PRISONERS ARE NOT GRATEFUL
Leave Swiss Lookup With

Scant Ceremony.
The prison authorities of Torbel,
Switzerland, are grieved at the in
gratitude of three murderers who
recently strolled away from the pleas
ant quarters provided for them, and
they have not yet returned 1t is
said to be the first time on record a
prisoner ever voluntarily left the
Torbel lookup.
1t is the aim of those in charge OF
that charming resort to make the
Jail such an attractive place prisoners
will be contented with their lot and
not strive to escape. There are few
guards-only one to every twenty
five prisoners-and they never think
of offending their guests by carrying
arms. They keep themselves out OF
sight as much as possible SO as to
not hurt the tender feelings of the
inmates.
The cells are left open, so the
prisoners can communicate freely
with each other, and newspapers,
writing materials and magazines are
provided for their amusement. Cider
and various dainties from the kitch-
en- are furnished. Fried eggs, of
which the guests are exceedingly
fond, play a prominent part in the
bill of fare.
Naturally such an earthly paradise
is most popular, and inmates leave
ties were shocked when the three
murderers went away without even
saying good-by.

The man whose coal supply has
been visibly weak and given to dizzy
spells all winter, is not apt to see the
pathetic side of the coal ultimatum
on the part Of the arbitration board.
To one who has been warmed all
winter long by a Steamboat lease,
taken in the warm and beautiful
months of a glorious autumn, there
cannot but come a feeling sof COM
passion for Mr.. Baer and others who
are getting round-shouldered trying
to be fair to a tickle public. For years
these men of many cares and numer-
Gus coal mines, have been protecting
the people by keeping the price of
coal at such a stage that men could
really mine it and live at the wages
paid them But the ungrateful pub
lie sided with the miners and now
the mine owners are compelled to
take the difference in wages out of
the public instead. This is all well
enough as long as it lasts. but the
tickle miners are quite apt to become
disgruntled and take the part of the
public just as the public has taken
the part of the miners. The result is
worrying. but to date no one of the
coal Footballs has suggested that
proflts be curtailed a little They
seem to have entirely overlooked
themselves in this matter. Such
broad forgetfulness of self is indeed
worthy OF commendation. Bless
