SOMEBODY, who signs himself Peter
Punch" sends us, under. the title "Sines
of the times" a long communication, in
which the writer scars on metaphysical
pfnions into the realms of the infinite,
dives into the unfathomable, inquiries
into the origin and destiny of the uni
verse, and comes at last to conclusions
not exactly orthodox. Then, in a note
appendant to the article, Peter Punch
intimates to us, that if we " want an an
swer to the above" he is at our "servis'
for one or two more articles. We are
compelled to decline the kind prefer,
for the reason, first, that we lever pub
fish communications that come to us
anonymously, and we have no space for
%protracted debate upon abstruse points
of science or theology, especially when
assailant and defender are united in one
person. Besides, it is not always posi-
BILE for us to spend the time to put these
highly philosophical dissertations into
correct English.

Ed. BULLETIN-Deor Sir:-Quite a
number of the young people of your city
have been engaged for some months in
trying to do something for the benefit
of those despised and dangerous persons
the State is trying to reform by shutting
up in the Buchanan county jail. In
this work those young people have been
greatly aided and encouraged by the
Kindness and courtesy of Sheriff Van
Orsdol, also by the kindly reception
given them by the prisoners.
Through your Kindness, though not
authorized to speak for them, | desire
to say that the citizens might, and |
have no doubt will, when their attention
is called to the matter, greatly aid in
this work by contributing reading mat
ter, such as papers (not last years.,
magazines, books and prayers. The first
should be left with the Sheriff, the last
sem up to the Father of us all from the
closet with the door shut.
In this Cook county, a noble work
has been done. In addition to holding
service in the Jail regularly and fire.
quent visitation for personal interviews,
in which prisoners are encouraged to
forsake their evil ways and betake them
selves to a better life, a Prison Library,
of over seven hundred and fifty volumes,
has been collected, for the use of the
prisoners.
Sheriff Kern says: MY observations
have convinced me that three-fourths of
the prisoners confined in the county Jail
are of that class who have graduated in
almost every form of vice and crime.
Ministers and missionaries have been
encouraged to visit the prisons, and |
believe the influence of their teachings
has contributed much to the good disci-
pline of the prison. By means of a few
good books in the hands of prisoners,
and the personal efforts above referred
to, radical reformations have been
brought about
A few items relating to the Cook
county Jail may be of interest. On the
social score, we note hat out of 2,723
prisoners, only 567 had been, or were.
married. Moral: Young man, get mar,
ried.
Two hundred and seven female pris-
oners were confined here during the
year.

groes) were of American parentage; All

INDEPENDENCE, April 10, Is

INDEPENDENCE, April ~, 1913.
EDITOR BULLETIN:-At the last
meeting of the independence Guards, a
resolution was adopted, wherein the
company expressed it's determination to
properly observe the annual occasion
for decorating our dead soldiers graves,
on May Both. The company, from the
experience of the occasion last year,
feel that this cannot be properly accom-
plished without the aid Of our citizens.
Aside from the immense amount of la
Dor to be performed in successfully car
rying through an enterprise of this kind,
a considerable outlay of money is re-
quired. The committee in charge last
year, found, after settling up all bills,
that they were behind some six or sew
en- dollars, which, of course, called for
an order OF the treasury OF our com
pany. Now this is a small amount, to
be sure, but when it is taken into con-
sideration that the Guards alone did all
the work, and made the affair as sue
cessful as it was, it would seem that
they should not be called upon to pay
any share of the cost. The occasion
last year was successful far beyond ex-
pectatiOn, but 1t our business men will
aid us literally, we propose to better it
this year. If we car secure the nee
essary funds, we have a plan arranged
that will draw thousands of people to
our city. We, as an organization, de-
rive no benefit from this, but we are
cognizant of the fact that the day
should be observed in our city; that it
is our duty to make the necessary prep
arations, and hat if we did not, nobody
would. Consequently, we stand ready
to fulfil our part of the obligation. Now
let our business men respond literally
when O.. our com committee nit approach then them,
they will reap from having a large
crowd in town, they will rest assured Of
having done their share toward making
the observance of a beautiful custom
successful: Yours respectfully,
One OF THE GUARDS,

DECORATION DAY.-It will be seen,
by reference to a communication in an
other column, on this page, headed
Memorial Day" that our military
company proposes to observe the above
day. The argument II correspondent
uses is a forcible one, and we hope our
merchants and others will take it right
home to themselves. Last years ex-
p%erience shows that the occasion may
be made a beautiful one, if all lend a
willing hand, consequently We hope all
will see the propriety of going deep
down in the pocket.

PAY particular attention to
this fact: That Dry Goods, Cloth
ing, Carpets, Notions, Fancy Goods
and Millinery Goods were never
known to be cheaper than at the
present time. And again to this:
That at the NEW YORK STORE
they have an Entirely New Stock
of Goods-not an old piece or ar
ticle in their Store-everything
fresh and new. How much more
pleasant it is to buy goods from a
new stock. Nc shop-worn goods;
no old styles; everything bought
at the lowest possible prices
Customers to receive the benefit
of these prices; and again we sell
goods strictly for cash. We are
therefore enabled to sell goods at
a much less profit than can be
sold where they do a credit bust
ness. 1t is we'll for people to bear
this fact in mind. Times are hard
and a penny saved is a penny
earned" If you go to the NEW
YORK STORE you will get finest
goods, good goods and at the
lowest possible prices. Govern
yourselves accordingly. If you
do not wish to buy at present, go
and look through the stock at the
NEW YORK STORE. We are al
ways glad to show goods. Post
yourselves on prices.
