Any man that expects 20 do much in

ALICE CONTROLS DELAWARE
His Signal to Addicks Crowd WouIs
Elect a Senator at Once.

DOVER, Del, March LIMITED
States Senator Alice is now master of
the Delaware senatorial situation. A
signal from him would be obeyed by
the Addicks faction in the legislature
and the vacancy at Washington be
filled.
DR.. Caleb r. Layton, retiring secre-
tary of state, who has gone to his
home at Georgetown to stay, is no
longer influential with the Addicks
men. Shorn of his Office and soured by
the failure to induce Governor Lea to
reappoint MIN, he is a political nonen-
tity. Addicks himself counts so little
that it is doubtful if even an order di-
rect from him to the Addicks band
would change their course. Out of
the lost cause Alice alone remains a
power, with two years yet to serve in
the senate.
1t is believed, however, that the AL
lee-Addicks following will be further
reduced this week.

GREAT PRISON LEAGUE is Ex-

May Form Organization Among the

State Penitentary.

Mrs. Maud Ballington Booth, head
of the prison work for the Volunteers
of America, is expected to arrive in
Walla Walla shortly for the purpose of
organizing Prison League among the
convicts at the state penitentiary. Mrs.
Booth is now on the Sound and ex-
poets to visit every city of prominence
in the northwest
The lock step in vogue in all prisons
throughout the country is one of the
evils that Mrs. Booth is endeavoring
to work up sentiment against with a
view of having it eliminated as one OF
the rules of all prisons. She declares
that the rules and regulations of the
average Jail are such as to unfit a
man for any calling but that of GRIM
inal after he has once served a sem
tence. According to Mrs. Booth there
is great deal of good in every con-
Wet, no matter how hardened a Grim
inal ne may be.
Mrs. Booth has been instrumental in
the founding Of the Hope homes in
New York and Illinois, where dis
charged convicts may find haven of
rest Out of 5000 ex-convicts careJ.
for at these two homes only five per
cent of these have returned to their
old ways of living.
