HARD TIMES FOR VAGS'
JAuoR HENRY GIVES THEM A
rOUgu PLACE.
Porto Ricans Sentenced AZ Loafors
Doing the Hardest Work ~ An in
oahu Jail.

Ina oahu Jan are eight Porto Rican
Migrants who sincerely regret that
they were ever without visible means
OF support" Theirs is not the ordinary
sentence of the men Judge Wilcox
sends TO prison. Captain Henry, the
boss Of the jail, has put the Porto Ri
cans In the toughest places among his
laborers, and If they never showed
themselves able 20 do hard work be-
fore they are showing IL now,
The worst work that IL done by the
prison laborers is IN the rockcrusher
'sweat-box," as II Ia called. 1t is the
dread OF the convict that he be given
a term at this post, and the prison Off
GERS are assisted in maintaining disci-
pline by their power to put men at
easy or hard posts as the case may
be.
The Porto Rican Migrants in the
sweat-box have the job Of handling
the rock as IL comes out crushed. IL Is
a hot place and the exercise Is constant
The change from the l'fe OF a loafer
and beggar to that Of a Porto Rican
in the rock-crusher, is very complete.
Some OF the men are in for two
months. others for one month. While
they are in they will continue to have
the place of hardship. Il think IL is
the best way TO discourage the loafers'
said Henry. when 1t begins to be
bruited about that the Migrants get
that kind of treatment there will not
be SO many of them.
"The evil of vagrancy is growing in
the community, owing perhaps to the
character of our new population, ana
think 1t is a good idea to deal with II
severely. The Porto Ricans VINO are
in now and at work in the crusher are
likely to be very careful how they lay
themselves liable to capture again.
Vagrancy is hard to prove in any case
so that only a few are ever sentenced,
but to those who are / shall give the
fullest benefit of their sentence.
