Gradually the different churches are coming in and they will begin to draw their different members to the different organizations as they are perfected and the

religious work will be looked after as In other places. Until such time the missionary and interdenominational work will be carried on to take care of, as far as possible, the needs here.

Method Popular With Banks nnd Other

Institutions Gnfns Vogue With Large

Employer of Labor la Calumet Dis

trict.

Yesterday was pay-day at the Na

tional Smelting and Refining com

pany s works, Ninety-fifth street and

the lake, and all employes of the com

pany, from the assistant superintendents down to the commonest laborers, were required to acknowledge receipt

of their pay enveloDes bv nffivino-

thumb-prints to the pay-roll opposite

their numbers.

The thumb-print method of identifi

cation, lately adopted by banks having large numbers of depositors whose signatures are frequently Impossible to decipher, has lately come into vogue

with big corporations employing foreign-born workmen. Each man on being hired is required to stamp a print

of his thumb with printers ink on his employment card application, so that

an unauthorized person cannot draw his pay or perform his labor.

Recently a proposal to get thumbprints from persons arrested In crowded city districts who were released on bond and were likely to hire "ringers" to appear and submit to punishment.

was made as the result of the failure to secure the appearance of some Chinamen who were arrested in the Harrison street district on a charge of

gambling.

The National Smelting and Refining

company is one of the first of the large

employers of labor In the Calumet district to adopt this method of identification, and the system used does away with all signing of names. The thumbprint is made opposite the employes' number on the pay-roll sheet and the envelope is passed out.

East Siders Listen to Walter E. Schmidt

And Elect Officers. Walter E. Schmidt, county assessor,

spoke on the subject of real estate assessment, and in the progress of his speech displayed a wide knowledge of real estate values on the East Side. He urged the members of the association to cooperate with the assessor's office in establishing fair valuations of real property, and undoubtedly did much to allay the resentment usually felt by property owners at the methods now in use In establishing values.

The election of officers, which was part of the order of business, resulted in the selection of E. B. Macy, as president, Walter M. Krimbill as vice-president, John A. Harris as secretary and Charles A. Anderson as treasurer.
