HOME AGAIN.

At last it sounds. The phrase we longed to
hear
Is brave and glad In the triumphant cheer,
But tenderest when a weary one may rest
At last with those who know and love him
best,
The feeting years bid memory efface
Lies crude and cruel lines. In softened
grace
The picture. lit by hope Instead OF pain,
Shines, as our boys repeat 1t, Home again
And we, who could but watch the empty
chair
And pray for one whose place wae waiting
there,
FonPd in the oldtime haunts so sad a change
That places most familiar grew most strange.
We, who were lingerers from the battle
scene,
with step grown lighter and with pulses
keen,
Like wanderers hear the welcoming refrain,
For we, with you, at last are Home again.

Perhaps no one Is more con- petent to
write on "Prisons mt Prisoners than Rev.
Mr.. Horsley. His experience OF both has
been considerable, and he has devoted
much time and attention to the study OF
crime and its causes. The earlier chapters
In the present book deal with prison sta
tistics, education and crime, and so on,
and bristle with facts and figures well
worthy OF the attention of the social re-
former. But perhaps the most interesting
portions of the work are those in which Mr..
Horsley gives. an account of some of his
personal experiences with members OF the
criminal class.
Here are some particulars OF money spent
on drink gathered from prisoners who
came under his observation.
Coal-whipper was once %teetotal Tor nine
mouths and saved $50, and makes from $40
to $50 a week, but spends up to even IS a
day sometimes, on beer for himself and
others.
Sailor spent s165 in a month on drink,
with nothing to show for 1t except being
here;" once was a teetotaler for eighteen
months when a bluejacket, and saved S2l5..
: .Coachman, old soldier, had $1,000 savings,
but spent it all in drink between November
and March. M mr.
Man, twenty-eight, began at 6 a. m. with
rum, spent 5l.75 OF his own, then sold a
donkey to a sweep for S6.25, appropriated
the money, and had only seven cents leftat
the end of the day
These are but a few typical cases. Tee;
t~otalers also occasionally find their way to
prison, as Mr.. Horsley points out. but he
makes the startling statement that in tue
absence of the liquor traffic, one police
and one prison would certainly be
sufficient for the metropolis" H.

At the recent hearing before the House
Committee. on Territories, Mrs. Mary H..
Hunt of Boston speaking of the good re-
suits that had come from the enactment OF
other laws in behalf of which she had at
other times appeared before Congress, re-
lated an interesting incident in regard to
Lieutenant Hobson. She said that after
the adoption of q course of systematic in
strnction In temperance hygiene and
physiology in the Naval Academy at An
napolis, in accordance with n law passed
through her instrumentality, she visited
that institution on the occasion CT the
graduation OF a class, and heard Hobson,
who was q member of the class, discuss, as
q part of his graduating examination, the
damaging effect Of alcohol on the human
system, and particularly its relation to the
performance of a sailors duty under cir
cumstances Of exposure. To the knowl-
edge gained by the Instruction given at the
Naval Academy she attributed the fact that
when the last officer of the Texas going
over the rail Of the doomed Merrinlac at
two O'Clock on the morning OF Hobson's
great exploit, turning, asked him; shall
we send you some breakfast, old MANI"
Hobson replied; mo. We don't care for
breakfast, but send US plenty of'-not
whisky, as any officer of tho navy would
have requested twenty years ago, but
coffee" Mrs. Hun attributed the clear
headed activity hat made the desperate
venture of Hobson and his companions
successful, to the absence OF liquor.
