SOME INTERESTING POST OFFICE


STATISTICS.
Much amusing, but otherwise
worthless. information is thrust
on the public annually by So
called scientists, but not until
recently has anyone presumed to
predict mans vocation by the
length of his legs and feet and the
color of his hair. Lombroso never
got lower than the ears. DIR. Will
liam Littleton Robins, of Washing
ton, however, has written pamph-
let on "Post Office Criminals, /"
taking his data from the records
of the chief post Office inspector,
in which the leg theory is intro
duced. In resume of the pamph-
let, the Saltwater Gazette says:
Many other interesting things
about post Office criminals are dis
closed by the little booklet. It
appears that while the ordinary
criminal is shorter and lighter
than the average man, the post
Office specialist in crime is of
about the same height and weight
as other men. The majority of
the post Office criminals are bru-
nettes, and, paradoxical as it may
seem, "a per cent have light eyes.
From the comparison of statis-
tics prepared from Ill post Office
criminals, 1000 prisoners of San
Quentin prison, California, and
the average of Amherst college
students, it appears that in stature,
length of foot and width of head,
the measurements of the post
Office criminals approach nearer to
those of the Amherst students than
to those Of the California prisoners.
This would seem to indicate that
post Office criminals are superior
to criminals in general in intelli-
gence.

ONE ARREST IN EIGHT YEARS.

ONE ARREST IN EIGHT YEARS.
Patrolman j. Ell. Dean of Anso-
MIA, Conn.,, has the most peaceful
record of any New England police
officer extant. He has been on the
force eight years and in that time
has made one arrest. Dean was
one of ten appointed eight years
ago. Since then he has worn his
uniform once, and that at Ger
man ball; made one arrest, en-
ployed a substitute. to go his
rounds, and worked steadily at his
trade in the brass works.
Deans record was looked up.
Little was found against him. He
could be accused of nothing Sc
rious. except that he made but one
arrest, and that OF a fellow worker,
Andrew Smith, who stole copper
scrap in the brass works alongside
Dean. Smith jumped his 500
bail, but Dean collected the $3.50
fee to which he was entitled for
arrest.
