This story will fulfil your ideas of what a really good, gripping detective story should be. We think that the standard set in the U. J. Sexton Blake stories cannot be equalled elsewhere-and we endeavour to justify that belief by printing nothing that falls shod of typical U. J. quality. This particular yarn, written by a man who has been on the spot and knows what he is talking about, is rather better than usual, if anything. We will not shout its praises; we will leave you to be the judge. If you think you can honestly recommend such yarns as this to your friends, please do so.
