THE REVIVAL OF WHIPPING.
Present Penal Institutions Are En-
tirely Too Popular.


From Harper's Weekly.
We have been interested to note a con-
spicuous revival of the discussion OF whip
ming as a punishment for crime. The gen.
eral impression among well-informed men
Is that our penal institutions are too popu-
lar among criminals to be strongly deter
ring influence. The penitentiaries have
been developed along lines which are too
purely ideal from the offenders point OF
view to act as a restraint upon their evil
tendencies, and It is felt in many quarters
that something less comfortable than free
board and lodging for a term Of years.
with a modest amount of daily toll to In
crease the appetite, Is demanded to make
crime more unpopular as q profession
whipping seems to, be the most feasible
and humane deterrent available. 1t GER
tainly fills the offender with a wholesome
dread, and physical pain is something
which most Of the hardened criminals fear
more than the loss Of personal liberty. to
which by degrees they become used. Ger
tainly, whether or not the whipping post
be reyived-and there are potent arguments
against it's resurrection-we have latterly
been surprised at the attitude the man in
tatl has been permitted to assume in the
eyes Of society. Our penal institutions pro-

Fashions for the Matinee.
From Harper's Basar.
At the matinee a much quieter style of
dress prevails and the light waists that are
seen are more on the style Of shirt waists.
They are made of silk or some light mate
rial to wear with the cloth skirt and jacket,
or under a fur coat. Large hats are not
suitable for theater wear. even when they
are taken off. as is the rule now, for they
are cumbersome to hold and always look
inappropriate. The small velvet toques and
turbans trimmed with ostrich feathers are
Infinitely prettier and less likely to disar-
range the hair. besides which the picture
hat requires far more space and time to
arrange than are possible to attain after
the play in the short period given to an
audience to dispense. For matinee wear
white gloves look smartest but it is per-
fectly possible to wear tan or gray A
walking glove with not more than two
buttons Is the best. A fur coat Is a poor
thing to wear to the theater. 1t is far DC t
ter to wear a cloth coat with an adjust bic
piece OF fur, for there are many times be-
tween the acts when a draught of air
makes a fur boa or collar most desira BILE,
and yet when fur coat would be quite
too warm.

Favored the Mechanical Filter.
A recess was taken. after which Mr.. Ed
mond B. Weston Of Providence, r. L., con-
sulting engineer, testified. Mr.. Weston de-
signed the plant for mechanical filtration at
East Providence, r. L.; Norfolk, Va; East
Albany, NJ Y, and Norristown, Pa. He de-
signed the mechanical plant for Providence,
in spite of the fact that there was no great
degree of turbidity to get out OF the water.
and the filter there was for meteorological
purposes, and he had approved the mechan-
zeal system because he was satisfied of its
efficiency after careful experiment. The ca
pacity Of the plant at East Providence Is
now 10000 gallons a day, though It can
readily be increased to 100000 gallons. Mr.
Weston made the plans and estimates for
the mechanical filtration pant for the Dis
trict Of Columbia. He found at East Provi-
dence the slow sand filtration system would
cost twice as much as the mechanical sys-
tenn, though there was little expense in
volved for the land Itself In reply to

particular filter. though he is consulting en-
gineer for the New York Filter Manufac-
turing Company. He had built the mechan-

plant at Norfolk, where there was very I'M
pleasant-looking water, which was COM

an attractive water, and selected the me
chanical filter in order to give 1t to them.
Any Plan of Filtration il Good.
Mr.. Weston said he believed any plan Of
filtration would reduce danger from typhoid
fever He considered that the question of
the relative efficiency of the slow sand and
the mechanical systems had been handled
very l1nfa irlv nv the Medical Soeiefv of the
District of Columbia. and read a paper he
had prepared in reply to the argument and
statements of fact by that society. He said

Berlin Police sa,a,,es.

An investigation of the police system
OF Berlin recently showed that one of
the commissaries. who has wife and
three children to support, gets a salary
of $500 year, together with $135 for
house rent and sS5 for the room to be
used as an Office. His position entails
a good deal Of expense because of the
large number Of people of various
classes with whom he is obliged to as
sociate, and he is moreover expected to
maintain the standard of living of an
officer of the army of the same rank.
The highest salary paid to an officer
of the criminal department Of the DO
lice administration is $4,000 a year.
The whole question of salaries in Ger
many is beginning to attract attention.
Judges do not get on an average more
than $1,000 a year. But the profession
of the law is not much honored in
Prussia. Only the highes. legal repre-
sentatives are admitted at court, and a
barrister is denied admission to the
royal presence.

Application for Rural Delivery.

Postmaster Cannon has made application
to the postoffi;e department for rural free
delivery Tor the territory to the north and
south of Bellows Falls. The propose
route takes in ali the houses this side of
R ckingham village. Ga the Saxto on,
River road it extends to Ii. w. O.g ood's,
takes in the hill by H. W. Towards, and
then from Blackville over the back road to
Westminster to whore it connects with the
main river road, and then back to Bellows
Falls. This would extend the service over
81 miles, and accommodate sc heads OF fam
lilies and total population of 2S7. 1t in
cludes ell the patrons OF the Bellows Falls
cffi,e and a few more.
Mr.. Cannon does OF feel quite certain
that the department will G ant the service,
but believes that no harm can coma of ask
ing. In making the trip to Rockingham
six miles would have to be doubled and the
department requires 100 heads OF families
actual residents on the route. The lay of the
road and the lack Of population may defeat
the mo Vement. All will agree, however,
that the establishment If thi, service would
he great benefit to those living on the
route.
The first of the week Mr.. Cannon had
word from General Grout to the effect that
application for rural free delivery for this
territory had been made at the pos office
department with an urgent request that the
matter receive prompt attention.
