HAVE SIMILAR FINGER MARKS.
important Discovery Made by Call fornia Professor as ts Pecuiisrities
 of Family Groups.

Prof. ]. A. Larson. instructor of physiology in the University of Cali fornia, announced a new discovery in connection with finger prints which is likely to have s remarkable influence on many important cases that con cern the law courts of California.
 Briefly, Professor Larson's discovery indicates that similarity of finger prints among members of s family is sufficiently marked to enable scientists to trace family groups and determine positively whether given individual is really member of the family to which he claims relationship.
 The importance of the discovery In probate cases such as the Slingsby case is obvious.
 Should Dr. Larson's new discovery be accepted by law and science. the Slingsby decision may be reversed. as well as many other analogous cases.
 Dr. Larson's investigations began In 1913 at the Boston university.
 "Since that time I have examined prints of members of approximately 100 families" he said, "and am satis- ted in my own mind that such 8 means of Identification is possible. | am preparing detailed reports of my work now in order that science may be benefited by my discovery. Before I complete this, however I expect to Investigate the prints of fifteen or twenty additional families so as to re- move all doubt as to the accuracy of my discovery."-Ss Francisco Chron- icle.

Our Own Masters.

We have been told that America Is to save the world and rescue civilization from dissolution, but we must do it in our way; in the way that has made us, in little more than century, the most unified, the most virile. and the most potent single power in the world. And when we ask ourselves what it is that has given us this unity, this virility, and this potency, the an- swer is, that we have founded this nation upon principles of law, and upon the guarantees Of individual rights under the law. That is our great contribution to civilization; and if we are to be of use to other nations, old or new, our first thought must be to remain our own masters, to pre- serve our independence, to control our own forces as nation by our own laws, and to protect our heritage of organized liberty from any form of detraction or perverSion. - David Jayne Hill in the South American Re- view.

Giant Warrior of Middle Ages.

The pride and magnificence that played their part in the days of chiv' airy can hardly have better illus. traitor than the suit of equestrian armor which has recently been placed on exhibition in the Metropolitan Mu- scum of Art, in New York city. Sieur Jacques Gourdon de Genouilhac wore the suit in the sixteenth century, and Sieur Jacques was an uncommonly large and powerful warrior, who serv- ed under Louis XII. and Francis l. of France. As may be deduced from their armor, the knights of the period were not noticeably large men, and Sieur Jacques must have seemed veritable giant, for six-foot attendant at the museum has tried on his armOr and is said eo have merely rattled around In it."

AMBER FORMED BENEATH SEA
Precious Material by the Action ri of the Eiements.

The worlds supply of amber, that rare and therefore precious substance, the "gold of the north" as it has been called, comes from the coast of Sam land in the eastern Prussian penin- sula, between the towns of Burstrort and Palmnicken, and here the shafts of a famous mine run out under the Baltic and the miners are actually working under water. Ages ago the country was a land of pine forests which the ocean overwhelmed; the pine trees vanished beneath the sur face of the sea, and then, century by century, the wood became fossilized and the natural resin of the pines was turned into amber Millions of years were needed to transform the resin Into amber, and the search for amber has developed romantic and picturesque episodes like those that have become part and parcel of the story of gold and diamonds. An amber mine, how ever, is not necessarily under water. and there is an open-air mine at Palm nicken where amber is dug for in much the same way as diamonds are sought in the mines of Kimberley. In nor nal times this one mine provides oc- cupation for about 5000 amber seekers.

Sea Mesa

Owing to the war the supply of sea moss," of which several hundred thousand pounds, valued at almost $50 900, have been imported annually, for the most part from France and Germany, has virtually come to an end. Sea moss (not seaweed) is the popular name of several kinds of small marine animals that grow in colonies of branching, plantlike form. Their commercial value arises from their having a horny skeleton which preserves the general plantlike shape of the growth.

