CHILDREN IN PRISON CELLS.

The Baltimore grand jury in its last re-
port calls attention to an evil that af-
flicts not only that city, but great many
jailto await trial for offenses of a more or
less aggravated nat ire Even the deten-
tion of children in station house cells for
one night is reprehensiDle \ clIild's mind
is so readily accessible to Impressions,
whether good OF evil. that il cannot lie too
carefully guarded against the latter and
wherever public authority interfercs, il be-
cones its duty to take care lest harm
come to the young. For The most part, the
offenses for which children are arrested
are not so serious ast to call for close con
finenient OF the offender, nor the latter so
desperate as to render their escape from
the tolls of the law prot able. In fact, it
would lie well if policemen everywhere
were instructed to exercise a larger dis
cretion in dealing fwith youthful offenders.
II youDgster Is guilty of Some trivial in
fraction, If he trangresses against some
municipal ordinance, he should under no
circumstance be Diet ainedat the station over
the night. The parents should lie notified
at once. take the child home and made to
appear with him in the police court the
nextmurning ifthe Offense is serious enough
to warrant prosecution.
Prison cells are no fit places for children,
either as punishment or for the purpose
merely of detention. There they are with
In sight and hearing of the vilest OF men
and women. Their vision is scared with
spectacles and their ears polluted by Ian
guage that shock even an adult, and to
the mind OF the young are the raBkest
poison. If police officers, the majority of
whom are themselves fathers. could but
know how many children have been made
criminals by one night in a station house
cell they would hesitate many time be-
fore making an arrest. Placing the young
in prison, where they are thrown into
makes matters infinitely Worse. The foun-
dation Of many criminal career has there
been laid firmly and irrcmovabIy.
In such oaSes-and they should be few
and far betwcen-where it is absolutely
necessary to detain a child in prison to
await trial, or even TO keep it over light in
a police station, places should be provided
where the Young ones are kept from visual
or aural contact with the depraved and
the criminal. The responsibility resting
upon all municipal authorities in this re-
spect is too great to be lightly regarded.

wEYLER,s SUNDAY SPORT.

Fifty-one Cuban insurgents, confined In
the Cabana fortress and Morro Castle at
Havana, were shot on Sunday by order Of
Gen. Weyler. So pleased was he with this
observance of the Lords Day that he at once
sent the ne ws by cable to the Madrid gov
ernment. He has always chosen this day
for his executions, with an apparently
strong conviction that 1.-The better the day,

Fifty-one prisoners of war Killed like so

When Weyler assumed command in Cuba,
he boasted. that in a few weeks he would
have suppressed the rebellion. He has
been there months and the instruction is,
If anything. stronger and more intense Than
ever. The Spanish victories, so called,
have been mostly butchcries OF ''pacifi-
CO.'S" farm laborcrs and people generally,
men, women and children who were found
at their homes peacefully pursuing their
customary avocations. Weyler has proved
himself incapable, and as -cowardly as he
is cruel But once has he been to the
front to inspect his trocha, and even
then he hurried back because of an aE-
preaching battle with the insurgents. He
is awaiting so, coo more troops from Spain,
the island from one end to the other, and
thus crush the rebellion. This, OF course.
will prove as idle a boast as all the rest,
but mean while he will wreak his vengeance
upon such helpless prisoners as may fan
into his hands. Let it be understood that
among these may be American citizens,
and that the United St1tes government
stands calmly by and permits the slaughter
to so on without even a word of protest.
Only within the last few days the govern
ment has ordered several naval vessels to
the Levant to protect the interests OF
Amer cans IN the Turkish doininions, and,
if necessary protest them from the fury of
Moslem fanatics. Yet at our very doors
cruelties and harisaritieS are enacted every

labor of love of one of them who has been
abroad and taken pattern from women
clubs in London and New York, and fitted
up the house at her own expense Admis-
sion will be rather expensive, but no W that
the ice has been broken and the fashion
set, it is to be expected that other ..ccrcles

There should be large field of useful.
