Some Prison improvements.

Superintendent James, of the state
penltentiary, is making a number OF
improvements intended to better the
condition Of the prison and make it
more secure. Probably no changes will
be made in the construction OF the pris-
on wall, but it will be more thoroughly
guarded so as to prevent the introduC-
tion Of weapons by that means. The
number of day guards on the wall has
recently been reduced by the transfer
Of one guard to the shops.

house greeted Capt. Richard Pearson
Hobson, who spoke on the subject of
"A Message from the Seas" The SER
vice was held under the auspices of
the Y. NJ. C.. A, and was productive
Of great good. Mrs. Harry Cammack,
of Chicago, favored the audience with
a delightful vocal solo, 'Recitative and
ARIA
The address of Capt. Hobson was
thoroughly enjoyed by all and the
speaker began by a recital Of the work
Of the Y. M. c. A. as noted by his OBJ
servations in the different nations and
in the army and navy. He paid a
glowing tribute to the efficiency Of
their work and said that he personally
had been a member of the Association
for the past eighteen years. He then
drew his message from the seas; the
geographical fact of the earth being
th~ree-fourths water AID one-fourth
land showed that the sea had indeed
some lessons TO teach. The grand
and wonderful work Of the Creator,
in the arrangement Of the solar sys-
tenn and the provision which had been
made for mankind in the resources OF
of nature, showed the thought and
care Of an all-wise Providence. From
this thought the speaker drew lessons
of wisdom and proved that he had
been a deep student in the vast book
Of nature as applied to the varied
needs of man. After having been en-
dowed with all these privileges and
blessings, mans first duty was to use
these powers for the betterment OF
mankind. Capt. nobson is a speaker
of great power and his arguments are
plain and convincing. At times he
would rise to the heights of eloquence
and seemingly with the vision of a
prophet he would depict the future
possibilities of national achievement
His work was a grand uccess and al
rejoiced in the fact of having heard
him as a speaker.

.wORATORICAL CONTEST.
Intercollegiate State Meeting Will
Be a Big Affair.

According to present indications,
Oskaloosa will witness on Thursday
and Friday of this week such a DEM
onstration of college spirit and en-
thusiasm as it will not be her privilege
to see again in years. The State Ora
~torical contest on Friday evening wiz
be of the most interest to the general
public, as it will not be as exclusively
a collegiate affair as the banquet on
the preceding evening. About a hun
dred delegates from the various insti-
~tutions over the state will be in at
tendance at the banquet besides about
the same number from Penn and the
city, and some of the nearby schools
expect to send a large number of 9th.
ers to swell their delegations at the
contest.
For the first time in a number OF
years, Grinnell will be represented on
the program and they are preparing
to come in force. There will be two
ladies on the contest this year but
their respective colleges, Cornell, OF
Mt. Vernon, and Upper Iowa Univer.

all alarmed by this fact. Indeed the
latter institution appears to think that
they are sure to win and will send a
big delegation. Penn, while she will
not appear on the program, does not
intend to fail behind the others in
spirit and the students a been
gathering at o 10 for the past two or
three days to practice yells. Most OF
the colleges will have seats reserved
for their delegates so that all the repre-
sentatives of each school can sit to-
gether. This will give them a chance
to give their yells to the best advan-
tage and they can be depended upon
not to let the chance slip.
The program will be varied by the
best musical talent that a be secur-
ed from the different schools. Among
others the Penn Glee Club will sing,
and Hans Albert, the well known VIC
linist Of Iowa Wesleyan University,
will also probably appear.
Friday morning the chapel exercises
will begin at 900 instead of $3.50 as
usual, as they will be quite prolonged.
There will be a musical program and
speeches by persons who have at one
time or another been on the contest.
1t is not yet definitely known who the
speakers will be. The following must
cal numbers will be rendered:
1. Don't Ye Cry, Ma Honey"
2. Kammeroi Ostrow-Rubenstein,
By John Casio.
3. Serenade-form Ben Hur," by
Miss Elsie Adler.
4. Piano Duet-SeIected, by Leone
Woody and Mabel Cleaver.
5. Your Presence Weber, by Prof.
L. f. Burnett.
Five committees have charge Of the
work of preparation for the event and
they have been working hard for some
time. The entertainment committee,
composed of Walter Thornburg, chair
man, Roscoe Coffin, Faye West, Lucille
Rosenberger and Cecil Woody will
meet the trains Thursday to welcome
the delegates as they arrive.

timely address in which he referred
to the day celebrated as the birthday
of Washington, and from this he pro
ceeded to draw lessons of profit re
garding the life and work of the ideal
American citizen and his attitude re,
garding the nations of the earth. AS
an illustration Of the difference in
spirit, between the reign of Industrial
ism and that of the DarDarIc militar-
ism of the old world, he spoke of the
Spanish-American war, how Is,
war prisoners were marched out of
Santiago and fed from army and navy
r%ations, instead of being starved into
submission. And again at the close of
the war, when Dewey at Manila and
Sampson and Schley at Cuba had de-
stroyed two Spanish squadrons and
complete surrender had been enforced,
instead of requiring millions for war
indemnity, the government paid the
Spanish 81, 200, 900 and then sent their
armies home on transports. The bur-
den of Hobson's addresses are I'M
doubtedIy the placing of the navy in
a position of supremacy on the sea- or
the world and the gradual overthrow
of the spirit Of militarism, which has
been handed down by tradition and
conquest from the nations of the old
world. He firmly believes that Amer
lea has it in her power to establish the
spirit of a common brotherhood
among nations and that God has
placed the responsibility Of this work
on the Christian nations of the world.

Hattiesburg daily progress. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 18??-1909, 1903-04-21

1t is to be hoped that the Christian
people of this city will take up tho
matter suggested in the communication
in the Progress last week by "Citi-
zen" in regard to the disrepntable
houses and take some action in the
matter. When it is stated and stated
as a fact that no other community
would suffer such blot on its good
name for twenty-four hours it is a
little surprising that the inmates OF
these houses are allowed to remain
and carry on their nefarious work IL
open violation of the laws of the state
or the laws of decency. 1t is the
greatest curse to some young men and
boys of the city that could have been
concocted in the mind of human be-
ing. Enticed into these dens boys are
made drunk and if they have but a
nickel that is taken, and if the mat
ter grows much worse it will be death
for dime. We need no state laws
to protect our families. The unwrit-
ten law-the move-on law-will
suffice. Let it be applied

THE GOVERNOR CENsURED.

The people here are not looking
upon the governor with goody- good
eyes. They are looking at him with
an expression that fully indicates that
they have been taking something that
was exceedingly sour.
A white man by the name of Price,
who was charged and convicted of sell
ling whiskey without the proper
license, has given the city authorities
considerable trouble. He was tried
in the mayors court when he took an
appeal to the circuit court. He was
tried in this court and convicted and
sentenced to the county farm for three
months and fine of five hundred dol
lars imposed. He took an appeal to
the state supreme court and that court
affirmed the decision of the lower
court. In the face of all this Governor
Longino has given him pardon.
Mr.. Price is not bad man in the
full acceptation of the term. He is
very quiet man, and so far as the
Progress knows is strictly temperate.
But were he a saint we cannot see
