MACON SLEUTHS REGULAR
FINGER-PRINTJSHERLOCKS
MACON, GA., Nov. 23.—Macon police
have worked out a real Sherlock
Holmes case, arresting a negro who
burglarized the office of a local lumber
company with only the blood finger
prints on a dusty desk as a clew. The
linger prints indicated that a man's
tight hand .had been cut. and as the
window was smashed in order to effect
an entrance it was guessed that the
burglar wounded himself in that way.
After three days of watching, the po
lice arrested a negro who had three cuts
on his right hand. Witnesses were
found who swear that they saw the ne
gro near the plant on the night of the
robbery. He was formerly employed at
the place, and was familiar yvith the
premises. He has been bound over to
the supeiior court for trial.

poured out their enthusiasm in dinners,
class rallies and a brand new Wilson
yell yvith nine rahs and three sizzes in
it. But McCombs went over to Tren
ton, took Governor Wilson’s mail home
with him in a suit case and appointed
himself chief secretary and campaign
manager for the ex-professor. He let
his law practice go to the other fellows
in the office and devoted his attention
to the case of Wilson VS. Taft et al. He
won his verdict before the highest cour
on November 5.
Three years ago McCombs yvaS un
known, except as a rising young law
yer, and New York is so full of them
that they rarely get in the papers. But
that Wilson boom began growing so
fast that one morning McCombs came
downstairs for his grapefruit and cof
fee and found a battery of photogra
phers ready to snapsoht him eating
breakfast, opening mail, dictating let
ters. shaking hands yvith a senator and
pointing out Democratic victory yvith
the index finger of the right hand. Then
McCombs knew the Wilson boom
wasn't all a pipe dream. He has been
on the front page every other day since
then, and unless all signs fail, there'll
be a new photo of him in the papers
along about March, yvith a brand new
title under it. For McCombs is looked
upon as the man yvho won with Wilson,
and if there's anything he wants, all he
need do is whisper it in the president's
ear.
Sees End of All
Dissension in Ranks.
Mr. McCombs is extremely sanguine
over the future of the Democratic par
ty. He seems to believe it isn’t merely
a four-year term ahead, but a Demo
cratic regime in power as long as the
party behaves.
"The election and Its victory has
welded the party togetherws It has not
been in years,” he said. "Old factional
lines in many states have been forgot
ten in the love feast which followed tri
umph. The factions came together to
elect Wilson, and they will stay togeth
er now. The quarreling in the family
virtually has ceased."
