NEED GLOVES NOW
Success of Finger-Print System
Hard on Crooks.
Has Been Means OF Securing Many
Convictions and It's Use Is Being
Adopted More Widely BY
the Police.

indianapolis. operating In
indianapolis In the future win have TO
wear gloves, as the detective depart
ment henceforth win pay more at
attention to the practical side of the
anger-print system. Captain Of Detec-
tives Holtz, on a recent visit TO New
York. found the detectives there were
making use OF the finger-print system,
and he believes 1t will be a great help
In solving burglaries.
The detective department here has
used the finger-print system since it
was adopted by the national bureau OF
Identification. Ii has been used, how.
ever, more In identifying prisoners
with the Bertillon system. After a
prisoner has been brought in and his
Bertillon Identification has been com.
pleted, the finger-print cards were
used to verify the Identification more
completely
When ! was in New York recently
| found the police department using
the finger-print system to identify bur-
glars who leave finger prints around
the Job they have done" said Cap
tain Holtz. Several large burglaries
have been cleared in the east through
finger prints, and the detectives there
say burglars now wear gloves when
they are at work.
Il have always believed the finger
prints practical in police work. Ere
quently the finger prints of safe blow
ers are left on the door, and the or
dinary burglar is apt to leave finger
prints around door OF window.
THE trouble is, the finger print to
be of any service to police work, has
to be very clear, or the expert is un-
able to see enough lines to make an
Identification"
Bert Perrott, Bertillon clerk, is also
the finger-print expert Perrott, since
he has taken UP the finger prints in
connection with the Bertillon work,
has shown great skill Recently, as
test, a glass bottle was taken into
the detective department at roll call
Previously the detectives had gone to
Perrott's Office and he took the Inn
preston of their finger tips.
@AbcA ASdNAHS luS DONllo ESIIOI re-
turned to his Office Detective Frank
Duncan picked up the bottle and car
ried it to the other side of the room.
Perrott then took the bottle to his
office and compared the finger prints
with those he had taken of the vari-
ous detectives. He picked out Dun.
can as the man who had handled the
bottle.
The advantage of the finger prints
of the burglar to the detective is If
the burglar has ever been under ar
rest of a larceny charge a record of
his finger prints has been taken The
expert goes to the scene of the bur-
glary, takes an impression of the
finger prints. and then compares 1t
with the cards he has on file.

WATER WAGONS IN PARADE
Louisville Catholics Try an Innova-
tion Which Works Well on
Hot Day.

Louisville, Ky.-An innovation in
parades was started here when "a wa.
ter wagons were scattered at inter.
walls In the pageant of the American
Federation of Catholic societies. The
wagons were provided with distilled
water and individual drinking cups, in
which water boys carried drafts to
participants and spectators. On ac-
count of the intense heat many of the
marchers took advantage of the water
supply to keep wet handkerchiefs on
their foreheads. Even these precau.
tions did not prevent several heat
prostrations among marchers and par.
ticipants.

Pest Card Received From Unknown
Writer Informs Her of Hus-

Newark, N. Mrs Joseph Collins
of 81 Cleveland avenue. Harrison, re
ceived postal card stating that her
husband had died in the tuberculosis
hospital in Laurel Hill, Secaucus, and
that unless his body was claimed at
once it would be buried there. Col
Inns is an inmate of the institution,
and the last his wife heard from him
he was improving rapidly. Mrs. Col
Inns became hysterical and neighbors
who heard her cries went to console
her. It was noticed by one of them
that the card was unsigned and that
the postmark showed it had been
mailed in Harrison instead of Sacau-
Gus.
When neighbors we're consoling
Mrs. Collins, another took the card to
the police station, and the sergeant on
duty telephoned to the hospital In
quiring as to Collins condition. Word
came back that he was out for a walk.
The police will try to learn who play
ed the alleged practical joke" on
