HOW THIEF TRAINERS WORK.
Many Schools For the Teaching Of
Crime Exist.


Crime Exist.
Fagin, Charles Dickens's malicious,
cruel and cunning old thief trainer in
oliver Twist" has HIS counterpart
in the world of crime to-day, although
It is not long, as a rule, before he is
laid by the heels by Scotland Yard,
and sent where he can no longer teach
depravity to Juvenile minds, at any
rate for a while 1t is astonishing,
however, says "TitBits," how many
schools for the teaching Of crime ex-
list in London and other large towns,
although the police are persistent in
their efforts 10 check the evil
In spite of laws and philanthropy
there will always be street arabs and
young hooligans, whose upbrinJing
and surroundings make them easy vic
tins to the temptings Of the modern
Fagin. These men, by Offering food,
lodgings, and pocket money to the
boys, have no difficulty in getting as
many as they want to act as pick
pockets and burglars, and soon trans
form them into "Artful Dodgers" by
little training.
The burglar Of today finds boy
most useful in Cracking a crib" The
boy can squeeze through openings
and spaces which you'd be impossible
to a full grown man; he is usually
more nimble, quicker and more silent
during a job than a man partner; and,
moreover, by allowing the boy to en-
ter a house and do the actual robbing,
the craftsman has a good chance of
escape in the case Of an alarm being
raised, we'll knowing that If the boy
is caught his youth will save him from
severe punishment.
A boy soon acquires the necessary
nerve for the business, and quickly
begins to take a pride In his achieve
ments. He is Systematically taught
his craft, how to use the scientific APP
planes and tools Of the safe breaker
and how to effect an entry into the
most inaccessible Of buildings. The
fact that youthful burglars have been
caught fully equipped with up-to-date
tools and appliances proves that they
must have been taught their business
by some one.
1t is the same with the pocket pick
ing business. The same methods are
adopted, the same devices used, and
the same scheme Of passing and COY
ering" adopted in the majority Of cas-
es. These methods are old; they vary
occasionally, but the original methods
never die out, and are handed down
from generation to generation. 1t is
obvious, therefore, when the police
see these hoary old methods of picking
q pocket employed by youngsters OF
ten. that the children must have been
taught and trained systematically
very often children Of tender years
are much cleverer at the business thai
men and women.

British Columbia.

British Columbia is, vast enough
to swallow up many times its pres
ent population without the slightest
strain on its resources. The island
from which Vancouver takes its
name, originally called Nootka. was
discovered early in the sixteenth
century, but it was not until 1892
that Captain George Vancouver of
the British navy first sailed COM
pletely around the island, to which
he gave his name. After the Amer
lean boundary dispute the island
was handed over forever to Britain
by the Oregon treaty of 1916 and
leased to the Hudson Bay company
from that year until 1919. 1t was
made separate British colony in
1868, but two years later became
part Of Columbia. 1t is an ideal
white mans land, for the climate
closely resembles that of the Brit
ish isles, except that Britisher can
rely upon getting even more plen-
tiful rainfall-London Chronicle.
