Moslem and Jew believes in a heaven
and hell. There are all shades, grades
and varieties of faith in these two con-
ditions, from the material pit of ever
lasting fire to the golden streeted city
of eternal harp playing. The believers
in Christ believe in life beyond, because
He tells them land now | 60 to Him
that sent me-" Some believe in the fiery
furnace for unmitigated sinners; some
believe in transitional purgatory as a
quarantine station for suspects; some
believe in immediate judgment and
others believe in final parade. But
all such beliefs are frills. The
teachings of the Master show very
plainly that frills will not count if the
garment is not of the right material.
Those who have honestly cut their
coats out of the cloth of brotherly love
and consequent service to God are prom
ised sure and satisfying recompense.
What the surroundings and conditions
are to be none care, since it will be one
of unalloyed happiness begotten of per-
feet knowledge.

A Man, Though a Convict.

A marked copy of the Nebraska State Journal
of Oct. % informs us of the gallant conduct of
Frederick Pulver, confined in the penitentiary
at Lincoln A fire was raging in the prison and
had attacked the engine room where he was on
duty attending the pumping engine. The Journal
says: His conduct in exposing himself to dan
ger by staying at his post of duty while the roof
burned over his head that the engine might fur
nish water for the fire apparatus not allowed
to pass unnOticed. General j. r. Webster, ba>-
ing his action on the facts, Immediately drew up
apetitiOn for Pulver's unconditional pardon
This strongly marks that view of convict life
which THE MIRROR wishes to present, a convict,
yet man. There may be some so vile, treach-
erOus and despicable as to be beyond reforma-
ton; but, rightly handled, the blacklist soul
amongst them may be illumined to good and
noble acts.

card playing and dice shaking in sa-
looms. This last provision provoked a
hot discussion, many of the members
inclining to the opinion that saloon
would not be much of a resort without
dice and cards. The author of the ordi-
nance declared, however, most emphat-
ically that no greater evil menaces the
city.
We have had some considerable ex-
perience among the prisoners confined
here during the four months of our
editorial work. We can honestly say
that so per cent. of those spoken with,
have laid their beginning of criminal
life to card playing and dicing in sa-
looms. Many crimes entailing violence
for which men are suffering here were
done immediately after or during a
gambling bout in saloon. Calmly re-
viewing the past, we can see our own
dOwn-hill career from wealth, honor
and responsibility, begin in game of
hearts in a fashionable saloon, to which
we had resorted for glass of lemonade.
The municipality that allows any form
of gambling in saloon, even shake
for the drinks, is committing an almost
objectionable crime against society. \
man goes in, gets drink and starts to
go out; some one challenges him to a
game of cards or shake of the dice.
Unless there is strong will this leads
to the loss of time and money and ends
in probable drunkenness. Remove these
snares and half of crime is scotched.

The assassination of Mayor Harrison

The Belle PLANE Herald derived from
THE PRISON MIRROR the fact, probably
not known to one thousand people in
the United States, that ACKNOWLEDGMENT

but not mutilation. 1t further garbles
the facts concerning the lately reported
execution in Afghanstan, by stating
that the sepoys were blown from the
guns by the English government. They
were not. The Afghans are entirely
independent of British rule and the ex-
ecution was ordered by the Amer.
The English only used that true bar
barity' during the Mutiny of 1878 to
put stop to murders of sentinels by

The Preston Times wants to know
wherein it has failed to give THE MIR
ROR credit for matter taken from it's

some philosophers in the Saltwater
prison. Here is how one of them spec
ulates on how this earth of ours came
into existence" Then gives, without
even quotation marks, an article from
our weekly omnibus. Who of all it's
readers would know that that was not

are still alive and kicking against hard

The scissors sharp who controls the

excessive critic has evidently fellow
feeling for sloth, senatorial or other

The Immortality of the soul is no
mere Hebraic theory adopted into latter
day theology. Modern research and
discovery have shown it to be the prin-
ciple upon which religion was based at
about the same time, in many parts of
the world, by divers people. The tradi-
tons and sculptured histories of North
America, Mexico, Peru, Chaldea and
Egypt of old, and of China and the
Hindoos of to-day, recognize death as
transition from here to hereafter. All
civilized and most savage nations and
tribes look upon life here as the prepar-
atory school for the life beyond the river
of death. Some sages, it is true, of all
ages, many scientists and most of the
criminal and immoral classes of civili-
zatiOn, as we'll as the savage barely
raised above the brute, do not believe
in soul or life beyond the grave.
The cause is plain. Humanity speaking,
it is reasonable to take thought for
the morrow. If there is morrow
to time, man should in reason con-
slider it. To decide that the crimes
and immoralities of the present could
be indefinitely continued in the future
would be an illogical deduction too
absurd for reason to contemplate. All
who continue in wilful sin would be
cOnfessing to temporal folly did they
admit of a hereafter. Moreover, the
scientific and agnostic unbelievers must
know everything; belief is word not
permitted to their logic. AS all things
beyond deaths shadowy valley are i'm
possible of knowledge, therefore, must
death be the end. Mysteries of the past
which they can not fathom are fables.
present faiths and hopes for the future
are superstitiOus visions. Yet, to tell
one of those intellectual giants he was
no more than hog, dog, mule or ape to
rot and decay would be to anger him.
Did you tell him that he, like the tons
OF Egyptian mummies already worked
over, was but cabbage manure he might.
if tfuely philosophical, tell you there
was no end to matter. If matter is i'm
perishable surely the spiritual essence
of the Creator of matter must also be-
TO those not willing to be classed
with the brutes that perish, death is but
the gate of life. What, then, is beyond :?
Here, Faith and Hope must be our
guides. The human brain with all it's
magnificent abilities can not invade the
unknown land. The Hindoos believe
in transmigration of the soul to a
higher or lower sphere of action accord
ing to the fulfillment of the duties of
time. BY their faith the drunken sot
shall be hog and the libidinous brute
a low-lived cur. The Christian and
