Absolute identification Certain When
the PraotIeed sieuth Takes Up
the Trail.

Many years ago Mark Twain, in
his delightful story Of "Puddin' Head
Wilson" declared that every mans
identity, and often, even his destiny
is always on his finger tips. Twice
on one day this has been recognized
In different parts OF the country. IL
was found that the men who used a
launch for the purpose of taking dyna-
mite from the Giant powder works
were not the McNamaras. Several
finger prints completely exploded the
theory. They are, however, the tracks
By which others may be overtaken.
There could be no doubt that ED
gar r. Jay" arrested In st. Louis for
forgery a week after he had mar
ried, is Jay Gould Hay. alias Jay
Gould, alias julie Lee. He can not
escape the Identity OF his finger prints
at the Indiana and Missouri reforma-
tories.
II was only last year that there
were two remarkable warnings to the
criminal class to wear gloves. Charles
Crispi was arrested and convicted for
burglary In New York solely because
he left behind on window glass four
finger marks. They were only a few
hairline etchings, but they singled out
of millions of people the only one
who could have made them. 1t was
difficult to obtain a jury that would
convict on finger print evidence alone,
but when it was shown that there is
only one chance in sixty-four billions
that two finger prints will be alike.
that there was no great likelihood Of
any two of the 1000, 100000 people
now on the earth being able to make
the same finger markings, the prison
er gave up. Again, In New York, was
the remarkable case growing out Of
the murder of Isaac Vogel, an timer
ate jewel broker 1t was a single i'm
print of finger on a silver cigarette
case that led to the arrest of Joseph
Roberts.
Thus far finger print evidence is
associated in the public mind with
criminology But the day may come
when people registering to vote will
be required to press their thumb
down next to their names. Philadel
phia reformers, who are battling
against the foater and duplicate vot
ing system, advocate 1t. They insist
that it is only step beyond requiring
the voter to write his name at regis
tration and again-by the side of the
first signature-when he comes to
vote. 1t is thought the finger print
would stop fioaters.

NNe's war ROBE On view FINGER PRINTS TELL TALES
A. the Museum IN New York City
You May See the Feathers
Kamehameha ~. Wore.

As an example of the past royalty
OF Hawaiian kings, remarkable
feathered war robe, once the property
of Kamehameha Ill, and said to be
the equal in value or diamond ornar
ments in several Of the European re-
gala, is displayed In the hall of South
Sea Islands at the American Museum
Of Natural History. This emblem OF
Hawaiian royalty was presented by
the king OF the islands to Commodore
Lawrence Kearney, U. 8. NJ, in 1s4y.
Il Is a war cape with a history and.
according to DR.. Brigham, an author
ity on Hawaiian feather work, a sim
liar cloak, completed in the reign Of
one Of the kings Of the islands, was
In process Of fabrication through eight
previous eras.
The Kamehameha royal cape Is
made of innumerable feathers Of the
Iiwi and 90 birds, which were hunted
in the ravines and wooded slopes OF
the mountains Of Hawaii for the dec
grafton OF these robes OF rank. The
royal cape, which is crescent-shape,
consists entirely of small red and yell
low feathers, which are interviewer
upon q fiber network made from the
bark Of the Olona plant. Contrary to
1 the custom OF the Peruvians. who first
made the feathers fast to cord and
then knotted the cord to a cloth, the
Hawaiians attached the feathers sep
arately to the netting.
Although a fortune in labor is rep
resented, the feathered war robe only
weighs six pounds. 1t was presented
to the museum by George S. Bowdoin,
and is mounted fiat between two
plates of glass, as is another speci-
men, which is said to have been used
by a former owner as a sleigh robe,
in ignorance of its great value.
Among the noted collections con
tanning specimens of this craft are
those at Windsor castle, which in.
cludes examples given by Queen Vic
toria, and Lord Brassy's, whose
trophies includes a rope brought to
England by Captain Cook. In the
archives of the Hawaiian islands a
history of each cloak made has been
inscribed. The capes are sometimes
worn at ceremonials in the islands to
denote the rank of the wearer.

Brides Love Of a Clay Pipe.

