The prison messenger Is n peculjar
character. He Is attached 20 every police
court in the city, by what right no ono
except himself knows. Although NOT
vested with any authority from local
state or national powers, he has access at
all times 20 the prisons attached 10 the
police courts, and In the latter he appears
to be OF moro importance than the regu.
lar officers paid by the taxpayers, He Is
trustworthy and seems TO have unbounded
faith In human nature. He conducts
business in this fashion: A respectable
young man happens to have been out late
and Is arrested. In the morning he wakes
penniless and with no means Of communi-
eating with his friends. The prison mes.
senger understands the case In moment.
He offers his services, knowing that his
client will be only too anxious to mako
good any expenses. He will run errands,
employ counsel, If necessary, and even
pay prisoners fine without security for
his outlay. The messenger seldom makes
mistake. He has been known to ad.
vance as much as e100 to prisoner who
was confined In the Tombs for week,
without other security than the mans
word. For this little transaction the
prisoner rewarded him with check for

Lesson ON slang.

II was at tho Institute Of Technology,
O few days before the close Of the term.
One of the professors had been troubled
by hearing somo of the students indulg.
ing In slang. Accordingly, when his class
had assembled to hear his lecture, he gave
them ten minute discourse on the use Of
slang, told them how 1t was corrupting tho
language, and that its use was, among
persons of cultivation and refinement, a
sure sign OF Ill breeding. Then he went
on with his regular lecture, and at Its
close called the attention of his class to
the fact that some of them had been re.
miss In their studies, and that 1t be.
hooved them to make up for lost time, OF
they would fail to pass the approaching
examinations. 1.-THE fact isl he con
cluded. you've got TO brace up or you'll

Under the roses hid my heart,
Why should sleep notf Why should it start
When never leaf the rose tree stirredr
What made sleep fiutter bis wings and parts
Only the song Of secret bird.
Lie still said, for the winds wing closes,
And mild leaves mufile the keen SUM- dart;
Lie STILL for the wind or the warm sea doses,
And the wind Is unquieter yet than thou art.
Does q thought in thee still as thorn wound

Does the fang still fret thee Of hope deferredS
What bids the lips Of thy sleep dispartS
Only the song Of secret bird.

And sweet on its trees as the fruit that grows L.,

No hounds note wakens the wild wood hart.

we find some undiscovered islands
where the "refuse" and "resid-

drafted, SO that they may not be-
come dangerous to the comfortable

In the meantime the poor and des-
tltute are being hoodwinked and
swiudled by emigration agents, and
shipped and landed in a country in
which they are strangers, where they
are no more wanted, so it seems,
than they are here. Surely nc
better evidence than this is neces-
sary to completely knock the bot
tom out of this emigration fraud.
Here is positive proof that those OF
the workers who most need change
for the better, are the very ones who
are not required in the countries
where they are told that the reward
of "honest toll" can be obtained
America, Canada, Australia, New
Zealand-all the happy hunting
grounds of the emigration agent art
declaiming against the shipment tt

gain a livelihood here. 1t is higl

this and acted accordingly. Londo'

THE MORAL INFLUENCE OF
SOCIAL ISM.

OOClHlIOM.
Like in every general science, So
cialism is represented by different
schools Of thought. However much
they may differ in method, in the
aim they most heartily agree, as they
do likewise in sentiment. The great
services which the leading socialists
have rendered to the civilized world
consists largely in moral enlighten-
ment. Pure socialism tr.,clcs that
society cannot justly expect desirable
results to flow from unfayorable
conditions. Compulsory education
is socialist in principle; 1t is founded
on the conviction that society has
parental duties to fulfill toward the
Young. The health and wellbelng
of the body socia and polite require
that its component parts be pro-
tcctcd, and accordingly it is for
society to see that men will not deal
with men as if they were simply q
commodity in the market; thus the
! importation Of foreign contract
labor is prohibited, and men who
are shipped here to compete against
the American workingmcn are sent
home again. Education and en-
hghtenment are being promoted
from a sense OF moral obligation,
and 50 is reform in general. There
are certain problems which every IN
diyidual is reasonably supposed to
solve for himself to the extent that
he can do so, but there are also
other problems which it is the busl.
ness of society. to solve collectlveI!
50 as to protect individual interests
In a civilized community every sant
individual member ia kes active par
in the promotion of the genera
good, and this is, in a nutshell tn,
moral principle underlying the SO
cialist propaganda. The communlt,
are being educated by socialists tt
deliver men from the tyranny o
men, and to grant each other llbert
, to live as freemen and not as slaves
The ethics of socialism destroy tn
tendencies of class rule and abolIsl

: Socialism has taught men to asser
/ their manhood and infused int
Q them u spirit of timely resistanc
! against unwarranted presumption
4 and class dictatorship, and is prepal
r ing the way to democratic and fra
y ternal cooperation. Thus it is eS
e pIainabIe why men from the learne
a professions have taken bold stan
on the side of the socialist; and Sc
e ciaIism need not apologize to society
}. for the latter is largely indebted
its teachings for moral and ment,
o elevation and the publication, to
+ considerable extent, of public sent
