EDUCATION AND CRIME.
Some Interesting Figures Prepared From a Study of Reformatory Inmates at Jeffersonvllle Prison
The secretary of the Indiana board of state charities preeonted to the national educational association at Detroit, some interesting statements regarding some of the defects of the inmates of the Indiana reformatory at Jcffersonville. That institution receives those males who are between 16 and 30 years and have been sentenced to prison.
A short study was made of the last 500 inmates received up to and including May 31st, 1801. The facts brought out are said to verify those of previous investigations in a striking way.
It is generally recognized that the family relations of over half of the inmates of our reformatory institutions have been disturbed. One or both parents are dead or they live apart The youths Have been deprived of home training. The largest proportion are notably deficient in education Of the 500 studied,
(30
The stooping shoulders, awkward arms and shambling gait of these young men indicate plainly a lack of physical training. 406 or 81.2 per cent, claim to have no trades. In these busy times when there is a demand for workmen, 252 or 50 4 per cent, state that they were unemployed when the crime was committed. Evil associates lead to bad habits. While it is not claimed that those shown were the cause of crime, it is interesting to note their relationship to it. 312 or 62 4 per cent, use liquor. .'174 or 74.8 per cent, smoke cigarettes. 409 or 81.S per cent, use tobacco in some form.
On the contrary it is shown that they have not been to any very great extent, under those influences which are considered helpful. Many have been deprived of proper home influences. 286 or 57 2 per cent, have not attended Sunday school. Only one of the five hundred examined claimed to have belonged to the Y. M. C. A.
The offenses of these persons may be classified as crimes against persons and crimes against property. It will be seen that 8S per cent, of them fall under the latter class.
It will be observed that there is something notably lacking in these young men. They lack home training, mental training, physical training and manual training. The lack of religious training has also been noted.
With the light we have, the great need i9 for the prevention of crime, efforts in that direction will be most fruitful. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure When the school, the church and the home shall fully understand the facts and the urgent need for renewed effort along every line that may possibly be used to save the boys and girls, the figures will have a different story to tell.
The following are some of the results shown by the investigation: Statistics of last 500 persons received at Indiana reformatory up to June 1st, 1901.

MILITIA ENCAMPMENT.
To Be at the Fair Grounds at Indianapolis—Begins July 20th.
The annual camp of instruction of the Indiana national guard will beheld on the state fair grounds this year. The militiamen will report at the camp Saturday, July 20, and camp will be "broken" on the ensuing Saturday. Many reasons actuated the state's military authorities in making this selection for the camp, it is said, chief of which was that the state board of agriculture generously donated its grounds free of rent or charge of any kind, while a private owner of part of the Fairview site demanded what was regarded as an exorbitant rental for its use. The street railway company tendered free of charge as much of Fairview Park as is available for such purpose, but on examination this ground proved not to be sufficient without including the private ground mentioned.
The military authorities were highly gratified at the patriotic and friendly spirit displayed by the street railway officials in making a donation of $1,000 to help defray the expenses of this year's camp of instruction. In addition to this liberal donation the company will, it is understood, transport to and from the fair grounds the entire outfit of camp equipage stored in the quartermasters' depot in the basement of the capitol. The company has also vounteered to carry to the camp free of charge all the guardsmen, together with their cooks and such other helpers as they may have with them. The men may have free transportation to the Union station after camp is "broken," if they so desire. It is likely, however, that the three regiments will march back to town after they have done with their week of military training.
The camp will be situated in the beautiful strip of woods on the west line of the fair grounds, close to the tracks of the Monon railroad. Camp Mount, in which the national guard was assembled at the outbreak of the Spanish-American war, was looked upon with disfavor as a location for this year's camp of instruction because of its lack of shade.
Will Probably Come.
Some time since McPherson Post wrote asking Will H. Thompson to come here to deliver an address for the benefit of the organization. The following letter has been received from him: "SEATTLE,Wash.—To the Entertainment Committee McPherson Post, G. A. Crawfordsville. Ind.—Gentlemen and Comrades:—Your invitation to me to deliver an address at Music Hall some time this summer or fall, for the benefit of your sick fund, has been received. 1 should be very much pleased to do my part toward relieving the sick members of your post. The years bear heavily upon those who went down to battle in the old heroic days. The hardships, exposure and excitements of the four, long, gloomy years left their impress upon the vital forces of every man who was really a soldier, and as age creeps on the little lesions begin, and the strength creeps away far more rapidly than if their youth had not been subjected to such shocks. In a little while ail will be gone. They and their deeds will be but memories, but as Lincoln said on the old field of Gettysburg. 'The world will never forget what they did.' If there is any reason to believe that I can help the cause you have at heart,
I shall be only too glad to render my liitle aid, and will correspond with you further regarding the matter. "Respectfully your friend, "WILL

Circus Coming.
One more circus is coming our way this summer and it is no "ten, twenty, thirt" either. The old reliable John R. Robinson's shows will be here July 31, and all who felt that they were sold on the last attraction in the circus line can come to town on this date and see elephants galore and have chances to buy red lemonade enough to float an issue of government bonds.
