Finger Print Identification.

In detective novels finger-prints left
by criminals, preferably in blood,
play an important part; but truth
seems stranger than fiction In the fact
that the fnger-print system OF identl-
flying criminals in India has been
made so perfect that 1t would enable
any intelligent person In a few min
utes to distinguish the individual, II
necessary, from all other persons now
living in the world, or, II data were
available, from all other persons who
have lived since the creation OF man.
The system is simplicity Itself, and
there Is none Of the elaboration OF
process or the costly and delicate ma
chinery required for the anthropo-
metric system. All that is needed is
a piece OF tin, a sheet OF paper and
some printers ink. The linked i'm
pressions OF the ten digits are taken
and filed in the proper compartment OF
the proper pigeon-hole, and 1t Is on
the classification OF records and their
distribution into the pigeon holes
that the success OF the system
depends. Every finger mark shows
lines Of the loop" or the
"whorl" type, and by a simple table
Of the combinations OF these types in
the ten digits, 1924 main classes are
made. These are again subdivided ac-
cording to minor details. and the sub

The fishes are trained TO go through
regular battles, and are reared arti-

They are kept in aquariums built

duke Is now only 6 years old. II Is cvi-
dent thai The real ruler OF Austria
Hungary for some years would be the
ArchducI ass Marie Valerie, who
would pi esumably act as regent. II 1t
be asked Can the emperor safely
break the Austrian law OF succession
In this manner" The answer Is
that the consequences OF such an act
may be more serious than is at pres
ent supposed. True, the great powers
would o raise any objection. and the
outlook is that the Austrian parlia-
ment would assent TO any such change
In the law, though possibly not with
out some murmuring. In Hungary,
however, there would assuredly be
some strong opposition. The consent
of two-thirds of the members OF the
Hungarian parliament would be neces-
sary In a case of this kind. and to gain
their consent would not be easy. In
deed. there are some who think that 1t
would be a well-nigh impossible task.
The opposition party Is strong In Hun
gary, and the fear is widely expressed
that in case of any controversy over
the question Of succession those ir-
reconcilables may seize the opportuni-
ty either to bring about a complete
separation OF Austria and Hungary or
to transform the present real union OF
the two countries into one that would
be merely personal. Franz Josef sees
this danger clearly, and II is possible
that he has given up his cherished idea
Of having his daughter or grandson
succeed him and is willing that the
throne should go to little Karl, his
nephew's son. Since the empress
death he has given much thought to
this subject, and 1t may be that he
sees more and more the danger Of
violating the recognized law OF sue
cession. Yet there are many who in
sist that the danger will be much
greater IL he does not violate It.
The emperor's popularity is very
great, they point out. in every section
of the empire, and the likelihood is
that his direct descendants-the Arch
duchess Marie Valerie and her SON
would be equally popular. On the
other hand, neither Franz Ferdinand
nor the Archduke Otto is In any
marked degree a persona grata to the
people OF Austria or OF Hungary, and
there is no reason for believing thai

TRiA is EXCITED.
The Deolsioa Leaves the Throne to ne

Son OF Archduhe Otto - Hungary
Would OBJECT.

According to a cable dispatch from
Vienna the Archduke Franz Ferji-
nand, nephew OF Emperor Franz Josef
and heir to the throne of Austria-Hun-
gary, has announced that II is his
final determination not to marry, and
that he wishes the succession to pass
at his death to Karl, the 1~2-year-old
son OF his brother, the Archduke Otto.
This news is certainly surprising, and
Tor various reasons. II is interesting
to learn that the Archduke Franz Fer
dinand has determined to remain a
bachelor. Europe was amazed some
time ago at the rufhor that he had
married a woman very much beneath
him in rank, ard assuredly great will
be Its pleasure at learning beyond the
shadow Of a doubt that there was no
truth in the rumor. Whether Europe
will be equally pleased at learning
that the heir to the throne OF Austria
Hungary is resolved never to marry
is another question. After all, how
ever, 1t is not easy to see how the
Archduke Franz Ferdinand can have
any voice in the matter Of the success
sion. Emperor Franz Josef is still
alive, and while he lives he will re-
main the sole arbiter in this matter.
1t is possible that he may accede to
a wish expressed by his nephew Franz
Ferdinand. but 1t is far more likely
that be has already made up his mind
In regard to the succession, and IL so
1t Is extremely improbable that any
wish expressed by any member of his
family will have the slightest weight
with him. Even the emperor, how
ever, Is not free to do as he pleases. l,
Is said that his desire to have the
throne descend at his death to his
daughter, the Archduchess MARI
Valerie, wife Of the Archduke Francis
Salvador, or to some one OF her chill
dren, but this would necessitate a re-

vision Of the pragmatic sanction, by
virtue Of which in 1923 Emperor
Charles vi. settled the crown on his
daughter Maria Theresa and her heirs.
The rule, then, being that the Austro-
Hungarian throne shall always de-
scend to direct male heirs, the success
sion at present lies between the sons
OF Archduke Charles Ludwig. or thess
neither Franz Ferdinand nor Otto is
very acceptable to the emperor, ana
this wal clearly the main reason why
he was recently thinking OF following
Charles Wis example and settling the
crown ON his daughter or on his
grandson. That Franz Ferdinand
should voluntarily resign his claims on
the crown in favor Of his little nephew
Karl will seem strange TO those who
know how elated he has always APP
peared at the conviction that he
would succeed the present emperor.
This conviction was first weakened
when he became seriously Ill a few
years ago. All Austria thought that
be would die of consumption, and quite
NATURALLY his brother Otto took his
place at court. Franz Ferdinand,
however, recovered and he very soon
made 1t quite clear that he was not
willing to resign his claims to the
goodly heritage In favor Of anyone. In
every possible way. both at home and
at foreign courts, he let II be known
that he and he alone was to be ruler
Of Austria-H Hungary after the present
emperor's death. Now, il Is claimed
that neither he nor the Archduke Otto
10 qualified to ho.d the reins over this
vast and heterogeneous empire, and
that the emperor would be much pet
ter pleased to have as his successor
his youngest daughter, the Archduch-
ess Marie Valerie, or one Of her chill
dren. On this latter point he does
not seem to have quite made up his
mind, At first he planned to have his
daughter appointed empress after his
death, but the latest report was that
