Recording Finger Prints.

Hitherto it has been customary IN
following up criminal clews,: to make
a permanent record of finger prints by
Photographic means. This method
however. has a number of obvious dis
advantages. Thus, for example, cases
arise in which the finger print to be
recorded is not accessible to an ordi-
nary camera. Or again it may be To-
Gated upon some rounded surface
which cannot be properly focused
DR.. Heindl describes one or two new
methods which overcome these diff
culties. The first method consists IN
busting the REPRESENTATION is al
ways more or less greasy-with some
colored powder, and then expressing
against it paper treated with mix
ture of fifty grams wax, fifty grams
paraffin. and twenty drops OF glycerin
An excellent inverted copy is thus OBJ
tanned, and as the paper is entirely
flexible any kind of a surface can be
TINS treated. The second method
makes use of Photographic gelatine
paper in place of that prepared as
above. The Argus.

ties arms and claiced the reward he
wanted hest-just to be home again.
Rex started out some weeks ago,
and being of kindly disposition and
friendly sort he followed down to the
Princess Adelaide a few loggers who
were going to Victoria.
Rex liked their careless elegance Of
dress and the friendly smell of their
labor torn hands and just followed
along to see where they were going.
The loggers took Rex to Victoria,
then didn't bother any more with him.
Here he had gone on a long voyage,
and no friends. So he remained for
some time around the C. P. r. sheds
until he was noticed, and, being col
larless. he was tied up for week,
Finally a baggageman fell under
Rex's Establishments and decided 10
take him home and look after him
until the owner was found.
But Rex pinned for home and it was
not very long until he decided that he
would explore around and try to find
his master again. So he boarded the
steamer Joan and went to Gangcs
harbor for while. Later he got tired
of finding no master there and re-
turned to Victoria and into the arms
of the kindly baggageman. And now
Rex finally is back, having come over
here with the Joan on a recent trip

the morals court in Chicago and the

the "Seaman's servitude' bill, which
recently passed the Senate probably
will be the first measures Of gen.
eral character considered by Congress.
Extensive hearings will be given by
the House committee on Judiciary pre-
liminary to any decision as to the form
of antitrust legislation. The first
measure to be brought forward prob
ably will be designed to prevent inter-
locking directorates among industrial
concerns. This inter relation of large
corporations has been the subject OF
repeated attacks by Congressional and
federal investigating bodies. Other
subjects of the antitrust program VIII
include price cutting by monopolles,
over -capitalizat restraint OF trade
and the more adequate control OF cor
porations, probably through an inter-
state corporation commission.
Investigations to determine. the
cause of increased prices in food prod
ucts are expected to begin soon after
the session opens. Resolutions demand
ing such inquiries are new before Con-
gress.
Rep. Mcclellan of Tennessee has in
troduced comprehensive bill to pro-
vide. for more adequate regulation OF
monepolies and punish combines which
control food prices or parcel out selling
territory and other measures of like
character will be introduced, this
week
1t is expected that soon after Tho
passage of the currency reform Dill
the work of devising an adequate sys-
tenn of rural banks will be undertake
en- by Congress. and an effort made tf
enact legislation before adjournment
next summer.
The naval. building program of the
year is expected to develop anew the
fight between the so-ealled economy
forces. who, last year, held Congress
to the authorization of one dread
nought, and the administration forces,
who will support Secretary Daniels
recommendations for two ships. 9th
err phases of national defence are to
be considered by Congress include the
bill to give the naval militia ma
tional standing similar to that enjoy
ed by the National Guard, and the
Hobson bill to create council of ma :
tional defence to outline the general
military and naval policies of the ma
ton.
The attempt to secure laws giving
federal aid to vocational schools and
to agricultural extension work will be
renewed early in the winter. These
projects, coupled with the fight Tor
laws giving federal aid to the con-
struction of roads in all states will
unite forces that have been at work
for several sessions to secure such
legislation.
