CORWlN DISCONNECTED
Impression Is That lie Was Never
Bested Ry an Antanouist

BeSted by an Antagonist.
''The general impression is. said the
Professor, that CorwiD was never dis
concerted by any antagonist. But
there was an old story current in Cen
trail Ohio thirty-tive or forty years ago,
showing the contrary. Soon after An
tioch College, at Yellow Springs, began
to achieve reputation under Horace
Mann, there was an outbreak among
the students. In attempting to quiet
the disturbance one of the professors
was roughly handled. The professor
insisted that the ring-leader in the
hazlng frolic threatened him with
heavy cane, and finally struck him.
The student was arrested on complaint
of the officers of the college, who were
represented in court by Tom Cor
win.
"CorwinS great reputation and his
manner took nearly all the fight out
Of the students, who were standing
10y the parties under arrest. Corwin
was carrying all before him, making
witnesses say almost what he wanted
them to say, when one of the principal
offenders took the stand This young
fellow admitted that the professor was
threatened with canes, but denied that
he was struck by any one. He said, in
fact, the boys only wanted to scare the
professor, and had no thought of hurt
ing him. The witness was a quiet,
athletic fellow. and as he made this
explanation he smiled at the eXagger-
ated look of amazement on Corwin's
face.
"Corwin made the witness show how
the canes were tlourished about the
professors head. and questioned him
persistently as to how close the canes
went to the professors nose. He began
with five inches and forced the witness
to say that the distance was not great
er than three inches. two inches, one
inch. Then, triumphant, he took the
cane from the hand of the witness,
and, flourishing it about the young fell
lows head, so close as to make him
dodge, Numbered: If a man should
flourish a heavy cane about your head
like this, and this, and this, within an
inch of your nose or ear or hair, what
would you think, what would you do
sir?' The student, who had been dodg-
ing this way and that, much to the
amusement of the spectators, suddenly
sprang to his feet. and initiating Cor.
wins intense. dramatic manner and
his humorous voice, said: I would
welcome him. sir. with bloody hands tc
a hospitable grave This application
of the famous sentence in Corwin's
speech on the Mexican War brought
down the house and threw the great
orator off his base" Chicago Inter

Bird Missionaries.

An interesting account is given by
a traveller of the moralizing effect on
French boys of the company of song
birds. says the Chicago Recor~. The
traveller was shown over the industrial
school of Mettray, near Tours, by its
founder, man of most subtle penetra-
ton His idea was to moralize the
Juvenile malefactOrs Of towns by en-
ployipg them at farm labor. Connec-
ted with the industrial school was a
chalet in an inclosed garden. This
was reserved for boys belonging to rich
families who had been handed over TO
the founder for penal discipline. He
was the only person at the chae; who
knew their names.
The chalet was full, and all the cases
were very bad. The first stage OF dis
cipline was solitary confinement and
lasted six months The whole course
lasted eighteen months. and after the
solitary period recreations, such as
riding, gymnastics. boating and skat-
ing were allowed. The visitor was
taken into the cells OF these "gi'ded"
prisoners. Noticing in some Of them
birds in cages. he asked what they
meant.
They meant that when a boy gave
signs of deep repentance he was al
lowed the companionship of bird.
If he relapsed the bird was taken away,
and fearful punishment it was. But
IL he improved he was given drawing
materials and allowed to sketch the
bird. He was also given a flute and
a musical warbler was sent every day
to play that instrument beside an open
sliding panel in the door The bird
picked up the airs. The captive tried
to pick them up, too, and thus had an
innocent amusement. Presently now-
ers and water colors were given to
the boy. The final stage Of the soli-
tary period was gardening. 1t was
always found salutary
