'tat'stics Recently Published Arc
Somewhat Disquietinu.


The newly published criminal stats,
les OF the German empire are not
pleasant reading. All along the line
they show an increase in crime over
he previous year, which cannot alto
ether be accounted for by the natural
Increase of population. The total num-
Der of convictions reached 1917 300, or
21,5o3 more than last year. In the
Hategories ff ordinary theft and rob-
berry with violence the Increase is very
marked, probably owing to the want
faused by general trade depression. A
remarkable increase is also observable
in offenses against officials and against
public orders. Probably the largest in.
crease of all is found in crimes where
bodily injury is inflicted This last
category has risen from $4,000 to 9S,'
900. The number of offenSes agalns;
morality steadily rises in accordance
with the experience of former years.
This was notably the case -Tith rape
and crimes committed against chill
dren. These have risen from AGO to
5,152 and from 1874 to Ais reslec,

Newspaper Carriers Scheme.

The paper boys of Ottawa have entered
into an agreement calculated to make
people pay for their paper or go without
the news, relates the Herald. The car
riers say there is a class of men who
make a practice of taking one paper for
a time without paying for it and then
switching to another. There are also
many people who pay promptly while TAX
ing the paper. but If they stop, the col
lector must come again and again TO col
lect the smallest back bills. The agree
ment is between the circulators of the
Republic, Herald, Kansas City Star. Jour
nal and World, the Topeka Capital and
the St Louis papers. Each carrier is to
furnish every other carrier with a list
of his delinquents who have refused to
paw or who have failed 10 pay after
several attempts at collection. New car
riers will be furnished these lists. and
the only way a delinquent can be certain
of getting the news without interruption
is to print a paper himself. The carriers
