last. The members of the party were
shown all parts of the prison under
the personal guidance of Warden VOL
fer They had chance to study prison
life in every phase, seeing the men in
the shops at work, in their cells at
rest, and in the dining room at the tri-
daily occupation that requires no ur-
ging. After partaking of dinner the
party left for the twin cities with some
practical additions to their store of
sociological knowledge. We give be-

One of our tall, well-built inmates
who may be seen any morning at break
fast time carrying respectfully large
lunch can towards the hospital had a
very economical streak on last Satur-
day morning. In the kitchen he saw
Tor should have seem kerosene lamp
in a gas fixture burning long after it's
light was of any use In compliance
with his economical instinct he says:
''GuesS we do not need that light any
longer" at the same time shutting off
the button which would have extin-
guished the gas had it been such an
illuminant. He looked at the lamp
still burning brightly which seemed to

An extraordinary case of what would
appear to be a supernatural punish
ment has just occurred at HOLSTER
California. Joe Pincado, Portuguese
who had been arrested on suspicion of
killing comrade was in the district
attorneys office being closely examined
as to his whereabouts at the time Of
the murder. He had made some dam
aging admissions and being greatly
excited stood up in a tragical attitude
with hands aloft and said: MAY God
strike me dead if l am guilty. Like an
answer to his appea! his frame shook
and he fell to the floor dead. All the
Portuguese in the vicinity feel that he
received just retributiOn from the hand
of God.

In our next issue we will publish the
first of two articles on "The Young
Man In Business" from the pen of
Edward w. Box, editor of The Ladies'
Home Journal. Mr.. Box, though at
the head of the leading magazine of
this country, did not chill us with a
stereotyped refusal when requested to
contribute an article to the The MIR
ROR. With his copy he sent very
courteous personal letter commencing
our good work, also authorizing the
use of his name to the articles thus
contributed.

I believe that is all that the average

Never tell man in prison that there |
is no time like the present If he is
only starting in on a ten-year sentence
he is apt to believe there will be quite
quantity of time just like it.
Many aspirants to literary fame are
forming bad habit long INDUCED in

sentences too long and clumsy. A long
sentence is always hard to parse
whether it is in words or years.
