Jim Dunlap was arrested in Chicago as
ne was entering his apartments. He had
a little black bag with him, which. when
opened, was found to contain a full SCI
OF finely wrought burglars tools There
was also box in the bag containing S12S
IN silver. Jim made no kick about his
arrest. but went along quietly, and is
now awaiting Trial on a charge of hav-
ing burglar tools in his possession. Dun
lap was arrested because there have been
a dozen safe blowings in Chicago in the
past few months, and the character of
the work indicated that it had been done
by an old hand. He was known to be
IN Chicago, because when he left New
York he went there and opened a sa-
LOOM Have you any doubt that Jim Dun
lap had a hand in those Chicago safe
blowings? Anyway, it's perfectly clear
to a normal mind that a man with a
bag of burglars tools, especially when
1t happens TO be a man who has had for
" years experience as a craftsman is
a crook and not a man of good inten-
lions. That's the point / want TO make.
II tell you they don't reform, not a
one of them. If eighteen years in the
toughest prison in the country, and
friends and opportunities such as few ex-
convicts have, won't reform man. moth
ing will. Jim Dunlap had all of these
things, and yet the monkeys around at
his old tricks, when he's a gray-haired
old man, and sure to be nailed sooner or
later No, sir, there's no such thing as
reforming a crook"

The Erie Railroad has supplanted the
telegraph in its block signal tower with
the telephone. A school of instruction in
the new system has been going on for
some time at Port Jervis, and now the
towers are completely manned with tee-
nbone GENERATORS. The reason of the
change is said to be the attempted forma-
ton of a telegraphers' association among
the railroad operators.
