PRISON VISIT BARRED,
Excursionists to Thorn aston Will Not
Inspect States Penal Institution.


Augusta people win not have an Op-
portunity to visit the Maine State
prison at Tmomaston this fall as has
been the custom for many years N
the occasion Of the Maine CentrarS
annual excursion to Rockland and
Thomaston, on account of the follow
ing statement which has been sent out
by the State Board of Prison Inspec-
tors, Messrs, William l.. Scribner of
f. P. Mayo of Waterville
and Frank H. Hargraves Of Buxton,
and which prohibits excursions to the
prison:
'tAt the regular monthly meeting Of
the. prison inspectors it was voted to
send word to the Maine Central man
agement that the usual annual eX
cursions from all parts of the State
would not be permitted to visit the
prison this year."
While on the face of this it would
seem to be a radical step, as these ex-
cursions have been allowed for 80
years, yet in view of all the circum-
stances the board of inspectors believe
that the time has come when halt
must be called. Last year the eXcur-
sion brought over 500 people into
Thomaston, many of them in sadly
intoxicated condition. In fact, num-
Der of them were in such a plight that
Warden Norton did not deem it safe to
allow them to enter the institution. A
careful inspection of some of 1.-The
most suspicious ones made it very ap-
