THE PSYCHOLOGY OF CRIME.

Following the horrible crime of Hans Schmidt and
the revelations of the criminal scheme of which he
head, comes the clearing up of another murder
mystery. man in Philadelphia confesses murder
which he committed in Rochester four years ago.
There was apparently no reason for the con-
fession, tine old principle that murder will
out No real clue to the crime had been barred.
The criminal had completely eludeu pursuit Aside
from the workings of that mysterious something in
side him that urged him on, there was seemingly no
reason why he should ever tell his story.
But he did; and it is an impressive fact that al
most every startling revelation of crime is followed
by series of limitations. The crime may be imi-
tated, or the confession may be initiated. Dramatic
circumstances surrounding one mans accidental
death from taking bichloride tablets caused a very
mania for that particular form of death. Suggestion
and imitation constitute most potent elements in any
analysis of crimes psychology.

AMERICAN EMBAsslEs-AND OTHERS.

The German government several years ago
bought site in Washington For embassy building
The land cost over 100000, ard now plans have
been adopted in Berlin for $5OOO0O building.
The government of Argentina appropriated $780,
600 to establish an ambassador:al residence here,
and one of the finest modern residences in the fash
ionabe part of the city has been bought
1t is worth while to compare these expenditures Of
Jther governments with the niggardness that marks
the American effort ambassadorial quarters
in foreign capitals A few years ago. Congress au-
thorzed the Secretary of State to look into the pro
vision of such residences in capitals where we main
tain embassies but it stipulated that not over $780,,
600 should be spent in any capital
To establish an ambassadoriaI residence in Lor-
don, Paris or any other capital of Europe would
cost somewhere around ST 100000 at the very cheap
est Germany has recently spent two-thirds of that
sum, more, getting embassy in St. Petersburg.
The British establishment in Paris is stated to be
worth about ST. 100000, which is times what it
cost the British government century ago.
Washington is not great metropolitan center.
Prices of land modest here. If it costs second
class country like Argentina $500 OOO and if it costs
Germany $4,000 to establish an embassy here, it
is manfestly ridiculous to think of acquiring am
bassadoral establishment in any of the great capitals
within the amount thus far authorized.
American diplomatic representation will never at
tain dignity and character worthy of this nation
until proper provision is made for permanent and t-
ting residences for the ambassadors.

A DEFENSE OF THE BAYONET.

We have been hearing a good deal about the
sselessness Of the bayonet in modern warfare, but
captain Solovieff, Russian officer whose observa-
tons on the Manchurian campaign are printed in
recent issue of the Infantry Journal, comes to its
defense. He declares that, employed against the
japanese, it carried positions in few minutes on
which millions of bullets had been rained for days.
Inaccuracy of FIRE due to growing recklessness
in the use of ammunition has negatved in Captain
Solovieff's opinion, the theory that the magazine
rifle would cause battles to be lost before the
opposing forces could get within sight of each other
If an army doesn't get panic-strcken from clouds of
bullets discharged without aim into the atmosphere
and from the terrifying din of the firing it has a
chance to hold its ranks together until it can get to
close quarters.
While the military value Of the bayonet is
question to be debated by experts, the fact that
experience in the war with Russia taught such good
judges as the Japanese to value that weapon highly
must convey even to the lay mind impression
that it is not likely to become obsolete for some
time. And reports of fighting in the Balkan conflict
were sprinked mot little with stories of hand-to-
hand encounters.

CHECKING RENT RISES.

Some months ago bomb was thrown into real
estate circles in New York when one of tine largest
life insurance companies announced that if would
stop lending money TO builders of apartment houses
The officials of the company had come to the con-
cuson, based on a census taken under its own drec-
ton, that New York was overbuilt and that until
the population caught up with the supply of residen-
tia properties it would be neither wise nor profitable
to lend money for tine creation of what would neces-
sarily be an oversuppiy of homes.
An echo of this momentous decision is to be found
in the report of the tax commissioners, in which il is
declared that the erection of new buildings is prac-
tically at standstill in Manhattan lowing to the
policy of the companies which make loans on mort
cages in refusing to advance money for building
construction" And the report adds the reason for
this is "an excess of supply demand

paying the penalty of oyerbuding since recent rents
have not gone up generally yet taxes have increased

THE IMMIGRATION TO CANADA.

The Canadian government has lately issued a re-
port the immigration into the Dominion during
the year ended with March, last which is exceedingly
interesting Canada we learn, is avoiding the prob
lens of the melting pot assimilation and amalgama-
ton. Almost all its immigrants are English-speakng
people, In the year under discussion 10000 such
came from the United Kingdom, 2494 from other
parts of the empire and 900 from the United
States. Only 900 came from all other countries.
Almost three fourths of the years arrivals Eng
disappearing people.
Comparing this with our American figures, it is
plain that Canada is thus far at least in the way Of
maintaining homogeneiy of language, race, and
institutions that has long since departed from the
United States. 1t is unnecessary to assume that
other people, speaking other tongues, bringing other
ideals and institutions, are less desirable citizens
than those of the English-spealng race The fact is
that assimilation of such heterogeneous multitude
as pours annually into this country is problem of
no small importance, and the fact that our grea
and fast-growing neghbor seems thus far to be with
out that problem is surely significant.
There is no question about the survival of the
English, or perhaps better the American, tongue in
this country. Despite s our varieties Of
immigration, there is no section of the coun-
try in which alien tongue survives as the
marked characteristic of great community, as
the French tongue survives in Canada. There
French persists generation after generation; here
the children of alien immigrants very commonly have
an imperfect knowledge or little at all, of the Ian
guage their parents brought. Perhaps right there is
the proof that we are able to take of all the
comers we assmilate them faster than tine Cana
dans do

EUROPE AND SAN FRANCISCO'S FAIR.

The current number of Munseys Magazine, dis
cussing the disposition of European governments
snub the San Francisco fair suggests that it becomes
all the more an American duty to patronize the fair
literally. 1t adds:
Why not a Seeing America League of States and
cities for the purpose of attracting entertaining and
instructing people by getting them to look
around at home for single instead of going
Europe? Provide them with rates. routes and facilities
for seeing what they want whether it's the stockyards
district at Kansas City the smeers Pueblo the yell
1owstone Park the big trees of California, the
position. Coorados Alps and Cafornias Riviera ask
odds of the imported goods Isn't it possible
ganize around the boycott of canal show counter
boycott with the aim of keeping tourists at home
and showing them country for season?
Assuredly it seems short-sigh policy for Euro
pean countries, which gather in hundreds of millions
of American dollars annually from sight-seers to
treat the San Francisco fair they are doing Half
of Europe would be in financial distress if it were
not for the stream of American gold that flows thther
in the capacious pockets of tourists Even if every
dollar invested in representations at an American
exposition were wasted as to direct returns, no
country of Europe could afford TO overlook the op-
portuniy of testifying its appreciation of perennial
American GberaliY toward Europe.

PANAMA ROCKS,

F'rom the North East, Pa. SUM-
Panama is a famous place,
Where mighty rocks are seen;
And many pilgrims go there.
To view the wondrous scene
They are in the heart of old Chautauoua,
Perched on a grand old hill:
At the foot Of which meanders,
A sparkling little rill.
They are rift with many assures,
Narrow. deep and damp:
Through which the many visitors,
Crawl. creep and tramp.
These giant rocks Of old
Are Of aqueous formation;
And were thrown upon the hillside.
In the process OF creation,
