Cigarette Smoking and Crime.


b. George Torrance, Supt of the Ill
nois Reformatory.
On the first day OF the month we
had 27S boys between the ages OF 10
and Is. or SO OF this number with
the average age OF IL, 28 we're Gig
arctic smokers; OF 1873 of them with
the average age OF IA, l25 were Gig
arctic smokers; 80 were Is years OF
age, Of whom 70 were cigarette
smokers.
This demonstrates that 90 percent
of the whole number were in the
habit OF smoking cigarettes at the
time they committed the crimes
for which they we're sent to the re-
formatory; but even more astonish-
ing ia the fact that 85 percent had
become 50 addicted to their use as
to ba classed at the time as "cg-
arctic fiends."
My statement that the cigarette is
working much more injury to the
yo1ng than intoxicating liquors may
be challenged, but repeat it, feel
ing confidence of its correctness.
To emphasize it l will say tenfold
more injury. II the application
we're made to the adult, or the
young man over Is, it would not be
true, but am speaking OF the young
boy-the boy under l0-not yet
a vagrant or criminal. But a small
+, percent of the boys under Is have
yet used intoxicating liquors; not
16 percent OF those we get to the
extent that it has worked them
| serious harm. The use OF intoxicat-
ing liquor is to be condemned; it
destroys manhood, destroys homes,
beggars wives and children and fills
tails, penitentiaries and reformator-
| les, but not to one tenth the extent
OF the cigarette does 1t start the
boy from 10 to 10 on the way to be-
come criminal.-Public Opinion,

Wife,
At the Union Mill, Kohala, Kauhi
Kicks and Beats His Wife and
Unborn Child to Deeth-
The Murderer Ar
rested.

Last Sunday evening, June 25tb,
at Kohala, native man named
Kouhi, a luna OF gang OF Japanese
laborers in the employ OF the Union
Mill, most brutally beat his wife,
named Keahi. On his return that
evening from the Japanese quarters
his wife noticed him to be under the
influence OF liquor, saki. Knowing
his nature aud temperament while
in euch condition, she went to the
house OF .neighbor close by Not
finding his wife at home. he went in
quest Of her and inquired at the
neighbours, and was told that she was
there.
When he had found her, he i'm
medistely commenced to beat her
again, but they we're separated.
After those who had parted them
had left, he again began to beat her,
this time with spade and also
kicked her, fiually killing her. She
was at'the time encients.
After the killing, n doctor was
summoned to examine her, and he
gave his opinion that she died from
the kicks which also caused the
death OF the unborn child. The
brute is now in the lookup awaiting
bis trial. A coroners jury was held
last Tuesday, but the verdict is not
forwarded. The murderer is a man
we'll thought of by his employers.

Someone may like to know why
the abbreviation No. is used for NUM-
Der, although that word has no 20"

of the word numero. Numero is the

numerous.
