ALGERNON CHARLES SWIM
BURNE.

1t is probable that the London press is
mistaken i'll its hasty conclusion that
ALGERNON CHARLES SwINBURNE will
be appointed poet laureate of England,
to succeed TENNYSON. There are sew
eral considerations which initiate
against SwINBURNE's availability for
this post, chief amongst which is the
fact that he is decidedly a persona non
grata to the royal family of Russia and
to the institution OF royalty in general,
except in its mild and circumscribed
British form. SwINBURNE is violently
hostile TO absolutism. He recently pub
lished a poetical brochure directed
against the cZar, which was rabid and
almost anarchistic in its vehemence.
The British crown would hardly care to
increase the already acute tension
of its relations with Russia by such
a gratultous personal affront to
the car as would be implied IN the Sc
lection of SwINBURNE as poet laureate.
Moreover, Sw1NBURNE has long cher
ished and frequently expressed bitter
hostility toward GLADSTONE. As the
latter, acting for the crown, has the ap-
pointing of the new laureate, it will re-
quire great exercise of his proven bal
magnanimity to bestow the honor on
his enemy.
1t may be, however. that in recogni-
ton Of SwINBURNE's indisputably fore
most claim from a purely literary
standpoint, Mr.. GLADSTONE will waive
both his own and the cZar's personal
objections, and adorn SwINBURNE with
the garland so nobly worn by WORDS
WORTH and TENNYsoN. Certain it is
that of all contemporary English poets
SwINBURNE is the only one even meas
urablY qualified to wear that laureate
wreath with becoming grace and dig
nifty.

PRISON SUNDAY.
Suggestions for Sermons to Be
Preached Oct. 23.

Suggestions for Sermons to Be
Preached Oct. 23.
The state board of corrections and
charities has prepared the following
letter, a copy of which will be mailed to
every clergyman in the state. 1t is in
reference to "Prison Sunday" which
was so generally observed in all the
churches last year. and is as follows:
Reverend and Dear Sir: Sunday Oct %,
has been set apart as Prison Sunday" ana
the clergy OF the state are requested to OBJ
serve the same by some appropriate service.
We believe that the prison Sunday services
which have been held in Minnesota during
the past five years have been very beneficial.
The following suggestions are respectfully
offered:
First-That each clergyman visit, before
Oct. % the county jail and city or village
lookup i'll his own town,ln order that he may
judge for himself of the tendencies of these
institutions as at present conducted.
Second-That each clergyman preach
sermon on the subject of prisons and prison
reform on the 23d day OF October If the
service be held in the evening it can be an
nounced at the morning service. In many
cases il may be found advantageous to hold
union service of several churches. with
platform meeting addressed by different per-
sons, either laymen or clergymen.
Third - That where such sermon are
preached an extract from the same be pub
lished in one or more of the local papers.
Fourth-1f this be done, it will be favor
if copy of such paper e sent to Secretary
II. Ii. Hart, of this board at st. Paul.
The secretary of the state board of correc-
tions and charities will cheefully furnish. on
application, tree of charge. such reports and
documents as will be of assistance i'll prepar.
ing such a discourse. The report of the state
board of corrections and charities, covering
all of the county jails and lock-ups of the
state, will also be furnished on application.
The following references are suggested: Ar
ticle on prison Discipline in Encyclop9-
dia Britannica, Chambers and Johnsons
Cyclopedias. See also Appleton's Annual
Cyclop9dia for 1887. page 70l.
Two important steps in prison re5orm have
been taken in this state during the past year:
First the establishment of the conditional
pardon system Ill the state prison by Gov.
Merriam, which carries with il the grade and
marking system i'll the prison, and has al
ready produced marked improvement in
the disposition and conduct of the prisoners;
second. the appointment of Col. Clark Cham
bers, of o Owatonna, TO assist discharged pris-
oners i'll finding employment. This work
has already been productive Of much good.
In sending for reports please state what
you already have, that we may avoid send

requesting permission to examine from

BOYD'S ESTIMATE.
New York Will Give Cleveland
10000 Plurality.

CHICAGO, Oct. 7.-'New York will go
Democratic by $4,000. That is my honest
opinion, and Pm not saying this just to
hear myself talk" said Gov. James E.
Boyd, of Nebraska, at the Grand Pacific
today. Gov. Boyd reached Chicago from
New York last night, where he went to
see the leaders of the party and discuss
the situation. He had few hours talk
with Cleveland. interviewed Messrs.
Whitney, Croker, Sheehan and others,
and delved into the situation quite
deeply. Mr.. Cleveland is more
confident this year than he was in 1888,
and is satisfied the people are with the
Democrats. There is no question that
harmony reigns in New York as it has
never reigned before. A wave of in
dignation swept over this country and
almost swamped the Republicans two
years ago, and that indignation has by
no means subsidized.
'When such men as MacVeagh and
Gresham leave the Republican party,
it sets the people to thinking. They
know it is not hostility to Harrison that
causes them to leave the party Mr..
Gresham has many friends that will go
with him; so has Mr.. MacVeagh."
