Hatter. College for Prorogating Criminals.— The name of the Industrial School (says the San Francisco News Letter) is about to be changed to that of “ College for the Propagation of Criminals.” The system of educating boys there is now so perfect that an embryo saint can be transformed into a first-class burglar in less than three years. The junior classes all study safe combinations, skeletons keys, and petty larceny, while the senior boys have to pass in crib-cracking, garrotting, forgery, and grand hirceny in order to graduate. It is said that at a base-ball match at the Industrial School lately, there was not a visitor who went home with a pockcthandkerchief, and most of them had colds. This of itself is a proof of the high standard of discipline maintained there.
