A PRISONERS HOME.


A home for discharged prisoners,
where temporary employment and
permanent friendship may be found
by the man just released from prison,
has recently been opened in Boston,
The idea is not altogether new, even
in this country, but there are COM
paratively few places of the kind and
the successful establishment of the
one in Boston deserves to be noted
and it's progress watched. There are
seventy such homes in England and
fifty in France, but up TO the present
time it must be admitted that we are
rather behind Europe in this particu-
lar, advanced though our penal
methods are. The Prisoners Aid
association of this state is step in
this direction, and we mention the
Boston home in order to call attention
to the practical possibilities of the
kind of work which it has undertaken.
The Boston work was begun about
two years ago by discharged pris
oner, as a personal enterprise, and
has developed into an institution to
be known as the John Howard Indus
trial home 1T is non-sectarian, but so
favorably has it's work become known
in religious circles that several lead
ing clergymen in Boston are interest
ed in it's progress and assisted at its
formal opening. The prisoners are
visited before their terms expire and
are invited to make their headquar-
ters at the home, unless they have
other plans or homes of their own to
go to. Work is provided for them
during their stay and it is intended
to introduce broom-making as a regu-
lar industry. While the home has
been made self-supporting by the
efforts of the men who have found it
a refuge, it is believed that larger
enterprise will increase its possibili-
ties of usefulness.
The purpose of these associations
and homes is to place the prisoner
under wholesome and natural condi-
tons for the first weeks of his free
dom. The most thoroughly reformed
frowned upon by society
and regarded with suspicion, is nat
lrally thrown back upon his old COM
panions, even though it is against his
wish. In these circumstances he
falls as naturally into the old ways
and before long is again on trial for
crime, with criminal record behind
lim. The temporary home insures
MIN against this and assures him that
here is one place where, even in
he is sure of sympathy
and friendship. It not only provides
he immediate employment SO salu-
AIRY Jor one in his position, but it
opens way for a return to respect
able conditions by means Of regular
at a distance from the
scene of his offense. It is essentially
he extension of the reformatorv idea,
which is now the central idea in all
advanced penal institutions, and is
worthy of commentator and of

LATE SPORTING NOTES.

Apropos TO the collegiate aquatic chat
comes the news hat Mr.. Edwin Gould,
a Columbia alumnus of the class of 'SS,
has subscribed SIS, 600 for the purpose of
erecting a model boat house for the wear
ers of the blue and white. The Edwin
Gould Boat House, as the building will
be called, will be situated at the foot of
West IN Hundred and Fifteenth street.
IL will be a two-story building, SO by 81
feet, and will have the entrance through
the second story over a bridge crossing
the New Work Central g. Hudson river
Railroad tracks.
The general style, es designed by archi-
tect Harry c. Pelton, Columbia 'S9, Will
be colonial with a classic front.
Mr.. Gould's gift is most %opportune and
work on the house will be commenced at
once so that it will be sufficiently advanced
to enable the crew to occupy it when they
first go on the water in the spring.

o PROPERTY.
Legal Limits of Its Holdings Is Too
Small,

BosToN, Feb. 4.-Charles T. Gallagher

Increase in the Mount of property which
the master, warden and members of the
Grand Lodge of Masons may hold. He
stated that the law now permitted them
to hold $3.50, 600 in personal property.
The Masonic Temple property was worth
$3.50, 900, and the lodge had $4,000 OF FER
sonal property. IL they rebuild on the
present site or even elsewhere the build
ing would be worth about u, 800, 900. Mr..
Gallagher stated that it is through no
fault of their own, they have more prop
erty than the law allows. The INCREASE
i'm valuation of the property during the
years it has been held being the ssole rea-
son for its excess over the legal amount.
