and midnight burglaries that have OF
late occurred have been perpetrated by
paroled or pardoned prisoners. 1t
makes the more serious charge, based
upon evidence, that "often inmates of
the Pontiac prison are paroled on ae-
count of inadequate facilities to ac-
commodate such numbers as are sent
there" Other statements by the grand
jury would seem to indicate a lack OF
ability on the part of the parole officers

reformation. THE professional crimi-
nal," the report says, is crafty and
calculating. When his sentence Is in
determinate he will naturally obey the
prison rules, and seek by meek conduct
to win the appreciation of the prison
officials. Evidence shows that the pa
rolled prisoners from Pontiac prison
generally come out more vicious, more
depraved, and more hardened than
when they entered it. Many of these
paroled boys from this prison, now
nearing the age of manhood, are again
indicted in bills presented you for fresh

INDETERMINATE SENTENCES.

Judge Gibbons reported decision
that the indeterminate-s sentence law
of Illinois is unconstitutional is to be
reviewed by the Supreme court, and
friends of the law expect reversal of
the judgment Judge Gibbons holds
that the law invades the judicial func-
lions of the courts. The constitutional
provision that every man is entitled to
a trial by jury is construed by him to
mean that the judge should fix the
punishment On the other hand, friends
of the law go hopefully to the higher
court, knowing that like laws, wherev-
er tested, as they have been in New
York, Pennsylvania and Ohio, have
been pronounced constitutional. The
trouble in Illinois would seem to be
rather in the execution of the law
than in the law itself. A recent report
of the Cook county grand jury, while
expressing sympathy with all efforts
to reform the criminal, complains that
the operation of the parole law has in
creased rather than diminished crime
1t claims to have the concurrent tes-
timony of the chief of police. the in
spectors, and certain of the detectives

Japau is soon to enjoy the benefits Of
invention and trademark laws closely
resembling our own and those of the
European countries Article sixteen of
the new treaty of commerce and nayi-
cation is about to go into effect. This
has been made possible by negotiations
of a special character. The treaty as a
whole will not become operative until
1885, when the practically identical
conventions with other civilized lands
also take force. Like former Japanese
negotiations, the arrangements to this
end have been made with all the occi-
dental countries at the same time so
the date when our inventors and own
ers of trademarks and designs are de-
barred from competition with Japanese
who have produced similar devices will
be practically the same as the dates
fixed to keep out Europeans. All of a
sudden, then. Japan will raise up a
barrier against several varieties of for
eign goods which are now freely i'm
ported.

Belated figures of the 1894 census Of
Michigan show that Sc per cent. Of the
population Of the State is Michigan
born. Even in the cities more than
one-half the people were born in the
State. An interesting development Is
that the foreign born appear to enter
more readily into marital relations. OF
persons old enough to legally marry,
in 1000 native males 59S are married,
the proportion in other classes being:
In native females 613, in foreign-born
males $50, and In foreign-born females
718, The figures also show that there
is little congestion of the people in ten
ement houses even in the cities.
throughout the State there is an aver
age Of 4.69 persons to each dwelling.
This proportion rises to 4.SS in the cit
les and drops to 4.50 in the country
districts. The increase in dwellings
since 1850 has been: From 1850 to 1850,
10 33e from 1860 to 1870, S6,0S4 from
1870 to 1880, S4,47s; from 1880 to 1890,
1885, and from 1890 to 1894, 49,315.

A Manchester (England) photo
grapher shows the picture of a child in
which the face appears to be covered
with fine eruption, although the child
itself showed nothing of the kind at
the time the picture was taken. Three
days later, however, the eruption came
out just as shown in the picture, indi-
