John De Morgan, Novelist.

We present herewith n faithful portrait Of
Mr.. John De Morgan. who, although but a
few years citizen Of this country, has
achieved an enyiabe reputation as II pow
erlul writer of fiction. Mr.. De Morgan Is
native Of ireland. and about 45 gears old.
His whole life has boon ono OF activity. For
several years he was looked upon in England
and Ireland rs q tribune OF the oppressed
people. To read his life is like perusing a
romance. 1t is fun OF thrilling adventures
and daring achievements. In 1866 we find
him prominent member OF tho English
Reform League. fighting for tho enfran-
chiscment of the men of England. In 1868
he lccturcd in Belfast ana tho whole OF
Ulster in favor of the disostablishmcnt OF
the Irish Church, and has the testimony OF
MIR. Gladstone that ii was by his cloquence
and work that the Liberals won several
seats in Ulster.
From 1865 to 1872 we find Mr.. DC Morgan
lecturing, working and organizing public
opinion in ireland; often arrested for his
Nationalist views. but nevCC dauntcd.
In 1872 he founded the National Republic
can Brotherhood in nSland and within
two years enrolled SO2O00 mCmbcss. But
his greatest achievements were in the Com
mons Rights Agitation. Millions OF acres
Of land had been stolen from the people by
rich landowners. With an cnergy almost
unprecedented. Mr.. De Morgan set to work

sions, viz: the height of the person
and length of the trunk; length and
width of the head; length of the right
ear; length of the left foot length of
the little and index fingers of the left
hand; length, breadth and projection
of the nose, and measurement of the
outstretched arms. 70 the record OF
these measurements is added the color
of the left eye, and any peculiarities
which may exist in the formation of
the right ear. This apparently incon-
gruous system of classification was
adopted after much experimenting
and it is claimed that no two persons
correspond exactly in all the points
named. In ascertaining these dimen-
sions very delicate instruments arc
used, and the metric system Of measure
ment is employed. When a prisoners
identity is in doubt, it is only neces-
sary to measure him, and then find ont
whether his description is on record or

tograph cannot always be implicitly re-
lied upon for these purposes. A short
time ago, n man supposed to be Lucius
Smith, u clerk v no robbed his employ
ers in Worcester, Mass, was arrested
in Chicago. The prisoner, who gave
the name of Case, rcscmbled worry much
the photograph of Smith sent out by
the Worcester police, and furthermore,
he resembled the defauitcr in having
false upper teeth. In spite of these
points of resemblance the police were
in doubt, and TO settle the matter Case
was photographed. After examining
the photographs under magnifying
glass, and comparing them carefully,
it was decided that Case was not
Smith, although Case admitted that
Smiths picture was an excellent por-
trait of himself. To prevent such mis-
takes as this the Chicago police depart
mcnt has adopted what is called the
system of Anthropometric de-
5cription. This system was in,
vented by Alphonse Bertillon, n
Frenchman, and has been in use in
Paris for several years. Briefly stated,
it consists in accurately measuring and
recording certain anatomical dimen-

SKIPPED WITH THE CASH.
County Clerk Sullivan and His Dooh

County Clerk Sullivan and His Book
Keeper Suddenly Leave Indianapolis.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Fob. John E.
Sullivan, clerk of this county, disappeared
Thursday night, and there is every reason
to believe that he has gone to Canada to
escape criminal prosecution. Three
days ago he made an assignment with
liabilities of $1,000 and assets half
that much, turn ng over his Office to his
deputy and bondsmau, w. K. Sproule.
Sullivan operated immense poultry and
produce establishments, and had claimed
to secure certain creditors by ware
house receipts for goods. Thurs
day evening it became known
that many Of these receipts were
fraudulently issued, and that the stuff they
represented di not eX st. This undoubted-
~ caused Sullivan flight. The amount Of
the fraudulent receipts is not definitely
known, but must be many thousand. of dol
lars County Treasurer Loftin, to whom
Sullivan owed $2l. 000 held $1,000 of them.
Tom j. Neil, Sullivan's book-keeper, who
drew the receipts, is also on the missing
list, and i supposed to have joined his
principal. Sullivan took every dollar of
cash in his Office.
sullvan's wife says John has gone to
New York to raise money to tide him ever
and pay his debts, but the statement is
not given credence His defalcations and
debts are estimated to run any whore from
$50. 900 to $780, 600. He maIo clean
sweep Of the money in the county clerks
Office and did not leave enough funds to
pay the salaries due his deputies. He
raised money in every conce vable way,
and the presumpt on is that no carried a
good round sum away with him. HIS en-
bezzlements, aside from his legitimate
debts, now reach about s45,O0
