Have Done More to Suppress Crime
Than Any Other Agency.
New Orleans Times-Democrat: 81 see
some fellow is going to start a paper
that won't print any reports of crime"
said an old detective. He thinks such
news is immoral and harmful to the
public, and if he was in my line of
business I dare say he would change
his mind. The old-time professional
crooks who went in for big game have
ceased almost entirely to operate, and
it is very seldom that one hears of a
great bank robbery, burglary on a
large scale or a confidence game in
volving more than few hundred dol
lars. In my opinion this is due en-
tirely to the newspapers. When a big
crime is committed it gets wide pub
licity, descriptions Of suspects are cir
culated all over the country and the
public generally is put on the alert.
This greatly increases the chances OF
catching the criminals, and has made
such jobs so dangerous that, as 1 said
before, they have been practically aban-
doned. The newspapers have undoubt-
eddy broken up 'bunko' and other dan
gerous confidence games that used to
gather in thousands of victims every
year. They did it by exposing them
SO thoroughly that at last it became
next to impossible to find sucker
who wasn't posted in the scheme from
top to bottom. Not long ago l was
talking to chap who used to be in
the green goods business in New Jer-
sey. He cursed the newspapers very
bitterly and declared they had taken
the bread out Of his mouth, to say
nothing of the Perfecto cigars and two
bit whisky he formerly put into it.

man would cordially indorse the new
journal without any criminal items.

regarded such news as highly damag-

THE NoL,sH~FLowER GARDEN
Closely Connected with tho Changes In
National Charaatae

Closely Connected with tho Changes In
National Character.
The fluctuations and history of the
taste for flower gardening in England
are more closely connected with the
changes in national character than
most of the decorative and creative
arts, says the Spectator. There is clear
evidence that when in the days Of Elk
abeth and James I. every one was
building fine houses and "all England
was stone-cutter's yard" flowers were
sought for beauty's sake-lowers
which, as Gerarde quantity says Of the
sweet-william, though not good for
the belly, were meet to deck the breast
Of beauty" The building Of the more
purely renaissance houses in the days
of Charles I. and Charles II. gave us
much that was best in the Italian gar
dens-terraces and balustrades Of per-
feet proportions, good statues, exqui-
site gates, fine old lead work. ThiS
is a great Inheritance, and the work
still remains, and If some complain of
them as of the architecture of st.
Peters, that it is too rational, far too
earthly" others will never cease to
enjoy the intellectual pleasure of see
ing these fine forms, the terraces, the
tripods and the sundials, and the
winged horses and tritons by the lakes,
which we borrowed from Italian
brains. But the Italian garden is not
flower garden. The only thing
which we borrowed from them on and
under which flowers grow is the per-
COLA. Their gardens meant shade,
level walks in a country which was all
hills water and marble work, adorned
with statues. Even the Spanish gar
dens Of the Alcazar, though full of
orange and citron, have few flowers.
We now add to this the brilliant car
pet bedding in the formal parts, and
the modern wilderness" with the in
termediate herbaceous garden. The
latter has not in the least killed the
admiration for the outdoor architec-
tural arts. At the present moment
wrought iron gates, ratings, statues of
bronze, vases of lead and marble, are
being imported from the ancient cha
teaus Of France and the villas Of Italy
into England to be sold to owners of
gardens, old and new.

Don,t Worry the Composer.
A musical organization, intending to
give performance Of an orator!o, be-
gan to be alarmed about the probable
cost Of the production.
Accordingly, the director Of the cho-
rus said to the leader Of the orchestra,
who was a professional musician:
We've got to keep down our expens-
es, and thought I might get you to
leave out the trombones. You know,
they have only four measures in the
entire oratorio, and If we leave them
out we can save at least SIS, and no
one will be any the WISER"
The leader Of the orchestra was ex-
tren.ely shocked. Assuming tragic
attitude, he said:
'That would be an insult to the conf
poser!' y
The chorus director reflected mo-
ment, and then said, cheerfully:

that the kaiser, on his annual trip on
the Hohenzollern to the Norwegian
fiords, Is In the habit of conducting di-
vine service every Sunday morning.
He usually reads a short liturgy and
follows the prayers with a sermon. In
his recent trip, the officers of the Ho-
henzollern noticed that sailor during
divine service had fallen fast asleep.
After the service the captain called the
sailor before him, and gave him a
sound rating and sentenced him to
two days arrest. The captain after
wards reported! the incident of the
sleeping sailor and the punishment in
flicted upon him.
"Was he on the watch the night be-
fore?" asked the kaiser

Kaiser Pleased with a Boys Tenac;t,

AaAser creased with lsoy's Tenacity.
The German kaiser had the other day
a curious adventure with one of his
numerous godchildren. Every seventh
boy in the same family, if the parents
are in humble circumstances, is named
after and educated at the expense of
the kaiser. On the kaiser's arrival at
Remscheid, one of these godchildren
was deputed to offer him a bouquet.
The small boy, however, at the last
minute utterly refused to part with the
flowers. The kaiser, however, only
laughed and patted him on the head,
and said, Eyes, when a German once
lays his hands on anything he does not
readily give it up" and ordered fifty
marks to be given to the obstinate
youngster.

PEOPLE who visit Dickinson are
surprised at the quantities of wool
that are coming in for sale. Lieut..
Gov. Devine, who was here this
week, was amazed to see the great
number of four-horse teams pull
ing in with their big loads of wool
crowding up to the platforms to
get a chance to unload. When
told that the Dickinson woods
sold at " cts. and better per
pound and that there was being
marketed this season from 7oo,-
600 to 300. 1000 pounds, Mr.. Devine
was still more surprised. This"
he said, "means a sum of money
for wool, at the lowest figures, of
$4,000" Later in the day MI.
Devine visited the Dickinson Fire
& Press Brick Works, where he
found IS men employed in the
manufacture of brick-the finest
pressed brick this side of St. Louis.
