The Kick Coming Home.

When Ex-Deputy Warden George
Andrew asked the Governor to take a
hundred of the best men from this in
stitution to help lick Spain, there was
considerable kicking about them not
being wanted, but to give the "dress
parade" fellows and rag baby soldiers
chance to go. They went, but before
the end is at hand they are crying,
cussing, begging and doing everything
dishonorable to drag the name of the
good and faithful soldier in the dust.

here to believe, that had they been Civ.

per, rather than to have showed them
selves as unworthy of marching under
the flag of their country. We know
this is pretty plain, but it is the truth
all the same.
We honor every true man who en-
listed, but the fellow who went just to
be in fashion is poor excuse of SOL

carries.-AnamOsa Prison Press.

Miss Pratt then whistled sounds from

came Rev. Thos. McCleary, who gave

conjured up in my minds eye the pos
sible scene of file of the boys breaking
out into loud laughter, as they marched
up to the Deputy Wardens office about
5 o'clobk, just for their health, you
know. After the lecture Miss Pratt
sang 'Sweetheart, the Time will Come"
and then "Supposing." as an encore,
which proved that in addition to her
other accomplishments she also has a
beautiful and well-cultured voice. The
last number of the program was the
"Pizzicato Polka" whistled by Miss
Pratt, after which the Warden intro
duced Chairman Rosing of the State

Miss Pratt and her mother made a
tour through the prison last Tuesday
and viewed the place when everyone
was working. She also had chat
with the editor, and expressed her
kindly sympathy for and interest in
the men who are so unfortunate as to
be deprived of their liberty, saying also
that she never put her musical gifts to
