| CHRISTMAS TRAVEL
! CONTINUES HEAVY

All the trains Friday were heavily
loaded with express, mail and baggage
as there were a great many people on
their way to their homes or to visit
with relatives or friends for the holi-
days. Many of the trains were run in
two sections and those that were not
were heavily loaded and were late
anywhere from 10 minutes to over an
hour. The traffic from the local station
was heavy and much express and
mail was handled here. The after
noon brought out strongly the utter in
adequacy of the local station. The gut
ter along the front of the station is
all to pieces and the water was COM
ing down In a sheet so that everyone
who wanted to get out of the train or
into 1t had to do so under a miniature
Niagara and it was a particularly try
ing time for the baggage, mail and
express handlers who were forced to
work in the driving rain for about 10
minutes which was the time required
for handling the large amount of goods
and parcels which were forwarded
from here and those taken from each
train. The employees at the station will
be q well-pleased bunch when the big
Christmas rush is over.

BAR TO SHOPPERS

Although the afternoon was stormy
and bad there was a good business in
the majority of the stores as it is get
ting SO near Christmas that the peo-
pie had to get out and buy whether
they wanted to or not. They also re-
membered last Saturday and many
feared that there might be something
like that coming and did not want to
get caught All through the shopping
center the people surged all during the
afternoon and evening and it was in
the stores and not on the streets that
they were to be found as no one stop
ped on the street any longer than they
had to. The merchants were hoping
for a pleasant day Saturday as they
felt certain of big business if the
day was anywhere near decent.

that his classification of the finger
print sent to him was correct. When
he had classified all Of the prints which
were sent him he wrote to the prison
and asked them to send him a print
without a name on it and he would
endeavor to pick It out from the list
of 210 which he had. He received the
print as requested and it took him
less than 10 minutes to classify it and
find the man. He then wrote to the
prison the name Of the man and the
answer received Friday shows that he
found the right one. In the letter Mr..

congratulates him on his quick discov-
cry Of tho right man and says that It
shows that he must be an expert in
