was taken . couple Of days after the
commission Of the murder, and which
represents him with . long tangled
black beard, and . shock Of unkept hair,
while his features are coarse and brutal,
his figure stout, and his general makeup
repulsive. When he appeared In oourI
on Tuesday the beard had disappeared,
the hair was thin and we'll barbered,
the stout figure had grown thin, and
ths brutal features shrunken and toned
down. In objscting 10 ths admission o

for the defendant said The face in th'
picture would convict, with some stu.
dents Of physiognomy, without furtheI
evidence, and that In . certain way ID
