WILLIAM J. BURNS TO SPEAK

Famous Detective Will Lecture in Hotel Somerset Ball-Room.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Detective William J. Burns will speak on "Recent Detective Work and its Relation to Social Questions" in the Ball-Room of the Hotel Somerset, Boston, tomorrow afternoon, at 5 o'clock. A limited Supply of tickets at $1 each have been put on sale to members of the University at Leavitt & Peirce's.

Detective Burns is probably best known for his phenomenal work in tracking the McNamara brothers and forcing them to confess. As a detective, Mr. Burns should no doubt be placed at the head of the list, in America at least. Being a man who knows his work so thoroughly and who knows social conditions so well, his lecture should be very interesting.
