Prison Babies.

Very few people outside official cir
cles know what large number Of ba-
bies are born every year in the infirm-
aries of prisons and penitentiaries, the
little people always causing quite a
fiutter of attentiveness and excitement
among female Warders and prisoners
alike.
OF course there is vast difference in
prisoners, and sometimes the person
least attentive to the prison baby Is the
mother herself; but. on the other hand,
the general body of the women prison
ers make the most pathetic efforts, by
means of all manner Of trifiing scraps
and odds and ends, to fabrlcate articles
of wear and ornament for the, out-of-
place little stranger.
Quite three-fourths of the women
volunteer to tend it, and 1t is often the
case that the most refractory and diff
cult Of the prisoners soften and greatly
alter by being allowed to do little
things for 1t; indeed, it acts through
out like veritable ray OF sunshine
among the whole Of the poor prisoners.

first trip was made to Santa Fee, and
the run Of 800 miles and back was made

Majors brought his oxen in as fat and

him a reputation among the traders.
Up to that time 1t had been conceded
that no man could manage yoke of

1t was in 1S4s that Col. Majors began
his frelghting on the old Santa Fe trail,
running line Of wagons between indie
