PRISON REFORM.

The object Of the Prison association,
Of Virginia, of which Robert Stiles is
president, and Richard F. Beirne, o:
the State, is second vice-president, is
Il highly laudable one.
AS set forth IN It's constitution its
object is;
"The improvement of the govern
lnent, discipline and general manage
nent of prisons within this State.
whether under the control of State.
city, or county authorities. The
amelioration OF the condition of priS-
ouers, whether detained as witnesses,
or for trial, or finally convicted. The
encouragement and aid of discharged
convicts who exhibit any desire to re-
form and to become good citizens.
The proper treatment of criminals,
and the best means to lessen crime are
among the most vital and important
questions the State is called upon to
consider, and the large increase in
crime in Virginia in the last few years
demands that more attention should be
given the matter than heretofore.
The object of punishment among
other things is to deter the criminal
from the future preparation of crime.
Aud yet it Is one Of The most difficult
things IN the world for a convict to OBJ
tain employment at fair wages and re-
gain the confidence or the public, it
matters not how sincere he may be to
reform.
Victor Hugo, in his famous novel
Lies Miserablss," illustrates this point
very strongly in the person of the
Franchman who, being unable to
obtain work, stole a couple Of loaves
Of bread for his starving wife. He
was convicted and sentenced to work
as galley slave for number fyears.
After the expiration of his term he had
the greatest difficulty in obtaining food
and lodging as he Journeyed through
France, and though he desired to re-
form and acquired wealth with which
be was doing good, his former crime
was made the cause of his downfall,
and continued to hurt him.
To make a man, who commits a
crime once, criminal always necsss-
ari.y increases crime very largely, If
the Prison Reform Association can &C
complish anything lit matters not how
little) to prevent this it will accom-
plish good work.
THE report is sent out from New
York city that Grover Clevelanbis suf-
fering from rheumatism. 1t is now in

is an idea, to be sure; I'll be hanged if
don't try it."
Now the idea which had struck Tom
with so much force grew out of the fact
that he had been bothered to know how
he could identify his man, after he had
found where a suit of clothes of the kind
of cloth sample of which he had in his
pocket had been purchased. While re-
volving many schemes in his mind, he
had seen in the windows of a store a
number of Photographic cameras for the
use of amateurs.
The thought flashed over his mind that
he could have picture taken Of Foun-
tain, unknown to that gentleman.
Tom had friend engaged as leader
writer on the paper on which he was
employed. who had been greatly taken
by the amateur Photographic craze, and
who had become quite proficient in max
ing instantaneous pictures.
Fired with this idea Tom pushed his
way rapidly to Printing House square,
and, dropping into place which was at
once an eating house and beer saloon,
and where he was in the habit of meet
ing his Shadow, summoned a messenger
whom he sent to his friend requesting to
see him Immediately.
He looked about for his Shadow. He
was there, deeply interested in the study
of the various advertisements of the rail
road lines hanging on the walls, with a
sandwich in one hand. a mug Of beer in
the other, and one eye on Tom.
Seeing Tom nod to him. he walked
over.
"Well," said Tom, "what newsf"
"Our man"-it was one of the pecu-
Iiarities of the Shadow that he never
mentioned a name unless directly asked
for it-"Our man had a father once, but
he has been dead almost as many years
as our man has lived"
"In other words" said Tom, "the
father died when the son was young"
"When he was baby not two years
old"

"Within a month, I should imagine"

fiercely. "Men or women?"
"Pardon me-" said Holbrook coldly,
''you demand the names and informa-

The old man glared at him savagely,
but Holbrocx continued calmly:
"However. as a matter of fact, / can

made little or no impression on me, and
I answered them as l have answered

They were both men," he added.
"Both men," repeated the old man,

that they called the same day, and he

Holbrook could only assent gracefully.
The old man bade him good day and
passed out.
Your story may be true, or it may
not be: | am inclined to believe the lat
ter" said Holbrook aloud when he was
alone.
He picked up the card again and read
the name. He touched the bell which
summoned his managing clerk.
When that person entered he said:

name of George Parker?"
"Yes, that was the man who just

"What do you know about him?"

HE came for information which

him."
1T was for no good, I'll bet," replied
the clerk as he left Holbrook.

DECORATION DAP.

Last year Great Falls celebrated for the
first time Decoration day. The
war veterans made q creditable display
in numbers and organization. They paid
devotedly the honors due comrades who
fell on the battle field or have since Join.
ed the bivouac of the dead.
The address of Major Maginnis on that
occasion is remembered as a noble tribute
to the gallant Phil Sheridan, whose death
was felt as a personal loss by the union
soldiers. Major Maginnis told in simple
eloquence the early career of Sheridan
on the frontier, his sudden rise to
fame in the civil war, and the last scene
of all, when the brave soldier crossed the
dark river to JOIN the comrades who had
gone before.
The impress of that celebration re-
mains. 1t will be felt in the exercises
today, when comrades will meet inspired
by the lofty sentiments which Major Ma
ginnis expressed and instilled. They will
assemble in common with their fellow
citizens to honor the brave men who
fought for the union; to rejoice that the
bitterness of civil strife has we'll nigh
disappeared and that the great republic
proceeds on her majestic course exciting
the wonder and admiration of the world.
