EXPERIENCES OF PRISON LIFI
Impressions Recorded by One Who Ought
to Know.

Impressions Recorded by One Who Ought
to Know.
The most important epochs in the life
of a convict are the time of his arrival
and the moment of his departure from
prison, writes ''Debsy," in the Still
water Prison Mirror OF the first ! can
speak intelligently, of the latter from
fancy only. When the iron door of his
six-by-four cell is shut and locked upon
him and he is left free to explore his
new home, the first sensation is one of
relief. Now 1t is all over. He has
found the end. He can fall no lower,
and, as l say, there is a certain feeling
of relief in that very thought.
Strange as it may seem, his mind is,
to a certain extent, at rest. The long
strain of the trial, the tedious days and
weeks Of uncertainty and waiting are
ended, and he knows and can look
forward to definite life. He knows,
too, that here he will be carefully
watched and guarded, that mo thieves
break in and steal, that no moss will
grow under his footsteps" and that he
will be expected to ''stir" about and
make himself useful at whatever indus
try he may be employed. There are
no drones in this hive; and If he does
not do his "bit" at hard labor 1t will not
be his fault The first few days in his
new environment are aptto pass quick
ly enough providing he be novice),
for everything is so weird and strange
in his new life, and the sounds and sig
mails are so foreign to his other life that
he has no time nor breath to spare in
idle regrets and murmurs.
But then comes the reaction; he has
settled down to his mutton, and now
comes the strain. The deadly monot-
ony and sameness of it all, day in and
day out, drag and wear on the mind
and body, and then, if the system be
not in the finest physical condition, the
defect shows itself, and, fastened by
the rigid diet, the doctor will now en-
ter his life. Passing this stage success
fully, the days and weeks glide by, and
the months literally turn to years, and
soon he is beginning to count on his
fingers the months to his discharge.

art. "He is now chief deputy and can
greatly assist me-"
The contest for the appointment has
been a bitter one and Mrs. Stewart has
frequently resorted to tears of impa-
thence at the capers of the horrid men
who could not understand her claims
as quickly as she thought they should.
There is big fight on Mrs. Stewart in
the ranks Of her own party. Timid
men swear by their boards that it
shocks their modesty TO think OF
woman sheriff. Others are of the opin-
ion that it is carrying the new woman
joke trifie too far when she comes in
and picks up the latest job In the
whole county.
The Missouri law in regard to women
holding Office is vague. If Mrs. Stew
art should be elected to fill out the un-
expired term the legality of her position
would come to an issue. Mrs. Stewart
is a woman of about As, short and rather
heavy. She is good looking and INTEL

to 0. The first game between them was
won by a score even closer than that Of
yesterday.
Wyoming won the toss and gave the
ball to Lackawanna. a few minutes
of play showed that the teams were
evenly matched and that q lively con-
test was to be expected. Both teams
were fairly strong in offensive work
and about equal In defensive play.
Lackawanna excelling In around the
end play owing to good interference,
while the Seminary boys made their
largest gains by bucking the line.
Captain Lathrope's line plunging was
superior to that of any of the visitors
and really won the game. With the

bucked the centre successfully and after
some clever lodging and warding off
of several of the backs secured a clear
field, which he sprinted over too rap
idly for his pursuers and made the first
and only touchdown Of the game. He
afterwards kicked a goal. Wyoming
had the ball on Lackawanna's ten yard
line when time for the first half was
called.
In the second half the Seminary push
ed the ball down to Lackawanna's five
yard line quickly but lost on downs.
Lackawanna then worked 1t back grad
ually by line playing to Wyoming's fifty
yard line, where 1t was when time was
called.
About two hundred persons saw the
