The EImira system

The best deeds are always done with tn,
least fuss. That is why not much trump
citing has been heard about the so called
Elmira prison system, which is auietl,
working revolution and redemption in
the penitentiaries of the country. IT.
underlying idea is not to punish a con
vict, but to keep him from doing any
more harm till he learns TO do good
Maryland and Pennsylvania have also
taken up the system and are working II
out In their state reformatories.
When a convict is sent to Elmira, he is
! first referred to physician, who ques.
tons him as to his health, parentage,
etc. Then he is passed on to the super.
intendent, who investigates his intel
iectual and moral training, habits and
occupation. With this knowledge the
ofhclals set about their work. The pris-
oner Is thoroughly cleaned up as to his
body and put to work. Thirty-two diff
ferent trades are taught in the institu-
ton. When the prisoner steps out once
more free man, he has not only a trade
but also regular habits of work, both of
which are worth more than million dol
lars to him.
Further, while he was in prison he
went to school. All the ordinary branches
are taught in the reformatory, while for
those whose intellects are better culti-
waited than their moral natures there are
higher classes in such branches as polit-
ical economy, algebra, history and phys
ical geography. A good library is at
tached. 1t is a fact that these prison
inmates publish paper regularly, all
the work of which is done by them
selves. Equal attention is bestowed ON
Their moral training. No intricate and
duh doctrinal sermons are preached, but
.ne religious teaching is simple and eth
ical' dealing with such questions as every
chiid can see the force of. In addition
well equipped gymnasium is attached
ana the men take physical culture in its
most approved form. Attendance ON
al tnese means of development and Gull
ture is compulsory
Finally, at the end of his term al.
prisoner receives part of the money be
earned during his imprisonment while
1t lasted he gradually received more and
more privileges as fast as it was proved
that he could bear them. If, now, the
system could 60 one step further and de-
stroy that cruel prejudice against prison
ers after their release, it would be perfect.

1t will be what Lucia True Ames de
picts in The New England Magazine
probably. She says the tenement house
system properly managed furnishes the
best solution of the problem of housing
the poor, and that the smallest death
rate she has found anywhere was that
in an east London tenement house.
Mrs. Ames prefers large building,
which will house from 80 to 80 families.
She would have them all supplied with
heat for their rooms from one central
plant the heat being either from hot air
or steam. She argues rightly that this
could be furnished by the owner of the
building and its expense charged in the
rent for much less money than is now paid
for fuel by the wretchediy poor as we'll
as wasteful tenants, who buy it in small
quantities and carry it up three or four
flights of stairs, leaving the halls and
steps constantly dirty and Uttered. This
proposition is self evident.
The next great reform will be to have

Here one trained cook and two assist
ants can prepare nourishing, wholesome
food much better than the tenement &C.

families for less than they pay now. By
means of dumb walters it could be con. |
veyed to every family. Thus at one blow |
both wretched cookery and the hideous
cook stove, with its dust and ashes, la
Dor making and poisonous gases, would
be eliminated from the tenement house.
Certainly the millennium would begin il
this sort of tenement house were to be
sprung upon us suddenly. So far as real
civilized needs go, the tenement house
occupant in mansion like this would be
practically as well off as the guest of

Strange indeed must that cry sound at
the little town of Jaffa, the seaport of
Jerusalem and the Holy Land. Jaffa is
the ancient Joppa of the New Testament,
and in straight line is 81 miles north
west of Jerusalem. The railroad which
has at length connected the two cities with
bands of steel is, however, SO miles long,
winding part way through a hinge waste
of sand bank, part way running across
fertile and beautiful valley land and
again climbing rugged mountain heights
Oriental superstition would not, how
ever, permit the station at the terminus
of the road to be located in the city of
Jerusalem itself, but required that IT
should be a mile away, whence the tour
list takes carriage to the Holy City. 1t
will not be long, though, till that mile
of distance is covered with houses and
ginger ale shops and peanut stands if
the railroad has its usual Weakening eff
feet on the human mind. The road was
built by French company.
Since the dawn of history this ground
over which the new road passes has been
the scene Of great events. Samson per.
formed his exploits somewhere along this
road, and it may interest Bible readers
to know that the country is still full of
foxes. From the Old Testament times
to the New, thence to the conquest of
the Saracen, then the campaign of Ma
poleon, the record of war and tremendous
events goes on without break. AS i'm.
portant, as thrilling as any, is the story
of the railroad train which at last shrieks
across the ruin and desolation and
wakens into life the sleeping centuries
of the orient.

