Out of this trunk tho hoped skirt was pro-

II appears, from recent statistics, that
In 1890 there were in the various prisons
IN the United States and under sentence
for the several degrees Of criminal
homicide, 6,o5s males and sos females.
This is truly remarkable demonstra-
tion Of the superior character OF women
in respect TO violent and bloody crimes.
But very much the same sort Of dispro-
portion In favor Of women obtains with
regard to other crimes, since we learn
from the census bureau that while the
totals Of men at the same period
charged with all statutable offenses
were 1924, tho totals Of the other sex
similarly charged were only 6,4oS.
Thus II will be seen that in the matter
OF homicide the malo criminals were
seventeen times more numerous than
the female, while when all offenses
were considered, the male transgressors
were eleven times moro numerous.

Naive Army Recruits.

A point worth noting in the recent
report Of the ndjutant general OF the
army is that out Of the 9,s47 accepted
recruits for the last year Q, ,652 were ma.
tives Of this country against s.to5 Of
foreign birth. A popular misappre-
hension may be removed by thus OBJ
serving that such q ratio Of the men
who enlist are Americans by birth
The remainder. too. are taking short
cut TO citizenship. since the laws give
special privileges in naturalization to
those who serve honorably in the army
A second point on which Gen. Williams
comments is, in the opinion Of the New
York Sun, also worth attention. He
shows that the schools TO which army
officers are assigned as instructors Of
military tactics arc steadily increasing
in the number of their pupils. They
now have an aggregate Of ls.4s4. which
is gain of 2,7e7 over last year, and Of
5000 over the year previous. Presum-
ably, therefore, the introduction OF
this branch OF instruction makes the
schools themselves more popular. That
II is very economical form of provid-
ing for popular military education
there is no doubt. Fully $4,000 of these
pupils are reported to be physically ca.
pable of rendering military duty.
