street one day, and was already com.
fortably full, when it was hailed by
a laborirg man much the worse for
liquor, who presently staggered along
the car between two rows Of we'll
dressed people, regardless of polished
shoes and tender feet.
Murmurs and complaints arose on
all sides, and demands were heard
that the offender should be elected
at once.
But amid the storm of abuse one
friendly voice was raised, as benev.
olent clergyman rose from his seat.

they scatter a myriad liquid diamonds
The air is soft and balmy, sweet with
fragrance of roses, violets. and many
other unseen blossoms. 1t Is a day
when one instinctively takes deep
breaths and the words "Oh! it is good
to live" break forth unbidden. But
here in the midst of beauty and free
dom rises stern grey building. We
pass beneath the Fashioned entrance,
we cross the threshold, and behind us
resounds the clank of the closing iron
door and the echo of shooting bolts
and turning key. What contrast!
Freedom life, beauty without. and
here, heartache, loneliness and incar.
ceration. This is the prison of San
Quentin. In few moments we are
seated on the little platform of the
prison chapel, while before us crowd
ed on the benches are rows and rows,
ana almost countless rows it seems
10 us, OF men dressed in the stripes
of shame. From beyond the barred
windows that look upon the courtyard
comes the shuffling sound of the lock-
step, and around the chapel, with eyes
ever alert, stand the armed guard.
DO these things appal our hearts the
most in that sad scene? Do they
make the shadows darkest and the
atmosphere heavy with the impotency
to help? No! it is something more,
something that tightens around our
hearts, dims our eyes, and seems to
clutch at our throats. 1t is the ex-
preston of utter hopelessness, de-
spar or sullen desolation that can
be read, all too plainly, on those
many upturned faces. Some of them
are pitifully young, some are old and

During the IA years that have
worked for and with our country's