There is very much useless discus.
sion In the press just now concerning
the appropriation for the construction
OF wagon road across the Cascade
mountains. The arguments proceed
upon the idea that the appropriation
may be usec at any one of the several
passes, as an examination NAV show to
be the most expelient, whereas the
only question is as TO the character OF
the pass north of Mount Baker, because
under the terms of the act appropriat.
ing the money the place where It Is to
oe used is designated and it cannot be
expended elsewhere. It is therefore
not question of the comparative
merits of different locations, but a
question of the wisdom of using the
money appropriated at the point
designated or not using it at all. Auv
Information which can be given con.
corning the nothern pass is proper and
very desirable, because this appropria-
tion ought to remain in the state
treasury unless its expenditure will
produce the result desired, and furnish
an outlet to the people who were desip.
mated to be benefited.

Dumas ON Husban nd Hunting.

The most scathing bit Of literature
which has appeared recently is the letter
written by Dumas the younger to 8
French girl who sent to a newspaper
complaint that she found no husband
although she had been educated fol
marriage on the most approved plan.
Dumas replies that her letter shows he,
to be utterly heartless, looking to mar.
rage only as a means of support, and on
man merely as creature designed to
maintain her in luxury when she is fit
for nothing useful on the earth
Dumas himself evidently does not GO
in very strongly for marriage. The con-
clusion of his published letter is calcu.
lated to set both girls and the mothers
who hunt husbands for them to thinking;
You don't think work is respectable. You
are mistaken. This old world of ours is eoinp
to pieces, and a new society will arise based on
equality and labor for all. Do not count OF
men, young girls; count on yourselves. Do not

represent life and are the basis of all society

way to ind a husband, If you still want one
when you amount to something, which is NOT
certain, Tor your present great desire to get
married is only the result of your education
which has incapacitated you from doing any.
thing else. Ii Is quite likely that when youl
own work has secured for you your independ.
ence men will appear in a different light tc
you, and that you will prefer to remain single
as is often the case with us men.

The new premier of the Australian
colony of Victoria, Mr.. Patterson, began
life as working1nan. ike John Burns
and is in full sympathy with industrial
progressive movements in all their forms.
1t Is something new for workingmen tc
have man from their own ranks hold
high official position, bnt it shows
what must come. 1t is said that the first
object of Mr.. Patterson will be to revive
the declining prosperity of Victoria and
TO make an effort to stop the piling up OF
any more debt. This resolution is es.
pecially gratifying to England. BY the
way, it is odd, is it rot. while the United
States is rich and prosperous and grow
ing more so as fast as any country can
that the colonies of Great Britain are
struggling with debt and seem to be
moving backward? Canada is one ex.
ample of it; India is in chronic state Of
poverty and distress-often hunger
while some of the colonies even of rich
Australia, Victoria, for instance, are in
a condition of great financial depression.

Shaving tho Renrd In Russin.

Peter the Great thought to civiliEe his
savages by making them shave and i'm
posed tax of 100 rubles on the wealthy
and middle classes and copeck on
peasants and laborers. Now it was a
superstition among the poorer people
that no beardless son of Adam could
ever enter heaven, and being obliged TO
part with their boards the great ma
jority treasured up their hairs to be
buried with their bodies. In dealing
with his soldiers the great Peter enlisted
the aid of the priests, who cunninsly
pointed out the fact that they were go
ing to fight the bearded Turk and that
their patron, st. Nicholas, would be un-
able to distinguish them from their enc
mics unless they sacrificed their boards.
This was all right, and the boards OF
the beloved Russians went down before
the razor in Difference to st. Nicholas.
But, unluckily for the priests, the next
little war happened to be with the
Swedes, who wore no boards, and thus
1t was that the Russian soldiers de
manded to be allowed to abjure the
razor, SO that the holy Nicholas might
have no difficulty in arranging for their
ection.--English illustrated Maya

Tho Scottish Hogmnny.

A satisfactory explanation of the term
"hogmany,' used by the Scots to desig.
nate the last day of the old year, has
never yet been given, but there are two
snppositions which are quite plausible.
One is that the term "hogmany" is de.
rived from "hogenot" or ''hogg night,
the Scandinavian name for the night
preceding the feast of yule, when ami
mails were sacrificed, the word "hogg'
meaning to kill. The other derivation
is from the French, Eau que menez," ''tc
the mistletoe 80" referring to the Druids
custom on New Years eve of collecting
the mistletoe from the oaks, and after
consecrating it distributing it among the
people of the Gauls, by whom it wa,
priced because of the many virtues
ascribed to it.-Exchange.
