CRIMINAL CHARACTERISTICS

The mental and moral shortcom-
ings OF the criminal classes are gen.
orally accepted facts. AS class they
are physically defective. The British
Association for the advancement of
Science reported on the examination
of 5000 criminals and found them to be
about two inches shorter and II
pounds lighter than the average Eng
hshman. Baer, of Berlin, reporting
on the German criminal, gives much
the same results. Few reliable data
are to be found in American literature.
Hamilton Wey, reporting on 529 boys
at the Elmira Reformatory of an aver
age age. between 20 and 81 years,
gives an average height of 651s inches
and an average weight of 1873 pounds.
which is below that of college boys.
An investigation of height at the
Wisconsin State Prison shows that the
Wisconsin convict is 1.8 inches below
the average American height. The
1921 criminals reported are, at the
average of So years and months,
most markedly inferior to the average
freshman at our state university, and
is 2 inches shorter than the average
Harvard student He lacks 1.3 inches
of the height of the men and boys who
enlisted in the Civil War and is 8
inches inferior in height to the Fell
lows Of the Royal Society of England
and English professional men.
The murderer is we'll above the
average criminal in height, somewhat
below in weight, but leading in chest
measurement and expansion. The
thief is well above the average in
height and slightly below in weight.
Criminals through fraud; though most
often indoor workers, outweigh all
others, and have a good chest meas

SPENDS MILLIONS
JUST IN HAVING
A GOOD time
MRS. STOCKER IS A SPENDER
Believes in Turning Loose
The Coin

Los Angeles, Cal, January 17.-After
having spent approximately $1,000,000
within six months, Mrs Clara Bald
win Stocker, who already has received
100000 from the Lucky" Baldwin
estate and will soon get $1OOOO,OO0
more, arrived from Chicago in her $40,-
600 private car, which was sidetracked
at Arcadia.
She brought the first installment of
her heavy purchases, including $780,
900 worth of diamonds in a wonderful
variety of settings and $4,000 worth
of gold and silver ware She also has
a wardrobe which cost her about $780,
O00 Following by express are prized
articles of furniture, unique lamps and
other treasures. Another item in her
expenditures is a $4,000 yacht. Her
new automobiles cost her 100000.
Mrs Stocker believes, it appears,
that money is good only for the good
times one can have with it.
81 am going to have the very best
sort of good time" she said, for
what is money for if t is not to give
one access to real njoyment life?
have already started to have my good
time. I'm having it, and I'm going to
have still more of it. I'm going to have
all the good time that money will buy
me. Lavish in my purchases? But
lavish as it seems, I'm going to be
still more so, for I'm going to have a
really good time"
She takes pride in her car, palace
on wheels, built exactly as she wanted
it by the Pullman company. Her oily
in it is the broiler,
which doesn't seem to work just right
The car was delivered to her Sunday,
and Monday she left Chicago for this
city, accompanied by her husband,
Harry Randolph Stocker and Mr.. and
Mrs. L. Wilson of Chicago, intimate
friends.

Valuable Cargo

Savannah, Ga, January 1.-THE
first full cargo of steel rails to be ship
ped from Savannah to Australia will
leave within the next two weeks on
the German steamship Waelysung,
which reached port yesterday. Local
Shipping men predict that this will be

with this new and fertile territory.
There are 5000 tons of steel rails
in the shipment which the Waelsung
will carry and they are to be used in
the construction of a new and import
ant railway in Australia.
Two hundred cars will be necessary
for the transportation of the material
from the Birmingham district, where it
was produced. 1t has not left the fac

A part of the cargo will be dis

are owned by the United States Steel
Products Company, and are furnished
through the Tennessee Coal, Iron and
Railroda Company.
1t is stated that another shipment
to the same vicinity will be made in
February, which will be even larger
than the first. 1t is believed, moreover
that Savannah will become a regular
distributing point for steel rails and
similar products from the Birmingham

needed, that the fruit trees and alfalfa
crops may be increased in several Sec

GOVERNMENT TO
Hold EVIDENCE
AdduCed in Trial of Dyna
mitGFS

Washington, D, c January 17.-At
conference between Attorney Gen
eral Wickersham and Charles w. Mil
Ter, United States attorney at Indian
apolis, who conducted the dynamite
conspiracy" trial, it was decided that
the government will hold the evidence
given at the trial intact and not for
ward it to state authorities for such
prosecution as they might desire to
undertake under state law, unless a
request is received from state officials.
The evidence will OF be disturbed,
certainly until after the appeals of the
defendants have been decided by the
circuit court of appeals.
Unless murder should be the charge
investigated by state authorities, it is
said that the statute of limitations has
run out on many of the possible Of
lenses they might desire to inquire in
to.
Mr.. Miller gave the attorney a gen
eral review of the trial, as it was his
first personal report to his superior
since the beginning of the case at In
dinapolis, which resulted in the con-
viction of 80 labor leaders and
others of an alleged conspiracy to
transport dynamite unlawfully by in
terstate commerce. The federal pros.
ecutor received tn congratulations of
the attorney general.
