BERTILLON SYSTEM

The Bertillon system was named for AL
phonse Bertillion, who was at one time
chief of the identification bureau of police
in Paris. He adopted method of identi-
fication which has proved almost infalli-
BILE wherever used. The principles of the
system consist of taking measurements of
the least changing parts of the adult,
such as the length and breadth of the
head, length of the spine, forearm, finger,
nose, ear, etc.; in giving the color and
other characteristics of eye, color of hair,
ETC., and in giving marks, results of dis
ease, wounds, tatooing, ETC., which are re-
corded in regular order on cards and filed
away in groups according to some promi-
nent measurement. 1t is said that the
chances of identification error are but one
in 13,OO0,OOO.-Ex.

were able to get another runner stationed
upon third, but two men had been re-
tired before he reached there. Hick the
next man up was only able to hit the
shadow of the ball as it cut across the
plate thus leaving another stranded run
upon third base. This ended the locals
prospective chances for scoring. The

Well in the seventh inning had very poor
success in bracing up his teammates. By
