Saved BY His Boy.

A ~ year old child saved his father from
going to the penitentiary the other day.
The father had been arrested on complaint
of his wife for abuse and neglect. He was
addicted to drink. and his family had been
made to suffer all the mseries which that
habit entails. On being brought before the
police magistrate that officer was inclined
to give him the punishment which the law
provides. The wife began to relent and
beg the magistrate to be lenient for this
time Seated on chair near by was the
little boy. apparently engrossed in admir-
ing the cuts in newspaper he was holding
upside down. The magistrate, after men,
tally resolving to give the man another
chance turned to the boy and said: what
do you say my lad; shall | send your father
to the penitentiary?" The little fellow
lifted his big blue eyes from the paper.
gazed at the group in an inquiring way, dnd
then. in deliberate manner and with all
the dignity of judge on the bench he said:
Il wouldn't do that" The father was re-
leased at once. -AlbNpy Argus.

Good Words From California.

There is no subject that shonld be more
carefully looked after than prison reform,
or to make it more plain. the reformation
of those who have by some act become in
mates of the prison. We have in this coun-
try some few philanthropsts who give this
matter attention. and yet there is a field for
great deal more work i'm that direction
than is being done. There is no heart that
is entirely callOus to all affection or if not
affection at least that interest that makes
one feel, no matter how stepped in crime,
that there is some person who cares for
them. and although they may be incarcer-
ated between dark walls to pay the penalty
of crime they have not been entirely forgot
ten by their fellOwmen. We have just been
reading All account of Christmas dinner
given the inmates of the Minnesota peni-
Tertiary and the good feeling and the CRATE
full acknowledgements of these unfOrtu-
nates.* X \ There is no penitentiary in
the broad land that is so well and humanely
conducted as that in Minnesota, and we
venture the assertion there is no other in
stitutiOn of the character that sends out so
many of it's inmates reformed men and wO-
men who lived down the misfortune that
has befell them. Kindness is one of the
best refOrmers on earth and those who are
thus kindly and considerably treated can
not help but to become better.-The Lake
County (Cal. Avalanche.

any preference is to be shown by the
philanthrOpically inclined, it should be to
women who have fallen rather than to men.
At present the reverse is in vogue; there
are people who will gladly help a man to
rise from his degraded condition. but if
women applies for help for like purpose
she is cOldIy received-if received at all
and the most that is ever done for her is
the giving of large dose of that cheap
tonic-gOOd advice.
Very often we notice that the reports de-
failing the falling from grace of man are
headed "A Woman in the Case" Where
will you see similar excuse or palliating
circumstance mentioned when a woman
commits a crime? 1t is decidedly wrong to
condemn women to life of infamy simply
because they have committed a single mis-
deed, while men may commit crimes daily
and still be received by the world with open
arms. Women should be given the same
opportunities as men have to regain what
they may have lost by past fOllies. Until
the oppressive yoke of. social ostracsm is
taken from the necks of women who have
sinned it will be impossible for them-nO
matter how great their efforts-tO cleanse
their character of the stain that is i'm many
instances. caused by the very persons who
are lOudest in derding them. RoNDA.

Like bubbling spring which constantly

so is Hope to the human heart. Each day

trustworthiness. We all despise traitor;
yet we are traitors who have betrayed the
confidence of our neighbor by despoiling
him of his legitimate rights. But in such a
course we are the greater sufferers. for we
lose all the real sweets of life, which are
self conscious integrity, respect of our fell
low beings and the doing of good to Others
So while we are here in prison where we
realize the full worth of liberty. let us plan
how we may retain it when it is again in
our possession rather than how we may de-
prive others of rightful possessions. Let
us prepare for liberty and not imprson-
ment and then when we are free we will be
free indeed.

The state prison at Deer Lodge. Mont,
is greatly overcrOwded at present. and the
management is perpleXed with the question
of what to do with the output OF the spring
courts. If Montana had a parol law, as
every state should, it could exercise it now
to good advantage. Under a wisely ad
ministered parOl law it would be many
years before additional prisons would be
necessary; the cost of maintenance would
be greatly reduced; and large number of
men now being worked in prisons at loss
to the state might be outside earning their
own living and in many cases supporting
their families who are being made the
greater sufferers by the imprisonment of
their natural providers. 1t is true that
some families are better off by the absence
of the husband. but there are many who,
left destitute, are dependent on begrudged
charity. Everybody deplores such result
