A bad • tiftJftght,tyok possession of my brain, * Ana P struck without .knowing what I did,” The Skulls of Murderers. ' One.of tlie most curious collections in the great Affliropological Museum in the Paris Exhibition of last year was a collection of thirty-six skulls of murder ers who Imd been guillotined in Fra This''collection has been care fully studied by Mr. Bonder, who has published tho results of his studies in the last number of .Broca’s Jicvve d Anthrofxilogir. The most striking result of his observa tions is jkke very large cubic capacity of those, crania. In fact, the average Volume of the thirty-six skulls, measured with uhothy Broca’s method, is*s much as 154911 cubic centimeters. Eliminating.. howCVer, one of the skulls which isof usual size (2070 cubic cefitiinotorsj) and is ob viously abnormal, the average is reduced to 1531 Cubic centimeters. But even this figure is considerably higher than the average of an ordinary series of modem crania. In ofder to find skulls of equal capacity it is necessary to go hack to iiidiistoric time's; thus the capacity Or AnutM hflcalW is 1615, and that of the type from tlie cave of L’jlomme Mort is 1000*5 cubic centr- nietcrs. The development of the murder ers’ skulls is not in the frontal, hut in the paricto-occipital region; and it api pears to indicate a low intellectual standard, with a strong tendency to powerful action. Most of the cerebral characteristics presented by the skulls of these criminals are comparable with thosi <n prehistoric races. A murderer may bo regarded as an anachronism, and lus character may he explained on the principle of atavism, or reversion to an early type. If n prehistoric savage could he introduced into modern society lie would probably become a notorious criminal; on the other hand, if one of tho brutal mimic rifts of modern times had lived in prehistoric ages, ho might have been a chief of liis tribe, highly respected.