From 1869 to 1893 she was president
of the National Woman Suffrage as
addressed congressional committees
on woman suffrage. She was the joint
author of History of Woman SUf-
frage" (1SS1-S) and Eighty Years
or More" t1S95) is her autobiography.
A third name is that Of Susan B.
Anthony (1S20-1906). She Joined with
Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady
Stanton in organizing the woman Suf-
frage movement. She became in time
the real leader of the movement; GER
tainly she was its first militant suf-
fragist. Born in Adams. Mass, she
came of Quaker stock. and early devot-
ed herself to Temperance" 1.-THE pro
hibition of those days) and TO she sbO-
lition of slavery. -
In 1875 Miss Anthony drafted the
amendment to the Constitution which
has now been ratified. In 1878 the
amendment was introduced in the SEN
ate by Senator Sargent of California.
II was defeated in 1887 and thereaf-
ter was not even debated in congress
until 1914.
During the years the Constitutional
amendment campaign was making no
progress the women won many victO-
ries in the states, securing full suf-
frage in IS; presidential suffrage in
II and partial suffrage in several 9TH
erS.
The National American Woman
Suffrage association in 1912 opened
headquarters in Washington and be-
gan an active campaign for the
passage of the amendment. In 1915
il established branch headquarters
there which were devoted entirely to
the amendment campaign. Ehe cam
paign was educational and social as
well as political and attracted world
wide attention.
The National WOman's party. or
ganized in 1910 by Alice Paul, estab-
lished Washington headquarters in
1913 and introduced the militant into
the campaign.
Alice Paul--the third Quakeress to
immortal.ze herself-is the spectacu-
lar figure of the struggle. She devel.
oped the deadliest card index on MEM
bers of congress that practical politics
has ever seen. She served notice
through the White House pickets that
the president was the IMAM higher up"
The arrest of nearly 500 of these pick
cts and the imposition of Jail SEN
fences followed. Incidentally Miss
Paul herself served seven terms in
Jail.
The amendment was beaten three
times in the senate and once 10 the
house before it was finally passed by
the Sixty-sixth congress June 4, 1919,
by the necessary twO-thirds majority.
The year 1869 saw the formation Of
two national organizations: National
Woman Suffrage association. with Mrs.
The Concordia sentinel. (Vidalia, Concordia Parish, La.) 1882-current, 1920-08-28

Stanton and Miss Anthony leaders and
headquarters in New York; American
Woman Suffrage association. with
Mary A. Livermore, Julia Ward Howe
and Lucy Stone leaders and headquar-
tiers in Boston. The line OF division
was this: The former wished to
concentrate on the passage of con-
stitutional amendment; the latter
was In favor of obtaining the suf-
frage through amendments to state
constitutions. In 1890 the two organ
izations were united under the name
of National American Woman Suf-
fage Association, and work was
pushed along both lines Of endeavor.
Mrs. Stanton was president until
1892. Miss Anthony served until
1900. resigning at the age of eighty.
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait was its
head, 1900-1904. DR.. Anna Howard
Shaw, recently deceased and possibly
best loved of all the leaders, worn-
an of transcendent gifts and elo.
quence-was president until 1915.
Mrs. Gait was then again chosen.
Mrs. Frank Leslie left a large legacy
to Mrs. Gait TO be used in the work.
The National association made ar
rangements at the st. Louis conven-
ton of 1919 TO dissolve its Organiza-
ton and become the League of WOm-
en- Voters. These arrangements be
came effective at the Chicago conven-
toin in February last. So the League
of Women Voters now holds sway
over something like 27,000OOO pO-
tentiaI American women voters.
Mrs. Gait, who is also the head of the
International Woman Suffrage ALI
ance, which she founded in 1904, is
honorary chairman; Mrs. Maud Wood
Park is chairman; Mrs. Richard Ed
wards of Indiana, treasurer; Mrs.
Scion Jacobs Of Alabama, secretary.
and there is a board Of regional d.
rectors.

ROBBED OF $4,000
Robbery Committed With Seven De-
tectiVes end 20 Policemen
Near BY.

Los Angeles, Cai.--The safe in
Police Judge Ray L. Chesebro's court
room, in Central Police Station, was
robbed of approximately $4,000. it
was discovered when court opened.
The robbers overlooked more than
$4,000.
The courtroom Is directly over the
Detective Bureau, where seven de-
tectives and about 20 policemen were
on duty at the time of the robbery.
The robbers apparently gained en-
trance through adjoining offices, by
using pass keys, and had the combina-
ton of the safe. The safe door and
mechanism were intact, but an inner
cash box was smashed.
The police indicated they would
commence their investigation by in-
quiring into why so much bail money,
all in currency, was left In the safe.

WarSaw.-RepOrtS of Polish MILL
tary successes came to Warsaw while
the population was eagerly awaiting
news from MinSk. where the Polish
peace delegates are to negotiate with
the representatives of the Russia Sow
let government. The only report Of
the delegates was a Moscow wireless
message stating that the party had
arrived in Minsk.
A successful counter offensive was
launched on the Warsaw front under
the leadership of President PilSudski
as cOmmander-in-chief
On the northern front, where ten
BOlshevik divisions are striking to-
ward the ViStula as part of the man
euver against Warsaw, and on the
Warsaw front it was announced that
the Reds have been driven back at
several points.
Polish movements, aided by heavy
artillery, are forcing the Bolshevik
gradually to withdraw from various
places where for days pressure upon
the capital has been greatest.
In the fighting in the region of Rad
Zymin, northeast of Warsaw, the Poles
have taken many prisoners, including
a BOlshevik cOmmisSary and brigade
commander. During the battle here
Polish chaplain of the Eighth Infan-
try Division, Ignacy K9rupka, was
killed while leading the attacking
forces clad in his church robe and
with a crucifix in his hand.
