CONCERNING CRIMINALS.
Environment Rather Than Heredity
Creates Lawbreakers.

Contrary to popular fallacy. says
writer in Van Nordens, there are few
born criminals Our so called criminal
population is largely the result Of ell.
vironment, which includes not only
material surroundings. the physical
and mental effects Of poverty and dis.
ease, but 1t also reflects the idea of u
peremptory chastsement which runs
through all criminal codes. Seeing that
the law, which he Is taught represents
civic morality, resorts to immediate
vengeance and application oe brutal
punishment. the person whose mind
has been warped by sense Of real or
fancied injustice often accepts the
laws standard rs his own and pro.
ceeds to execute 1t on his own hook.
Henry NJ. Boies In his Science of
PenolOgy" estimates that In the United
criminals at large as are confined in
prisons. AS the average number Of
prisoners is about $4,000. this would
superfcially mean that not less than
100000 criminals constantly manage to
keep out Of prison.
DR.. s. A. Knopf one Of the delegates
Of the United States to the international
prison conference and one Of the most
eminent authorities in this country on
tuberculosis, says:
"In some Of our prisons In the Unit.
ed States 80 per cent Of the prisoners
die Of tuberculosis. The chief cause
Of this large number Of deaths Is the
lack Of air and light Of sufficient ven.
tiation In the cells and shops. poor
diet overwork. mental depression and,
finally, that which Is Of not least i'm.
portance, living with those who have
prrdispOsition to tuberculosis with.
out any measure being taken to pre-.
vent the spread Of the bacillus Of tn.
berculosis from expectora ton upon the
walls. the floors and the corridors Of
the prison. "-Chicago Tribune.

essary buoyancy to the apparatus and
to avoid injury to the battenS from
short circuiting. which would result II
two battens came into contact. At
each end Of these threading chains Is
a chain bride. to which the hauling
hawser is shackled. The hawser at
each end passes through fair leader
block, which is shackled to a position
chain and so Is taken to steam
winch. One position chain passes right
round the ship near the bow and the
other near the stern. while the hauling
hawsers are fore and aft on the ships
side
The mat itself has a leading batten
without magnet at either end and
six ordinary battens, each fitted with
two magnets and set Of brushes be-
tween. In the mat there are also two
dumb battens. which are Incorporated
to adjust the buoyancy. 1t will be oh.
served that the leading battens have
each two large brushes set square and
in way Of the magnets upon the other
battens. These brushes clean those
parts Of the ship which would other
wise be untouched by the brushes Of
the central battens and also clear
path for the magnets. On the central
battens the brushes are set diagonal
ly. one half being skewed to the right
and the other half to the left. In this
manner any tendency on the part Of
the mat to run crooked Is counter
acted.
The scrubber requires the attention
Of only two or three men to work 1t.
and 1t carries out its task quickly and
thoroughly. An $4,000 ton battleship

ELECTRIC SCRUBBERS.
Device For Cleaning Ships Bottoms
Without Drydoeking.

The electric scrubblng mat is n de.
vice invented to clean a ships fouled
bottom without the necessity Of dock
ing. The principle Of the appliance IS
very simple. 1t is in effect flexible
hogging brush. which Is dragged up
and down under the hull Of the ship
by ropes. BY the use Of electricity the
brush Is made to cling to the ships
side like magnet. The mat" as the
group Of brushes Is called, comprises
series Of battens carrying the brushes
and magnets. Only half Of the mat Is
shown in the accompanying illustration.
These battens are threaded at either end
on chains and separated from one an.
other by cork disks. also threaded on
the chains. to assist in giving the nee.

Automatic Saw Sharpener.

One of the most ingenious pieces OF
machinery Of modern invention is the
saw sharpener, which not only rapidly
and accurately sharpens circular saws
Of varying diameters and pitch, but
does it automatically. The saw to be
ground Is keyed to a horizontal shaft
which is slowly revolved. bringing
each tooth in turn under the emery
wheel This emery wheel has two mo.
tiOns. one a circular motion and the
other oscillating motion. which enable
the grinder to cut one edge OF the
tooth and then the other. This Is &C.
complished by most ingenious sys.
TEN Of levers and cams. One Of these
levers has a turn buckle by means Of
which any desired pitch can be given
the teeth. The emery wheel can be
raised or lowered to suit the diameter
Of the saw. The operation of this de.
vice is so simple that saw can be
keyed to the shaft, adjusted and the
machine started in remarkably short
time, and when once in operation no
attention whatever Is necessary.

AN IMPROVED PL0W.
Implement For Turning Surface Soil

The pillow which we illustrate here.

Is turned over on to the first layer.
In this way seeds and weeds are COM
