for a player that WASH good enough for

In recent game with Cincinnati Mer-
rift, OF Pittsburg, tried a little trick, ard
thereby caused himself to be called out.
He was the first man at bat in the f;fth
inning. Three balls and no strikes were his
tab. Just as Rhines started to pitch the
fourth ball Merritt stepped across tie
plate to the other box If Rhines had
pitched the ball he would have hit lin,
but saw the catcher just n time To ave
himself. McDermott properly decided Mer-

BEATS THE ROGUES' GALLERY.
The BertiIIOn System of Identified
ton Conyicts IL Thief.

New York May 1.-the first practi-
cal test of the Bertillon system OF iden-
tification in the criminal courts of this
city was made yesterday before Judge
Newburger in the case Of a thief named
Frank Reynolds On the night of Feb
ruary % last Reynolds, as he called him
self. climbed the porch of the house or
Morris Mayer, of West Seventy seventh
street While trying to enter a second
story window Mayer confronted him and
Reynolds jumped to the ground break
ing his leg. He was taken to Bellevue.
Capt. OBrien, Of the detective depart
ment. sent Reynolds photograph and de
scription to the chiefs of police Of all
the leading cities, and the fist reply was
from the chief of Chicago, who wrote that
he belived the prisoner to be an ex-convict
who had served term Of two years in Jo-
Iiet prison for the same kind of a job that
he had been arrested for here, under the
name Of John c. Coogan. Aphotograph and
a description of Coogan as taken at Joliet
were inclosed The identification card,
after giving the measurements OF Coogan,
finds that Coogan had large scar On his
left leg and one above his right eye
Other cities sent similar Information re-
garding the thief to Capt o Brien.
When Reynolds was placed on trial to-
day he denied he was Coogan. Detec-
tives produced the identification cards
and jurors examined them. Reynolds
denied ever having been in prison before
The jury promptly convicted him.
Judge Newburger in sentencing Reynolds
to Sing Sing prison for four years and
eight months, said: II am satisfied, and
so are the jurors, that this is not your
first offense 1t is simply remarkable, if
YOUR statement be true, that so accurate
description of your physical condition, to
even the scars on your body, should be sent
from cities where, it is claimed, you were
in custody"
Reynolds, as he was being taken to the
Tombs, said to Detective Land that the
measuring system beat the rogues' gal
lpry all hollow"

Last week we went to press too soon
after DIR. Jones address in the Baptist
Church to give any account of it.
There was such demand for extra cop
les giving account OF '.Southern Night
Exercises" at Vine Hill Male Academy
we decided to let the type stay up and
repeat 1t this week with some account
of the address on Wednesday appended.
So we give our readers look at DIR.
Jones again this week. And we have
no doubt many of them are glad to see
him again.
The commonwealth. (Scotland Neck, N.C.) 1896-1929, 1897-05-13
Meeting in the Baptist Church.

AsASSsAAA6 AAA eAS La PsAos SAAASAs
DR.. w. E. Hatcher, pastor of Grace
Street Baptist church, Richmond, came
Tuesday to assist pastor Vann In a
meeting In the Baptist church. The
meeting Tuesday night was interrupted
somewhat by the rain, but fair con-
gregation greeted DR.. Hatcher, and the
service was delightful one.
He said that for two or three yea1s
pastor Vann has been writing to him
and asking him to come to Scotland
Neck, and he therefore felt much in
terest in the people even before he
came. He insisted that the Christian
people of the town unite in their eff
forts to save the lost.
DR.. Hatcher delighted his audience
and all felt the presence OF the Holy
Spirit in the first service.
Services at 80 p. m. and again at 8
p. m. every day.
