"cRuwE DOESN'T PAY"

That crime doesn't pay Is the as
sertion of BILLY" Pinkerton, in his
address to the annual convention of
police chiefs, held at jamestown, Va.
Mr.. Pinkerton backs up his assertion
with the figures. In this address he
dealt entirely with the "hold-up" men.
or these he says two-thirdS We're
killed while operating. resisting ar
rest, or lynched by posses, while nearly
all those who escaped death We're cap
tured and sentenced to Ions; terms or
driven to exile. The printed copy Of
his address is profusely Illustrated
with portraits of notorious hold-up
men, most OF whom died with their
boots on. A few notable examples of
those who after long imprisonment
given. Prominent among these is the
case of Sherman w. Norris alias
whom Governor Shaw paroled at Judge
Hubbard's request.
The faces of the criminals adhere
generally TO a type. There is almost
invariably the heavy jaw and the sug-
gestion of brutality and Ignorance.
With few exceptions the pictures of
"hold-up" m IN Furnished us by Billy
Pinkerton, arr nen of strong pas
sion and weak Intelligence.
And this $ true of the criminal in
general. The man who selects crime
as a calling is not an intelligent and
reasoning person. So many safe and
respectable avenues OF profitable en-
ployment are open TO him that when
ne deliberately turns to crime for a
livelihood he proves himself q fool
and the average criminal furnishes
further proof of lack of intelligence
In that he IS bungler, and leaves a
plain trail.
Crime doesn't pay. 1t is the poorest
vocation on earth. Pinkerton says no
crime pays and that 95 per cent of
criminal, the sport, usually dies the
want. And that first cousin of the
criminal the sport. usually does the
same way an object of charity with
out friends and without hope.

JUST TO START THINGS.
(Winnebago County Republican.

(Winnebago County RepuDllcan.)
1t is perhaps a little early in the
season for a corn husking story to
blossom, but the Republican has one
which is absolutely true, because How
ard Beadle told it, that will serve as a
PAGER for at least few OF the dis
ROBBERS of King Corn. 1t is an average
of IS bushels by one man and a drive
Of SO miles per day thrown in. The
corn was picked on the G. w. Beadle
farm in Ellington township by Heye-
go brothers who reside near Ventura.
These gentlemen bought ten acres of
corn at Mr. Beadle's sale and one week
ago last Monday morning at ABOUT sun
rise three of them with a like number
of teams appeared on the scene ready
to begin husking. They had three 30
inch boxes and by ten o'clock they had
their loads filled and shortly after
were homeward bound Mr.. Beadle no.
ticed the first team drive to water with
it's heaping load and supposed that
the other brothers had helped pick IT,
but was surprised to find the othef
fellows equally we'll loaded The per-
Torrance was repeated and before TOUR
o'clock ten acres of corn had been
picked with total yield of $50 BUSH
els. After Mondays stunt Howard
took occasion to watch the huskers
and reports the ears of corn flying so
fast that one could scarcely count
them. One of the brothers is reputed
to be one of the swiftest corn plckers
in the state and judging from the
amount Of corn gathered by the trio
his brothers must be just little better
than he. Other corn husking stories
will follow, but if the example set by
the Republican, that of confning ones
self to the absolute truth. is adhered
TO- Heyego brothers will wear the belt
for a considerable time at least.

THE ONLY oELwElN.
(Oelwein Rcgister.)

Some time ago The Register stated
that Oelwen is the only place OF that
name in Uncle Sans dominions. and
several have expressed doubt as to
the matter. Some one said that there
Is a whistling station or something OF
the sort down in the Texas panhandle
bearing the name of Oolwein. That
may be true. but by reference to the
list of postoffices in the American re-
public ii is learned that C,elWein is the
only pebble on the postal beach - IN
other words there is no other postof-
flee named Oelwein, so that letter
written in South Africa, Siberia, Ice
land or any other land, and addressed
"Oelwein, u. S. A." will reach this
city without any peradventure.

CAUSES OF FIRES

A bulletin of instructions issued by
the state fire marshal to mayors,
fire chiefs and town clerks, whose
duty it is to report fires, contains
the following matter of general in
terest:
"Carelessness" cannot be accepted
as the cause OF q ire for the reason
that the majority OF all fires are
from the carelessness of some one.
All fires, except those started by the
burning of an adjacent building or
by an incendiary, result from either
carelessness or ignorance.
CHIMNEY SCOT burning" is the la
bel for fires from a dirty chimney
burning out. This is very common
accident, but 1t seldom fires a house
that has good roof, and many
housewives know that a handful oil
salt on the fire below it will extin-
guish burning SCOT.
'Defective fiue' is the most com
mon fire cause. The word ''fiue" in
dicates the whole avenue OF escape
from the fire to the outside air. 1t
is the stovepipe and chimney taken
together.
"Overheated stove" is not salts

fire. The reporter should say if the

eeeding In Court.
Mary l.. kinzer instituted an all
mony proceeding In common pleas
court yesterday against her husband
William p. Kinzer, and also names
the Citizens Building q Loan com
pany as defendant.
According to the allegations OF the
petition, the marriage which was only
solemnized on the 10th day Of June,
1906, in the city OF GAINESVILLE, n
full account OF which was pub
lished in the newspapers at the time,
has not proven agreeable. The wife
says her husband has failed and re-
fused to provide her the necessaries
OF life ever since their marriage and
that she is now destitute OF clothing.
She declares he had been guilty Of
extreme cruelty and says ever since
n short time after their marriage he
has used abusive language toward
her and refers to several occasions
when he beat her and threatened her
life. She objects to correspondence
which he has had with marriage brok-
ers or matrimonial agencies and other
women stating that he would torment
and annoy her with the correspond
ence.
She claims at the time of her mar
riage TO the defendant she owned a
property In GAINESVILLE which came
from her deceased husband and that
her present husband insisted, tor
mented and annoyed her until she
converted the premises into money.

count to her for the money loaned
