 There are at present some eighteen thousand photographs and measure ments on file in the offices of the bu- reau. It will be readily seen that each addition makes the system all the more valuable. The scope, when once the bureau becomes governmental de- partment, will be as wide as the coun- try and as far-reaching as crime itself.
 The development of an Identification service, so much needed and desired, has not been possible without overcom- ing many difficulties, but the contin- ued, earnest support of the determined officials. whose appreciation of the value of this work made hesitation im- possible, has resulted in establishing criminal bureau which has long since reached a position of exceptional im- portance.-Washing Post.

Just after the chariot races in last evenings performance of 'Ben Hur," when the throng welcomes the winning team, the immense audience present saw a burly blue-coated twentieth cen tury New Haven. policeman being hustled from the flies. where, he stood looking on the scene. He was jostled through the crowd of ancient but excit- ed Romans. He continued to be hustled till he tripped and fell to the floor, or tesselated Roman pavement. His hel- met bounced to thesfront near the foot lights, where an antique young Roman fell on it. The aforementioned recov- cred his pulverized dignity and bore back to the flies. '~ s,s5.ft ,e.sst Ii
 It appears that sundry devil-bent stu- dents were ''suping," and while the po- liceman was lending the camel off the Desert of Sahara palm trees in the wings the beast jostled against him with the design and malice afore- thought, throwing him into the arena with the rest of the desperados. \
 The audience caught the inspiration and enjoyed the incident decidedly.

 Then all at once. as one who can no longer retain a momentous secret, Sig nora Luisa said: Do you know I have prepared a letter for him when he comes to Florence?

 Then she added. appealingly: "All the Marconis were very good to us. Will he come to see me? Perhapbs he has grown proud-he is so great now!"
 This last was accompanied by a long ing sigh, and Signora Caterina added: Now he talks with kings and empe- TOTS. is it likely he will come to see us? If my health permitted I would make an effort to go out to see him. -.s@.s

promising section of the Christian com
 munity.
 From Ahmednagar city as a center
 district work is conducted in three di- l rections. As far as twelve miles to the north, in what is called the Jeur dis trict. Mrs. Bissell, senior. superintends the work of six churches with 544 com municants, two pastors, four preachers and eight schools. As far as thirty miles to the south, in what is known as the KOlgaon district, Mir. Bissell su- perintends five churches with 247 com municants, ninety-three catechumens and AT under constant Christian influ- ence, one pastor, tfirty-one other agents and ten schools. For twenty five miles to the west Dr. Hume super intends work. In connection with twenty-four of those villages there are six churches with about 4S9 cOnmuni- cants. 3S7 baptized children, PA adult catechumens. five pastors and thirty eight other agents. In some of the seventeen churches in these outlying villages a considerable amount for the support of pastors is secured from the Christians and Hindus. The large and fruitful work of the Rahuri and vada- la districts in the northern part of the Ahmednagar field is not described in this statement.
 These statistics may mean a great deal or only a little according as ane can adequately appreciate what they imply. Those who live here and have seen the work grow know that Chris tian ideas. and Christian life and Chris tian forces have deep, a widespread and a hopeful hold on Ahmednagar city and the Ahmednagar district. In this one city ten per cent. and in some smaller townsa larger per cent, of the population is Christian in name, while Christian beliefs and hopes are powerfully affecting many who have not the Christian name. A prominent Farsi citizen said to another citizen, When I see these large companies of Christians and these substantial build ings, say ''the Christians are going to capture Ahmednagar.' The other re- piled, Do not say are going to cap ture,' say they have captured Ahmed nagar. Except handful of Parsis, the Christians are easily the most lit- crate, the most enlightened, the most sanitary section of the community.

sHAME.FACED CONVERTS.

It has required an approach to
a cataclysm in the financial
world, brought on by their own
foolish uterances, to convince
some minnesota newspapers
that James j. Hill and his inter
ests are the interests OF the
whole people of minnesota.
While the decision in the merger
case, SO far as practical good to
Minnesota is concerned, was a
complete flash in the pan, it did
nevertheless for another SIX
months at least prevent the New
York and London stock exchange
listing the Northern Securities
Company as beyond all cavlll en-
titled to the confidence OF the IN
vestlng public. To that extent
ithas tied the hands OF both the
Great Northern and Northern
Pacific railways in Minnesota, SO
far as any considerable extern
sion OF lines is concerned.
The business men OF MIME
.apolis and St. Paul saw fit to tie
their faith to Van SAINT and the
Canadian Pacifc-Soo railway
company. Mr.. Hill in turn SOLD
out his lake steamships to the
Chicago.New York lines OF rail
way. The minneapolis flour
mills closed down. The Chicago.
New York lines made slight
concession on rates, and the
mills resumed operations. And
now minneapolis proposes to PIN
her faith still further to the Can
adam line, and .holler for the
500 extension to Winnipeg and
for reciprocity with Canada.
