Interchangeable, as mother s-abid-

But often we observe sons and
daughters who appear careless Of
this treasure of a mothers love.

Offices Of love which would bright

They love mother-of course

that the one to whom they owe

LIFE IN PRISON.

There are philanthropists who
sayit is shame to make prisoners
spend time in work that should be
given to repentance. They do not
understand that labor is often the
greatest mercy of all to minds in
captivity. One prisoner has just
written to the Chicago Blade in
support Of this view, saying:
II know how many nails there
are in the floor within reach of my
eye and the number of seams, also
[ am familiar with the stained
spots, the splintered burrows, the
scratches and the uneven surfaces
Of the planks.

delegate to Philadelphia.
Here is one that we haven't seen
in print: In the troublous days
of '93. when fnanciers were worse
off than beggars, largely because
they had credit to maintain. Tom
was in Chicago, looking earnestly
for that which is the hardest thing
to find on this earth when one is
in a hole, financial succor. (This
is, the authorities are all agreed,
the correct spelling.) He was
going into one building after
another, upstairs and downstairs,
and not always waiting for the
elevator, so sorely pressed was he
for time. AS he emerged from
one of these skyscrapers, hat in
hand and hopping his perspiring
brow. a tramp halted him with,
"Mister, please gimme a quarter,
I'm hum"
"Get tell out O here! I'm work

Hearing on Suit in United States Cour

Hearing on Suit in United States Court
Saturday.
e. e. Marvin as commissioner in ad-
miralty, to whom Judge Townsend re-
ferred the various libels against the
mud scoWs 6, 7, 8 and 10 and the steam
dredge Newport, formerly owned by
Brainard Brothers of New London,
held hearing in the United States
court room last Saturday Avery f.
Cushman of New York appeared for the
claimants and objected to the allowance
OF any of the claims on the ground that
all of the claims were against the own
ers personally and not against the scows
and dredge, He was opposed in this
contention by Seymour & Knapp of
bridgeport, who appear for the Bridge
port Towing company, Commissioners
Wing and Putnam OF New York, who
appear for the tug Oracle, and James
ID. Dewell, jr.. who appears for the tug
volunteer. Mr.. Marvin ruled that all
the libellants must prove their claims
and give testimony so that he could de-
termlne whether the claims should be
allowed against the scows and dredge.
The hearing was adjourned to May at
Hartford for that purpose. United
States Marshal Bishop recently sold the
scoWs and dredge for about 10000 and
the money is now in the registry of the
court.
