the depositors and stockholders oEthe
Merchants Union Trust company, Nak,
ter S. Shourds, former superintendent
! of the safe deposit vaults of the trust
company, who stole securities and
400, 900, presented himself before
Judge Hall, of Elk county, in quarter
sessions court, and the indictment
against him was submitted to jury
for a verdict of not guilty. The full
value of the securities and money was
returned by Shourds some months ago
In presenting the case in court Dis
trict Attorney Rotan laid all the facts
before the judge. Shourds was origi
nally employed by the Union Trust
company and was retained when that
company merged with the Merchants
Trust company.
In the latter part of last September
i a. year ago officials of the trust com
pany informed the district attorney
that Shoufds had disappeared and that
shortages aggregating between $25,0OC
and $4,000 had been uncovered.
The following January, after the

from the strong box of George w
Burnham, Jr., director of the trust
company.
Shourds went to Germany and was
traed by letters to his wife, and re
turned when promised immunity if h
returned the securities So suspicious
was Shourds that he might be trapped
that he planted" half the amount OF
the stolen bonds and cash in Ger
many. Subsequently when he was as.
sured that he need have no fear as to
the outcome of the case, he went back
to Germany accompanied by private
detective, and the full amount of bonds
and money was returned to the trust

rate in Bradford and Cornwall made a sudden de-
cline. And it has continued to decline since.
If this were merely to cut down the pOpua-
ton the matter wouldn't be serious, but there
are worse results already flowing from these con-
dtions.
Biologists have shown that the first two chill
dren Of family are twice as susceptible to hered-
1tary disease, crime etc. as the following Ac
cOrding to numerical average the first child
should run a chance of contracting tuberculosis
represented by the number ga; as a matter of
fact actual cases contracted would be represented
by the number 80. In the matter of crime the
first born should according to average, inherit
percentage of times represented by Sc; but in
actual fact the percentage is represented by 1901!
The second child should contract tuberculosis
according to the number Ga actually it is repre-
sented by the number 80.
But the third child is more Fortunate Ac-
cording to average his chance should be So ac-
tually it is 40 And what is true of tuberculosis
is equally true of crime imbecility, insanity, and
kindred misfortunes. All this means that
WHERE THE SIZE OF FAMILIES DECREAS-
Els, DEGENERATIVE AFFECTIONS IN
CREASE.
In Scotland for 1871 the percentage of lunacy
per thousand was 22; by 1897 it had risen to 3,5,
In 1873 infant imbecty, one of the surest symp-
toms Of racial degeneration, was Z per cent,
while in 1895 it had cimed to a per cent. And
what has been true Of Scotland has held good on
the whole throughout the United Kingdom.
On top of this is the further startling fact
that detectives are 20 per cent more fertile than
normal beings. Degeneracy, therefore, once it
has made an entrance, increases by a geometric
ratio. From small beginning it will increase to
alarming extent.
This is in sense to hold brief for child
labor but merely to an illustration. The
remedy for these conditions is not to return the
children to factories and Mines but to subsdze
those fathers and mothers who do their duty by
the race
1t may be laid down as a law that any nation
which makes it more difficult to rear four chill
dren than two has unWittingly opened the door
to its decline. This is what the Income Tax
has DONE in principle at least, for it exempts the
person with two children but compells the person
with four to pay the same percentage as the
childless.
