THE above note. found yesterday in
Abe Majors clothing, explains
how the revolvers were smuggled
into the penitentiary. John Penglass,
a prisoner who finished a three year
term on Saturday, oct. s. is believed to
have thrown the guns over the wall
some time last week. They We're evil
IDENTIFY thrown over at a point near the
ash Dit. which is near the east wall.
Abe Majors and Frank Connors, two
of the ringleaders in the break, were
employed on the lash gang and had
charge OF the removal of all rubbish
from the cell houses to the ash pit.
Their duties took them to the pit sew
eral times during the day, and they
could easily have picked up the
weapons without being noticed.
Penglass and Majors had been very
intimate for several weeks, so much so
that they feared that they had aroused
suspicion. Penglass at last became
alarmed and evidently requested Majors
not to talk to him. Owing to a change
in the plans. however, Majors, as he
explains in the note, was compelled to
write to Penglass. The alteration in
the plans evidently met with the aD-
proval Of the latter, for the note was
returned TO Majors and was found in
his clothing yesterday.
Planned for Several Months.
The prison officials believe that the
escape had been planned for several
months. Since the early part Of the
summer. Penglass. who was doing time
for a robbery committed near ogden
had been seen frequently with Majors
During the past few weeks, however
they had been apprehensive of falling
into suspicion and exercised more eau

SATURDAY, oct. 3. Penglass was re-
leased from the prison. As is the Gus

FAIR INSPECTORS
NOT A SUCCESS
They Fail to Detect "White
Slave" Girl Immi-
grants.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 1S.-
The woman immigration inspector ex-
pertinent at New York IS pronounced a
failure.
The plan was proposed by Mrs Mar
garet Dye Ellis, of the w. G.. T T.,
and was indorsed by the national off,
GERS of that organization. The presi-
dent was told that hundreds of girls
were being brought over from Europe
for Immoral purposes and were being
landed chiefly at New York and Phila-
delphia. Women inspectors were given
a trial at New York. with the promise
that the plan would be extended il
successful.
In a report to Commissioner General
Sargent on the five women inspectors
who were sworn in early last month,
Commissioner Williams, of New York,
says they have boarded forty-three
steamers, of which thirty-two were
from Europe, and that as a result OF
their inspection ten women were sent
to Ellis Island for special hearing. All
these were subsequently allowed TO
land. Besides, the inspectors gave adj
vice to six or seven women as to a
proper place to stay in the city.
Mr.. Williams says there are only two
lines along which the women inspectors
can work: First. intercepting immoral
women on steamers; second. aiding
with advice women coming here fol
honorable purposes. but who do not
know where to go temporarily.
In the first case Mr.. Williams says it
is is improbable that women inspectors
will ever accomplish anything. He
says improper women can be much
more readily detected by men inspect
ors, and that injudicious questioning by
women inspectors would case serious
trouble to the government.
In the second instance Mr.. Williams
says the desired end could be better
reached by having women who want
advice regarding a stopping place met
at the. dock, and that the women's or
ganiZations could make such an ar
rangement with the steamship compa-
MES. Mr.. Williams adds:
1T is believed that nothing practical
can be accomplished through the pres
ent system of women inspectors"
Mr.. Sargent declined to comment on
Mr.. Williams report, but it is said he
will recommend to Secretary Shaw
that the plan be abandoned.

And the CLEAN of her golden hair,
The snowy kerchief round her neck.
And her throat all white and bare;
A throat so white that indeed it might
An anchorite entice;
And l family heard the parsons word
As he preached Of Paradise.
My arm stole gently round her waist
Until our fingers met:
And a fitting blush made tender flush
OF her cheek grow deeper yet
Snowy and fair the hand beneath.
And brown the palm above.
And the brown closed softly over the

Meet his and look coyly down?
Who would but drink. not care to think
OF envy's jealous frown?

Grow warm on my cheek, and then

GRAVITY suggestive of spring.
Violets are very abundant and beau
tiful and are largely worn as corsage
bouquets. In the East bouquets of all
sorts are worn extensively, even the
men wearing boutonnieres upon all oc-
casions. The florists say that the wear
ing of artificial flowers in the hats and
for trimming gowns helps the bust
ness considerably, just as the use of
artificial palms has increased the sale
of real ones.
A number of innovations in Easter

Will Fiqht mormonisn,.

The election of Reed Smoot to con-
gress may have consequences of a very
far-reaching character, and among 9TH
er things it appears to- have aroused
the women of New York to an ener-
getic crusade against Mormonism
Mrs. Dore Lyon will raise the question
at the first convention of the New
York City Federation of Women's
clubs, to be held on May at the Wal
dorf-Astoria, and meanwhile the Wom-
ems Republican club will have iitera-
ture printed for distribution to the
women's organizations of the city. The
more immediate cause of this agita-
ton is a recent address given before
the Women's Republican clubs by Dr.
Sarah J. Elliott, president of the Inter
denominational Council of Women. DR..
Elliott has lived in Utah, and is most
positive in her assertion of the need for
immediate action against the Nor

$4,000 for Manhattan Hospital.

NEW YORK. March 1S.-Mrs. Ann
Augusta Thomas, widow of Gen. Sam
uel Thomas, and her children. Edward
r. Thomas and Mrs. r. Livingstone
Beeckman, have given $4,000 to the
Manhattan eye. ear and throat hospi-
tai to endow a ward of ten beds to
be known as the Samuel Thomas
Memorial Ward" in the proposed new
hospital building for that institution.
Mr.. Thomas and Mrs. Beeckman have
just received their portions of their
fathers estate. and have voluntarily
made a generous settlement on their
brother, Harold H. Thomas, who was
practically disinherited by the provi-
sions of his fathers will.

ture. It has been well said that none
of the women in the old novels have
any character. unless it is a very bad
character. The offsetting of Amelia by
Becky Sharp must have been a terrible
hint to the youth of the time of the
choice that was offered man in his
matrimonial ventures. The notion that
the good woman is necessarily the dull
woman. and the converse has not yet
been altogether exploded. The only
women of reputation who could afford
in times past a reputation for wit were
women whose pre-eninent position
precluded any resentment of their wit.
This is, perhaps, why so many of the
bon-mots of women that history has
preserved to us come as the utterances
of queens Elizabeth's famous pun.
