GETS ANOTHER ON CRIMINAL
M. 7ertillon Studies Human Hair to
Further Perfect HIS system
Of Identification.

Human hair is now the study OF
that untiring criminal statistician,
NJ. Bertillon, who invented the sci
ence of finger prints. He is en-
gagged in drawing up complete clas-
siied and graduated table Of all the
eolors of the human hair He has
already received specimens from
many parts of the world, but asks
for more and as many as people like
to send him.
A complete palette, so to speak, OF
the colors Of the human hair is, in
his opinion, long-felt want. When
a man is wanted by the police in any
country the hue of his hair is only
vaguely described, and the terms
used have no standard meaning.
What is called fair in Sicily is con-
sidered as dark in Scandinavia, and
vice versa.
When he has gathered together a
complete collection of hair from ev-
cry part of the world M. Bertillon
will classify them carefully, accord
ing to a graduated scale of shades,
and then number each. Thus if he
begins at one with the darkest ra-
ven black, the highest figure will be
that of the lightest faxen known.
When the scale is ready and has
been communicated TO the police all
over the world the description of
man who is wanted viii mention, for
instance, chair Nos II to So" and
the Scandinavian will know as well
as the Sicilian police what color is
meant within a fairly close approx
nation. Henceforth burglars who al
ready wear gloves when on the job
for fear of leaving finger prints, will
have to keep their heads shaved.

CANDIDATES TALK TO
REPUBLICAN EDITORS
Osborn, Montgomery. Kelley and
Musseiman Outline Course "

LANSING, Mich, Feb. 1.-THE
four candidates for the Republican
nomination for governor addressed
the Republican Editorial association
which held its closing session yester-
day Afternoon.
Chase S. Osborn told the editors IL
he were elected he would endeavor TO
give Michigan such an administration
as the late Gov. Johnson OF Mime
sofa gave to that state.
Amos s. Musselman of Grand Rap
ids enumerated long list OF reforms
which he would inaugurate IL he be-
came chief executive. Among them
he would make il rule TO devote all
of his time to the duties OF the office
TO which he was elected. He would
not make appointments according TO
the number of votes that an applicant
for the position could control, but he
admitted that he was Zack Chand-
Ter Republican and believed that q
man should look out for his friends.
Lieut.. Gov. Kelley smiled his glad
dest smile and informed the editors
that they were the best fellows Oh
earth, but hoped that they would
make careful Investigations as TO
where money was being spent before
accusing the administration or reck-
lessly squandering the states cash.
Judge Montgomery covered prac-
tically the same ground as In MS
speeches at the various banquets
about the state. declaring for exam
inaticn of private banks, employers
liability law and civil service exam
nations for state employees. The
Judge stated that he was in full ac-

TRIES TO PROVE
HUBBY A PERJURER
Mrs. Coon Submits More Evidence in
Divorce Suit, Hoping To
Dodge Decree.

The sensational. divorce case Of
Charles w. Coon against his wife.
Jennie. will probably be re-opened as
result OF evidence given in Judge
Murfin's court, Saturday morning.
Mrs. Coon filed cross-blll in which
she asked for separate maintenance
She was successful in her suit, but
Judge Muffin insisted that she take
decree OF divorce instead OF one Of
separate maintenance. This she Oh.
Jected to, declaring that il would
leave her husband tree to marry Mrs.
Lillian Bourke. named as co-respon-
dent at the trial. IL was general
supposed that the case was settled,
hut IL now appears that Judge Murfin
delayed the signing OF the decree
while the wife had an opportunity to
hHnt up more evidence. Some of that
evidence was brought out Saturday.
and more will be produced as soon as
two material witnesses have recoy-
cred from Illnesses SO that they can
appear in court.
Al the trial Coon and Mrs. Bourke
testified that they had never gone
cut together. Saturday, Miss Caro-
line Edwards, OF Saginaw, a friend OF
Mrs Bourke, Was compelled, very
much against her will, TO admit that
on two occasions she had gone with
Mrs. Bourke and Coon To Chappels
road house, near Sandwich, for sup
per. She had also accompanied them

said.
Alexander Morris, father of Mrs.
Bourke. admitted that Coon was 4
frequent visitor at his home. No. 9
Poplar-st., where his daughter also
resides. The father admitted after
considerable parrying, that Coon came
To see Mrs. Bodrke.
A neighbour Mrs. Bertha Pease, said
she had frequently seen Coon call al
the Morris home when Mrs. Bourke
lived there.
Mrs. May Lincoln who made very
serious charges against her sister,
Mrs. Bourke, and Coon. was unable
to attend court Saturday because az
illness. Her testimony will be taken
later.

Rarrxmors and Modisska.

Maurice Barrymore earned a
reputation as a wit and really de-
served it. His style could be less
successfully transferred to the
stage, as his efforts at comic writing
showed, but in its spontaneous
phases its effect always told. One
of the stories related was about his
experiences with Nine. Modjeska.
with whom he acted for several
years. He had been as careless as
he often was on the stage, and
Nine. Modjeska, with all the con-
scientiousness of a great artist, pro-
tested that he had no right to take
his calling so lightly and that if he
did not owe it to his reputation to
do his best he at least owed it to
her, because she had done so much
in his behalf and had put him be-
fore the public in a dignified and
serious line of parts.
"Why, madam" he said, cit is not
you who brought me before the
public and made me known. Peo-
pie had heard of me all over the
United States when they thought
that Modjeska was only the name of
a tooth wash"
