SCIENCE KEEPS UP
 WORK AGAINST MAN
Latest Inventions Help Reveal
 Criminals to Police

Paris. Aug. IT. = Poroscopy and sraphonnetry are two new "sciences'' intended to make the way of the transgressor harder than it is. Po- roscopy is tho science of measuring the pores of the body. Graphometry proportion of letters in handwriting.
 Dr.. Edmond Locard, head of the Lyons police laboratory of identif1ca- ton, has elaborated these new meth ods of crime detection to a point where the results have been accepted in the Lyons courts and are said to have been proved effective.
 In poroseopy, pr. Locard holds the number, form and position of body pores remain the same throughout life. The impression of the pores, in Dr. Locard's system is colored by chemical vapors or very fine powders 50 they may be photographed under microscope.
 Dr. Locard tells of several success full prosecutions supported by his new sciences. In one case a burglar wore gloves but left an impression of a small surface of forearm. That trace convicted him. Another burglar, per- spring freely, left the impression of pore surfaces through his gloves and went to jail.
 Graphometry. as termed by Dr. Lo- card, consists primarily in the theory that handwriting shows always a cer- tain relation in size between letters and unmistakable characteristics in form, particularly of loops. Tn addi- tion to these principles, Dr. Locard, of course. utilizes generally acepted methods of detecting forgeries.

TO HOLD HEARING
 ON JTNEY ROUTE .E ~--- Public Utilities Commission at
 Meriden Tomorrow N. ~. CHILDREN LEAVE
Little Tots, Greatly Improved in Health, Back in New York After Visit to Country-Many on Vaca- tiOns-Berlin Bits.

:. First Selectman George B. Carter, has received word from the public utilities commission that hearing on the proposed jitney route through Kensington from New Britain to AIeriden. will be held tomorrow morn ing at 10 o'clock standard time in the common council chamber at the Town Hall in Meriden. Representa- tives from the cities of New Britain and Meriden will be present and it ns a representative of Berlin. al- though MT. Carter will be unable to attend.
 MT. Carter states, however, that if no one from this town is able to at- tend word will be sent to the gather ing that Berlin Is in favor of the move. All town officials have ap- proved of such a route and hope that it will soon be a reality. The route of the jitney as stated in the plans is from New Britain to Meriden, be- ginning at Main street in New Brit ain. southerly on Arch street again on Kensington avenue in that city
  lean Paper Goods company plant, kensington center down the old "cat hole'' road into Capital avenue in Meriden. east on West Main street, across the railroad tracks then first street to the right and stop at Pit kins street near the plant of the Mcriden Morning Record The re- turn will be over the same route.
 There is no doubt in the minds of the local people but what the pro- posed jitney line by Edward B. French of New Britain will be a huge success. Tn order for the troll ley to reach Berlin street 1t is i'm possible for such to run near the American Paper Goods company and as arrangements arc at present it Is a long walk from the trolley in Kensington to the American Paper Goods company. It is believed that If the jitney line is adopted many liv- ing in the vicinity of the Paper Goods will patronize the jitney rather than the trolley~ as 1t will bring them nearer to their homes.
 How often tho jitneys will run on this route is not known, but if they ara run on a half-hour or an hourly schedule, they will satisfy tho major ity of people. The cat-hole road is being repaired by the town and will be in good condition for jitneys. If the proposition is favored by the Pub rc Utilities commission it is probable
 rt the 1itneys will be running early 7, fall.
 With the coming of the jitneys it IS possible that tho proposed trolley which was to have run along sini- lar route will be abandoned. MT. French has been given permission by tho trolley company to uso that cor poration's franchise on this road for a year. He will be given the privi- lege of purchasing rne franchise at the end of the year, providing the sc-"ice kc renders is satisfactory.
