general description OF the man
sought.
The girl had been told not 10 say
anything In the presence OF the
men. II was the sheriffs intention
10 have her look at them first and
then tell him afterwards whether
she could recognize any Of them
This plan, he thought. would pre-
clude any outburst OF excitement
on the part OF the child, who has
not fully recovered from her wounds
and the shock OF her terrible ex-
perience.
But little Elizabeth's lips did not
stay closed. She looked hastily at
all the men. then her eyes rested
upon Livingstone.
That's the man." she said, as she
pointed at Livingstone. II can tell
him by that big nose"
The bone Just below the bridge
OF Iivingstone's nose Is unusually
broad, so much SO as 10 be an easy
mark OF Identification.
MY God, wouldn't do thing
like that" exclaimed the accused
man. "The worst thing | ever was
arrested for was being drunk"
Livingstone was arrested Thurs
day night in Detroit, at Catherine

is known in police vernacular as a
pick up"-merely a suspicious per
son against whom no specific Of
Tense can be charged at the time OF
arrest. In police headquarters II
was noticed that the lapel OF his
coat was blood-stained and that he
answered the general description
given by the Stilber girl
James s. Butler, road commits
sioner OF Oakland county, told Sher
in Green that he saw Livingstone
lying in the grass at woodwardavc
