PRISON REFORM.
HON. Charles Dudley Warner to Discuss
the subject in this City.

Hon. Charles Dudley Warner has accepted
an invitation 10 deliver an address IN TINS
CITY ON "PrisOn Reform A number OF
ur0minent gentlemen in this city in prl-
vote way extended an invitation TO Mr..
Warner 10 deliver this address, and he
promptly accepted. The time will be shortly
after New Year The exact date VIII De
settled i'm the next letter received from Mr..
Warner. The meeting will be held IN a
large hall. and the public VIII he invited
II is contemplated 10 have Mr.. Warner iol-
lowed by local speakers, among whom VIII
be Judre George l.. Christian, formerly
Judge Of the Hastings Court OF klchmohd'
Juden Samuel Is. WITT. the present judge,
Tx-Police Justice u. {. Richardson, who
has taken lively interest in the Reforma-
tory. and who is loaded down with figures,
and other gentlemen.
Mr. Warner is not an orator, but pam.
practical. pleasant speaker. lie Is hlgh-
Isl cultured gentleman with very broad
IDEAS. and has taken very active interest
in prison reform.
In conversation Yesterday with a TIMES
repOrter. Major Robert stiles, who is idenil-
lied with the movement to improve the
moral condition of the criminals here, stated
that Richmond was years behind the times.
The aims Of the gentlemen interest
ed m TINS matter WERE hohtNhdi
comprehensive. They desired to see
a reformatory for youthful criminals,
instead of filthy Jail, where they
mingled with hardened criminals. and were
taught how to be adopts in the art of crime.
What was badly needed was place to keep
prisoners accused Of crime, but who had
not been convicted, thus preventing the eX-
isting custom Of compelling what may DC
am innocent man TO sleep in the cell with a
convicted thief To see prisoners after
they have served their time in the
city iail and exert what moral inlu-
cnce that can be brought into use. A
house of industry was needed, where
the criminal could be taught TO ie
honest and at the same earn his own llv-
inc. aud a place for the street gamin who
now has 20 be discharged because the PO-
lice Justice will not send little children to
iail. and who grow up thieves. The
leader in this movement is at work, and II
the City Council will brace up and build
the institutions needed. it is believed that
the surplus income from the Police Court
will keep them in operation, certainl,
with little help.
