COLUMBIA, S. C.fl SHOES TELL TALE Criminal's Tracks as Qood ai His Calling Card. ! ? Interesting Story of Mow Hun Aflont Who Attempted to Blow Up Mu nitlon Plant Wao Speedily i Brought to Juetlce. y During the late wa?. while labor troo cles, strikes and rioting were brought about by enemy agents, whleb Inter fered with the production of war ma terlal. a daring attempt wa? made to de stroy a large munition plant. But th? bomb planted under a pile of boxes In the fuetory failed to explode, says the Boston Qlobe. . The criminal forced entrance through a window by the use of a Jimmy ; hla^ fingerprints were found smeared all over doorknobs and window sills; but he had worn gloves and the prints were useless aa evidence. Deep foot Impressions pointing to ward the factory were found on the grounds surrounding the plant. These were traced to the window where the entrance had been forced. The deep footprints Indicated that the one who made them had been carrying a heavy object, and as he had taken long steps. It showed he was a tall man.4' A chiropodist stationed at a nearby army camp was called Into the case and he made several casts of the footprlnta lending to the factory. The reaulta of the casts shpwed that* the criminal had worn a pointed-toed, English last aboe, with a broad heel ; the shoe had been recently half-soled, and that there were heel plates of a foreign make on the heels. There was a marked pronation of the Internal lat eral border and also a marked abduc _lion.of *h*r right foot." which proved a flat right foot Who was this "John Doe" with a marked right foot, wearing pointed toed, English last shoes, recently half soled, with foreign make plates on the heels? What cobbler carried Import ed heel plates and had lately attached a pair to a newly half-soled, pointed toed, English last shoe? The rest was easy. John Doe was apprehended within 48 hours and la now behind prison bars. In footprints the same rldRe forma tion will be found as In fingerprints, hut footprints taken from the bare foot aro only found occasionally, because most people wear shoes. Shoe and boot prints may at times play an Im portant part In the detection of crime, because they reproduce the character istics of the wearer. Podiatrists claim that determination Is Indicated by the feet kept In a par ? allel position; a caleulatlve and curl 1 ous person toea out considerably ; shift 1 lessness and hesitancy Is Indicated In a awaylng walk; while good health la shown by a brisk gait. Sick people drag their feet along the ground. Iu the examination of shoe or boot prints we will be able to determine the exact type of the shoe worn. It will also show heel plates, patches, pegs, stitches, extra nails, and where the shoe is worn more or less. All these marks present very strong evidence that may lead to the appre hension of a criminal; as each Indi vidual by the reason of his own pe culiar gait, manner of walking, etc., I wears out every puir of shoes In the ! very same areas. "Old Dwelling Now a Theater. The Sip manor, built In 1C00, has been sold and will be razed to make way for a moving picture theater. The manor stands at Bergen avenue and Newklrk street, Jersey City, and Is said to bo the oldest structure In this part of the world, a New York correspondent of the Pittsburgh Dis patch writes. The site for the manor was granted on January 2, 1002, by Potrus Styvesant to Nicholos Varleth and Balthazar Bayard/> In 1770, Lord CornwaMIs and a troop of British In fantry passed through what was thch Bergen and the English commander slept in the Sip manor that night. When Lafayette visited Colvarlck, In Bergen, he planted two elm trees near the Sip manor. The old dwelling was erected of stones gathered In the neighborhood and filled in with yellow clay and rub ble. The place hns been Improved from time to time, but the original walls stand today as they were when built. Simplifies Launchlngs. A Mr steel cargo boot was launched successfully some weeks niro by the throw of a single electric switch, says Popnlnr Mechanics Magazine. Side wise launchings have been preclplfnted hitherto by skilled axinen. who chopped through the launching rabies at a pjlven signal. Inattention on the part of one man, with this old method, sometimes resulted In an uneven prog ress d iwn the ways, or even In dlsas- ! ter. With the new system, heavy wooden guillotines take the plaoes of i the avmen. The weighted blades are h?*ld at the tops of the frames by the ?' 'motion of electromagnets; when the current Is broken, all the blades de- , srer.d simultaneously and the vessel . strikes the water on an even keel. Wens Coal Mines in Bad Shape.
