IL is exceedingly unfortunate that
Captain p. f. Harrington, OF the United
States Navy, is forced to come home
TO recover from the ill-effects Of the
Cuban climate. Wars come but once
or twice in a lifetime, and both army
and navy Officers look forward to ac-
tive service as the surest means OF
distinction and promotion, Captain
Harrington is ambitious. His service
in the navy has been long and honor
able. He was in command of the mond-
tor Puritan, one OF the finest ships in
the American navy. He was proud OF
his ship and proud OF his officers and
men. His friends say that his en-
forced retirement from active service
AT this time almost breaks his heart.
We are not surprised that such is the
case, and we feel that we express the
sentiments OF all who know the cap
tain when we wish him speedy re-
covery, quick reinstatement, and such
activo and distinctive service as will
lead TO his promotion before the ces-
sation OF hostilities.

THE YOUTHFUL AGE OF CRIMI-
MAILS.

MAILS.
DIR. Frederick III. Wines, OF Illinois.
has been discussing the subject OF the
youth OF the prisoners in the penal in
stitutions Of the United States, and his
conclusions show that the convicts Of
the country are a more youthful set
OF men than it is generally supposed
they are. OF the S2,329 prisoners in
the country, one-eighth are to be found
in New York, one-fourth in the three
States of New York, Pennsylvania and
Massachusetts,. The average age Of the
prisoners was under 81, and nearly
one-half were under 80, about a third
under 25 and nearly one-eighth under
20.
The average age Of the public pauper
is 81 years. The average age Of a ne
gro prisoner is PIN years, OF native
white prisoner 80 years and Of for
eign white prisoner 30 years and .
months. The youth Of these convicts
raises the queries whether they are
born criminals, and II not, what has
driven them to a life of crime, at sc
early an age? II they have become
evil -doers through force Of circum-
stances, what proportion Of them car
be saved by proper treatment, so thai
they will become law-abiding citizens
It is a matter OF no little importance
i that the Volunteers Of America havS
undertaken to deal with all the ques'
tions involved in this condition Of az
fairs, in a practical way, with a view
to rescuing these young criminals whe1
they shall have completed ther tern
OF servitude. The directors OF thd
movement assume that in the hearts o
most Of these men there is a sincer'
wish to live better lives, and that !
the opportunity is given them yer,
many will embrace it and become up
right and reputable citizens.
At the New York State Reformator
at Elmira the system Of manual train
ing has been introduced to educate tn
ldegenerates to work, it being prove
that they have been led into lives o
crime through associations that hav
brought about total adherence O
honest labor. The system employe
tends to a cultivation OF the will, a
we'll as the education Of the hand, an
SO far it has been remarkably success

The circular letter issued by the
Board on Directors of the Street and
Sewer Department relative to streets
which are about to be paved is both
wise and timely. IL is, in brief, to the
effect that after the paving is once laid
IT will not be torn UP under any pre-
text for five years, and that owners OF
properties bordering on the streets
must make all water, sewer and gas
connections Within thirty days or wait
for five years before doing so. In all
parts OF the city patched places are to
be seen In the paving. Property-own-
ers appear to delight in waiting for a
street to be paved before making con-
nections, which might just as well be
made before the paving is done. This
present order on the part OF the direc-
tors is.a step in the right direction.
