Prison Systems.

The whole subject of State prisons, their
reason for being, and the means by which
they shall subserve their end, is still funda-
mentally Inexperienced by the general
public, although both study and experience
have long since made both branches of it
clear to that large and constantly increas-
ing body of men who. whatever the occupa-
ton by which they earn livelihood, make
it the true business of life to serve their fell
low men. 1t is an interesting fact that all
of those who have made themselves experts
in the prison question-men of all coun-
tries. from Russia to America-are unani-
mously of like mind upon all essential points
MISUNDERSTANDING only, if they differ at
all. upon points of minor detail.
This being the situation, the only obsta-
Gle to the adoption everywhere of wise
and truly scientific system of prison ad-
ministration is that of bringing this ascer.
tanned and proven knowledge to make a
part OF the common fund. An essential
point is the financial aspect of the question.
The widely held theory that state prison

should be made to be self-supporting has
long ago proved entirely false and mis-
chievOuS. 1t is based upon the unQues-
toned truth. that to the prisoner labor is
absolutely essential. but it also includes the
false assumption that his labor should be
made as remunerative as possible. No ar
gument is needed to prove that the idleneSs

ton that prison should be self support
Ing institution is false both as social and
economic science, and it needlessly and
banefully complexities the question of the
kind of labor best suited to the needs of
prison discipline. and the ''plan" or ''sys-

The object of prisons is the welfare of

it is the only humane and Christian system.
Such system may possibly be made self
supporting. though this is doubtful; but that
is false science which admits the point of
self support into the question at all.
Akin to this error is that view of the
subject which permits the appointing and
continuance of prison officials to be in the
remotest degree associated with politics.
This error. recognized by large number of
people to whom the economic side of the
problem is not yet clear. is still held by
many. AS well might the appointment of
physicians and nurses in hospitals be

the gift of nursing and even of healing does
sometimes come by nature, but only long
experience and careful study qualify men
for the more serious and difficult task of
healing mans moral life. And this is the
solemn task which is undertaken by modern
science. 1t is no utOpian scheme, untried
and doubtful. Years of experiment in

HUNTING FOR HONEY.

Dainty in the Forests
 The wild bee in Victoria and New South Wales Is the apis mellifica of Europe and the whole civilized world, and, as in America, 1t has spread over 8 great part of the continent. On the Murray river, and in the whole of Riverina, it is especially plentiful, and there found most honey when went out hunting. Though 1t seems mild enough pursuit, in my opinion 1t IS the only really dangerous game to go for in the ancient land of the marsuplals. One has to exercise a considerable amount of awkwardness and to dis play much natural stupidity to get hurt by a kangaroo; the innocent na- tive bear Is no more a real bear than 1t is shark; the sneaking dingo will lie down to be killed, and, as for the fierce and formidable mosquito, man IS his prey rather than the reverse. Putting scrub cattle out of court, there is hard ly anything in Australia to hunt, save the bee, which can make things un- pleasant for the hunter, for the snakes we usually left alone unless they came within reach of our stock whips, and as for the bunylp we always regarded it as black fellow bogey. But bees were often exciting and sometimes dangerous.
 I was a new chum of six months standing when I was first inveigled into the bush with bucket and an ax tc pursue the bee. It took some per suasion on the part of my mate Bill Stewart, on the Upper Murray, te induce me to brave them in their na tive wilds, for only too distinctly re membered having played the fool as child with a bee hive, a course of pro ooo13nes wkaeh natafA2ly had rssaatst

in haftshorn and the blue bag. ar gued that if such were the case with the tame, domestic, civilized bee the wild one would be infinitely worse. However, after a judiciously applied series of taunts Bill induced me to shoulder the ax and take the bucket in hand, though own I would much rather have mounted buck jumper. It seemed better to die of a broken neck than to be stung to death.
 The knowledge I possessed of the bush at the time was just sufficient to shortest notice. and 1t seemed to me that Stewart was cruelty reckless both of his own life and mine when he plunged into the thick forest and pro- ceeded to climb an almost inaccessible hill. By the time the sharp stubs of wattles had nearly torn the shirt off my back I was utterly exhausted. But presently we stayed under big gum tree, perched on a slope as steep as the roof of house, and my mate informed me that it was bee tree. He tried to persuade me that he had known of it before; but I scorned his assurances, not being able to believe that any man could find one particular tree in such forest However, we commenced cutting it down. It was the first time ever handled an ax seriously and the amount of physical strength I expend- ed in making an ugly, irregular gash in the bark would have sufficed an American from the forests of Michi- gan for a weeks work. Stewart smiled grimly, and set me aside. In about an hour it was evident the tree would soon fall, and desiring to do something serious, I took up the ax again.
 I had noticed bee come down every now and again as if to inspect our pro- ceedings, but as none of them attempt ed to attack me my confidence return ed. I began to scorn the wild Austra- ian bee, believing that its native fe- rocity had been undermined by the mild climate of its adopted country. But the tree began to shake, and bee, evidently much disturbed in mind, flew down fercely. It made three rapid circles round the trunk, and then, satisfied that was undermining the constitution of the state, flew straight in my face and stung me under the eye. I dropped the ax with loud yell, and went up hill like a kangaroo. As l started the tree gave crack and yielded. It fell with terrible crash almost on its crown, and the bees came out in wild. excited crowd I cannot understand why more did not attack us, but we cut the honey out of their hollow branch without more than three stings each. My face did not swell, but Stewards right eye closed and the left one nearly disappeared with it. If he had been rendered quite blind we should have been obliged to remain until next day, for I could not have found my way home. It took me months to,acquire, even in primi- tive way, some kind of instinct of self guidance.
 The honey that we found was of very fair quality, though it ran all shades of color, from the white new comb to the deeply stained remains of past years, and the acacia or wattle blossoms give it pleasant aromatic odor-London Field

Recently while MT Chopper, the stone cutter from Ashley Falls, was erecting 8 monument in the cemetery here he remarked that he did not get many orders from this place. The sexton replied that there was very good reason for it, as the people did not die here, for he had buried only four per- sons In three years, and three of those were brought from out of the place. It has been ascertained that about the first of April there were living in this school district (No. A twelve persons whose united ages amounted to 965 years, averaging over 80 years of age, five of whom lived within few rods of each other, namely, Mir and Mrs Edward Rockwell, Joel K Crofut, Mrs Benj. Hawley and the late B. s. Tenn, an average of over 82 years. There are also fifteen persons living in the dist rict whose ages average 65 years or more There are 30 families and about 40 inhabitants in the district. It is doubted by some whether there is another school district of the same population in the state that can eom- pare with this in the longevity of it's inhabitants.
