The Epidemic of Crime

The epidemic of crimes has become so common, so familiar, that people don't notice the enormous proportion in the news of crime items. The other day on one bulletin board were murder, robbery, burglary, rape, fire, lynching, suicide, death in several forms, and seduction and politics, as the contents of the morning paper. Yet it was hardly noticed.—S. F. Chronicle.
