"Look here" said Grabbinger to Slopoigh,
"when are you going to pay me that hundred
dollars you borrowed about eight years agoF'
"Do you mean to say that owe you a hun
dred dollars!"
''To be sure. You certainly haven't for
gotten it."
MY dear sir, do not doubt that you
loaned hundred dollars to some one eight
years ago; but can demonstrate By science
that am not the man"
"I'd like to see how the mischief you are
going to do it"

scientists that men undergo en- entire change

oners pass. They all wear the stripes of red
and blacl Each man rests his left hand on
the shoulder OF the man in front OF him, and
I'll walk with the slow lock step OF prisoners.
A convict stands with his face to the wall,
his head hung, and looking down at his feet.
He is waiting for something or some one, and
while he waits must face the wall. This is
prison discipline, and is intended TO keep the
convict from gaping about him, especially at
visitors.
The Trenton prison is composed Of build
ings or wings radiating from the central
rotunda Some of them are new, and some
were built i'll 1887. The new ones have line
of cells built in several tiers, each tier with
q balcony in the center, tbo cells facing out
ward on the sides. One can pass along one
side of the end of the wing, around it, and
back by the other side The light is let in
from high windows in the walls Of the wing.
The wings built in 1881 differ essentially in
this respect. Instead of facing outwards
they face inwards, two rows being oppositl
each other and opening on corridor.
1t is in such wing as this that the women
are confined Mrs. Patterson is the matron,
and to her exclusive care the prisoners are
committed While the male prisoners go to
work in shops separate from the prison wings
In which are their cells, the women work in
the corridor upon which their cells face In

up with it the first six months because we
were afraid and the next six because we liked
to see people enjoy themselves. Then we
warned the public to let up or somebody
would get hurt. Last Wednesday night a
rock weighing three pounds came through a
window and barely missed our head as we
lay sleeping on our cot As wa got to the
door with shot gun some ono could be seen

machine and with the needle There are only
thirty-seven of them, and they are kept busy
making such articles as are needed in tbs
prison.
Mrs Hamilton has not been set to work
Her nervous system has been badly strained,
and doubtless her not being given work is by
direction of the prison physician. Her cell is
on the top tier. Here she passes her time
brooding over her situation; perhaps looking
forward to a time when she shall be released.
She has been committed for two years, but
by good behavior may reduce the term by
four months and twelve days. This will
make the term of her confinement one year,
seven months and eighteen days, at the END
of which time she may go free, and if the
public curiosity a5out her is not cooled by
that time she may fly very high as a sensar
ton. But whether she will be rearrested and
tried for conspiracy in foisting a spurious
child upon Robert Ray Hamilton is another
question. Judging by his past action, if her
prosecution rests with him he will not trou-
BILE her.

VIEW OF PRISON.

know that you are locked in. You pass to
the right and are ushered into a reception
room. 1t is the only apartment you will SEQ
fitted up like an ordinary room. While you
wait, now and then a male prisoner, acting
on some duty connected with the manage
ment, wearing only the striped trousers and
shirt without the jacket, passes in or out.
Even here there is a buster look than on the
outside
If you so to the prison to catch a view of
Eva Hamilton you will be disappointed Be-
fore you leave the reception room you may
know this. So great has been the pressure
so see this woman, so singularly attractive
30 the public, that visitors have been shut out
of the woman's department altogether. Al
though the prison is usually open in every
part at stated hours to those who wish to in
spect it, since Eva Hamilton's arrival the
womans department has been closed to all
who call. If you have special business with
the prisoner, or if you represent the press,
you may be favored, though even then the
chances are that you will only be allowed to
communicate with her in writing, and it is
useless for sightseers to go to Trenton to see
her, for she is not to bs seen.
The visitor passes through tho short corri-
dor leading from the front door to a sort of
rotunda where are the keepers headquarters,
and through which everybody passes, not
only those coming and going to and from the
prison, but the prisoners themselves to and
from meals There is a gate composed of
steel bars dividing this rotunda from the en-
trance corridor. 1t is unlocked for you and
locked after you. Perhaps you enter just
after dinner. If SO you will see a convict

people form a little prison world, may
have become accustomed to it; but one
who visits it for the first time does so with
far different sensations. The prison walls
are silent, but speak to the imagination of
scenes within. Seldom, if ever, is face seen
at the barred windows, for these openings
are too high for the inmates to catch a
glimpse through them of the outside world.
Indeed, state prison is a gloomy, silent pile,
silence within.
The New Jersey state prison at Trenton,
where Eva Hamilton is confined, is such
building in outward appearance 1t is broad
and low, of brown stone, and with something
of that Egyptian style of architecture seen
in the Tombs of New York. About it
are such low houses and yards as are to be
expected on the outskirts of a city. The Wis
itor who walks up to the door will find no
side windows, as in ordinary abodes. There
is simply the door bell, while posted before
the eyes of all who enter are printed rules
for visitors. These mention times and inter-
walls at which visitors, parents, brothers, sis
tiers, may visit those within.
Then these people have parents, brothers,
sisters. They are human beings. They not
only suffer but cause others to suffer
The ring is answered by prison official in
uniform. The door is unlocked, the visitor
passes in, the lock is turned behind him, and
the key-hung about the officers person-is

An Italian contemporary describes the
Greek colonies which exist In many parts
Of Calabria,
They were originally settlements of the
Albanians and Epirotes who, about three
centuries ago, crossed the Adrialic Sea,
and found new homes on italian soil.
They have preserved the Greek lam
guage, though somewhat corrupted, until
the present day, and they still retain
many of their ancestral customs.
A marriage In one OF these colonies has
several old Greek features.
On the wedding day the brideer DOM,
accompanied ty troop of young men,
carrying banner. appears before the
brides house, aud knocks loudly at the
door. The door is at once flung open,
and the bride In her long wedding gar
ment is seen on the threshold.
She wears coronet of flowers, and she
and her bridesmaids Join the procession
OF the young men, and walk TO the
church.
TIE marriage is celebrated after the
Greek ritual. At the communion after
tie marriage the priest dips the sacred
host In chalice, according to the East
ern use, and gives it to the husband and
wife.
He sets kind of crown upon the head
OF each 10 turn.
There is also procession round table
placed In the nave OF the church, on
which the crown is laid, and man and
wife alternately take up the crown and
wear 1t during the procession.
Tho wedding party then marches TO the
house OF the husband.
Here the Vile, following ancient prece-
dent hesitates at the threshold, and Af.
iects dread of entering. The mother
in law appears, however, to welcome her,
embraces her new daughter, and places Q
sugared almoud In the young wiie's
mouth.
This Is the sign that she may hereafter
regard herself as the true house mistress
She crosses the threshold, and the Who'll,
party follows.
