AS an indication of his ability to administer

five fancy drinks.
1t is the intention to supply parties, suppers

"One In every seventy five men in New York
is criminal" says DR.. Lyman Abbott, and
in opening the meeting at Stenway hall on
Tuesday evening, Secretary Round, of the
Prison association, said that 50,690 persons
are now locked up in this state for wrong
doing. The number of criminals in the state
is estimated to be five times greater, and is
increasing much faster than the population.
Such statistics indicate an urgent need of the
work undertaken by the Prison association of
New York. and also of work outside of
prison walls to save boys from entrance upon
lives of crime. 1t is possible to make our
prisons reformatory, and that is the purpose
of the Prison association. tits possible also
to establish and enforce laws to increase the
restraints from crime and to create moral
influences which will prevent the ruin of such
vast number of the young. To accomplish
these results should be the endeavor of every
good citizen. To check the growth of the
criminal and boggar classes, the people must
earnestly support the work of reformers like
those of the Prison association.

lAlnerlcan rIeSlSUer.
A free journey by rail inside a carriage
holding complimentary" in your waist
coat pocket may be, and doubtless is, a very
pleasant thing. To travel free as Mr.. George
Adams, of Wolverhampton, England, did
the other day. however is scarcely to be
recommended. Nor is it at all pleasant, as
that gentleman will be ready at this moment
to admit. Mr.. Adams found himself in
Liverpool sans six sous, and being of a sans
souci disposition, determined to get home by
a new and original method of "macing the
RATHER" as craftsman would say; id est, of
cheating the railroad company.
His idea, to say the least of 1t, was ingeni-
Gus, but he had rec1oned without his host.
He procured TWO stout pieces of rope, which
he fastened to the axles of the carriage,
leaving moose at the end of each Into
one moose he put his legs, while he inserted
his shoulders into the other. In this position
he hung when the train started. The train
was an express and did not stop until Crewe
was reached, which is about seventy miles
from Liverpool. He was rather uncomforta-
BILE when the train began to move, but when
it got into full swing he had real torture,
and when he reached Crewe he was nearly
dead with fright Here he was taken into
custody. To the magistrate who adjudicated
on the case he explained that his sensations
when swaying to and fro were something
awful, and the effect of the sleepers as they
rushed past him nearly robbed him of rea-
son, and he "was afraid that every moment
the rope would slip from his shoulders and
hang him." The magistrate decided very
cutely that he had had enough punishment,
and remarking very sagely that he was not
likely to repeat the experience, sent him
about his business. An excursion on the
stick of a Congrove rocket on the tail of
comet might be more exciting than this, but
NOT much
