A GREAT ELECTRICAL DISPLAY.

An interesting feature of the electri-
cal display in connection with the
National Export exposition in Phila-
delphia next fall will be the plan OF
special illumination of the city hall
adopted for the period of the exhi-
bition. The building is very impos-
ing structure, the highest point being
574 feet above the ground, and at
present there is a rim of lights around
the base of the statue of William Penn,
which surmounts the structure. 1t is
claimed that these lights can be seen
at a distance of thirty miles. Before
the exposition opens a ring of arc
lights will be placed around the rim Of
Penns hat, over 500 feet above the
pavement, and long strings OF mean
descent lights will run from there to
the roof of the building Every cor
nice will be studded with lights. and
all sides of the massive building will
be emblazoned by designs in colored
lights. Western Electrician.

SPANKING BY MACHINES.
Opinions About the Method of Punish.
ing Prisoners.

In one penal institution OF Colorado
spanking machines are used whenever
the prisoners are so obstinate or m
ruly as to be no longer affected by
moral suasion. The machines are Of
two kinds, one for men and one for
women. The men are strapped to
wooden horse for the punishment
while the women, clothed In light
suits, are made to sit in a chair that
has no bottom. The paddles are then
operated
Major Richard Sylvester, superin-
tendent of the police department Of the
District OF Columbia, Is reported to.
have expressed himself in favor of the
introduction of these spanking ma
chimes into the prisons and reforma-
tories OF the District of Columbia
Major Sylvester said:
Il will recommend the adoption OF
this machine in my next annual re-
port. ! see nothing barbarous in its
use. The paddle of the machine in
flicts the punishment, but that is not
so great as the degradation and HUI
initiation of the victim. The machine
does not draw blood or disfgure the
person upon whom it is used, but out
in Colorado every padding becomes
an object lesson through the fact that
the other inmates of the prison are
called in to see the punishment in
flicted
Lispenard Stewart, the lawyer OF
81 Nassau street, president Of the
stare commissions of prisons, said yes
terday to a Tribune reporter:
Il do not believe that a spanking
machine will ever be used in New
York. This state has taken a firm
stand against corporal punishment
There are laws on our statute books
prohibiting all forms of bodily pun
ishment, The sentiment OF the pri-
son officials of this state, who in the
course of their duties come in contact
with all the criminal classes, is
against corporal punishment. I be-
lieve the people of this state would
denounce the Introduction of anything
like the spanking machine. 1t is felt
that the infection of corporal punish
ment hardens the criminal and lowers
the dignity of the state, 1t is a relic
Of barbarism. and New York will have
none of it. New York Tribune

CHAPTER XXI.

CHAPTER hAhll.
! fiiGTg was no ffgdcGf;- f1aiaf,iss se2rt
/ in the world than Agatha Lynne's on
| that evening as she listened to the
story Of Allans love. She had always
| liked him; there had been time when
/ she had preferred her cousin, Lord
| Lynne: but he had not loved her, and
| she was not the girl to waste her life
| In vain sorrow and regret. When
| Philips image faded, Allan's took its
place. She had cared for no one In
London, because she felt that he loved
her. and she liked him better than any
one else.
There was a deep sense Of happiness
in her gentle heart; there was no.
thing to fear. She knew that Philip
and Inez would like her to marry
Allan, she would live near them and
they would be one happy family. She
lay down to sleep with quiet smile
upon her lips, her face wearing the
glad look of a little child.
How long she had slept Agatha did
not know; the morning light shone
gray and dim In her room when she
was aroused by some one trying the
handle Of her door
who Is there?' she cried, wonder
ing who could want her at that UNI
usual hour of the night.
Let me in, Agatha" said her sister
Il want TO speak to YOU
In a moment the door was un-
fastened, and the sisters stood face to
face.
"Inez, dearest, what is the matter?"
cried Agatha, She was stupehed at
Lady Lynne's appearance. Her face
was white her lips drawn, and her
hair hung over her shoulders.

and 1 will not touch it until seven
o'clock 1t is just three now she
said, looking at her watch.

meath the pillow, and then she knelt
