CROOK? YES! NOT Thief! SAYS Hills

NEW YORK, Nov. 25.--Jim Lllls
as he is known throughout the length
and breadth of the land, is a crook
at one time he was one of the
most successful crooks i'm the worId
He studied robbery, worked hard al
1t for many years, made himself an
expert at it, but came to grief over
and over again. He is now. at the
age of tifty-one, an old man, broken
in spirit, broken in health. Seven
long terms of Imprisonment in penal
institutions on both sides of the At.
lantic have convinced him that his
chosen profession is a poor one, and
now-he finished his last term only
two weeks ago-he has resolved to
lead an honest life.
Everybody will say an habitual
criminal like myself cannot reform, "
said Lillis,. the other day, 81 don't
believe a thief can reform. This is
my opinion formed after association
with thieves for forty years But a
crook can reform. There is a differ.
ence between thief and a crook.
The crook, ! say, can reform, if he
takes himself in time. would place
thirty year of age as the time when
the probabilities of reform are great
est. OF course, there are exceptions ;
I, for instance, expect to lead an
honest life though am past fifty.
The ordinary crook is saturated
with the idea of obtaining money
easily and spending it rapidly. If, be-
fore he is thirty, he sees the diff
culties he will always have to face
he can turn aside with a fair chance
of burying his past. But I wouldn't
give the average crook much for his
chance for reformation if he waits
until he reaches my age.
"ThieVes" and Crooks"
Il am not thief, although l have
stolen thousands of dollars. A thief
is a thief through natural instincts
Thieves are born, not made. A crook
is not thief by instinct, but by pro
fession. have devoted my time to
stealing, in the same manner as other
men devote their time to law, to bust
ness or to medicine. Stealing was my
profession. 1t was misdirected ener.
gy. Had ! devoted the same amount
of time and energy to law or medi-
cine, should have been a successful
lawyer or physician. There is, how.
ever, one great difference between my
profession and others. There can be
no lasting success in it. I am abso.
lutely convinced of this fact, and for
that reason have now dropped it.
mo, I am not going to reform. ]
am simply giving up the profession
