dered. The prisoner gave the name of ]. B.

the Chicago authorities have been looking for
some time, but denied that he was Smith and
further denied all completely in the murder
Detective Thomas stated that his prisoner was
the man supposed to have been known a. Smith
in the Cronin crime.
the murdered physician was seen alive by his
friends. and the prisoner admits he ia the man
whom Detective Thomas has been tracking
about The country, while he stoutly denies
being Mr.. Smith" Of Cronin fame. Detective
Thomas had long talk with the suspect, and
when he emerged from the cell he said that
while his prisoner 50 stoutly denied being Dan
Coughlin's friend Smith ne was sure he had the
right man. Mr.. and Mrs. Conklin, Oman (the

who came in the buggy as feet Z or 8 inches

Who Invented the Typewriter?

To the Editor of THE EVENING STAR:
A Milwaukee telegram in Tuesdays STAR an
nounced the death of &C. Latham Sholes. the
inventor of the typewriter" In 1s47 Edmund
Burke, the commissioner of patents published
a list of patents issued by the government from
1870 to 1S47. In this list Charles Thurber of
Norwich, Conn, is the only one mentioned as
inventing a typewriting machine--dated No
vember Is, 1S45. How, then. could Mr.. Sholes
be its inventor?
A sample of the work done by Thurber's ma
chine is found in House document No. 140. first
session of the Twenty ninth Congress- pages
1898, it being the report Of the commissioner
of patents for the year 1845. It is nearly as
good rs is done by some of the latter day ma
chimes. TAHMIRoo
