Chicago Aus. THE most disgraceful

name OF law and civilization is the coun

maintaining free schools Of crime in
every county in the United States.
This arraignment of the penal institu-
tions OF this country was given by Or
Charles r. Henderson at the University
OF Chicago last night at the conclusion
Of a lecture upon modern prison systems
Professor Henderson recently retired as
president OF the Central prison board and
since he has made special study OF
crime and criminals and has issued sew

There is no necessity for the present

The Bulgarian inhabitants in a number
OF villages have fed 10 the mountains for

ment OF 10000 soldiers, and In view OF the
impoverished treasury the government
will find IT difficult TO comply with the re-
quest.
In spite OF reports to the contrary IL Ia
confidently believed in we'll informed
