BANK ADOPTS THUMB MARKS
AZ a Means to ldentifyahe peposItors
In CHICAGO.

The finger print as means OF iden-
tiication is in fair way to be adopted
by at least one Chicago bank, which,
after a thorough investigation Of the
system, considers II the most depend
able method of Identification, says the
Chicago Inter-Ocean. The new system
will create revolution in bookkeep-
ing, for instead of an alphabetical
classification of signatures. such as the
banks now have, they must adopt sci
entiflce classification of finger prints.
And here new field opens for the man
with sharp eyes. The finger marks, or,
rather thumb marks, the key to the
Chicago system of the banks deposit
ors, which number many thousands,
must be arranged in scientific classi-
ncation, and it will require an expert
to do IL.
This new system OF Identification,
while not an altogether simple thing
for the bank employees who must ar
range and keep It. Is for the depositor
one of the surest safeguards. At pres
ent. when q man opens an account
with bank. he signs his name In a
book or upon a card, and this forms
not only his means OF identification
but is, as well, the banks only safe
guard against the forger. With the
thumb mark system of identification.
the depositor will leave his thumb
mark upon card or a page Of the
depositor's ledger. II there is any
question as to his identity at any time
he appears at the bank, he has only TO
make new thumb mark, which an ex-
pert will compare with the mark Of
Identification. II the two are Identical
the man is identified.
The method of securing the thumb
mark is simple. The receiving teller
and the paying tellers at the bank are
provided with a piece of tin. some
, printers ink. and a roller. The ink
is thlnly spread upon the tin, the de-
positor places the ball of his thumb
upon this and rolls II backward and
forward, pressing heavily. until the
bail of the thumb is thoroughly ink
ed" The depositor then presses the
thumb firmly upon the ledger page OPP
posite his name, which he has himself
written. The depositor is then given
a number and this number, with the
signature and thumb mark. Is classi-
fled. The expert then examines the
thumb mark. and decides to which
classification II belongs. II it Is a
"whorl" or an arch" II Is placed in
| that classification. In this manner the
bank would be enabled to tell what de-
positor had signed check II 1t bore
u thumb mark. even II the name could
| not be deciphered.
The whole system OF thumb mark
identification Is based upon the theory
that from infancy to old age the lines
OF the thumb and finger tips never
change. A Photographic system oi
dentihcatlc: is unreliable, for a man
may greatly alter his appearance In q
few hours. The signature Is not an
lnfallible means of identification. fol

vice at the Front.
AT the beginning of the campaign
two commissions were appointed to
examine officers and soldiers after
their cure and to report as to their
fitness for further service One OF
the commissions resided in KharbIn
and the other in Chita. They were
composed partly of military surgeons
and partly of officers and had very
hard work all the time. The number
OF reservlsts who were refused was
about twice as large as that of the
younger soldiers. But thing which
struck me very much when came to
know some of the results Of the com
missions proceedings was that the
percentage OF officers refused was
nearly twice that of the soldiers. As

NOTES OF THE SLAUGHTER.


NOTES OF THE SLAUGHTER.
Calhoun and Ketter pulled on
some brilliant plays. The former went
back TO the score board and leaping
In the air pulled down a drive from
FaTells bat in HIS g1ocved hand.
Another time he came tearing in and
caught a hard drive OF Luskey's on
the weedtops. Ketter's stunt was hlk-
Ing back TO the fance and pulling
down slasher sent In his direction
by Piper.
Little Brown, the Lancaster sec
|ond baseman had bad day yesler-
|day. He partially redeemed himself
by pulling In drive from Ketter's
bat with one hand.
The Lanks played mostly In bunch
es.
Tate and Ketter both failed TO
|get hits during the swatrest. Watch
these two lads today.
The remarkable part about II all
Is that Parker, Brown and Wilson
did all of that nice hitting against
la left handed pitcher whb is gener-
ALLY supposed to have something on
left handed batters.
Pop Iluskey got three safetles In
four tries.
1t was quite noticeable that not
Lank tried to pilfer. Fear OF that
|strong right of Luskey's made them
hug the bases when they did get on.
Fred Wilson has won great big
place in the hearts of Marion fans
by his brilliant and consistent play
ling. Wilson is working hard all OF
the time and Is always pulling Off
the unexpected. He mas no fear OF
the arms of any catcher in the league
and has pilfered third more times
this year than any other player in
the league.
Al Wllmot will work today and the
big pitcher says that the Ianks are
beaten before they travel toward the
ball park.
Red White will pitch for Lancas-
ter TO-DAY.
Tomorrow Justus will be the Lank
|thrower and Jimmy Lucas will sling
for our side.
Brown has been responsible for
the only two defelts that Marion
has given Lancaster this season. The
Tanks have won seven from Marion.

EDIsoN's obvious INVENTIONS
Why He Would Like the Aid of Some
Judges.

Thomas A. Edison recently made a
suggestion by which common fall

count. The patent law demands that
an invention shall show more EVIL
dences OF Imagination than are re-
quired In the ordinary makeshift i'm
proyements that are made every day
plest devices are the most effective
and the most profitable. The Fed
eral courts have several times inyal-
idated Mr.. Edison's patents on the
ground that the improvements made
by his devices were obvious" solu-
tons OF the mechanical problems.
and, therefore, not patentable. AS
In many problems that require hard
study, the solutions did seem obvious
enough-afterward.
Not longlago Mr.. Edison was try
ing to work out a new piece OF mech
anism. II seemed a simple enough
problem when he began II, but II
proved to be extremely dificult. At
ter several days exasperatingly fur
tile work his attorney happened to
ask him how II was coming along.
mo good, yet" replied Mr.. Edison,
"but OF course the thing is perfectly
obvious. wish you'd bring a COM
mittee OF those fellow judges down
here that are always saying that. II
this thing is so almighty obvious per-
haps they can tell me how to make
it."--Harpers Weekly.
