AYLEssuHY PRISON, :



men Conviots.
England has only one prison for
female conviots. 1t is now situated
In Aylesbury, which for many
years was the general prison for
Buekinghamshire, though previous
to November, 1895, the female prison
had been at Woking for 2s years.
Tho change to Aylesbury was ne
cessitated by the requirements of
the war department, which took
over the buildings at Woking and
converted them into barracks. Mel
tbev the oonvicts nor the officials
were particularly pleased at the re-
movai, for the contrast between the
two places was marked.
The discipline for the women is
not as severe as in the mems pris
ons. In the latter absolutely no con-
versation Is permitted, but at Ayles-
bury we'll behaved women are al
lowed an hour for conversation each
day. In modern prison discipline,
punishment plays small part; in
the women's prison corporal punish
ment does not exist.
Tho great hold of the prison Off
oials over prisoners is obtained by
the mark system. A prisoner is as
keen on marks as high school girl.
BY marks she can earn higher
class in prison, as we'll as the remis-
sion Of third part of her sentence.
Thus three years penal sentence
may be worked out in two years.
This is called earning the ticket.
For the remaining year the prisoner
out on her ticket has only to report
herself every month at Scotland
Yard.
Prisoners are classed as proba-
TONERS, class 8, class and class /.
Practitioners have nine months of
solitary work in their cells; the diff
ferent classes have associated labor
for tho main part. The rules vary for
exercise-an hour daily, except for
class !, which has ~ hours. The
diet, too, is different according to
c1ass, class being the best. In class
3prisoners have tea i'll the afternoon,
but the doctor permits almost all the
women prisoners to have tea and
the two ounces of extra bread given
with it. The doctor has the right
of ordering them to the infirmary.
where the diet is often generous, in
Guiding such delioacies as chicken,
stew, rfssoles and coffee.
eeveral minor industries are car
ried ON at Aylesbury. In a large
workroom 80 women are employed
IN making suits for naval scholars
at Greenwich, the euit consisting of
blue serge blouse with large sailor
eollar and trousers. Other prisoners
mike suits Of navy serge Of excel
lent qualify for the women warders.
Others again work at making strong
bags of stiff canvas for the postotfice
In the laundry considerable mum
Der Of women arc employed. The
prisoners are anxious to have their
work admired
Other industries, such as Knitting
stockings, hand sewed liberty
shirts ito 10 worn by men sot at lib
crty) and other garments, are car
ried on by tho women in thei1 cells
Naturally they much prefer associ-
ated labor, for the propinquity of
fellow prisoners and the chance of
word to or from the matron about
the work nre blessings in prison
HE that are never despised A
small terrN Of two acres gives work
to eight women. In many cases,
open air work Is more beneficial
than any other, since it rebuilds the
constitution and appears to work
out good deal of superfuoue
naughtiness. New York Press.

A Story OF Dickens,

When I was girl of about 10
years Of age, says one of the oldest
Inhabitants Of Broadstairs, during a
dreadful winter I was sent by my
parents, who were very poor, to
Ramsgate to buy myself a pair of
strong winter boots. On my way
home tho cold was intense, and,
holding the parcel close to me,
found, when nearly at my journeys
end, that the boots bad slipped out
Of the pareal and that l only held
the brown papor in my hands.

what wxs the hurry. fold him Of
ny icps. After telling him all my
stszy, 10 tcid me to jump up with
him, ana soon we overlook the man
whom had met before. Ny good
Samaritan interrogated him very
closely, and eventually it turned out
that he had picked them up.
Charles Diokens-for it was he
who had befriended me-then said
to him, "If you had been an honest
mar, ] should have rewarded you,
but a. you are not a good horse
whipping Is what yon deserve. +" He
then turned and asked me If / had
heard OF Charles Dickens, to which
| answered "No." Then, smiling
upon me, he said. "You will hoar Of
Charles Dickens one of these days,
and you Will then bo able to tell

The Civin Reorganization of japan.
The reorganization of the whole
fabric of public administration was
enc of the first cares of tho impsrial
government after the restoration.
1t may be said in general that tAs
siin WAS TO eeta blish an sAmiaB-
trative system based as fsr ~ vrse-
ticabic upon western moae4s. Ap Q
xeceseary result, The fc~Axi iSxdh
eurTcndercd their fcfdorxs 10 ~
central government and all thefr az
ministrntive powers ana functtonH,
which had hitherto been widely 6ts-
tributed among subordinate dtgnf-
taries and officials.
Ono of the most significant
changes was the abolition Of heredf-
tary Office and the elevation Of rneA
of comparatively low rank 10 Offices
of the highest dignity and influence.
Such other changes as experience
showed to bo necessary were sdoYt-
ed from time to time, until in 1888
tho present executive systen wsr
established. 1t consists OF cabinet,
composed Of the ministers Of the
several executive departments, p~s-
sided over by tho prime ministsr,
and of privy council, which aets
III an advisory capacity. The empire
is divided into prefectnres under
governors appointed by the central
government -Toru Hoshi in Har-
