THE LAWMAKERS
Waited On by the Ladies of the Confed- erated Club in the Interest of
 the Reformatory.

The visiting members of the general assembly were waited on yesterday at the Morris by the ladies appointed by the federated clubs in the interest of the reformatory. Mrs. Zac F. Smith acted as spokesman, and the members were also addressed by Mesdames R. D. John ston. F. H. Cabaniss, and A. O. Lane Superintendent Phillips added his inf1u- enee. The honorable gentlemen receiv ed the delegation of ladies very gal lantly, and discussed the reformatory fully. The members wished to fix the age at Is at which criminals should be sent to the reformatory, while the ladies thought IS not too young. It was de- veloped that the members had already discussed a measure of similar import embodying the plan of deyoting the states property at Mount Vernon to the purposes of a reformatory. This elated the ladies very much. Mount Vernon would certainly prove a suitable spot. Ample buildings are already there the location is healthful. there is fire clay and other resources near by, and every thing is favorable. aEtN
