Even an expert cannot distinguish by
its appearance roasted lava from Bra
lillian Coffee. Then how can you know
that you get your moneys worth when
you buy loose grocery-store coffee on
looks and the price mark? You don't
know, and the grocer does not know,
for "cup" quality is not visible to the
eye, and he cannot show it to you.
Refuse loose scoop coffee You may be
sure that all coffee deteriorates when ex-
posed to the air, and is easily contam mi
mated by dust and impurities.
You will find it to your advantage to
buy from us direct if your grocer refuses
to supply Arbuckles' Ariosa Coffee.
For your protection to positively in
sure you full weight, purity and the best
coffee value for your money, Arbuckles'
Ariosa Coffee is sold in sealed one
pound packages only. AS the largest
coffee dealers in the world, with a bust
ness exceeding any four other coffee
dealers, we can and do give better coffee
than can be bought elsewhere for any,
thing like the same price-in proof of

stage of their career. and the finger
print system is the only means of
Identification yet devised that makes
this practicable.
Not only is it virtually impossible
that any mans ten finger-prints. one
after the other. should resemble in
mere general mathematical form each
of those of another man, the chance
against any such coincidence being
calculated by Professor Francis Gal
ton, the eminent anthropologist and
mathematician, as one hundred and
sixty-four million against one, but it
Is equally impossible that any two
finger-prints should be identical in
every detail.
Recently the United States govern
ment has also adopted the thumb
print system for identification of the
sailors and soldiers in service, as this
might become useful not only in
cases of desertion, but also to more
readily identify the boxes OF those
who have fallen on the field of battle.

DETECTION.
Individual Finger Marks Permanent
through Life-Adoption of System
for Identification Of U. s. Soldiers
md Sailors.

A few weeks ago Inspector
Mclaughlin of the New York City De-
tective Bureau received remarkable
evidence of the value of thumb-print
Identification. A letter was brought
to him through the mails from London
containing the picture and record of
a noted criminal whose thumb-print,
with his name and description, was
sent to London to test the efficiency
of this new method of recording dis
tinguishng marks of criminals. BY
means of the thumb-print alone. the
English police Identified the criminal
captured by the New York police,
whose record in England includes eight
imprlsonments on charges of larceny.
The prisoner was caught by Inspector
Mclaughlin in the corridor of the
waldorf Astoria Hotel in April There
were no charges against him in this
country at the time, but the Inspector
decided that his captive was an En-
elish crook" II was found that two
patrons of the hotel had been robbed
and the prisoner was detained for a
thorough investigation of his case.
Meanwhile the Inspector sent the
thumb-print to London and the reply
brought photograph of the Crook"
and a duplicate photograph of his
tbumb-print and his record.
THE BERTILLON SYSTEM.
For some time the criminal bureaus
of prominent cities have been using
the Bertillon measurement system
which also includes making two pho
tographs of the suspicious character,
but the French system and photo
graphy have fallen short in many
cases, as scheming criminal can
adopt various subterfuges to cheat the
law, but there Is no way Of changing
the character of his thumb-prlnt, for
there are no two people whose thumbs
are exactly alike, and each person has
his own individual thumb-print whose
character remains the same from the
day OF birth to the end.

