GENIUS IN CRIMINAL LINES.
Scientific Burglary as Latest Phase of

Scientific burglary appears to be
the latest phase of our civilization"
says the London Telegraph. "A month

distracted from the safe. How this
was done was a mystery until fore

gave evidence at the Marlborough

safe had been burned away by a let of
oxyhydrogen flame. Whether the two
men charged with the crime were the
skilled operators remains, of course
to be seen and must not be preiudged
but whoever the criminals. the method
showed distinct application of
science to burglary which may rank
among the advances of the twentieth
century. 1t is suggested that the
cracksmen had first bought compress

on the supply of carburetted hydro
gen, which, with more or less bril-
lance, still Eliminates most of our

little light and no smell, at a tempera-
ture probably exceeding 1000 degrees
Fahrenheit. Thus, deposed the ex-
pert, in about an hour or an hour and
half they had burnt away so much of
the safe that the lock fell out. Here's
story as the bard would have said

their own gases next. The centerbit

defy any tool and, we understand, any
flame that the burglar can bring to

METAL REPoUssE WORK.
A fascinating and Profitable Occupa-
ton for Women.

Among the art crafts women have
little known until within COM
paratively few years, and one of the
latest to attract her is metal repousse
work. It is n fascinating as we'll as a
profitable occupation. The actual
cost of tools and materials is small,
and really artistic work is sure to
bring a good price.
Brass, copper and silver are the
metals generally used, but zinc, lead
and pewter serve some purposes ad.
mirably, and order work is often
executed in gold. Zinc is usually EN-.
ployed for the process of learning
as 1t is the cheapest and is easily
worked. Pewter and lead are less
desirable, as their softness makes
them difficult to manage.
In one method of executing repousse
work the metal is laid on a board and
the design traced by fine brush with
an inky preparation for the purpose
A number of nails of different sizes
are filed to various shapes. and with
these the design is hammered into
the metal. Most or the metals can be

more favorably with the American
men in weigh and height than the
Cuban women do with the Cuban men.
and adds: ct is due to the inferior
ity of the American women or the
superiority of the American men!
Have the admirable opportunities for
physical training and athletics AFFORD
ed our male students begun to show
the expected results by general IN
crease of weight and stature that mas
not yet been attained by our college
women? Can it be true that our
American women are beginning to
show the material cost of attempting
to build highly organized brain and
maintain their special physiological
functions at the same timer"
This question DR.. Sargent does not
answer satisfactorily. While the
American male student is twenty
pounds heavier than the Cuban male
teacher, the medium American female
student exceeds the medium female
Cuban teacher by 1875 pounds, which
is more than the average Cuban man
exceeds the average Cuban woman.
The difference between the medium
height of the American man and the
Cuban man is 3.4 inches, while the
difference between the medium height
of the American woman and the Gu
ban woman is 2.3 inches.
DR.. Sargent believes that the real
cause of the diminutive stature and
weight of the Cuban teachers of both
sexes is in the race, conditions, and
environment of the Cubans. An
cestry and conditions, DR.. Sargent be-
lieves, count more than tropical
climate in physical deterioration.
The South Sea Islanders of the Pacific
are among the tallest and best formed
people in the world, but they are pas
sionately fond Of swimming and gen.
eral exercise. The Cupans are not.
American men and women, as a
rule, take good deal of exercise
walk with ease and comfort Our
women, according to DR.. Sargent,
wear shoes ranging from 21a to 8,
and our men shoes ranging from %
10. The Cuban women at Cambridge
almost uniformly wore narrow, point
ed shoes, with high heels, numbering
in size from to 4, and the Cuban
men wore the same style of shoe
numbering in size from 3 to 6. DR..
Sargcnt's observations led him to be-
lieve that the Cubans are not so far
behind the Americans in point of
mental ability as they are in lack of
physical vigor and some moral aim
and purpose to strive for.

1t is not in the local development Of
the isthmus, however, that will come
the importance of the Tehuantepec
railroad. There Is already talk of sew

American and European ports to the
eastern terminus of the isthmus rail-
way, and there is no question that
when Pearson &c Son are sufficiently
advanced with their contract they
will possess influence to originate
a new freight and passenger line
which will be far superior to that of
Panama and will present tangible COM
petition to the all-rail transcontinental
haul for heavy freight in the United
States. 1t can be made the direct
route from western South America to
the United States and Europe, and in
going from New York to San Fran
cisco via the isthmus it is at least six
days shorter than by the Panama rail
road. The building OF the Nicaragua
canal will be a great stimulus to all
transcontinental traffic, and the
Tehuantepec route presents many ad.
vantages over any other in reaching
the Pacific end Of the proposed Ameri-

CUBAN TEACHERS.
Facts of Interest Relating to COM
parative Heights and Weights.

Last summer 1905 Cuban teachers
were in Cambridge. 1t was common
remark that they seemed to be in
ferior in size and stature to American
teachers and students. During the
first week of August 937 of the Cuban
teachers were weighed at the gym
nasium at Harvard university. OF
these 497 were men and 494 women,
and the reports as to height, weight,
and general physical status are sub
mited in report by DR.. Dudley Allen
Sargent, published in the Popular
Science Monthly.
Among the American male students
measured, for comparison with Cuban
teachers, the shortest was 64.7 inches
and the tallest 75.9 inches. Among
the Cuban male teachers the shortest
was $50 inches and the tallest 75.6
inches. So far as extremes are con-
cerned, It viii be seen that there IS
little difference in the two nation
alities, but the medium height of the
American male student is ST. inches,
while only 10 per cent. of the Cuban
male teachers attained this stature.
The medium height of the Cuban male
teachers was 64.3 inches, but this
height was surpassed by over 80 per
cent. of the American male students.
The height of the tallest American
female student was 71.3 inches, and
the shortest 53.2, while the tallest
Cuban female teacher was 6S.9 and
the shortest SAT- inches. The me-
dunn height of the American female
student is 62.6 inches, and the me-
dunn height OF the Cuban teacher sos.
Over so per cent. of the American
female students surpassed the stature
attained by so per cent. of the Cuban
female teachers. The medium weight
Of the American male student was
134.5 pounds, and of the Cuban male
teachers ia pounds. The medium
weight of the American female teach
ers was 144.6 pounds, and OF the Gu
ban 102 pounds. Eighty per cent. OF
the American female students sur
passed the medium weight of the Gu
ban female teachers.
The medium Cuban man, il was
found, is twelve pounds heavier than
the medium Cuban woman, while the
American woman is 1919 pounds light
er than the medium American man.
AS our American women have better
opportunities for growth and develop
ment than the Cuban women, DR.. Sar-

to the satisfaction of the most skeptical
that copper, in paying quantities, and
enough to make a big camp, will be
found. Should this surmise prove true,
the known coal measures in that same
locality would prove of the greatest
value, as the output from the coal mines
would reduce the output of the copper
mines to merchantable condition at
cost with which no other camp in the
state could compete.
