Characteristics of Criminals.

The measure around the skull of the criminal, taken horizontally, is always less than that around the skull of the upright man, and his brain is found to be lighter, his constitution feebler, too, and his heart is weak. But even among culprits themselves there are great diff ferences-thus the highway robber is naturally found to be taller than the pickpocket, and the bones of his skeleton are stronger. He and the murderer, when they write at all, write large round hand with many fourishes. The thief writes with effeminacy, a small hand.
 These people are apt to give the stu dent surprises. He finds, for instance, that they are not habitually cruel Wan ton murderers will be kind to a pet. Where they are cruel it is the women who are most so, and who discover the most shocking forms of cruelty, and all ] though a few have talent they are all wanting in the ability to use their talent to advantage, but most of them have great stupidity.
 They are fiighty and faithless always, clinging long to nothing. And with it all they are extraordinarily superstitious. The one satisfactory thing that comes out of all this investigation is the estab- i lishment of the fact that education di- minishes the tendency to crime, and that i as by slow degrees the day shall come when whole generation is educated the children of that generation will be born with less and less tendency to crime or to crime made easy.-Harper's BaZar.

An Unrehsarsed Performances.

An amusing scene was recently enact ed at Lille. At the conclusion of one of his performances, Sarbacan, the conjur- CT, addressed the audience as follows: Coming to the sensational part of the programme, 1 now propose to decapitate one of the spectators. Any gentleman who would like to undergo the operation is invited to step on the platform"
 At these words there arose a young man from ArmentierCs, who. in fit of jealousy, hal quarrclel with his intend ed, and he ran up the steps leading to the platform. firmly resolved in his despair to have his head cut off. Everything was now ready for tine iecapitation. and the "udlence sHt waiting in brcathlcss suspense. N hen suddcnly the sweetheart of the knight of the rucful counte- nance" rushed upon the stage. exclaim- ing:
 No. Paul! You shall not die!" where upon she clasped her lover in her arms and dragged him with main force out of the booth.
 As may be readily conceived, this pa thetic scene had quite an exhilarating effect upon the spectators.-Lyons Re publican.

A PERFECT SUMMER.

They say the sun as brightly shines as in the years agone; They say the grass is just green out on tho shady lawn, And that the birds as sweetly sing up in the waving leaves As when sat together, dear. among Tho golden sheaves- It may be so. The bees arc humming, And the smell of the clover is rare and sweet: But mem'ry's fingers at my hearistrinSs drumming Wake a song of a joy that was too fleet The glowing sunshine grows pale around me: The grass is faded, tho bird song faint; I catch not the charm of the scenes that sur round me, For thy voice answers not to my hearts lone plaint- The change is not in the suns bright shining. The song of the birds, the hum of the bees; For the charm of that old time was not in re- clining In the lap of summer beneath tho green trees I love the bright sunshine. the birds sweetly singing, As sit alone meath the old apple tree; But wait with fond longing. to dear hopes close clinging, That each summer time brings me nearer to thee. For the rythm in tho melody of that happy measure Was the sound of thy voice, to me moro than dear, And ne'er can Hfe's music so thrill me with pleasure Till thy murmuring tones fall again on my ear So trustingly yearn for Q happy home com ing, A heaven made perfect by thy presence so rare: For through tho Elysium 'twouId be weary. lonc roaming If thou vert not with nc its Glorics to share.

RACING OVER OCEAN.
New Steamer Campania Breaks
ALI Transatlantic Records.
GIBBONS TO MEET DEMPSEY


