The revolutionary suggestions Of
Governor Sanders that the state dis
pose 6f its large penitentlary farms,
and put the convicts on the road in
the construction of permanent high
ways. II carried out, will be an up
turning of Louisiana'S convict policy
of recent years, and would place up
on the market some of the most valu-
able plantations in louisiana Those
who oppose any change in the system
oppose it on the ground that the
state, in this system, has found the
most profitable and most humane
way to take care of its convicts, and
that instead of costing the state
something to keep them up, the con-
victs will soon be earning a revenue
for the state. The argument in fa-
vor of the convicts on the roads, Is
that out of their services the state,
in the construction of permanent
highways, will get something that
will be of service to the entire state.

GAY SWISS CUSTOM.
Festive Day Dates Back to the
Romans.

March l is a day of joyful festiyity
among the school children in most
CT the Engadine communes. At 4
O'Clock in the morning a party OF
schoolboys march through the village
changing cowbells, big and little. with
all their might, to proclaim the dawn
of boisterous day to their slumber-
ing schoolmates still abel.
As the day grows bright the boys
gather, each one with a huge bell
hung round his neck, on the village
square where they form In ranks
according TO their sizo. When the
preparations, always conducted amid
great excitement and Juvenile jubila-
tion, have been completed, the pro-
cesEion starts on a tour through the
streets to the accompaniment Of furi-
Gus bell ringing and noisy yodelling.
One OF che eldest of the deEonstra-
tors, with a milk pail on his shoulder.
in the costume Of a dairyman, with
yellow breeches, white stockings, low
shoes, finally embroidered braces over
a shirt of spotless white, turned up
sleeves displaying a hrawny arm, the
dsiryman'j hat pe?chsd jauntily On
the back OF his head, marches proud
ly at the head of the herd. At the
end of the procession Is another big
boy with big staff in his hand, like
a herdman.
All this reminds us of the way the
COWS go to the Alps to the sound
CT bells. The whole festival IS moth
ing but a spring celebration to her
all the return of the milder sea-
sen, which has been looked forward
to with longing for months.
The custom is said to be Of Roman
origin, hence its name "Chalanda
MARI" (from Kalendare). which jus.i-
fes the assumpt on that, from the pa
rod OF the year chosen for the o.
servance of the festival, 1t must have

and not in the cold cline of the En-.
gadine.
In the way described the troop
marches on from house to house, and
IS presented by the matrons with rice,

vine end money. The hotels are al!

the proceeds a general jollification Is
provided, at which the girls Of the
neighborhood take part How intense
