Lient.-Col. Archer was subsequently added
20 the committee. This Board of Distribu.
tiOn spent nearly three mouths in the dis
charge Of the duty assigned them. No parole
was given by members Of the Board but it was
tacitiy understood that no attempt 10 escape
would be made while ia the discharge of this
duty. At that time there were nearly $1,000
enlisted men prisoners at Richmond, divided
among the different prisons as follows: On
Belle Isle, 5000; ia Smith Building, 800; In
Scott Building, 1900; in Crews Building, / 600:
in Pembsrton Building, l,500; in Hospital No.
q, GOO; ia Hospital 30. %, 900; in Huspital
No. 20, $50. Making total Of IA. $50.
This committee left Libby about 8 a. m. every
day, returning at p. rn, and was accompanied
by prison policeman 10 and from the differ
ent prisons.
EACH PRISONER WAS SEEN IN PERsoN
by someone Of the Board, his condition ex-
amined into, and his wants eupplied SO far as IL
was possible 10 do. A receipt was taken from
each man, an accurate account kept Of the
! issues Of clothing and full statement of came
sent 10 cur Government. The men were found
il a very needy and suffering condition, especi-
ally those on Belle Isle. The prisoners there
wero confined within an embankment on the
level portion OF tho island, largely without any
shelter whatever, exposed to all kinds OF
weather, poorly clad aud with starving rations
during the whole Winter. Was IL auy wander

Greece, you know is Kingdom. and 1t has
a King who was chosen for il by Great Bril-
tain, France and Russia. He is the son of the
King of Denmark, and he Is plain, common
sense man OF about 43 years of age. He lives
in "a big marble palace in tho center of Athens.
He Is very popular with the people, and they
pride themselves SO much on their liberty and
equal rights 10 all that they do not believe in
exaiting one OF their own number 10 bo King.
King George suits them very well, and his son,
whom they call the Successor. promises TO be
equally liked. lie Is ine.looking fellow of
about 90, over six feet in hight, aud broad
shouldered and dignfied. lie is in the Greek
army, and has the rank Of Colonel. The Kings
power is not greater than that of the monarchs-
of Europe. The real governing of the country
is done by House of Representatives, who are
elected by the people and who servo for four
years. These make the laws and pass upon all
appropriations. The King has a number of
Cabinet Ministers just as our President has,
and the Departments are about the same save
that there is Minister Of Education aud Of
Ecclesiastical Affairs.
