by King George " Lord Fitzhardinge)
who was the true owner Of the title, and
himself refused to make any use thereof.
For the same reason he remained unmar-
ried, and at his death the earldom of
Berkeley passed to his distant cousin,
father of the present peer.
Granville Berkeley, who has just died, is
a grandson of the fourth earl and son OF
that Sir George Berkeley who was not only
an English admiral, but also lord high ad-
| miral Of the kingdom of Portugal. Mr..
berkeley leaves two daughters. who, how
ever, have no rights to the Berkeley earl
dom. All the estates of the Earl of Berke-
ley, as we'll as the ancient Castle of Berke-
ley (where King Edward II was put to
death by means of hot irons thrust into his
, body, are in the possession of the present
Lord Fftzhardinge, having passed at the
death of the fifth Earl of Berkeley to that
eldest son of his who. as stated above, was
declared illegttimate by the house of lords.
The present Lord Fitzhardinge has no chill
dren and is quite an old man, and there
fore at his death the barony of Fitzhar-
dinge WILL like the earldom of Berkeley
become extinct
Baron Trezieneck, who has lately ar
rived in this country for the purpose of
making a prolonged tour through the
United States, was formerly the director
general Of the revenue and financial ad-
ministration of the Austrian province of
Bukowfna, was dismissed for dishonesty
and corruption and was renowned to such
an extent for his shameless prof1igacy that
he used to be known throughout the en-
tire eastern portion of the empire as the
Pacha of Czernovitz" 1t is estimated that
ne now possesses a fortune of about s1O,-
UO,OU almost entirely acquired by means
OF brtbes which he exacted from those who
were engaged in smuggling goods into the
Austrian empire from Roumania The
brfbes which he exacted usually amounted
to about 80 per cent of the sum which they
would have been compelled to pay for Gus
tom duties, and the business was carried
on so openly that Mondays and Fridays be-
came known along the frontier as the
smuggling days, all other official business
being suspended in order that the revenue
officers might help the smueglers to get
across the border line,

fine musical instruments, ranging in size

JEFFERsON's THUMB PRINTS.

A Unique Album I'm Which Many Dis
ttngufshed Persons Are Represented
From the Baltimore Sum-
Mr. Thomas Jefferson, son of Joseph
Jefferson, the distinguished comedian. ar
rived In Baltimore yesterday from WASH
ington with a singularly interesting auto
graph book. 1t is not that the book is so
unique for the famous names it includes In
Its pages, but that it contains the thumb
marks OF several persons prominent in
political and dramatic histories of the
country.
President and Mrs clevelands thumb
prin,s appear In the book and are striking
examples OF the singular difference that ex-
lists between thumbs, for it has been proved
by scientists SO interested that there are no
two thumbs in the world possessed of SINH
lar marks. In the Presidents print the
lines of the thumb are bold, positive and
lengthy. 1t is near the first joint of the
member that the circular lines begin to ap-
pear. In Mrs. Cleveland's print the lines
also appear firm and bold, but the circular
lines are much higher up toward the tip.
Francis Wilson shows his print In the
book. According to an expert in such mat
ters the lines indicate a nature truly hu-
morous. There Is nothing exactly positive
about them, though nothing indicating
weakness is revealed. But the lines are far
from regular and are such as are naturally
looked for in a person who constantly de-
velops a versatile wit and droll conception
OF the incidents of life.
Mr.. Daniel Lamont, the Secretary Of
War. has impressed his thumb upon
one page of the book, and his print is
strong and full of character. 1t typif1es
candor, well mixed with deliberation and
discretion and jovial appreciation of the
good things Of this world.
In the play Of "Pudd'nhead Wilson q
murderer Is detected by his thumb print,
upon which means of positive Identification
the hero Of the piece is an enthusiast.
This has been suggested by a scientist as
the best and most certain way of Identify
ing criminals and upheld as far more sim
pie and direct than the Bertillon system
now in general use throughout the country
Constant experiment has demonstrated
that the marks on the thumb never change
from infancy TO old age. These marks are
impossible of initiation, because they are
too complicated In design and 1t is impossi-
Bile to destroy the marks on the thumb ex-
cept by amputation. The use of the thumb
print In connection with signatures is al
ready being advocated in eastern states.
Mr.. Jefferson is an enthusiast on the SUBJ
1ect of the thumb print and its possibilities
and Importance In business transactions.
Such is hts earnestness that he has become
known among other theatrical business
men as sort of crank. An advance agent.
speaking Of his enthusiasm. recently re-
marked: Jefferson has got the thumb
print idea bad. Have you heard the latest
about him?'
mo" replied friend: what Is it?''
why" was the reply, every time he
gets room In new hotel he examines the
electric button to see whether man or q
woman pushed 1t last.

"Our Christmas trade is unusually heavy
this year." said one of the members of
the firm of Mayer Bros. & Co., 937-39 F
street. to Star reporter this morning
Our stock of ladies' goods, fancy, staple
and millinery, is larger than ever before,
and the fact that the combina ton of goods
and prices is satisfactory seems to be
proved by the fact that the store Is crowd
ed from morning to night. We have only
been in business at this stand for two
yes rs, but we have met with phenomenal
success from the start, and have tried to
deserve it."

