On the chance that something related to our favorite police officer had been added to the Library of Congress archives, we ran a quick search this weekend, and sure enough … something came up.

Below is a photo from an article in The Evening Star, printed on Friday, June 29th, 1906 detailing upcoming police promotions to take place the following month.
