PHOTOGRAPH OF THE HAND.

New Method Of Identifying Criminals
Devised by Prof. Tamassia.
A novel method of identifying GRIM
inals with absolute certainty has been
devised by Prof. Tamassia. When
comparing the veins on the back Of
both hands striking diversity will
be observed. Far more important,
however. are the differences noted in
the hands Of different persons. In or.
der to cause the veins to stand out
more distinctly the wrist should be
bandaged for a short time. Their
courses can then be photographed.
Owing to the size Of the hand it 10
far easier to discover slight diversi.
ties than in minute prints of finger
tips. Nor can any voluntary altera-
ton of the vein tissues be feared I'M
less the hand should be seriously in

not until fifty talesmen from Rush

A man giving his name as William
Davis, whom the police term "the or.
1ginal walking microbe" was arrested
yesterday afternoon by Patrolmen
vogelsong and Winters while eating
swill out of barrel in an alley be-
tween North Sixth and Seventh street.
The man was the most filthy individ'

said
The tramp claimed that his home
was in Maryland and when asked
what his occupation was he nearly
tainted. Recovering somewhat from
the shock he smiled and said he was
q lineman for a wireless telegraph
company. He said that he and work
had not been on speaking terms FOL
some time and that he was going
wherever his feet carried him. Bill
carried coffee sack in which was a
number Of tin cans. rotten bananas
and chunks Of dirty, dry, bread. A
few small pieces of soap were also
found in the sack, evidently placed
there by mistake or while Davis was
30 drunk that he did not realize thai
he was violating the first laws o.
.HOhoeism."
When threatened with a bath, Davis
almost collapsed. He was given hi.
choice Of good securing or hurried
exit from the city and it Is needless
to state that he chose the latter. The
manner in which he shook the dus
of the city from his feet was pleasing
to the eyes Of the police. In ordel
to hasten his exit the man was over
taken and supplied with car fare. TIL.

President Taft in his recent speech
ut Chicago paid organized labor the
highest compliment. II he were q

belong to the union Of his craft, he
declared. He remarked that the coun-
try owed much to organized labors

II need not point out the deplorable
results In this country II trades union
ism became a synonym for socialism.
Those who are now In active control.
the Federation Of Labor and all the
great railroad organizations. have set
their faces like flint against the propa-
gandism OF socialistic principles. They
are in favor Of the rights Of property
and Of our present institutions. modi-
ned by such remedial legislation as to
put workinGmen on an equality with
their opponents In trade controver-
sizes and trade contracts and to stamp
out the monopoly and the corporate
abuses which are an outgrowth Of our
present system unaccompanied By
proper limitation.
II think all Of us who are In favor
Of the maintenance Of our present n.
situations should recognize this battle
which has been carried on by the con
servat1ve and influential members OF
trades unionism and willingly give
credit to these men Al the Champion
Of q cause which should command oul
sympathy. respect and support"
Other important statements made by
President TAFT were:
He proposes to recommend to con
gress legislation looking to q proper
definition Of the cases IN which pre-
liminary injunctions might issue with
