AWFULNESS OF PRISON LIFE.
The Dreadful Realization That the
Brand of "COnyictH Never
Can BE Removed.

The first aspect Of prison Efe that
strikes one Who enters within the doors
is its cutoffness from the world outside.
The man who has friends who still care
for him may receive a stated number Of
visits year, hen for few minutes he
talks with wife or mother or friend n
the guardroOm. and he is allowed to
write one letter a month and 20 receive
letters twice a week. To him there is,
therefore. still this little bridge BE-
tween his cell and the world from
which he has been banished. To many.
however, there does not exist this Enh
no friends have they to call on them.
and the deliverer of letters passes
their cells every week for years with
out stopping to hand a messag
through the bars to them. Stern dis
cipline, loneliness long hours Of work,
a narrow little cell with Just room
enough for a stool and a bed. with Il
thick barred door through which the
light falls thanked with shadows as a
constant reminder of confinement
these, in part, make up prison life
The felon of wealth and the poor pris-
oner from the slums may march next
each other in the lockstep and occupy
adjacent cells on the gallery. for to al
intents and purposes they are alike
now. The striped dress, close-cropped
lair, the utter stripping off of all com
forts have Ieveling influence.
The awfulness Of prison life lies in
the memories of the past; the dismal
contrast between home and prison cell;
the longing for loved ones whose hearts
are aching away out of reach: the
knowledge that the wretched cumpan-
ionship of misery must be theirs in the
weary round of prison toll from morn.
ing till night for the long years ahead
which seem interminable. Above and
beyond all this. prisoners have the bit
ter realization of the brand that has
fallen upon them never to be removed
-convicts-that they are degraded be
fore the public. and will be looked upon
forever as accursed-Mrs. Darlington

POLITICS IN THE OLE WORLD
The singular Manner in Which tbs
senator for French India
Was Elected.

\ curious story is told concerning the
manner in which Nj. Godin. the new
minister of public works and senator
for French India, first came to represent
that constituency. Godin is one of the
gentlemen whom NJ. Bcisson had up his
sleeve to fill up any probable vacancy
in the cabinet when they announced
their decision to proceed with the
Dreyfus case. NJ. Godin is also a law
yer, and some Is years ago he appeared
in and won 4 ease for gentleman who
was largely represented in French In
Ola. says the Paris Messenger.
The day for settlement came round.
and the client having duly handed "
Godin his fees. remarked: by the
way, how would You like to represent
French India in the chamber. because
could manage il for you?"
NJ. Godin knew that his client was
big man in Pondicherri. but naturally
replied: NO one knows me there. anG
/ should have 10 make a long voyage
Nothing of the sort replied tt,
gentleman. You keep out of our locai
struggles and stop in Paris"
NJ. Godin did so. but accepted the offer
and some few months later some is .00C
Hindoos put his name into the urn. ARD
it was then that NJ. Godin first became
deputy for French India, place the
existence of which up to that day he
only probably knew in a vague sort -
way. And yet they say that there are
no political BOSSES outside of America.
