1t Is with reluctance that some of
the convicts leave the penitentiary at
the expiration oil their term of inn
prisonment, and many of them set
to work at once to commit some
crime that will result in PUTTING
them back behind the for white
walls that shuts out the great world.
But there are many others, who
are confined behind those walls, who
still have their instincts Of humanity
within their hearts, and who live, or
rather exist, for years wit the yearp.

all men equals.
Many men now inside the prison
are there i'll body, while their souls
and hearts and minds are far away.
Many of them are, indeed, men.
Men lar from the Surroundings and
far from the average statues of hu

and stolid indifference
There are, perhaps, men, who are
suffering for crimes committed bv

ones are dragging themselves through

How many innocent men are cuff

But such men are in all prisons.

Courts err. If they did not there

Church Music.

Why don't the people sing i'll
church? AS matter of fact thew
don't, whatever may be tho cause.
1t was remarked recently, by one
who observed closely, that not more
than two per cent. of the worshippers
In any congregation in town engage
IN service of song. Is it because they
can't sing? There must be some
good reason for the falling off in
Church singing. Several reasons NAV
be given: The church organ and
choir has had much to do with driy-
Ing the singing out of the church.
The performances of the choir are
regarded, in most instances as an
entertainment, and of course the
people sit and listen rather than
sing. The choir are generally Sc
leoted with q view to proficiency in
music, and generally get off some
thing calculated to entertain, rather
than to edify. The choir, instead of
leading singing, as was intended
when organs and choirs were
first introduced, they now monopo-
lie and restrict the service of song
to very small number of the peo
pie.
Again: Books are scarce III most
OF the churches. and, one inclined to
sing, if he happens to be familiar
with the music used, is unable to do
30 for want of book. The old Gus
tom, OF lining out the hymns, should
be revived unless books are provided
for the congregation. In these DAYS
when many people are able to read
music, books with notes should be
provided. Probably the principal
reason why more people do not sing
ls, not because they don't know how.
or are not familiar with the music.
etc., but because the idea of wor-
ship in singing is not made promi.

is looked upon as n preliminary to

which is not worship at all. The
fact seems to need emphasis, that
singing is worship-the chief part of
the devotional exercises OF the
church. 1t has been observed that
the religious fervor of church can
be accurately measured by the sing
ing.
While on this subject we will say
further, there is need Of first.class

WORRIED BY A ISLANDER
The Reason Mrs. Reade At.
tempted Her Life.
ONLY RELIEF WAS DEATH
Intended to Commit SUI eide on the
Train-Took Too Much Choral in

Her Name by Law.

Mrs L. l.. Reade, who attempted sui
eide a week ago Monday, is able to sit
up and expects to be around as we'll as
usual in few days. Yesterday a, re-
porter for the Standard called on Mrs.
Reade to learn from her own lips the
straight of the story, which it would
appear from the various reports, was
considerably and unjusty garbled. She
received the reporter cordially and said
at once that she desired to make a
statement with reference to her attempt
to take her life.
THE direct cause of the act was a
SANDER brought against my name by a
woman who occupies a high social posi-
ton in this city, said Mrs. Reade.
This terrible Islander was more than

became so agitated in mind and body

for me was death. l left a sick friend,
telling her that l intended to take my
life on the train. I went to the Butte.

desired results while the train was

The Spanish caravels-Pinta. Nina, and
Santa Maria-which were among the chief
features of the Worlds Fair at Chicago,
now lie ice-bound and weather-beaten IN
the south lagoon at Jackson Park, In that
city, where the Exposition was held. Their
day has passed, and the American public
has apparently forgotten them. Time was
when thousands upon thousands viewed
these queer-shaped craft with absorbing
interest and marvelled that Columbus and
his crew should have dared to sail the
seas in ships like them.
In the days of the fair the Spanish flag
proudly foated from the masts of the
caravels, and added no little to the sug-
gestiyeness of the picture presented by
the vessels. And in those days, too. the
American public was eagerly entertain
ing Spanish royalty and exchanging cour-
tesies with the Dons. One can hardly
realize the changes wrought by the past
twelve months, and yet the present con-
dition OF the caravels is almost i'm Itself
an allegory.
Shortly after the Exposition the vessels
were acquired by museum, which has
spent several hundred dollars in keeping
them in repair, but the lapse OF few
years, together with the elements, has
begun to tell OH them. The Pintas hold
is we'll filed with water. and the Santa
Maria is on her bottom and badly listed
to the north. Parts of her rigging are
torn away from their fastenings and sway
70 and fro.
The attaches of the museum say that
they have. under the circumstances, done
the best they could for the vessels, but
there Is something very pathetic about
their present condition.

Chicago has Just begun an official IN

The defendant alleges that the FAIR

so noticeable that the judge changed the