Everything is sold at low prices, and the

euccoss Of Congrek kational Board Due

The American Board Of Missions Of the
Congregational Church has made public
q special report on Japan aud Japanese
missions. The missionaries of the board,
1t Is said, unlike some others have never
been pastors Of churches. nor have they
to any great extent acted as such, even
temporarily. Many chapels where no
church organization exists are conducted
by some self-supporting native, church. or
else by such q church and mission co-ope-
rating. Some chapels, however, have
been conducted as purely missionary en-
terprises. One unique feature or the
work has been the theater meetings,
which were much in favor when things
foreign were popular; but the big
preach" as 1t was called, has for the most
part fallen into disuse. Whatever OF
success the mission has had has been due
in no small degree to the women In II.
They have done great deal of work for
the education of girls; have trained most
efficient women to work among women;
but there has been added regular train
ing school for Bible women, where candi,
dates study half the year and go out to
service the other months. The women
have exerted great influence in Japanese
families. The mission has worked ener-
getically on educational lines. The Jap
anese churches are not able to evangelize
the great middle and lower classes with
anything like. the expedition they them
selves desire. II is estimatcd -that37 ,OOO,-

CUBAN LEADERS DEAD.

Senior de Ia Cruz Dies mt New York and
Senior Gomez in . Penal Colony.
The sudden death in New York of
Senor Manuel de Ia Cruz. private secre-
tary to- Thomas Estrada Palma, and the
receipt of cable message from Madrid
announcing the death at the Spanish
penal colony ut Ceuta, Africa, of Juan
Gualberto Gomez, who was the first man
to lead a Cuban force in the field at the
opening of hostilities on Feb. "a, 1895,
has cast a gloom over the Cuban colony
in New York. Juan Gualberto Gomez
was one OF the most brilliant leaders that
Cuba ever produced. He was editor-in-
chief of the Havana Daily La Lucha and
of the Equalda, the organ of the Repair
ists,Iin which he boldly adyQcated sep
aration from Spain and absolute Cuban
independence Tong before the revolution.
While Jose Marti was at work in this
country organizing the Cubans and get
fling ready for the present revolt, Gomez
had charge of the organization in Cuba.
He was the president of the committee OF
seven, which is famous in Cuba for its
work in preparing for the revolution.
When it was decided to begin hostilities
Gomez left Havana with sixteen men, and
on Feb. "a, year ago, he declared the
revolution as begun, near Ibarra, in Ma
tanzas, and fired the first shot.

rapher In ordinary dress, but whom the

test the clearness with which the new
process would reproduce the skeleton of
a living subject negatives were also taken
by the ordinary method. In the first case
the spinal vertebrae were reproduced In

Again, an ordinary iron weight was
placed inside wooden box one and one

weight alone can be seen, the box having
apparently vanished in air. This latter

that only few of the wonders the new
process will accomplish have been learned.
This process of photography, however.

radiant heat rays do not penetrate It,
Strictly speaking, radiant heat rays are
by no means a new light, but Prof. Roent-
gen has, by experiment. gained the ability
TO secure special rays with which scent
lists are not familiar.
Prof. Roentgen has also overturned the
scientific theory regarding Opaque objects;
that is, objects which it is held light will
not penetrate. He holds and claims that
his newly discovered process will clearly
show. even more than now, that there is
no such thing as an Opaque object The
penetrating power of light, he claims, is
regulated by its intensity and method of
use. The professor further says he is
convinced from facts that the discovery
has brought to his knowledge concerning
heat that the greater uses of heat and
electricity are not known yet; that they
are capable of vast development. He is
now carrying on in secret a series of ex-
periments by which he believes he will
soon be able to accomplish, even more
wonderful feats Of photography.
Some Possibilities.
As already said, the new process may
be revolutionary. 1t may and doubtless
will be so perfected that the interior of
the human body may be photographed and
in such event it's aid to medical science
would be incalculable. Thus il man was

MULTIPLICATION by Congress.

The Phillips bill for the appointment
of non-partisan commission to collect
information and to consider and RECON-
mend legislation to consider the problems
presented by labor agriculture and capital
has been reported to the Hocse. Accom-
panying the bill is n long report which
says among other things that the com
mission is designed to benefit business
men. The disturbed condition of affairs
has entailed great loss upon the business
community. The loss of $34,OOO,O0O in
six years to the employers of labor. as
shown in tables presented by the report,
is, it says, but a fractional part of that
sustained by transportcrs, merchants and
others engaged in business pursuits.
businessmen have and will continue to
suffer great depressions in value and in
creasing losses unless better adjustment
is made Businessmen need and business
interests require, the report concludes, a
just and more satisfactory settlement of
differences with those with whom they
deal, and upon whose labor and products
successful business must depend. The
better labor is protected in all its rights
the better will be the security for earn
ings.