Rather than give up smoking her
cherished clay pipe an Irish bride
named Johanna Wood has left the
workhouse at Faversham, Kent. Her
husband, who was also an inmate Of
the workhouse, has left with her.
With a careless disregard of the
fact that they were both practically
destitute, the man and the woman.
whose ages are respectively sixty-two
and forty-nine, we're married on De-
cember IL. The honeymoon was spent
at the workhouse.
"Mrs. Wood" stated one of the
workhouse officials yesterday, "seem-
ed to find her greatest source Of pleas
ure in tobacco. She smoked a clay
pipe and would not have parted with
It for anything On being taxed with
smoking In the workhouse she said:
I cannot do without my pipe; l have
smoked since l was little girl She
was told that she must either give up
smoking or leave the workhouse. She
elected to take the latter course and
left with her husband. London Daily

Bother the Buttonl

All know the annoying habit but
tons have of coming off at a mo-
ment when they are most needed,
says Answers" 1t seems sometimes
as though nothing short of wire
thread will keep them in their places;
and even wire breaks away from the
cloth.
When next you are sewing on a
button, follow these directions, and
that button will never trouble you
again.
Place your button. take a hairpin-
a strong one-and lay it across the
button, then sew it over the hairpin.
When you have put as much thread
through the eyes as they will hold,
withdraw the hairpin. Then push the
needle through near the button, pull
the button up, and wrap the thread
several times round between the but
ton and garment. Fasten the thread
on the under side of the button. and
then you will find that that button
will stay on until the garment is worn
out.

Baseball Language.

Baseball language, like West Point
French, is something different. Like
all successful literature, 1t embodies
the attempt of the intellect to sur
mount obstacles. In poetry the OBJ
stacle is rhyme and rhythm; in
drama 1t is the "unities,"' the prin-
clple Of suspended interest, the need
to tell complete story in less than
three hours. In baseball writing the
obstacle is the fact that there are
only two things In the game. batting
and fielding; that In each OF tho two
big leagues there are about loo
games to be reported. one very Ike
another, and that the sapience of
'fandom" Is such that its members
by scanning the scoring tables can
visualize a game as completely as the
broker can visualize q scene on
change from his ticker.
The problem of the sporting column
is to tell the reader something he
cannot get from the score, and so to
report day after day for six months
the interplay OF batting and fielding,
that one days story shall be unlike
another's. Hence the flights of fancy
which turn a ball into pill" a
pitchers arm into a SALARY whip"
and his fast one" into his Smoke"
Hence the conception of an emery
ency pitcher as at once "the wreck
ing crew" and old doc Crandall."

neIasco'a FIowsry Apology.

David Belasco, who bows with such
modesty before the curtain calls that
greet the presentation of his dramat-
ic successes, occasionally loses his
temper during rehearsals of plays.
and when he gets angry he does the
thing up brown. For the time being,
there isn't q peaceful thought In his
fertile brain. When he began the
rehearsals OF "Sweet Kitty Bellairs,'
Miss Henrietta Crossman. the star Of
the piece, warned him that he must
not scold her.
A few days before the first public
production, however, Belasco broke
out in one OF his fine tempers, and
Miss Crosman, with head in the air,
left the stage and the theater. She
was walking rapidly up the street
when she heard the rush of footsteps
behind her. Turning around. she saw
the manager. with his arms full Of
flowers. These he held out to her
imploringly.
This tribute effected reconcilia-
ton. On the way back to the theater
TING star noticed flower stand COM
pletely denuded OF its stock. Belasco
in his pursuit OF the fleeing actress.

Cooking the 'Possum.

Mayor Bryan Callaghan of San An
tonic, Tex. is very fond of 'possum
and is particular about the way IT is
prepared for the table. He gives the
following directions:
"Never plunge a 'possum into boil
ing water. That hardens the flesh
and makes It tough. First bleed the
'possum, and after it is drawn i'm
merse it in a pot of cold water and
bring the water TO a boil After be-
ing parboiled for a reasonable time
take 1t out. put some laurel leaves, a
little oil and some chilli peppers in
side 1t and pack in ice and put aside
for day or two.
