Owing to the dry spell which we have

nearly all the water for irrigation and
consequently it creates a condition

THE HERALD, OFFICIAL UNION PAPEI
FLEEING FATHER
KEEPS UP FLIGHT

Deputy Sheriff Kehoe this week
located Charles Trout, who, it ID
charged, Is fleeing father and who
is badly wanted In Great Falls, where
an interesting contest is ON in court
over the offspring which he deserted
and the erring mother was forced to
abandon. The deputy found Trout
at Fort Assinniboine and Immediately
notified the sheriff at Great Falls.
Trout was then trying to secure
money due him for labor and to get
away from officers, having by some
means secured notification that they
were on his trail.
The officers of the fort held Trout
six hours and, no reply to the notifiea-
ton coming from Great Falls, he was
released and made no delay In getting
away. Later a telegram came from
Otto Schoenfeld, executive officer Of
the state board of child and animal
protection, ordering Trout held by ell
means.
Trout is wanted OH charge of
betrayal of Ida Hanson, Of Cascade,
who recently took her baby Of 3
months to the Deaconess hospital in
Great Falls and left her there for
adoption. Several applications were
made for adoption of the waif, and
Officer Schoenfeld turned her over to
Deputy Sheriff Joseph Kirschwing
and wife.
Later Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Duckett
Of 607 Fifteenth street north, of Great
Falls, secured authorization of the
mother for adoption of the child, but,
Officer Schoenfeld again took possession
OF the child, having objections to the
Duckett family. The whole case will
be adjndicated by Judge Leslie.
In the meantime the officers of
Chouteau county are again looking
for Trout.

INDIANS SEEK TO
TIE UP WATER

Chinook water users are greatly exer-
cissd by suit Of Indian Agent Logan In
behalf of the Fort BelkHap Indians
to rsstain them from using any water
frem the Milk river or it's tributaries
for irrigation purposes. The whole
question will be decided August by
United States District Judge Hunt In
Helena, when the Chinook water
users must show cause why psrma-
nent injunotion should not lie against
them.
The temporary injunction has been
modified to allow the Chinook defen-
daats to use water, 50 long as the
amount claimed BY the Indians is
allowed to go down the stream. The
agency claims that it has a natural
right to at least 1000 inches Of water
for pumping station and 10000
inches for the irrigating canal. This
amount of water the agency 10 at
present securing owing to recent
heavy rains, but, Of course, the alb
normal flow will not continue and the
modification Of the injunction applies
only for the present.
The suit still further complicates
the question Of general irrigation of
the valley, as NO matter how it is
decided, it will not settle the differ
ences between Chinook and Harlem
water users, nor any of the questions
affecting the great national irrigation
project. The India ms claim is to a
prior right, not based on any appro-
priation of water under the state law,
but upon common law right. The
defendants deny not only the Indians
prior right, but any right to the
amount Of water claimed, which is
declared excessive.
Among attorneys retained by the
Chinook water users are A. @. Day of
Helena, r. e. O'Keefe and D. T..
Blackstone. Other counsel will be
employed and the case will be fought
to final determination.

new BOAT is A WONDER.
Craft Invented by Cornell University
Graduate May Revolutionizs
Naval Propulsion.

A new thing in naval propulsion has
been in construction for more than a
year on the roof of an architectural
iron works building in New York. The
new boat has been lowered to the street
and taken to the North river, where it
will be tested soon. The inventor be-
lieves> that he will be able to produce a
speed hitherto unheard of on the water.
The scheme involves the principle
used by the squid. Beneath the boat.
running two-thirds Of its length, be-
|ween the keel and the bottom is tube
Is inches in diameter. The tube is open
1t both ends. Within it are four propel-
ers on shaft, running the length of the
'ube, and attached by gearing to an en-
line in the center. The revolution Of
'hese screws drives the water violently
rom the tube. This concentrates the
>"ergy of the propellers in one direc-
ION. instead Of dissipating in every d.
action, as in the case of the ordinary
crew. The boat is 30 feet long, and has
= ive-foot beam. A 14-horsepower en-
CINE will be used.
The inventor is a graduate in naval
architecture of Cornell university, and
worked for two years at the Union Iron
works in San Francisco. He has ex-
perimented on this idea for several
wears, and has made successful expert
ments with several models.

sfS TERROR or CRIMINALS. Is \ !.
System Il Now Scotland Yards Most
Efficient Method Of Crime Detsc- !
ri 2 tion--7o, 900 Sets Are Reg
Z: istered There. $

The thumb print theories of "Pudd'n.
head Wilson, as set down by Mark
Twain have been seriously adopted by
England's crimonologists, and the inter.
esting statement is made in the official
review OF last years crime in Great
Britains that at the close of 1903 there
were $4,000 sets of finger prints Of Grim
inals registered with the police at New
Scotland Yard. 49,.
Since the official report was closed
some thousands of additional records
have been obtained, and the register is
now increased to about 1000 SETS It is
growing at the average of $50 weekly.
The commissioner of police states that
as a system of crime detection it is show
ing excellent results" The system is
thorc:- lilly established throughout Eng
land and Wales, and many police officers
have come to London from the colonies
to study how it is worked at Scotland
Yard.
A wing of the Scotland Yard building
at Westmins. is specially set apart for
this finger print museum. In the quiet
ude of this block of offices Inspector
Collins and his staff are daily class y
ing, pigeon-holing and reexaminirg
their prints of the finger tips of the habit
ual criminals of the United Kingdom.
The%record room is pigeon-holed elab-
orr @ly, as a chemist puts away his
fat*, drugs; every criminal in his own
little receptacle; all criminals whose
finger prints show corresponding char
acteristics brought together, until about
1924 pieeon-holes have exhausted all
the subdivisions of finger characteristics
which the scientific examination of hu-
man fingers has been able to discover.
Soon this system must yield a COM
plete index to all our professional Grim
inals-an index aim ost infallible, OWING
to two established facts.
(a) Each individuals finger differs
materially from the fingers of all c:se.
persons. T.
(b) The thin capillary ridges on the
tips OF the fingers undergo no natural
change of characteristics from the cradle
to the grave.
ldentif1cations are increasing annual
~. Last year the police tried the sys.
tenn on race course thieves. A special
detective was sent to Epson for Derby
week and also to Ascot. Finger prints
were taken of all persons arrested on
these courses. The Impressions were
delivered at Scotland Yard the same
night, and in the morning the police
were able to inform the magistrates
that they had recognized ~ of the men
captured at EPSON as thieves and nine
at Ascot
Scotland Yard Is 50 pleased with this
achievement that finger print detection
Will be continued annually at the CHIEF
race meetings..
