All criminologists agree that indi-
rect suggestion is one of the surest
ways of melting TO crime; and an emf
nent French writer has published n
volume on the "Contagion of Murder, ''
in which he traces cases of homicidal
mania induced by pictures of assassi-
nation. The regular reader of many
modern newspapers might imagine that
the wCIlh is much worse than it used
TO be. This would be mistake. The
difference is not only that the newspa-
pers eXaggeratc, and sometimes invent
details of crime. but that the facilities
for collecting news are SO much bet
Ter than formerly that everything is
reported. There is no part of the news
papers of the day which can be more
protitably skipped than the detailed
narratives of crime; and newspapers
which make speciality Of the evil
there is In the world should not be tdl,.
en- into any home.

CASHIER OLA BANK MURDERED
Struck Down and His Throat Cut While
Fighting to Protect His Treasure.

Fighting To frOtcCt HIS treasure.
Somersworth, N. H., April 16.-While
resisting the entry of two desperate
and determined robbers, and during Il
heroic struggle to protect $4,000 or
more In money and securities In the
compartments of the open vault of the
Great Falls National Bank of SOmers-
worth, this afternoon, Cashier Joseph
A. Stickney was struck down and bru-
tally murdered near the desk which he
had occupied for years. After killing
Stickney, the murderers rnnsacked the
vault and fed with the cash, with
the exception of few gold pieces. As
near as can be estimated, $1,000 was
taken. but 1t Is possible that the loss
will considerably exceed this sum, as
none but the dead cashier knew the eX-
act amount that was In the instit,l-
tion at the time.
The robbers, after knocking Stickney
down with a blackjack, cut his throat,
The most remarkable feature of the
robbery is that 100000 in bonds of
the United States, which were kept in
one of the drawers of the big vault and
which the robbers examined hastily
were not taken. Neither was any of
the negotiable paper and securities of
the bank-in fact, nothing is missing
except the cash.
No one was aware that there was
anything wrong at the bank until
nearly . o'clock, or an hour after the
murderous work was done. The perpe-
traitors had ample time to escape. and
this evening scores of shcriffs, mar
shnlS, police and citizens are securing
this section of the State and the ad-
joining State of Maine, which, from
this city. is just across the Salmon
Falls river. The men made their visit
to the bank at the busiest time of the
day in the locality where the bank Is
situated, and so completely and thor.
oughly did they accomplish their rob
berry that only an uncertain clue and n
very mcager description of the terrible
deed can be obtained. Stickncy had
died fighting desperately.
The first clue that the officers found
was from persons who reported seeing
n man hurrying up the hill, carrying n
bag heavily weighted over his shoul
der lie thew the bag behind stone
wall. changed some of his clothes, and
finally got into the buggy driven by an
other man, Other persons reported see
ing the buggy, and in West Rochester
IA horse and buggy was seen headed fol
Salmon Falls river which forms the
Maine State boundary. This outfit has
mysteriously disappeared, despite the
fact that the whole section hereabouts
is being searched tonight.
