The Modern Prison Apartments to
Defy Jail Breakers

A prisoner in the new section of the
Tombs, in New York is ticketed and
placed in a steel pigeon-hole until
his time is served. He may console
himself with the fact that he is rest
ing in one of the most modern cells
in the world. for the recently-complet-
ed wing of this famous prison en-
bodies all that is new in prison-cell
construction. The walls, ceiling and
floors of the cells are of special tool
proof steel, made under strict super
vision, and tested by drills every six
inches and on the edges by saws
Each cell is eight feet long, six feet
wide and eight feet high, and resem-
bles nothing so much as steel pigeon
hole, the several cells being arranged
in rows in tiers, four high in each
story. The walls between the cells
are composed Of two quarterback
plates, between which is riveted
sheet of lead to deaden sound and pre-
vent intercommunication between the
prisoners. The floors are covered
with two-inch bluestone slabs, in two
pieces, with rubbed upper surfaces.
The stones are imbedded in cement
and mortar and the points packed
with hemp and then run full of molten
lead. Each cell contains a steel bunk
fastened to the wall, hinged steel
table, steel shelf and two clothes
hooks riveted to the wall. The in
terror of the cell is painted white
and cream. The doors are fastened
with three locks--a dead lock. a snap
lock and lever lock. all of which
may be used separately or together.
An airing court is provided on the
fourth story, which is used for an ex-
ercising place for prisoners.

FIRE COMPANIES
REFUSE: T0UNITE

Efforts are being made to unite
the Brandywine, Independence and
Rescue Fire Companies into one
company, but with little Success.
Members of the companies have
been approached on the subjec'
quietly, but they have said little te,
encourage the men who wish to
make the combination.
The argument being used in favor
of the three companies combining is:
that City Council would recognize
one fire company, and that the or
ganization formed by the union OF
the three companies named would
be the strongest and largest COM
pany in the city. 1t is also asserta%i
that as long as the three companies
remain apart none will be. recog-
nized.
An unfortunate part Of the con-
troversy is that both the Brandy
wine and Independence Companies
have purchased sites for their engine
houses, and neither would be chos-
FL if the companies should unite
This evening the Twelfth ward viii
take up the subject Of fire protec-
tion and a meeting will be held Il

pose Of forming the Union Fire
Company, which is intended to pro-
tect the Twelfth ward.

FREE LIBRARY:
CONTROVERSY.

Secretary Bartram of the Board Of
Education is busy preparing a state
ment which will be submitted at the
next meeting OF the Board, showing
how mnch the free library has cost
the Board of Education and whether
the money came from City Council or
the Board. Both bodies claim TO be
supporting the library.
The claim of the members of Coun-
Gil is that in 1893, when the free
library was established, the appropria-
tion of the Board Of Education was
increased S.. 600, and that it was
paid five per cent. increase a year on
the increased figures, which has
amounted to the same thing as though
Council had each yeargiven the board
the money>which it expends on the
library The law providing for the
free library clearly shows tnat Coun.
Gil must provide for the the funds
which the city pays, and the minutes
Of Council Show that in the year in
which the library was started there
was So. 500 given toward it in cash,
and also that an increase in the ap-
preparation for the Board OF Educa-
tion was made for some reason. pre-
