Punishment of Criminals.

"Adark cells not an adequate pun
ishment for a desperado," says Mr..
Baker, superintendent OF the New
York State Prisons. "Why, l have
known prisoners to get tat by being
confined in the dark cell on a diet OF
bread and water. They seem to curl
up and go to sleep ~contentedly, like a
alternating animal. Somele less passive
infection is needed 10 bring them to
terms. Let me illustrate. | once Wis.
tied one of our State prisons, where a
big hulking rufian with an iron bar
split open the skull of a slender youth
against whom he conceived some
grudge. The latter should not have
been sent to the prison at ALA re-
formatory vas the place for him, but
there ne lay with a fractured head. 1t
was shortly after / j had abolished the
use OF the paddle; and, by the way, l
had discovered the law and had issued
| my order before Grover Cleveland in
formed me that he had found the
same statute. Well, the burly rufian
who felled the boy had no dread Of
padding. He was ~insolent and def
ant; the dark cell possessed no terrors
to him. The convict sent to that dun
| geon always determines the duration
| of his own stay there, for he is let out
when he becomes submissive. Well, /
sent for the oldest keeper in the jail
| and I asked him if he coui6 suggest
| some punishment not inhibited by
law. After mature reflection he re.
piled that he had once been in the ma

by the wrists. got him to rig his APP
paratus, and / tested it by having
him hang myself up. What doubts !
entertained as to its efficacy were
speedily dissipated by a brief expert
ence. was not hurt, but / was aw-
fully glad to sit down. Then / sent
for the thug. He entered defiant, and
laughed at the ordeal before him.
With q slip-knot adjusted to his wrists,
he was soon hoisted until his toes
touched the ground. AT FIRST he
laughed. After a little he began to
blaspheme most savagely. A little
while longer and he yielded, then wept
and whined and begged for rres.cy,
promising to behave forevermore like
a cherub. When let down he dropped
in a heap like q bag Of rags In less
than fifteen minutes from being taken
from his bench no was taken hack
there with no injury done TO him, yet

A Wonderful Clock.

The famous clock of Strasburg, says
the Pail Mall Gazette, is put COM
pletely In the shade by "the great
world clock, or the 10000 year time
Indicator"
1t was constructed in Germany dur.
ing many 'laborby Mr.. Christian
Martin, clock-maker. The clock
marks the years and leap years, and
will run for ahundred centuries, when,
as the bill frankly admits it's "mechan-
ic works will have to be change.
The face of the clock is about ten feet
square, and has q large number of
dials and little inches, where 122 little
figures have their abiding place.
These latter, as the ever-ready bill
explains, are "to allegorize human
life" Every minute q sorrowful-look.
ing angel hits a bell with a sledge-
hammer. When he has done this
fifteen times another angel in a red
robe strikes the first quarter. "The
Genius" dressed i'm Louis XIV.
costume, turns a dial SO that the
figure is shown. At the same time the
figure of @ child appears at a lower
door. At the second quarter a youth
appears, at the third a middle-aged
man with spectacles and a high hat,
and at the fourth adeerepid old wreck
with q white wig. While all this is
| going on below, Death, in the shape of
q Camanche Indian with wings, has
been vainly endeavoring to hammer
q bell in an upper inche, but an angel
has headed him off in every case and
protected the human family srby rails
ing the right hand in an allegorical re-
lation,' as per programme, until the
fourth quarter. Then Death gets the
better OF the struggle, strikes the hour,
and bundles the old man of into
eternity. The twelve apostles are
trotted out-each hour. Above them
is a figure OF Christ, "who blesses with
both hands each apostle In passing z
as the bill states, with mathematical
exactness. At morning, noon and
night a number of bell ringers ring
their respective bell with vindictive
energy, and an old man drops upon
his knees rs il some one had kicked
his legs out srom under him. All these
and many other wonders, exposing
the family secrets Of the zodiac, the
heather gods, the seasons, the moon
and the globe all run regularly. The
whole structure is surmounted by "A
cock; whichcrcws at o and 12o'clock
A
