eRgAT REFORM IN GEORGIA.
State has Taken Its conviets from
the Lessees and VIII Work Them
on the Public Roads

Atlanta. April Georgia began the
day yesterday with rev conditions,
so far as its faulty convict lease sys-
tenn was concerned.
All over the state the prisoners
were taken from various plants and
industries to be placed in the service
of the state.
Georgia has no state penitentiary.
For years her convicts have been sold
into the mines. into the brick kilns,
into the factories. where private greed
sometimes demanded and collected its
last ounce of human flesh and its final
drop of human blood But the state
decided to abolish this traffic in white
as wei as black slaves. so instead of
selling its 1900 prisoners, it viii work
them on the public roads.
The change went into effect at day
light yesterday morning. The convicts
were returned to the counties in which
their crimes had been committed.
Most of the unf0rtunates are blacks
Of a low order of intelligence, sem
fenced for every conceivable crime.

AND THEN MAMMA UNDERSTOOD
Must Have Had a Hard Time Explain
ing to tho Minister.

The new minister was making his
first call and was waiting for mamma
pin the drawing room. Little sister and
her elder were holding an earnest con-
fab in the hall. You dassent," said
the elder, in tense, small tones. you
just see," said Little Sister, proudly.
And she danced off into the drawing
room, an angelic figure in daintiest
white, her fiossy curls of shadowy
gold clinging around neck and brow,
her big blue eyes as innocent and con-
fiding as a mothers and her flowerlike
face meriting any impulse Of reverent
admiration which the occupant of the
room might be moved to feel.
When mamma appeared, just as Lit
tie Sister danced out of the door again,
she thought the expression of the
minister was rather curious, and that
he seemed to be making an effort to
control it. Also his manner was en-
barrassed and his call was very brief.
Pondering over these things and a
good deal puzzled, she remembered
seeing Little Sister leave the draw
ing room as she entered 1t. The small
maiden was forthwith summoned and
asked what she had talked about with
the minister. ..a...
"Nothing-much," she faltered.
Tell me exactly what you said to
him." mamma demanded sternly.
ut 1T wasn't anything = much -
just little story Edith and made
up to tell the janitor's little girls
They were down there in the yard
when you made us come DIP yester-
day, and they told us such yarns,
mamma! You never heard such
things! And Edith and 1, we said we
wouldn't have them growing over us
that way II we got a chance to slip
down there again. And so we made
up little story to tell them, and
Edith said dassent go in and tell it
to the minister, and so, of course,
did,
And what was IT? Tell me exactly
what you said"
1T wasn't ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS !"
the small voice faltered. II just told
him that my papa came home last
night as drunk as he could be and
kicked my mamma over and jumped
up and down on her stummick And,
mamma. the minister did look so
funny and s'prised!"

The Bitter ait.

A week or two ago an attendant at
one of tho big theaters on the Paris
botuevards found fine pear necklace
which she handed over to the box
office. One of the spectators, lady,
saw the woman pick up the necklace,
and went to the box-office and claimed
1t as her own. To mark her appre-
citation Of the attendants honesty she
gave her 20 francs. The next day.
however, the real owner Of the neck.
lace presented herself at the theater to
make inquiries. On hearing what had
occurred she burst into a laugh, and
explained that the pearls were but int.
tation,, and had ccst her 12 francs only.
So the, smart 'ladyF loses ut least
eight francs on the transaction.