QUEENSTOWN, May 12-The new Gu
harder. Canpania, arrived this morning
from New York, beating the record for an
eastward passage. going it in days. IL
hours and AZ minutes. There was great
Jubiiation over the victory. 1t was a race
between the Campania and the City of
Paris, of the American line. The City of
Paris passed Sandy Hook lishtship at 10 80
.. m. on Saturday. May s, and the Cam
pania at 11:l3. The latter gained steadily
on her rival and passed her 103 miles east
OF Sandy Hook. From that time on the
Campania did not again sight the City of
Paris. The best previous eastward time
was that of the City of Paris from New
York last August, days, 10 hours and 81
minutes.
LIVERPOOL, May 12.-The Cunard Com
pany has made arrangements to land the
passengers Of the Campania on the arrival
of the steamer at Liverpool tonight. This
is unprecedented in the history of trans
atlantic travel. The Office of the company
Is thronged with an excited crowd of peo-
pie, betting whether the passengers by the
Campania will be landed at Liverpool be-
fore or after the passengers of the City OF
Paris are landed at Southampton.
The Campania landed her passengers
here at 10 o'clock, and thus beat all prev-
Gus records. She steamed from Queens
town to Liverpool in 10 hours and 8 min
utes. or at the rate of % IS knots per hour.
The officers of the Campania cannot say
enough in praise of her engines and sea-
going qualities. The Cunard Company is
receiving numerous kilograms of congratu
lations.
1.-The Campania was completed in 1898, and
this was her maiden voyage. she is the biggest
and finest passenger steamer afioat. Her dimen-
sions are: Length, 6o5 feet: beam, 81 feet;
depth, Al feet Her engines are $500 horse
power, and her tonnage is 1900 As illustrating
the advance in the construction OF ocean steam

RUSSELL GROWS MAD.
British Counsel Causes Another
Row in Boring Sea Case.
The NICARAGUA REVOLUTION.
us,ister Guxman Thinks That the Reb.
Battle to Be Fought Soon.

p,rrs May 1o.-Sir Charles Russell con-
enued his address in behalf of the British
s,,e before the Bering sea tribunal Of
sb.:ration today. Sir Charles discussed
ths rights of Russia in The Boring sea
snde. the treaties between Russia and the
rni,ed States and between Russia and
6.sat Britain. Sir Charles contended that
ne treaties in question recognized merely
v-ri,orial rights. Sir Charles next re-
aired to the forged interpretations in the
American case as originally presented and
argued. When the forgeries were ex-
tscted from the case nothing remained of
What was claimed to have been derived
from Russia.
American Agent John w. Foster ex-
sained that the contents of the documents
ssre unknown until the American case
had been prepared, AS soon as the forgery
vas discovered the documents were with
6ragn.
Sir Charles replied that while the docu-
uents were Withdrawn the formal case de-
,ending on the documents was not
materially changed.
Hon L. J. Phelps, of American counsel,
rv,orted that the American case had been
resta,ed in the counter case. The discus
sion was of an acrid character, the pro-
ceedings since Sir Charles began having
been characterized by more heat and tenn
per than az any time since the opening of
the tribunal.
Sir Charles Russell contended that the
American statutes did not intend origi-
naly to treat the Bering sea as a mare
elaaspm. bu. the American courts so inter-
preted il at the instance of the American
government. In proof of this assertion
be cited the copy of brief for the United
States which declared that mare ciausam
vas the only relief.
Phelps-We dispute the authenticity of
that copy.
Rassell--I am prepared forthwith to
submit proof Of the authenticity of its
correctness. The copy really questioned
was not the original produced long since.
Continuing his argument, Sir Charles
said the court which condemned the ves-
sells seized in Boring sea sat as a munich
pa court interpreting American law, not
y prize court administering interna-
tional law. This proved beyond dis
pUte that the seizures were made on
the ground that the whole of Bering
sea was portion OF the United States
territory, and not on the ground of those
novel principles of international law
enunciated by the United States counsel
at the opening Of the arbitration. In
conclusion Sir Charles demanded that the
tribunal pronounce illegal the seizures
made by the United States in Boring sea.
Senator Morgan-If the seizures can be
justified on other principles than those
advanced at the hearing of the case. is it
not open to the United States to raise
-themP
Sir Charles Russell-No. The United
etates seized ships on certain grounds. and
the judge punished them In accordance
herewith. A great nation cannot shift
and change her position. Moreover, the
reasons now advanced. even if admitted,
do not justify the filming and impr;soning
OF the sailors.
