries DR. HODGKIN'S RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS DISTINGUISHED FRIEND AND PATIENT, SIR MOSES MONTEFIORE, Bt., F.R.S.* IN 1824 Abraham Montefiore journeyed to the Continent in a vain attempt to restore his failing health. He was accompanied by Dr. Thomas Hodgkin. They proved in- compatible, so Hodgkin was pleased when he heard that they were to be joined by Abraham's elder brother, Moses, whom he had previously met in Paris. Thus began their close association. They were of different types. Hodgkin was small and slight with an aquiline nose and very bright dark brown eyes. He was alert and full of activity. He favoured the Quaker speech and dress:1 a plain black, grey, or drab suit, the coat shaped like a covert coat with stand-up collar and a white necktie. The broad-brimmed hat was not removed either in place of worship or for salutation. A joint founder of the Aborigines Protection Society, he worked hard for oppressed savages, persecuted Jews, and ill-housed poor.2 Moses Haim Montefiore34 was born in 1784 and died in 1885. In 1812 he married Judith Cohen, whose sister was wife to Nathan Mayer Rothschild, and moved his business of broker and banker to 4, New Court. He was a founder of the Alliance Assurance Company,5 Imperial Continental Gas Association, and Provincial Bank of Ireland.6 Having amassed great wealth by the age of forty, he retired in order to devote his few expected remaining years to charity. He stood six feet three inches, was of soldierly bearing, having been a Captain in the Surrey Militia, and was something of a martinet.

  • The Ultimate Guide to Overcoats
    THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO OVERCOATS The Perfect Addition To Your Wardrobe There is nothing that makes you feel quite as smart as when the cold weather arrives and you can put on your overcoat. Whether you wear your overcoat to work with a suit or casually with jeans and a jumper, this timeless, versatile garment should be an essential in your wardrobe. This guide is designed to inspire your choices when it comes to having your overcoat made, as well as offering a few simple guidelines to the style and fit. Read on for more... INSPIRATION TOP TIP We recommend you have your overcoat finish just above the knee. The sleeve length should come beyond the end of both your suit and shirt sleeves, but not as far as your knuckles, so when worn with gloves, your wrists will never get cold! How Should An Overcoat Fit? An overcoat worn over a suit will need to be cut a little wider on the shoulders to accommodate the shoulder pad of the suit beneath. For the same reason, it will also need to be slightly longer on the sleeve, as the pad of the suit will raise up the overcoat and make the sleeve appear shorter. Finally, a little more allowance would be made in the body to accommodate the suit beneath. The Fabric and Style As you are having a coat made from scratch, the style choices are almost limitless. However, we do have some favourite coat styles of our own. We'll present a few of them across the next few pages, with helpful notes pointing out the various features that make them special.

  • Winter 1903-Oí)
    AívJD WINTER 1903-OÍ) FASHIONABLE AND GORREGT ATTIRE. EASON after season the masculine interest in fash­ S ionable and correct attire increases. This is not an evidence of vanity, but a proof of good taste and common sense. Time was, and not very long- atro, when freak garments sometimes received the sanction of Fashion and when correctness of costume was not clearly defined ; but now the fact that a garment is fashionable is proof that it is artistic and there is no uncertainty as to what custom requires in a sartorial way. The man who has good taste feels, therefore, a lively interest in the movements of fashion, for thevare in line with his art sense, and the man of common sense gives careful attention to the sartorial require­ ments of time and occasion, knowing that they are based on the eternal fitness of things. In this little booklet may be found illustrations of the leading costumes and overcoats of the season to­ gether with the comments on them that will enable any one who examines the first and reads the second not only to select the clothes he needs in the full assurance that they will be exactly right, but to determine what he should wear on any occasion. There is no uncer­ tainty about either, each is authoritative, and together they form a manual of dress that will amply meet the requirements even of the most fastidious, BUSINESS, RIDING, OUTING AND HUNTING COSTUMES. S much thought and study are now given to design­ ing and making business and negligee attire as A to that for either evening or day dress The result is sartorial effects which are works of art and models of appropriateness and utility.
