hYLESBURY PRISON.
Il Is the Only One England Has For wo
men Convicts.

e rs tile Only One England Has For wo-
men Convicts.
England has only one prison for
female convicts. IT is now situated
in AylesJury, which for many
years was the general prison for
Buckinghamshire, though previous
to November, 1896, the female prison
had been at Woking for % years.
The change to Aylesbury was me-
cessitated by the requirements of
the war department, which took
over the buildings at Woking and
converted Them into barracks. Nei-
thcr the oonyicts nor the officials
were particularly pleased at the re-
moyal, 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-
versltion is permitted, but at Ayles-
bury well behaved women are al.
lowed an hour for conversation each
day. In modern prison discipline,
punishment plays a small part; in
the women S prison corporal punish
ment does not exist.
The great hold of the prison Off
oials over prisoners is obtained by
the mark system. A prisoner is as
keen on marks Ms high school girl.
BY marks she can earn a higher
class in prison, as we'll as the remis-
sion of Il third part of her sentence.
Thus a 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.

And round her still the SHOWS shall sweep

TEA TARIFFS
Dealers Who Sold Short in Fear Of
Ruin

Ruin
DUBUQUE, Iowa, May 24-The whole
sale grocers of Iowa, who have been
caught on the, short side of tea, have
sent a delegation to Washington to see
what Senator Allison can do for them
Before the tariff Of ten cents pound on
tea was publicly suggested by the Sen
ate committee. these grocers sold for
future delivery in such quantities that
one Chicago house stands to lose $780,
900 If compelled to furnish taxed tea,
and Iowa houses will also lose heavily.
The importers have discounted the fu-
ture and have sold their stocks at lib
eral advance of former prices. One Chi
cago and New York house is reported
to have cleaned up $250,000 and other
importers are supposed to have done
equally we'll. The grocers tried to cover,
with the result that the demand for i'm
mediate shipment raised prices in ia
pan 71z cents. Some of the grocers,
rather than stand this, decided to coun.
termand their orders and take their
chances Of securing a modification of the
tariff bill
The delegation, sent to Washington
was appointed at conference in Chi
cago last week and Is headed by F. A..
Hancock Of Dubuque. They will ask
that the tariff bill be amended to pro-
vide for rebate of the tax on tea order
ed imported before the bill was reported.

MuNHALL ON "HELL"
The Evangelist, Tells Of the Fate Of
the Sinner


Another large audience assembled in
Simpson tabernacle last night to hear
DR.. Munhall discuss the subject of
Hell He spoke from John. iii:16:
For God so loved the world that he
gave his only begotten son
that we might have eternal life"
That has provided at infinite cost a
way of escape for us. MY first question
tonight is. Is there hell? The speaker
read from the Old and New Testaments
different passages which spoke Of hell
as a place Of torment. "The wages OF
sin is DEATH" "The soul that sinneth
it shall de- f.
My second question. what kind Of a
place is he'll? This book says it is n
place where there is gnashing Of teeth
and torment-a place where he shall rain
birthstone in his wrath on the inhabi-
tants thereof 1t is fearful thing to
fall into the hands of the Living God.
Is the punishment everlasting? The
word used to qualify God as everlasting
and that which qualities punishment as
everlasting are the same-and If the
punishment is Eot everlasting, then is
God not eternal. and ths hope Of the
world is void.
My friend. I love you. and as you can
lose nothing by accepting Christ in this
life, but will gain everything in the
world to come, entreat you to be recon-
ciled to God. This is the message God
had given me to you tonight.

THE HEMITE MINING DISTRICT
A Prosperous Camp Near San Jacinto

have a bond issue there could be no
objection to such course.
This statement was received with ap-
plause 1t knocked all bitter feeling ou:

One protest after another was read,
and the signers were called on to give
their reasons. Scores Of brief speeches
were made. All the speakers were in
favor of a sewer system, and all were
equally opposed to having the system
built under the Vrooman act. A general
discussion of the entire subject was had.
which lasted for two hours. A general

to the echo. There was no mistaking
the sentiments of the meeting.
Before adjournment it was agreed
that the proceedings under the Vroo-
man act should be suspended, and that
the people should be given another
chance to vote upon bond issue.
This pleased everybody. and peace
reigns again in the City-by- the-Sea.
The people of Santa Monica are to be
congratulated on this happy turn OF
affairs, and On the determination of that
prosperous seaside resort to improve the
sanitary condition of that beautiful city.

In passing upon the question of the
kind Of money, the court said: "The kind

In passing upon the question of the
kind Of money, the court said: The kind
of money in which payment must be
made would influence any business man
in determining whether he will favor
this municipality incurring a debt for
the payment of which in common with
others his property is liable to taxation.
The decision is based largely upon
the proposition that the city council
could not change the terms of submis-
sion after the vote was taken, but it
also points strongly to the further prop
osition that the council must submit to
the voters a bond in strict conformity
to the statute, for it is said in the opin-
ion that the logical inference from the
case cited (referring to Yesler VS.. city of
Seattle, 1 Wash. 3OS) is that as tos all
matters required to be submitted, such
submission measures the authority of
the common council"
The opinion then calls attention to
the fact that the law prior to 1893 was
silent as to the kind of money in which
payment should be made, but that by
that latter act an amendment required
that the bonds and interest shall be
payable in gold coin or lawful money Of
the United States;" that before this
amendment there was no restriction as
to the kind of coin or currency; that
the power to determine the question was
as ample as that Of a natural person
to stipulate in what his personal obii-
cations should be paid The opinion
says:
The amendment must therefore have
been intended to restrict that power,
and this was done by expressly stating
the kind Of money in which alone they
shall be made payable In concluding.
the court held that when the case arises
before the bonds have been delivered,
the city has no power to issue them in a
form which does not substantially COM
ply with the terms stated in the ordi-
nance of submission and notice Of cleo
ton, and with the statute under which
the proceedings were had.
IF gold coin and lawful money of the
United States were terms importing
money of equal, fixed and Interchangeable
value, there would have been no occa-
sion for a change in the law. But as
this is not true can see a motive in so
providing that the maker of the bonds
should always have the option to pay in
that money declared by the United
States to be lawful money"
At great length the court examines
into other points raised. and in view of
the case. as taken by the court, new
trial could avail nothing, the judgment is
reversed and the court below directed
to enter Judgment for the plaintiff.
1t is said that this decision will ad-
versely affect an issue of bonds at San
Diego. but it will not affect any of Los
Angeles city bonds, as the local bonds
in every instance are issued in accord
ance with the requirements of the stat
