squad Of Omaha officers were in the
city yesterday for the purpose OF taking
a look at Handlcy and Ripley, the two al
legged pickpockets who are serving a Jail
sentence for being caught carrying two
big rcvolvcrs At first glance two Of the
visiting officers recognized the men as well
known and dangerous crooks Ripley
especially was declared to be a dangerous
man, known to the police throughout the
west. During the afternoon another lot
OF officers came over from Omaha and took
look at the pair. They all easily placed
Ripley and warned the Jail officers that
they had in their keeping a man who could
give them some trouble IL he felt inclined
and was given an opportunity, but none OF
them could place llandley During the
afternoon couple OF officers from Lincoln
visited the jail, and Ripley was again reCos
ni2ed as a man who had given the Capital
City police a good deal of trouble.
The sudden police interest in the prisoners
has been occasioned by the fact that the
local officers have had photographs OF them
made and scattered broadcast over the coun-
try The photograph OF Handley is some
thing OF an oddly. He fought against hav-
ing 1t taken and danced before the camera
like an Indian His movements were not
quick enough to prevent an instantaneous
picture being made. At the instant the
exposure was made he shut his eyes, but
the sensitive plate caught both expressions
and the picture shows him with his eyes
open and shut, the open eyes appearing on
the closed lids. Under a small magnfying
glass the open eyes show with remarkable
clearness.
The Jail sentence of the men will expire
in a few days. but the officers will try them
