Missing-Fingers Men on Bus
Give Police Rare Coincidence.
This is the case of the Impossible
coincidence, which substantiates a
theory that a number of people have
long advocated—namely, that men
with two fingers missing off their
left hands are not necessarily fugi
tives from a chain gang.
Shortly after midnight, police re
ceived a call from North Carolina,
from a policeman who asked if the
local officers would be obliging
enough to step down to a bus station
and arrest a colored convict who
had escaped from a chain gang.
The convict was known to be on
the bus and he wouldn't be hard
to spot, the North Carolina officer
said. For the third finger and the
little finger on his left hand were
missing.
Detective Sergt. Thomas Nalley
and Policeman c. O. Rouse were
given a complete description of the
fugitive and sent down to appre
hend him. There was no sign of the
suspect on the bus, so the police
men went to anbther station.
There they found another bus
pulling in. They boarded it, looked
over the passengers and within a
few seconds spotted a colored man
who fitted the description exactly.
They looked at his left hand and
found that the two fingers were
missing.
So they detained him. He pro
tested loud and long that he was no
chain gang fugitive, but that is an
old story. Sergt. Nalley was leading
his prisoner away when his eyes fell
Mrs. Lizzie Kander,
Cookbook Author, Dies
By the Associated Press.
MILWAUKEE, July 25.—Mrs. Liz
zie Black Kander, 82, author of the
Settlement Cookbook, well-known to
housewives the Nation over, died
suddenly in her home here yes
terday.
The cookbook was the outgrowth
of her social work among Jews here.
She personally tested all recipes in
each of the book's 23 editions.
on the left hand of another colored
man on the bus.
The same two fingers were missing
from the same hand. The second
man fitted the description as to
height, weight, etc., as well as the
first.
So Mr. Nalley grabbed him. He
also denied the remotest connection
with chain gangs, North Carolina or
police.
For a long time Mr. Nalley talked
to the two. Then he thought of
something. He made them pull up
the legs of their trousers. The first
man’s legs were unmarked—but near
the second man’s ankles were the
marks left by shackles.
He took the second man to the
1st precinct after releasing the
first suspect. A few hours later
police found the prisoner semi- j
conacioua after an attempt to hang
hlnuelf in his cell.
He was removed to Oallinger Hoe
Pital for observation, after he vowed
to police that they would never re
turn him alive to North Carolina.

he lady has the right idea ...
The newspaper can be very rough on fam
ily discipline . .’. but when you’re an ad
vertiser with a bill of goods to sell, it can
do things for your sales curve that will
warm the chambers of your heart.
Take a tip from this outraged wife-and
mother ... if you have anything to say to
the family, or to any member of it, have
your message “printed in the paper.” The
newspaper has always had a way of cap
turing and holding the attention of the
entire family ... and of doing a firsteSass
selling job for advertisers.
And* today, when interest m news of the
world is at such a high pitch, the newspaper
is naturally a more logical, more econom
ical, more profitable place for your adver
tising than ever before.