Next Tuesday we shall demonstrate

In relation to the attacks made
principally upon Hon. A j. Stroud.
our last representative. and the pres
ent nominee. for something he did at
Lansing, while on the other hand his
opponent Mr.. Paddock, secured the
passing of local bill hat allowed
saloon keepers 10 secure surety com
pany bonds for $35 90 where thev had
TO pay much more for individual bonds
before and it is true that Mr.. Paddock
tried TO make this general law, but
through the Efforts Of the law and order
league, was defeated.
1t is also true that Mr.. Paddock owns
a building in CharlevoiX which he
rents fora saloon, receiving therefrom
goodly revenue for the money invest
ed. but what Of this as an argument
that he should be voted for by any re-
publican who respects his party aud
It's principles in preference to Mr.
Stroud.
Mr.. Stroud while at Lansing was
respected by all his fellow men in the
legislature, and is considered an able
man for the honorable position he held
and it is true that he did secure local
legislation as accused of in the Enter
prise, but he did So upon representa-
zion of the best intereses Of the sew
eral communities. and was any of it
immoral or illegal?
Mr.. PaytOn is alse accused of in
competency by the Enterprise but it
is fact that the surety company that
is surety on his bond hasa is the Gus
tom where they are interested, made
an examination of his books and re-
cords at Z he annual meeting OF the
Board Of Supervisors, and stated that
q the accounts were in such perfect
condition that he had no recommends
10 make. The fact is Mr.. Payton has
made the best county treasurer we
have ever had.
Mr. Emrey candidate for register Of
deeds is attacked because he did his
duty as deputy sheriff i'm selecting a
jury which tried aud convicted the
publisher Of the Enterprise. and we
are inclined to believe that the attack
made upon him is OF personal nature,
one which will not have weight with
thoughtful voter.
AS tn Prosecuting Attorney it is
only necessary that every voter should
see, and converse with Mr. Jersey TO
insure for Mr.. Clink the largest mai
GRITTY on the ticket.
IT is noticeable fact that in the
makeup of the independent ticket

SENATOR BURTON
WANTS REHEARING
BRIEF SAYS BURTON WAS I'M
PROPERLY TRIED, AND WAS
TRIED AS A SENATOR.

Special to the Herald.
Washington, D. c., July 27.-The
brief and argument for a rehearing in
the Senator Burton case was filed with
the supreme court today. The brief
says Burton was improperly tried, says
the court dealt with Burton the sen
ator instead of Burton the man, and
argues that Burton's seat could be
come vacant only by death, resigna-
ton or by the expiration of his term
1t says the constitution is violated in
that Burton was sent to prison during
his term of Office, leaving Kansas with
out the constitutional right of repre-
sentation. The decision has the eff
feet of placing congress above the con
stitution, and that Burton was con
victed of violating the law Of congress,
the argument reads.

GRANTS TO PEASANTS
THINKS BY THIS PLAN TO ALIEN
ATE THE PEASANTS FROM THE
REVoLUTIoNlsTS.

Special to the Herald.
St Petersburg, July 27.-Your cor.
respondent learns from a source usual
ly authentic that the principal item
in the cars proposed reforms, now
being drawn up, is extensive land
grants to the peasants on easy pay
ments The object of this plan is to
ALLEVIATE the peasants from the revo-
lutionists. A government appeal, is
sued through semi-ohicia1 sources
calls upon the people to help the au-
thorities crush the disorders. The ap-
peal says the government is helpless
unless it has the support Of the peo-
pie, and that the public must choose
between assisting in a liberal govern
ment and committing suicide through
a whirlwind of revolution.
The workingmen answer this appeal
by declaring that the Democrats who
urge the people to act with the gov
eminent are traitors. They say no
loyal Russian would help the Stolypin
regime The labor leaders urge the
workmen to abstain from the use of
liquor and thus reduce the government
income, as a heavy tax is levied on
spirits.

FIRE DAMAGE.
The Home of Mr.. Frank Matthews Was
Damaged Yesterday Afternoon.

The fire company was called to the
residence of Mr.. Frank Matthews yes
terday afternoon in answer to an
alarm turned in about six-thirty. The
fire was in the kitchen, and was start
ed from a gasoline can, but the cook
says she does not know how it was
ignited. She tried to drown out the
fire with water, but only made matters
worse by scattering the fire over the
kitchen. The paper and paint in the
kitchen was ruined, and but for the
prompt arrival of the fire company a
serious fire would have resulted.
This is the first fire the department
has had to fight in over two months,
and the damage in this case was very
light.
