GREAT ADVANCE IN PENoLoGYl

The science OF penology is making
rapid strides these days. Charles Dud-
ley Warner has discovered that the
best means Of elevating the youthful
criminal Is by a strap about the wrists,
with accompanying padding. Bishop
Potter has discovered that high moral
ideas are best inculcated Through the
hide" and now comes the esteemed
Sun with another discovery that goes
to the bottom of the whole matter and
teaches society how radically wrong has
always been its method of dealing with
offenders against its rules.
Brutality of discipline, such as is for
hidden in the case of regular felons In
State prisons, is necessary. The Sun
says. in the Elmira Reformatory. an
institution devoted entirely to the most
dangerous class. the youthful adult
felons, men below the age of thirty. the
period OF h criminals life when he COM
inits crimes of violence, acts upon his
fierce impulses and hears no voice OF
reflection or judgment"
At last, then, the enigma Is solved
The whole trouble has been that ever
since the Elmlra Reformatory was
founded we have been considering the
young men sent there az civilized and
reasonable beings. Because they were
all first offenders, young clerks who had
yielded to temptation, spoiled sons who
had lacked paternal control, lads led
astray for once by unfortunate associa-
tions, boys of the street. driven by hun
ger to petty theft, we have taken II for
granted that they were worth saving
that they needed guidance and encour-
agement, rather than punishment We
have thought to lead them by kindly
treatment to higher plane in life and
especially to save them from the fatal
brand of State prison.
But at last we are set right. These
boys and young men upon whom we
have wasted SO much trouble are, to
quote The Sun, "a savage class OF
felons," needing much more severe pun
ishment' than convicts in ordinary pris-
ons. 1t Is the good. kind. easily man
aged, nice old habitual criminals who
should have had our pity and our help,
and not these youthful adult felons,"
who, having committed but one ofrense,
are bloodthirsty for more.
Let this immemorial wrong be righted
at once!
Sing Sing, Auburn and desolate Dame
mora for the savage class OF felons'
who have too long monopollzed our kind
ness. For the professional thieves, bur
glars, highwaymen, murderers. prisoners
and wife-beaters. the peace and JOY OF
Elmira and Brockway!

TOOK POISON IN THE STREET.

Florence Jones, a pretty young girl

How is it that none OF the many champions OF

girls is the place they live in (Hoboken), which
Is a much abused city, and in some cases per-

THE BAY MAY HIDE HER SECRET
Mother of the Battery Wait Has
Quietly Disappeared.
Mrs. Hartmann TO Adopt the Child,
who Is Now Hortense Fitch"

Did the mother, who is described as a
pale young thing" who left a baby
girl on bench in Battery Park Satur-
day night, go back to the struggle for
life or did she go on and out to the rest
Of the waters beyond the end of the city
and TO the end Of the world, for her,
where she stood?
She was seen pacing the sea wall,
weeping, with the baby clasped to Ter
breast. Later the baby was found, but
no one saw the young woman leave the
spot She may have gone uptown or may
have jumped into the bay.
The baby itself. as 1t lay in a crib al

Charities and Correction, this morning
about three weeks old. Its clothing is
neat and clean, but ,s thought to have
been worn by another baby previously:

girl. lie had her sent to the Old slir
station, and thence she was transferred
TO Police Headquarters, where Matron
Trayers took charge OF her.
When Mr.. Hartmann reached home his
wife chided him for not having kept the
child. They talked II over until by 3

lie told her that she would have to go
through the routine of applying for the
child, being vouched for and having her
character examined before the city
would turn over its ward to her.
Mrs. Hartmann says that she Will
qualify, ana there Is no doubt that she
can, and will take the baby for keeps.
This morning the youngster was trans.

DEATH BEATS THE BRIDAL.
Cleveland Fireman Passes Away
While Hi- Sweetheart Waits.
(Dy Associated Preas.)


CLEVELAND. o., Oct. 1.-The steamer
State of New York, lying at the wharf
here, took fire last evening, and among
the first to respond to the alarm was
Hook and Ladder Company No. /.
AS the truck rounded a corner William
Hciser was thrown off and a wheel
passed over his body, crushing his chest.
He was taken to the hospital. and when
informed that he could not live he
summoned his sweetheart, Annie McGit-
trick to whom he was to have been mar
rief in month.
The dying fireman, who could scarcely
speak above whisper, expressed a wish
to make Annie his wife before he died.

AS the ceremony was about to begin
the injured man lapsed into uncOu-

turn of reason, but in vain. He felt the
patients pulse and announced to those
at the bedside that Heiser was dead.

" BITES" ON THE BEAUTIFUL SHORE.

A Memphis man, who had sense
enough during his lifetime to accumulate
fortune and become President of a
bank. besides attaining to diverse civic
distinctions, died "A week ago, and
directed in his will that "a line and "A
few hooks" be placed in his coffin in
order" he said. that IL there Is any
fishing in the other world j will be pro-
vided with tackle to enjoy the sport
which has afforded me much delight in
the present mode of existence"
We hope the gentleman will find lots
of good fishing on the shining shores.
That his thoughts should have turned to
angling in his moribund moments is a
charming metaphysical illustration Of
his idea OF what heaven ought to be-.
Whether he wanted the crystal Col"s-
tial rivers to TEEN with spccklcd trout
or striped bass, or the mighty muskal-
longe. nobody knows, but that he hoped
for a bite " over there" is certain. May
the finny darlings bite gloriously! And
may he have a splendid string Of them
at the end of every golden day, so that
he will not have to buy them at some
fish market, on the way home!
Fishing-tackle is n good thing to take
along when man quits this world, but
he ought to be pretty sure Of the fishing
before he adds rod reel and line to his
funeral accessories. The hereafter does
not abound with fishing grounds. II the
orthodox geography OF 1t is all right.
there are some places in the life be
You'd" where there is no fishing, and the
rivers are not frozen over, either.

Don't double your demands for salary when
a fat part helps you to one hit.

all ripe raw fruits except bananas;
stewed dried fruits, fried or baked
banans and apples, wine lime Juice,

You would love him. love him ever.

And where is his gentle sister.
