PARADISE FOR CRIMINALS.
Live in the Open Air ia Com parative
Freedom.

Freedom.
correspondent writing from italy
gives some interesting details OF the
treatment of prisoners on various
Italian islands he visited while on a
trip in the Mediterranean, says Lon
don Tid-Bits. Each of these islands
contains several hundred prisoners,
who are locked up every night at sun
set. released at daybreak and locked
up again from midday until g O'Clock.
During the night no prisoner is al
lowed to be absent under any circum-
stances. but at midday those who work
on farms at distance from the prison
are allowed to remain out by special
permission Of the director. During
these free hours the prisoners can go
anywhere they like on the island and
can engage in any work offered them
by the townspeople or farmers. Any
infraction OF the rules OF ordinary life
ished by seclusion i'm special cells.
The government furnishes physicians
and medicines summer and winter
suit OF clothes to each prisoner every
year and allows him fivepence daily in
money for his food and other neces-
saries of life. Danger of escape is pre-
vented by a squad of soldiers-one to
every ten criminals-and a swift-sail-
ing felucca, manned by marines. On
account Of the cheapness of labor the
islands are so highly cultivated as to
resemble gardens. The correspondent
adds las for the prisoners, the open
air makes them the healthiest of any
criminals | have ever seen. There is
no sign in their faces and bodies OF
that prison blight which strikes every
visitor to ordinary jails."
