THE RED SHIRTS.
Convicta Who Wear Them In the
Penitentiaries OF California.

Convfcta Who Wear Them In the
Penitentinries OF California.
There are men in the penitenraries
OF California who are favored With
red shirts, but they are not made par
ticularly happy thereby.
When n convict has once worn the
crimson shirt, he hopes as ardently as
a convict can hope for anything that
the warden will never make him wear
It again. 1t means that he has tried
to escape and failed.
But that is not all Henceforth he
IS a degraded man in prison circles.
His time credits are gone. solitary
confinement, dungeons and bread and
water may be his portion. He is
watched, suspected by the officers,
pointed out and explained" to visitors
and newcomers. Among the 700 con-
victs in the jute mill his req back may
be distinguished at a glance. If he be
away from there a moment, the guards
know 1t. Then the prison bell rings.
the officers assemble, bloodhounds are
unclaimed, and the hunt begins.
Some OF the red shirters at San
Quentin are among the most daring
fellows that ever scaled prison wall.
and every man of them has run the
gantlet Of guard and Gatling gun. Any
body in stripes who breaks for liberty
is liable to be riddled with lead within
60 seconds. The conyicts know this,
but they also know that beyond tho
gray stone walls there are green hills
and deep ravines and-possibly-fre
dom. The man who is sentenced to die
on prison cot is willing to stake his
life for liberty. His days and nights
are spent preparing for the game. II
he wins, the ICONS" he leaves behind
are jubllant, and many are the tales
Of pluck and luck they will tell in
memoriam. AS a rule, no class OF
people stand by each other like veter.

Lnnd of Many Thirsts.

The Egyptian never travels without
his goolah. He fills it with filtered
water and in the morning can COM
mand a pint or more Of water cooled
by evaporation through the unglazed
clay. This precious fluid he does not
waste on unsatisfed thirst. Taking of
the long white wrap and the piece Of
cloth that covers his head during sleep,
the native pours the water over his
head, neck and hands. The European,
with all his instinct for cleanliness,
seeks first to relieve his overmastering
thirst.
There are in Egypt as many thirsts
as plaques. but the dust thirst is the
worst. Every pore is sealed; the throat
is q lump of dry clay, and one feels
what it must be to be a mummy.-Lon-
don Standard.

THE soUIRE's DILEMMA.
He Adjourned the Case TO Find Out
where He Was At.


where He Was At.
A justice Of the peace in one of the
west end boroughs issued a warrant
for the arrest of a west end woman for
slander. Squire S. j. White happened
to be present at the hearing The pros
ecutor testified that the defendant had
called her an "old virago" and. that she
had added, Il don't know what that
means, but whatever 1t is that's what
you are" The witness admitted that
she did not know what the meaning Of
the word was, either, but she knew
it had no good meaning or the other
wouldn't have made use Of it.
"No matter what It means" said the
squire, who is an intensely patriotic
American, tits a foreign name, and
she had no business calling you it. I'll
fine her for It."
Squire" whispered Squire White in
his ear, "you have no Jurisdiction in
slander suits. They must be entered
in court"
"WFell, I'll hold her for court, then" )"
the squire declared.
"But there's no law under which you
can do that" he was told.
"Wen, III hold her anyhow" he re
piled, "and test the constitutionality
Of the act"
"But there is no act" persisted
Squire White.
Get out Of this officer commanded
the squire, turning on him. "Do yor
think I'm going to allow you to come
in here and learn me the lawT
you uns go, too,' he said, turning
to the women. You're both released
on your own rec-ogg-ni-zance until thii
