STORIES ABOUT PEOPLE
Ae Knew Nv II Was Himself

Il should he promised that this
story Is absolutely true--even II
doesn't sound that way. says the New

! Times Star. A few days before
! Lieutenant Faurot, in charge OF the
finger print department at police head

THE negro. II nebbah been arrested

He gave his right name, too, ana
an address which proved TO be ac-
curate. But because the police still
suspected him. in spite OF his good
references they held him while Fau'
rot went through the records Of the
bureau. Finally he looked up al the
negro. What were you doing out a.

that he had burglarlzed a house, when
he was shown the finger prints he
had left on a pane of glass. He told
where he had pawned the silverware
and jewelry he had stolen, but he
still persisted that it was his first
offense. And then Faurot asked him
one more question Why said he,
did you open the cage door and let
that canary out?'

Her opinion of Congress

1
Representative Roddenbery, wis
comes to congress from Georgia, has
no illusions about the Importance o.
his Job or the esteem in which ma
ltional legislators are held at home
He tells this story:
! A little Georgia boy, whose father
had lust been elected TO the legisla
ture Of that state, said one day:
Nav, pops a pretty big man now
amt hep !,
"Oh, dunno answered his moth
er. :,
'df he makes a good record they II
send him to congress, won't they'
maw?"
Il dunno. Maybe. amt ever had
much use for congress since they
wouldn't pay for the cotton that was
stole durin' the war. Still, if they
want to send your paw up there II
don't make no difference as furs Ia
concerned. They can't swat congress
too hard to suit me. --Brooklyh
