CONVICTS BUILD A CHURCH.
An English Edifce Almost Wholly the
Work of Criminals

In the stony fastness of Portland's
rugged isle, or rather promontory-
in whose penal settlement the notori-
ons Jabez Balfour is at present ex-
plating his misdeeds-there is sight
which tourists often overlook.
The beautiful garrison church of
st. Peters is convict worth through
ont, with the exception only Of the
colored mosaics in the reredos, which
were inserted by an Italian artist.
The church is OF course of Portland
stone, the same material Of which st.
Paul's cathedral, the law courts, the
monument, Westminster bridge and
the banqueting-room at Whitehall
have been built St. Peters is situ-
ated just outside the prison domains,
and is for the use of the line regiment
stationed at Verne citadel, the high
est poirt on the island.
The interest attaching TO such a
building is heightened lE the circum-
stances that the verger-an ex-war-
der of Portland prison-can tell YOU
whose work is represented in particu-
lar parts. The border around the
porch and the mosaic pavement of the
sanctuary are the delicate handiwork
of Constance Kent. the lady of gentle
birth who murdered her stepbrother
and was induced to confess her crime
by Brighton clergyman The stone
pulpit, the body of which is in one
piece, was erected by the Irish fen
ians. The font at the door and the
lectern in the center were chiseled by
young Whitechapel thieves, who
proved to be such exceptionally skill
fui artisans that it was a pity they
ever took to thieving. This wild cor
ner of England contains a practically
inexhaustible supply of the famous
white stone, and as many Of the quar-
rics are owned by the government. the
Portland convicts are employed to
work them. They can be seen at work
by the visitor almost any dav. Ten

He Assaulted an Old Hen.

Since all other controversies

BaaToWs FAITH IN TINE STATE.
The Labor Commissioner Speaks
Encouraglngiy Of the Future.

State Labor Commissioner I. ".
Barton has great faith In the flu
ture of West Virginia. In speak
ing of her development recently he
said:
Things have changed greatly
in this State the past few years,
but there is still great room for
improvement In the sentiment Of
the people. A few wears ago
great mass of the residents of West
Virginie IA we'll as those of ether
states, did not appreciate the vast
wealth of this State. This is now
true of too many people today.
One reason for this was the fact
that having grown up surrounded
with natural resources of untold.
wealth which has not been utilized,
they failed to grasp their vast i'm
portance In many sections now
these resources are fully appreci-
ated, though in many sections and
IN some of the resources, it will
take several years yet to impress
on our people as we'll as upon
capitalists their value. One ma
tive element of value is marble.
In several counties we have marble
in as large quantities and as fine
qualities as any where In the world
In Berkeley county this has been
worked to some extent, but owing
to the fact that one of the finest
beds of limestone is located there
the marble has been to great
extent neglected for this.
"One of the greatest industries
in the interior of the State is the
textile industry. One factory at
Martlnsburg employs upward of
300 in the textile department.
This is 80 per cent more than
in 1889.
"Pulp is another of the incom-
ing industries of this State. At
tention was only called to the vast
amount of spruce pine, suitable
for wood pulp, IN this State, few
years ago. No other State in the
union has the amount or the quali-
ty Of this that is to be found in
West Virginia. The pulp mill at
Piedmont has attracted much at
tention from the fact that every
postal card used by the United
States government is made there.
They have a contract for the manu-
facture of these for a number of
years to come. A New York firm
has made an investigation of the
advantages of West Virginia sor
the manufacture of wood pulp, and
recently organized a company with
$500, 900 capital for the purpose
of erecting and operating Il mill in
this State. While they have not
given out a statement as to where
this Will be located, it Is believed
that it will be located in Fayeette
county, on New river.
