It's Marks and Lines and It's Signal
From the Brain.
A tremendous amount of nonsense
has been written about thumb marks.
II is claimed thnt the curious skin con-
figuratlon on the ball of the thumb Is
never the same In any two people and
that 1t never changes. The first state
ment is correct, and the same thing can
be said Of the lines on the palm and
the crcascs on the bottom of the feet.
But the assertion that the thumb marks
never change Throughout life is dc
cided exaggeration. The alteration may
come from variety of causes-any-
thing, in fact, that will destroy the
outer layer of skin.
Another modifying cause is the tend.
ency of the thumb to develop little
horizontal creases as one grows old.
This is especially true of mechanics and
other working people who use tools,
and eventually the crcases Will break
up the lines TO such an extent that 1t
is equivalent almost to a renrrange-
ment of the pattern. Specialists In
nerve diseases by an examination of
the thumb can tell II the patient is
affected or likely to be affected by
paralysis, as the thumb signals this
long before 1t is visible In any other
part of the body. If the danger symp-
toms are evidenced there, an operation
is performed on what is known us the
thumb center" of the brain, and the
disorder is often removed.
No matter how carefully the individ-
ual may attempt to conceal incipIent In
sanity, the thumb will reveal 1t infal-
libby. 1t is the one sure test. II the
patient in his daily work permits the
thumb to stnnd at right angle to the
other fingers or to fall listlCss into the
palm. taking no part in his writing. his
handling of things. his multlform du-
ties, but Standing isolated and sulky, 1t
is an unanswerable confession of men

oyster Bay, N. Y, July 13.-President
Roosevelt and Secretary Root were so
busily engaged to-day in the consid-
GRAFTON of important subjects that
neither attended church.
Shortly before the morning services
Roosevelt, accompanied by four of the
children-Theodore, Jr., Archibald.
Kermit and Ethel-arrived at the
church in a trap from Sycamore Hill.
The edifice was thronged. and Mrs.
Roosevelt and the children were given
a cordial reception by the neighbors.
The rector, Rev. DIR. Washburn, made
indirect reference to the assassination
of Mr.. Mckinley by basing his sermon
upon the last words of the late Presi-
dent: Thy will. not ours, be done"
One OF the important questions dis
cussed by the President and Secretary
Root was that relating to Gov Taft's
negotiations with the Vatican respect
ing the Philippine friars. Both Mr..
Roosevelt and Mr.. Root deem 1t un-
wise that the friars should remain in
the archipelago with the prestige they
assume is regarded not only as a men
ace to the peace of the islands, but also
as an obstruction to their government
and to the civilization OF their in
habitants.
NO statement of the conclusion
reached by the President and Secre-
tary Root could be obtained at Saga
more Hill, but, unoficially, it is UNI
derstood that note is being drafted
in response to that transmitted by the
Pope through Gov Taft to the admin
istration. AS Gov. Taft initiated the
negotiations, 1t is entirely likely that
the reply of this government will be
sent to the Vatican authorities through
him. Ample assurance is given that
| the United States will take strong
| ground in support of its contention that
| the friars must be eliminated from the
| Philippine equation. ~
1t Is said absolutely that no offeiaI
statement of any phase of the situa-
tion will be made public until the me-
gotiations with the Vatican have been
concluded and that then the announce
ment will be made from Washington.

AGREED AT CHICAGO.
But Neither Side Likely to Accept
Result.


Chicago, July 13.-Final overtures
for the settling of the strike of freight
handlers and teamsters were made at
meetings of two unions tonight. At
the instigation OF the members of the
Chicago board of arbitration, the
freight handlers agreed to send com
mittees to all the railroads tomorrow
morning. This agreement was made
after the board had announced to the
union men that eight of the largest
railroads entering Chicago had agreed
to pay 171s cents an hour to truckers,
and pay for overtime and do away
with the demand for a probationary
period of service.
The general managers of two of the
railroads declared they had agreed to
| no such proposition. They declared
| that when the committee shall visit
the railroad officers tomorrow morn
ing the roads will offer them the same
terms as those rejected by the
union men yesterday The freight
handlers agreed to make an
other effort to reach a settlement
with the roads only to please the team
sters, who had previously Endorsed the
attempt of the Board of Arbitration to
settle the strike. There is lack of
evidence of their intention to make
serious effort to settle the controversy.
President Curran of the freight han
dlers' union said tonight that the com
mittees tomorrow will insist on the
payment of Is cents an hour, and here
after will reject all proposals which
shall not stipulate for the payment of
the wage scale as formulated by the
union. and the recognition of the or
ganization.
With the general managers and the
unions both maintaining there respec-
tive positions. it is believed that there
is slight chance for settlement to-
morrow, and when that opportunity
shall have vanished 1t will be a fight
to a finish.
Every teamsters' union in Chicago
that has members handling freight
voted to-day to refuse to take teams
to the freight depots.
The Longshoremcn Organize.
Longshoremen of Chicago, who have
been in only a partially organized con-
dition, were formed into a union to-
day. They are out now in sympathy
with the freight handlers, but to-mor-
row may inaugurate an independent
strike of their own, If higher scale
of wages for loading and unloading
the big lake boats shall be refused.
The ice teamsters also have agreed
not to ice refrigerator cars, not to
visit the rsslroad yards. This is virtu-
ally sympathetic strike, and until
the railroads shall settle the trouble
with the freight handlers, the ice
storage points along the railroad lines
will have to be closed.
The coal teamsters, at a meeting to-
day, determined that no member of
the union shall go near the railroad
freight sheds during the strike. While
there is little likelihood of the coal
Transfers being asked to haul from
freight houses, they decided to be pre-
pared for such a contingency by re-
solving not to touch any articles UNI
