A County Building For convicts.


The presentment of the grand jury of
the city court brings before the people of
the county the question of the kind of a
building that should be erected for the
safe keeping and accommodation of the
chain-gang convicts Why should not a
building of a permanent character be
erected-one that would answer for the
safe keeping of the convicts when not en-
gagged on the public works of the county,
and which. at the same time, would be a
reformatory and poor house2
The old board of county commissioners
had under consideration the question of
erecting such building on the poor farm.
1t was suggested that it should be built of
brick, and that the part for which there
was the greatest need should be erected
first. The county has not the means to
erect the entire building at once, but it
could easily spare enough money each
year until the building was completed.
The first year the first story of one
wing could be built. That would au-
swer for the safe keeping of the convicts.
The next year another story of the same
section could be built and used as mess
room, or for any other purpose that was
Immediately necessary. Each year, or as
the countys funds permitted, an addi-
ton might be made in accordance with
the original plan, until the entire struc-
ture was completed.
Such building could be constructed on
improved prison plans that would permit
freedom to prisoners while in their cells
at night. The cells would not neces-
sarily be single ones, as in prisons in
tended for desperate criminals. Twenty
or thirty men could be accommodated in
one strong room.
Convicts having freedom of movement
during the night would be much better
laborers than they are under the present
system which requires that they shall be
chained in their Dunks.
1t would be almost like throwing money
away to build wooden sheds as places
for the safe keeping of prisoners, because
such buildings would. have to be erected
every few years in order to remedy the
evils of which thereis now complaint.
1t is safe to say that the present con-
Wet system of the county will
continue to exist for many years.
There will be work for able-bodied con-
victs for half a century or more 1t will
be impossible, however, to handle con-
victs much longer as they are now being
handled. They are nearly all negroes,
aud they are steadily becoming more
FESTIVE The time is not distant when il
will require large outlay for guards, un-
/ less the convicts are dealt with as con
victs similarly situated in other places.
That is, unless they are comfortably but
/ securely, confined when off duty
The county commissioners should begin
the improvement of the quarters of the
! convicts by erecting at once a structure
| that would be permanent penitentiary
and reformatory. Money spent in the
construction of good building, on the
plan and for the purpose suggested
would be well spent.

Harrison in the Ring.
From the Boston Herald lind

Benjamin Harrison appears to have def
nitely decided what ought to be done with our
ex-Presidents, at least so far as he is CON
cerned. His speech before the Indiana re-
publican convention unfolds his programme
for the immediate future. He will hold him
self in readiness to discrsS the issues of the
campaign before his fellow-cttzens Of In
diana, and is prepared to take the stump for
that purpose This is interesting, not only as
indicating the ideas of a former occupant of
the highest office in the gift of the people as
to how he ought to conduct himself, but also
as revealing his future aspirations

sorrowfully seeking Susan. Suddenly spy

slouched slowly, stealing sunfowers, scar

Sam seized several, swallowed seven,

Sweet Sarah sauntered slowly. Seeing
Sam so seasck, she said:
"Susan, sprinkle some smelling-salts."
She sprinkled some salts, singing sweet
songs. "Sam survives" spake Susan.
She sobbed silently. Sam said:
"Susan, stop sobbing."
She stopped, shivered, sneezed sud-

Somewhat startled, Susan said:
"Sweet Sam. sing some sad Sunday

kept alive the old shark-hunting custom
of the early kings of Hawaii. In former
days it was the custom of royal sports
men to go to sea in their war canoes or
catamaran, taking along n large bowl of
chopped enemies. This bowl was placed
over the water, and fragments Of hashed
Kanaka were thrust through hole in the
bottom Of the bowl, thus attracting schools
OF man'eating sharks. When the sharks
became thick around the boats native
king would dive in among them, knife in
hand, and, coming up under the school,
would stab one as he arose. This is one
Of the things that Kohana Maka does in
these days. There will be no sharks in
the little lake within the Hawaiian en-
closure at the Midwinter Exposition, but
there will be ample room for diving and
for Kohana and other great swimmers to
exercise. -Four women and three men,
all experts, form the little company Of
swimmers, headed by Kohana Maka.
They will not only illustrate the wonder
full aquatic feats for which the islanders
are famous, but they announce them
selves as ready to meet all corners in any
form Of aquatic sport.

til lust above ones head! There is a
winnowing sound in the flight OF the
chickadee which recalls the rusting noise
OF the humming- birds wings, or the night
moth lowering over flowers, in the far
away antipode Of the season. Responsive
to this sweetest note heard in all winter
dom come the terse staccato "yah, YAH"
Of the fellowshiping nuthatches. This
sharp note, sounded from SO many
different places, might be paralleled by
the going off Of firecrackers, one after an
other, here and there, at random.
The Delineator for January commences
q new volume and is called the winter
Holiday Number. 1t is an unusually
attractive issue, tho fashions being appro-
pirate to the season, and the reading
matter varied and interesting. The dis
tinct holiday flavor is contributed by a
helpful article entitled What the Shops
Show, and another reviewing the books
issued for the holiday season. House
hold Renovation deals with the cleans
ing Of various articles and gives valuable
information about cleansing fluids. Child
Life treats of training boy for business,
and Physical Culture continues the in
struction given last month on the Ply
steal expression Of the emotions. Small
Economics is a particularly seasonable
and valuable article ut this time and one
that will be OF service to every house,
keeper; and much may be gained from
the second paper OH Things That should
be Left Unsaid. An illustrated article on
House and Street Gowns is of general in
terest to ladies', and another appropriate
to the times is Fir Sets and Trimmings.

Chinese Squadron at the Mercy Of
Japanese at Port Arthur.


SHANGHAI, Nov S.-The report Of the
capture OF Talenwnn by tho japanese has
not been confirmed. The reports have
been confirmed, however, that the Jap
nnese are steadily rcpulsing detached
bodies of Chinese, and that they have
taken Port Kinchau. The japanese force
that landed on Oct % north OF Elliot isl
anu first marched eastward. probably to
intercept the army OF General Sung.
which was retreating from Fung- Wang
Ching They then turned westward to-
ward Talienwaen, advancing five miles
daily.
Thes reputation of tho japanese for
humanity and for paying for their sup
plies Is doing them immense services.
CONSERVATION has been caused by the
discovery that the Pei Yang squadron
has been caught in trap at Port Arthur
by the Japanese, owing Co the neglect or
oveuuling of LII Hung Chsng's orders.
