Editor of Gloucester County Democrat,
Woodbury., N. J.
DEAR SIR: By pamphlet and circular,
as we'll as by extensive correspondence, l
am endeavoring to call attention to one of
the crying needs of our state, viz: The re-
cessity of aid to the discharged prisoner
after he has paid the penalty of his crime
and is ushered into the community again.
And for this purpose beg little space at
your hands.
We have no Prisoners Aid Society in our
State and, pending the establishment of one
in the near future l am trying to put into
practice plan whereby the men now releas-
ed from State Prison may be tided over the
few critical weeks Immediately following
their release. Briefly stated, my plan pro-
vides that some whole-souled man or woman
take friendly interest in the man and, by
assisting him to find employment, by
kindly counsel, advice, warning when neces-
sary and a combined friendly interest in the
man, he be helped in his struggle TO regain
his former standing and good name in the
community. By thus helping and eneour-
aging the discharged man in his resolves
for good the community is also benefited.
If this encouragement and sympathy is
withheld, and to it are added odium and
i'll will, we know how easily the unfortun-
ate falls again.
- Surely, quite number of your readers
are in position to aid in this good work to
the end that the possibilities here limited at
may become certainties. To all such, and
any others who read these lines and are
actuated by desire to aid in noble cause,
appeal for aid and cooperation.
Whether the replies are favorable, or I'M
favorable. shall be glad to hear from any
and all who care to write for futher inform
alton on this topic which, after all is said, is
of such prime Importance to every commun-
ity which sends prisoners here, and who,
upon completion Of their sentences, in most
eases are bound to return whence they came.
Believe me, Cordially Yours,

NO ACTION TAKEN.
Night Policemen's Examination Be.
 gan at l:30 This AfternOon.

The examination of the six police men, McNiff, ByTnes, Noonan, OHearn and John and Michael Sullivan by the board of public safety yesterday after noon. was conducted in executive ses- sion and had more of the complexion of an interview with the men than an inquiry into their physical condition. There were two reasons given for nav ing the meeting executive. One was that the presence of the reporters nampered the members of the board in questioning the men, and the other was that on account of the nature or the examination it would be hardly fair to them to have their physical discrepancies, if they have any, pub- lished in the papers. This idea orig mated with well known citizen and was expressed in the Democrat few days ago.
 All the members Of the board ex- cept Commissioner Kent were present. and Commissioner Beach presided
 The meeting lasted for over two hours during which the men were asked questions relative to their ph ymcal condition, their term of service, their experiences, their age, the number .n their family. etc. and on account of the absence of Commissioner Kent no decision in the matter was given out, the commissioners preferring to have a full board present before taking any definite action.
 At 1:8O o'clock this afternoon the ex- animation of the night shift began. and at 7:3O this evening the day gang will be called in and examined. Until the entire force is examined definite action will not be taken.

FUNDS TO BE RELEASED.
Attorney Burpee Favored Such Course
 When Strike Was Declared OE.

1t Is possible that the efforts of friends of the labor unions of this city whose funds have been restrained III the various banks by an injunction S1nce the earlier stages of the trolley strike last year, will soon bear good fruit. and that the. funds will be re- leased and the suits against the trolley union and others for S25,OOO damages be withdrawn.
 For some time counsel for the unions have been trying to get relief In this respect. Attorneys O'Neill and Lynch in this city and Danaher in Mer- 1den have broached the matter several times both to the cOmpany's local coun- sel, who until recently was Colonel Burpee, and the general counsel, Allan W. Paige of Bridgeport. But until within few days ago Mr Paige was for continuing the fght to the courts and hampering the unions as far as possible.
 Yesterday, Attoraey Danaher and Colonel B1lrpee heard from MT Paige in a way that gives promise of early relief. He informed Colonel Burpee that as h9 was the instrument that brought the suits and had the injunc- tfons served, he considered 1t his duty to take the necessary steps to have the funds released and the suits with drawn from the superior court docket
 This morning Colonel Burpee was asked if he had done anything in that direction, and he said he had not. that he had not the necessary time, but wifi do so as soon as possible. He also said that in a conversation he had with Attorney Lynch a short time ago about the matter, he expressed conf dence that the unions funds would soon be released and that he favored such course the moment the strike was declared of.
 The amount tied up is about $1O, GOO. and while the unions were in no way hampered to any great extent by the Injunction, having constant flow of money into their coffers, they are nevertheless pleased to be able to use their entire funds again.

Our prices, like the mercury of late, have been going lower and lower un- til they are way below zero. Nothing like a pre-inventory sale and zero weather to put prices where any pocketbook can buy a Trimmed or Untrimmed Hat for half price and less. Our hats must go, even if it takes colder weather to stimulate lower price. Certainly you never found bargains like what We are offer ing 50c on the value and less buys our best goods.
