growing thicker and more difficult to
breathe. The train crew averted a
panic among the frightened passengers
by constantly assuring them there was
no dan"er.

Considered a Terror.

New York, Sept. 22-Nine of the
twelve American automobiles noninat-
ed for the Vanderbilt cup races were
quartered last night along the Nassau
circuit in Long island in readiness for
the eliminatory trial on Saturday.
Because of the dangerously slippery
condition of the route only one of the
American cars was driven around the
circuit during practice hours yesterday.
That one was the steam racer driven
by Walter White, and because of its
ability to make the rounds in any kind
of weather, no less than by its appear
ance OF tremendous power, it has been
established as the favorite for the race
among American cars.
Tracy essayed the run in the morning
but at less than half a mile concluded
It would be wiser to save his machine
than to take a chance of damaging it

driver, Jardine. is declared to be the

In appearance the Green car, next to
the White, is the most formidable vet
taken to the course. Its wheel base is
120 inches and its eight cylinders pro-

Any man or woman who wants soft,

which causes falling hair. Since it has
become known that dandruff is a germ

were mostly scalp irritants have been

FINGER PRINTS.
The Bertillon System May Be
Used in the Army.
Colonel Chamberlain, Inspector,
Is Pleased With Trial.
SEES DEMONSTRATION.
Record Clerk McClaughry's
Tests Made at Military Prison.
English and French Armies
Find 1t a Success.
SEES DEMONSTRATION.

LeavenwOrth, Kan, Sept. 22.-During
his official visit to the military prison
ers confined in the federal prison, Col.
Chamberlain, inspector general of the
army, was shown the Bertillon and
finger print systems of Identification by
Record Clerk M. w. McClaughry and he
spoke in high praise of these two sys-
TENS of Identification. He said that the
two systems, or even the finger print
system. would be a great thing for the
army and that he would speak of his
observations of the system when he
made his report tc the war department.
He will not make any recommendation
on the matter but nevertheless it may
be taken up by the war department.
During his visit to the federal prison
Colonel Chamberlain listened to the
complaints that military prisoners
might want to make. In speaking of
his visit the inspector said that he was
well pleased with the condition of
things about the prison and also in the
way that the authorities have been
treating the military prisoners.
The English and French armies
have adopted the finger print system
and find it entirely satisfactory. The
army of India has had this system for
over 20 years and the Japanese army
is now making preparations to adopt
the system. In speaking of the system
the inspector general said that 1t would
be a good thing in keeping deserters
and dishonorably discharged men from
re-enlisting in the army.
Many cases may be cited where the
system would come in handy A man
killed on the battlefield who would be
so badly mutilated as to be unrecog-
nizable by his features and having no
papers on his person could be identified
by the finger print system in a very
easy manner. Many deserters from
theiarmy are recognized and prosecuted
by the authorities after they re-enlist
in some other organization, but in many
cases the men are not recognized, but
in the case of the finger print. system
they would be identified as soon as the
impressions of their finger tips are sent
to the war department.
In demonstrating that he could find
the finger print sheet in the classified
column of his records Record Clerk
McClaughry had one of the prisoners
come up and have his finger prints Ia
ken without giving his nS0ae or having
any other description besides the finger
prints taken. After filling out the sheet
according to the description the record
clerk went to the records and found 1t
almost Immediately.
Colonel Chamberlain has left for Fort
Riley and will then go to the Pacific
coast on a tour of inspection. He will
return to the post on his way back to
Washington and at that time VIII make
a thorough investigation of the Bert1f-
lon and finger print systems.
