The Reform School,

Burnham Wardwell, the prison reformer,
spoke to the Constitutional Club in New
York city Wednesday night. Wardwell
spoke of visiting the Reform School in
Maine, where the boys had pint of milk
and water and a piece of bread each for
breakfast at a. M, after which they work
ed in a briekyard until noon. He was not
inclined to say a blessing there, when asked
to do so.
Mr.. Wentworth, the assistant superintend-
ent of the Reform School, says Wardwell
has not been to that institution for eight
years, neither has there been brick yard
there for that time.
In regard to Mr.. O'Donoghue's letter to
the Governor and Council, requesting that
mass may be celebrated at the school and
the Catholic boys instructed in the cate
chism, Gov. Robbie stated to the Council that
the trustees do not have and have not had
any objections to Catholic priests visiting
the school and instructing the Catholic boys
and celebrating mass; and that while they
are unwilling to give them special authority
to do so bya formal vote, there is not and
has not been anything to prevent them from
so doing,
