PRISON FOR YOUTHS.

Juvenile Offenders

france Provides for the Care Of Rich
Juvenile Offenders.
Under the innocent looking title, La
Maison Paternelle," there exists in
France what might be briefly desig-
mated as an authorized. aristocratic
prison for juvenile offenders, says Pear
sons Magazine. It was founded by a
legal luminary, M. De Metz, man
deeply interested in the training and
welfare Of the young, with view to
checking the growing. spirit Of insu"
bOrdination to authority, both at home
and at school, which had become spe-
cially marked in the highest ranks Of
soRiety in France. One Of the most
salutary elements in the scheme Of this
institution is the absolute secrecy
which is maintained in France, both as
to the exact locality Of this house OF
correction and the names Of those who
are sent there On an elevated, some
what bare, tract of country within
few miles Of Tours stands a large
quadrangular building known as La
Colo.de Agricole, which is a govern
ment establishment, and behind the
chapel, which is situated in the center
of the west front, La Maison Pternelle
Is cunningly concealed. 1t is a rec
tangular, two-storied building, adjoin'
ing the east end Of the chapel, and the
FIRST thing that meets the eye upon en-
tering is a huge board bearing the om-
inous word "Silence." The ground floor
occupied by prison-like cells and
Offices; the upper one contains rather
smaller cells and is surrounded by a
gallery, wnich shuts off all communi-
cation with the ground floor. When a
boy or young man under age becomes
inveterately idle, refractory or dissi-
pated his parents or guardians can OBJ
tain the consent of magistrate, which
is sometimes seconded by that Of a
medical man, and aftfr certain papers
have been signed list of questions re-
lating to the boys education apc pres
ent or past peculiaritie-, Is filled up by
the parents and the culprit, who, in
this country would be licked into shape
in a healthy, outdoor fashion is SOL
EMMY handed over to the paternal care
of monsieur lie directeur. The maiA
feature in the treatment is solitary
confinement during incarceration, be it
long or short. Three months Is the
usual time. But cases have been known
In which it has been extended to one
or even two years.

so prompt that on Tuesday, Nov. 6,
he wrote the editor as follows:

A CARD OF THANKS

The following very complimentary
letter from Mr. Edward S. Taft, presi-
dent OF the Sanitary League, is highly
appreciated by the editor Of the Subur-
ban Citizen, but it does not go very far
toward paying the bills incurred by him
or toward re-imbursing him for the time
spent by him since the 5th of last Janu-
airy toward the defeat OF that most vic
ious piece Of legislation known as the
milk bill. Mr.. Taft's letter in full is as
follows;
Washington, D. C., March 9, 1901.
Mr. J M Wood,
Editor Suburban Citizen.
Dear Sir:-Some time ago several
meetings OF the Sanitary League, Of
which | have the honor to be president
we're held for the purpose OF assisting
the darymen of the district and the ad-
jacent sections of Virginia and Mary
land in making a fight against the new
law proposed by Health Officer Wood
ward for the regulation of the traffic
in milk and cream in this city. AS the
editor Of the Suburban Citizen you then
took an active part in the brief cam
paign inaugurated, and which, it was
hoped, would result in the formation Of
a dairymen's association.
Since then you have been instrumen-
tai in preventing the enactment of the
proposed measure by your work in the
interest OF the milk men, and | take this
opportunity to thank you on behalf of
the Sanitary League for your earnest
and valuable labors. While the league
is in no way identified with the dairy
interests of the district, it has all along
held that the bill which the health off
Ger succeeded IN getting through the
Senate, and which, but for your watch
full care, would have gone through the
House, imposed a great many hardships
upon the milk producers who transact
business with the people of the city
and therefore should be defeated AT
the same time the league believes that
every safeguard should be thrown
around the consumers of milk. Dr.
Woodward however, did not go about
the matter in the right way.
Respectfully, etc,
EDWARD S. TAFT.
