stories and in divers WAYS
Il was a curious, yet withal a sad sight
Among them were great, powerful fellows,
with splendid muscles and intelligent facts
men who. had they stuck TO the paths Of
honesty, might have ranked high among
their fellows in social and political life.
Then there were scores Of low browed con

always characterizes a sneak thief, who did
not seem at all out OF their proper sphere
There were large men and small men, fat
men and lean men and ugly men. in fact,
every type of mankind could have been So
lected from among them There were many
present whom the reporter knew in happier
times
Towering high above all the -est was the
figure of a man who now owns one OF the
finest farms in Clark county and who once
stood among the foremost in MS neighbor-

lines OF their farms
He is over 10 years Of age, his hair and
beard are long AID gray, and it is apparent

single file. Each had his right hand on the
shoulder OF the man in front of him.
The FIRST rows were first filled. then tho
second. and so on until every seat was
taken A space in the rear right hand cor

On the right side OF the pulpit is a space
reserved for visitors, and here the reporter
sat, while on the left is the little organ and
the benches for the choir a smooth faced
youthful prisoner took his seat at the nstru
ment while the choir. the members Of which
all wore stripes, took their seats.
The little organ responded TO the touch Of
the convict player, and the choir sang,
Nearer Ny God. to Thee" as well as they
render it in most churches where the rem
hers are free. Several other songs were sung,
ard then the chaplain preached an eloquent
sermon.
Every man listened attenuvely through
out, and there were tears in the eyes Of many
when the good man had concluded Then
another song was sung, the benediction was
pronounced and the men slowly fled ont
