No Gentlemen Crooks,

DR.. Bertillon, the French expert on
criminal mensuration, has dlscredited
one Of the pet ideas Of the novelists and
playwrights. The gentleman criminal,
he says, does not exist In real life;
Arsene Lupin and Raffies are inven-
tions and nothing more No matter
how extensively they may dress or
live there is always something which
betrays the professional crooks to the
trained observer. Crooks. he says. are
mostly specialists. And not only do
they find 1t impossible to pass as gen.
tlemen, but gentlemen for the most
part would find 1t exceedingly diff
cult TO make living as crooks. So
1t seems that even II a gentleman has
all the will in the world to be a crook,
or a crook to be gentleman. early
training will prove stronger than desire
and the two things cannot be made to
mix.-New York Sun.
