THE WHITECHAPEL MYSTERY.

Nothing fresh has come to light with regard to the Whitechapel mystery, although the police are still busily engaged in prosecuting their inquiries. The police have circulated the following amended description of the deceased:- "Age about 33, height 5ft. 3in., hair dark brown, skin fair, hands soft and shapely, nails well kept; a small circular hardening, but no corn, on right little finger; arms small, but well shaped; body plump and well formed, with full bust; no marks of rings on fingers; no evidence of maternity."
