LIEyNTcs

negro named Cannon, who is in jail
at Russellville, in the United States,
was always very musical and quite an
accomplished player on the guitar,
which he sorely missed when he became
confined within the prison walls. He did
not despair, however, but found very
Ingenious way of satisfying his craving
for music. He took the tin pan in which
his daily meal was brought, and con-
verified it into the head of banjo Then
by some means or other, he got hold of
a rough piece of poplar and smoothed
it with an old broken bladed knife, and
this became the neck and screws of the
instrument. Then came the difficulty of
the strings; but this also was success
fully surmounted, for he happened to
have twelve cents belonging to him,
and the officials were persuaded to buy
him five strings with them, and then
the banjo was complete, and was at
once made to give forth music One of
the jailers says that the Niger really
manages to play with wonderful sweet
ness on this instrument so strangely
made.
One of the most daring occupations
in which convicts ever engage was
surely that of two men, Coyne and
Brown, incarcerated in the state pris-
on at Folsom, Cal, who actually went
In for making counterfeit coin while
the guests of their country, for use, of
course, when such hospitality was no
longer afforded them. A complete coun-
terfeiting plant was discovered in the
engine room of the prison, and when
the officers who discovered it rushed in,
the convicts leaped through a window
and threw their dies and crucibles into
a canal. How they had got them into
the prison was mystery. A large num-
Der of well-executed five-cent pieces,
which would easily have passed, were
found. Only nickel coins were made,
presumably because silver could not be
obtained, and the metal had been taken
from the engines which run through
the prison grounds for the purpose of
hauling rock from the quarries.
Convicts, however, may sometimes

knowledge which may on occasion be

not long ago the Victoria Penal Depart
ment was in a great fix, for the keys

4NNUAL REPORT.
OF Calvary Industrial Home-Five Years
fin Existence.

| I'm Existence.
Calvary Industrial home has passed
another milestone in it's history, having
just celebrated it's fifth anniversary.
Five years spent in loving toll for those
out of Christ and without hope
The results of such work can only
be known in eternity, for figures can
never express the results of a work of
love in the cause of humanity. This
we do know, however, that many a
man, weary of the battle of life and al
most ready to give up the struggle, has
found in Calvary industrial home an
example of the love of Christ, has re-
sponded to His love, entered His service
and has gone out to become respected
and useful citizen.
During the year the home has fur
nished 37,049 meals and lodgings to men
out of work. 1t has ministered to S13
different men of all kinds and creeds.
We have furnished clothing for men in
the home and supplied all their needs
so far as possible. We have helped all
of the men and all Of the man-physi-
If we only gave a man work in his
distress we would fall short of our
highest privilege, for what nine out of
tsn men need who come to us is not a
position and good wage, but
strengthening of character and a ref
ormation of habit, that he may be able
to properly use the money that he can
earn. AS a means toward this end the
home has furnished 321 services during
the year, which as rule all of the men
have attended We feel, however, that
the greatest help, in leading men to
higher plane of living, is real example
from day to day of the love and spirit
of Christ.
Again, if we only preach the gospel
to men, without these other helps, we
would still some far short of our great
est usefulness.
We believe that "The soul of all i'm
provement is the Improvement of the
SOUL" and that the only sure way of
doing this is to unite "Self-help and hui
man help with divine help"
Many examples of the usefulness of
this work could be given. Less than
six months ago Mr.. A. came to the
home. He had always held good posi-
tons, but like many others had lived
a fast life and had been thrown down.
After being with us few days he de-
cided to change the current of his life
He gave his heart to God and began
His service In a few days, through
friends, he gained a good position in the ]

city Later he Joined the Y. M. c. A.
and a church. To-day he is an earnest
worker, striving to help others into the
light in which he now walks.
Another young man of a different
stamp, weakened in every part of his
nature, carried about by every tempta-
ton, was at last landed in jail. From
there he came to us with desire to be
better man. After being with us for
over a month he was recommended by
the superintendent to one of the shops
in the city. He now has permanent
work and is living a sober Christian
life. He looks forward with pleasure to
the time when he can make home for
his aged mother.
Mr. L. came to the home for one
night, but was urged to remain for
while that he might be helped. He had
lost friends and position through drink.
After being in the home about week
he asked to be prayed for, and in a few
days began to testify in the meetings.
He gradually grew stronger and show
ed himself worthy of trust. He was
soon recommended to work with civil
engineer and performed his task faith
luily anu SATISFACTORILY ulllll lle Jop
was finished A few weeks later he
was again recommended and now holds
a trusted position in one of the large
business houses Of the city.
These facts only imperfectly tell the
story of the great good accomplished
in this work. Similar facts could be
told of many other men who are now in
the home or have recently left it for
trusted positions.
All this work has been done and an
untold good accomplished at cost to
contributors Of only $1,443,39. The men
have earned $4,74S.52
Thus it will be seen that the men
have earned over two-thirds of the
money needed to carry on the work.
If the men who come to us, physically
and mentally demoraized, can nearly
support themselves while here and then
go out to good positions, they are doing
well. Where can a few dollars be more
profitably invested? Or where will it
do more good than in the support of
such work?
We look forward into the coming year
with new courage and faith born from
above, believing that the richest bless
ing of the Oliver of every good and per-
feet gift will rest upon us as we go for
ward.

which the safe might be opened. A
quiet, confidential message was sent to
the governor of the nearest prison,
which was at Pentridge, and that Of

In due course, the man arrived in

He looked at it for moment, brought
one of his instruments to bear upon it,
and in very short space of time, and
without any bungling or damaging of

POLO.

New Haven Defeats Waterbury in a
Fast Game-Fine Team Work Shown
BY the Blues.
At Bowling hall last night good
game of polo was witnessed when New
Haven defeated the Waterbury Rough
\ Rders'' by the score of a goals to s..
During the first period each team scored
r%t~u goals, the first goal being made by
Whipple during scrimmage in front OF
the goal Forty-two seconds later the
same player scored the second goal with
d swift side drive from a pass off from
Leydon, the team work of the Blues
seeming to battle Wiley and Holderness.
Waterbury tried hard to score and
I Wiley at last got a chance and sent in
long drive which beat Lations. This
seemed to put more mettle in them and
Roberts with a nice side drive made the
second goal for them. No more scoring
took place during this period. The
second period opened with both teams
playing fast polo, each trying hard to
get the lead and after some fine play
Bone scored for the Blues and few
minutes later during a scrimmage in
front of the cage Roberts equalized, but
before this period ended Whipple again
got the ball in front of the cage and
poked it past Swords. During the third
period Waterbury tried hard to score,
but were unable to get the ball past
Lations, who played fine game, saving
some very hard drives. No more scor-
ing took place and a good game ended
in favor of the Blues. New Haven
PLAYED by far the most scientific game
of the two teams, but seemed to have
hard luck in scoring, the ball bounding
out Of the cage three times. Bone and
WhippIe played fast game and were
well backed by Legion and Whiting,
whom Roberts and Griffin found it hard
to get past. But for the fine work Of
Swords at goal the score would have
been much larger, this player leaving
his goal to block what seemed very
likely to be goals.
