AN EASTERN CONVICT CAMP
sne in Massachusetts Intended by the State for Minor
 Offenders.

Massachusetts has established | convict camp in the hill country near Rutland. It is a different matter from the convict camps of the south, however, and the oecu- pants are not farmed out for profit, as Is the case in Florida and some of the other states. The new enterprise is undertaken by the state itself and is intended 10 eX- ercise a reformatOry function It is accessory to a farm. No cxper- fenced and hardened sinners are taken to the place; on the con trary, the idea is to establish if as d camp for minor offenders, espe- cially for the incorporate who are not lost to the appeals of their bet ter selves and who have sinned through weakness rather than from intention.
 It is said that the substitution of air, sun, wholesome food and d measure of freedom from the usu al gloom, fouIness, idIeness and lack of care which characterize jails and their keeping has already shown benefcent results, not merely in the physique of the prisoners, which it is never the in ter ? of d state to harm, but upon the moral nature.
 In time a hundred convicts will be kept at work at the Rutland farm, their present employment being chiefly concerned with re. deeming waste land; and it's iso lated position secures them against a public scrutiny that is inevitable in the south, where streets are cleaned and much pub. lie work is done by chain gangs
