Another English lawyer, examining
a witness who said he found the pris-

asked, sternly: do you mean to say
that they had gone to bed with their
beds on?'

6oubtedly sign the treaty i'll behalf OF

ton to the treaty in Venezuela, owing
to the attempt of Crespo's enemies to
throw discredit on his administration.
Senior Andrae, by his work in Vene-
zuela during his visit, did much to
change public opinion, and is really
responsible for the hearty indorse-
ment it received later from the lead

that the treaty would provoke a rev.

WOMEN ONLY BIG CHILDREN.
Terrific Arrangement of the Sex by
Professor Lomb roso.


Professor Lombroso, the noted Ital-
ian criminologist, has brought down
on his head the vigorous condemnation
OF all women and many men by
recent illumination in which he fierceiy
attacks the softer sex. The professor
remarks are of course declared by his
friends to be merely the result Of
scientific observation. Everyday folks
may be inclined with a north side
matron who, after reading the article,
remarked quietly: Poor man; some
body must have Tilted him awfully!'
The professor says:
Women have many traits in COM
mon with children; their moral sense
is deficient; they are revengeful, jeal-
Gus, inclined to vengeance Of a refined
cruelty. In ordinary cases these re-
fects are neutraliZed by piety, mater
nifty, want of passion, sexual GOODNESS,
by weakness and undeyeloped intelli-
gence. But when morbid activity of
the physical centers intensifies the bad
qualities of women and induces them
to seek relief in evil deeds it is clear
that the inocuous semicriminal present
in the normal woman must be trans
formed into a born criminal more ter
rible than in any man. What terrific
criminals would children be if they
| had strong passions, muscular strength
and sufficient intelligence. And wom-
en- are big children; their evil tenden-
! cieS are more numerous and more
varied than mems, but generally re-
main latent. When they are awaken
ed and. excited, they produce results
! proportionally greater.
Most often the hatreds and venge-
ances of women are of complicated Or
! igin. Every check in the struggle for
! life produces hatred of somebody in
them and frequently the hatred ends
in crime. A disappointment turns to
hate for the person VINO has caused
it, even involuntarily. An unsatisfied
| desire breeds resentment toward the
person representing the obstacle, even
though he may only have exercised a
personal right. Defeat results in a
detestatiOn Of the conqueror, which is
most violent in cases where the de-
featd ones own incapacity has been
the cause of his overthrow All these
are but slower forms of the same pas
sion which causes children to admin
lister a shower of blows on any object
against which they have knocked then
heads, and they prove an inferior ply,
steal development. common not only
to children, but also to the lower
animals
