future, If he should be again arrested. 1t
goes without saying that these methods
are extremely unreliable, but in Paris i'm
practicable and valueless, for there they
have over 100. GOO photographs of criminals
who have passed through the police head
quarters within the past ten years.
1T will be recognized as practically i'm
possible to search through pile OF 100. 600
photographs TO find one which shall bear
likeness to the individual under investi-
CATION. 1t would be imprac:icabie, if the
photograph, when found. should prove to
be the picture of the identical criminal
whose case was being inves. igated but
when we consider the differences of ap-
pearance of the same individual, and the
similarity Of different individuals, as
shown by the photographs, the impossi-
blity of successful Identification becomes
indisputab!e
TO be Of any value as means of iden-
LITIGATION, there should be two photographs
taken OF each person. one full face. the
other profile. If this be done with the
small size, 2 S4 by 1-2 inches, it would
require 10000 square feet surface measure
for 100000 photographs. These displayed
on wall in a strip five feet in height,
would require space 2 100 feet in length.
A search through such dreary extent of
photographs in order to find the particular
one 10 compare with the criminal, whom
the officers leads around in order to be
able TO identify him. would be like search
among the sands upon the seashore, or the
leaves in the forest, and its impossibility,
or. at least, impracticability is demonstrate
ed.
IN. Bertillon perfected his system Of
anthroromctry and classified it-together
with the photographers that a usual
search does not extend beyond twenty and
rarely above ten, and can easily be re-
duced as occasion demands and be accom-
plished in few minutes.
Upon the occasion of my visit he gave
to Prof. Mason and myself descriptive
card of a given criminal, who was brought
and measured in our presence and we
were instructed to make the search for
ourselves, and SO understand the classif-
cation and find and identify the criminal
The system proved SO perfect that we two
strangers. making our first visit to the es-
tablishment. hearing the description for
the first time, were enabled to understand
the classification and find the box in
which his description belonged, with no
more than ten cards in it, and SO identify
the man in question. and this We did with
in two minutes times
Thus has the criminal in Paris, and all
the large European cities where Bertillon's
method is employed little chance for elud
ing the records of the police He may pro-
test against Identification, but be he an
escaped convict a truant murderer, or
merely deserter from the army, his fate
is practically sealed by the infallible

there IS not any pace dedicated to the

who achieved their distinction in philoso-

need such an establishment or not seems

MANY NEW BANKS.

It is the very general impression that
one effect of the refunding provision of
the financial bill will be the establishment
of great many small banks One banker
expresses the opinion that as many as 1000
additional national bank charters will he
taken out within the next six months or
a year.
Assuming that this estimate is pretty
nearly correct il is supposed that the most
of the new banks will be in the South
and West where. in the rural districts,
there is a want of currency. 1t may be
that in all parts of the country a consid-
cradle percentage of the state banks will
become national banks. The advanta ges
of national bank circula tion under the
proposed law viii he very much greater
than they are at present. The tax on cir
oulaton will be only half what ii is now
and the banks will be able to get bonds
on which to base circulation at a very
small premium. Besides. circulation
viii be allowed up to the face
value of the bonds. IA present circua-
ton for only 80 per cent of the face value
Of bonds can be obtained, and the 4 per
cent. bonds, about the only kind available.
command premium of between 80 aud 40
per cent.
1t is pointed out that a person having
capital of only 5000 will be able under
the new law 90 start bank, having a cap
ital Of $4,000 He will have to borrow
bonds to that amount and send them 10
Washington for deposit In return he will
get $4,000 in currency, less the amount
that will so 10 the redemption fund. That
will be $3.50. With this currency. and
part of his $1,000. he can pay for his
bonds He will then be in a position 10
receive deposits and carry on a banking
business. OF course unless deposits come
in pretty freely and very promptly he will
not be able TO do a very large business.
There is some speculation as to whether
there will be much wild cat banking un.
der the new arrangement. The notes of
course which viii be put aaoat viii be
good, no matter what happens to the
bank iss uing them, but there may be a
good deal Of reckless banking on doposlts.
However, a bank is no4 likely to get a
very large amount in deposits until it
shows itself worthy Of the confidence Of
the public. Among bankers there is a
great difference Of opinion as to what .x-
tent Tie volume Of the paper currency IS
likely to he increased. Those who have a
reputation for being Conservative are of
the opinion that the increase will not he

DAIRYING IN GEORGIA.

The proceedings of the sixth annual
meeting of the Georgia Dairymen's Asso-
ciation held at Granville in October, have
just been published by the association, IN
pamphlet form The pamphlet should
speedily find its way into the hands OF
every practical and progressive farmer in
the state. 1t contains a few more than
a hundreds pages and every one of them
is filled from top to bottom with useful
information, of the kind that is needed by
those who keep cows for profit, or expect
to do so. The papers are by men who
know what they are talking about from
experience and careful scientific study
and who possess the faculty of imparting
information in plain, direct manner that
is interesting as well as instructive. The
principal addresses are by Prof Hunni-
cult, Or. White of the University of Geor-
gia Col. Wright, assistant commissioner
of agriculture; Maj. Alvord, chief of the
dairy division of the United States depart
ment of agriculture; Mr.. H. f. Weed;
Dr. Curtice state veterinarian of North
Carolina; President Brown of the Georgia
State Agricultural Society; Mrs. M E.
Wilson of Griffin. and others.
The range of discussion covers every
thing in dairy farming; how to select the
stock, how to care for them, what feed
to use and how much of 1t to use, how
TO cultivate the food crops and cure them,
the importance of the water supply how
to detect and treat illness in cattle ana
50 on, up to and including all of the de-
tails of processes Of making and cooring
butter and cheese and marketing them
30 the best advantage. careful read
ing of the addresses will put the earnes,
inquirer into possession of such facts as
win aid him very greatly in dairying; and
any Georgia farmer of progressveness
who viii devote a few hours to a perusal
of the pamphlet can hardly fail to be i'm
pressed with what is said in 1t and i'm
bued with a determination 20 give more
attention to the cow.
There are several small creameries al
ready in successful operation in Georgia.
The general circulation of this pamphlet
ought TO result in the establishment of a
number more of them and some larger
plants. 1t Is shown, upon authority tha.
vantage in favor of the production Of out
ter and cheese, and il only remains for
us to make the most of them. Copies or
the pamphlet may be had from the Geor-
gia department Of agriculture or from the
state EXPERIMENT station at Griffin.
