CRIMINoLoGY.
Some Men Are Born to Do Evil Acts.

Some Men Are Born to DO EVIL ActS London Chronicle.
 Arf criminals born or made? The Con- gross of Criminal Anthropology now sit ting at Amsterdam discussed the ques-
 tion yesterday. Differences of opinion threatened at one stage to become acute, until Signor Ferri of Rome, restored harmony by a compromise. Some men are born criminals. But man with criminal stigma does not always become a criminal; his surroundings and ms general mode of life have to cooperate. This statement is as cautious as 1t is correct and expresses, we imagine. the last word of philosophic criminology. We and a more reputable class of persons, though indeed their calling also has on high philosophic authority been pro nounced "a kind of madness;" we mean the class of poets. Now, as every school boy knows "a poet is born, not made" But we know also that there are mute inglorious Miltons." All poets are born; but not all born poets come to maturity of song. Surroundings and general mode of life must cooperate Matthew Ar mold. if we remember alright, laid 1t down in one of his letters-somewhat dis putably. we think-that leisure and bankers balance were among these CO., operating Inducements to song. But. doubt that criminal instincts, like poetic and all other instincts, may be either stimulated or discouraged by other in- fluences. And this is the side of the mat ter which 1t is the most useful for States to remember. There is indeed an heroic school of anthropologists which breaches the doctrine of the sterilization of the degenerate;" but for immediately prac- ticable purposes. "the reformation of the criminal and ''the prevention of crime" are better formulas. They should not be forgotten even in the case of criminal anarchism.

SMALL RISK IN MAIL.
Losses Large, But Small When Com
 parisons Are Made.

Chicago Record-Herald.
 When the chief Inspector of the Post office Department admits that complaints have been received during the year con, cernifig 52,30S letters, of which 4l,0o6 neid inclosures, and also concerning 4''fyf packages, the figures are large ehoush te make the reader feel that there are risks in the mails though he, himself has never suffered loss. But figures that appear absolutely large often dWlnaie and shrivel when they are sub)ected 70 a comparison. and that is true m thls instance, for the Government which re- ceived the complaints handles every year some 5000, ,000, 900 pieces of postal matter.
 Supposing also that the 4,058 letters which held inclosures all went wrong, tne percentage of risk in the inclosure prac- tice would still remain inn1ltesimaliy small The Government issues yearly more than 33.000,00O money orders, when are generally sent through the maIls. and are so rarely tampered with upon this showing that complainant might feel that he had all the bad luck going. The probabilities are that for the rest or his life he would never expeTience all an other difficulty of the kind and never meet another person who had.
 Considering the bulk of the business the mails are interfered with So seldom that the letter which is said to have been sent through it and never been received may be regarded primarily as a myth, and the letter which is said not to have been re- ceived though 1t has certainly been sent, may be held 70 nave EOt tncFe.-s Ne know that this reflects upon a very com mon form of apology for seeming neglect. discourtesy and indolence, but the figures do not lie. They simply give rise to the painful suspicion that there is lack Of veracity in another quarter when the ex- plantations are, over and the mails are accused.
 There is, however, more than one saw ing clause in the statistics. Sixteen hun dred and thirty-five of the 77,000 postof- fees in the United States were robbed last year and 642 were destroyed by fire Seyenty-one postal cars were wrecked thirty-seven stage coaches were held up three mail wagons were footed, b56 mai pouches were stolen. I4S were cut: ls street and rural letter boxes were rined lies with a hard, unflinchfng counten' ance and a possible refuge also for tho inventors of black ores.. Though 1t D. not sufficient to restore confidence. fl should serve excellently well for say ing the face"
 The immunity from loss in Uncle Sam'i postal business Is truly marvellous.

A Skin Sewing Machine.

A sewing machine for the skin is re- cent French notion. It was exhibited by Dr. Paul Michel at the late Congress of medicine and Is of course intended for the use of surgeons. The instrument is quite small, easily held in the hands and has received the Barber prize of the Faculte de Medicine. In future a surgeon need not slowly stitch the edges of a wound. With the left hand he keeps the two lips together. and with the right he fastens it by means of little clasps or "agrafas" of nokle having points which penetrate only the epidermis and are not painful.
