The whole population of Newberry
did not even get a vision of the celes-
tial city even in dream.
There was no dispute about the
time of leaving, because the people
are satisfied.
The matter was not settled by the
"wisest man in Newberry county," be-
cause there is no such man and he is
only myth in the mind of your pro-
fessional man.
There was no quarrel about the
things that affect the welfare of New
berry because the people would not
divide on anything the like of that.
And the clock IS still eight minutes
fast.
But Monroe Wicker says he will set
it right if it will please you, dear
Now, we are all happy and you can
go off and have another vision.

Yes, to noncomprehension of the
true meaning of that golden rule
''the protection of society and the re-
formation of the offender" can be
traced practically every defect of our
system.
In it's name men are prosecuted
when with better comprehension they
should be warned or helped. In its
name first offenders are imprisoned,
when with better comprehension the

dnement is defendend. O irony! Can
we reform men by consigning them

words of it's stanch supporters (the
late Sir Edmund Du Cane) is 'an
artificial state of existence, absolute

The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1910-07-19
THE PURPOSE OF PUNISHMENT.
The Protection of Society and the
Reformation of the Offender.

In the matter of our administra.
ton of justice there is a very sim
pie question to be asked by every
man Of his own conscience: What dc
| I believe is the object of punishment?
Until this question has been asked
and coherently answered by the
community it is obviously as mad to
apply punishment as for a man to
set out to dine with a friend of whose
! address he has no knowledge. The
whole administration Of our justice
at present treads the quicksands of
ambiguity as to the object of punish
ment The vast majority of US have
never put to ourselves the question
at all, being quite satisfied that the
object of punishment is to "serv2
people right" and out of the small
minority who have asked the ques-
tion the far greater number have
given themselves no coherent an
sWer. The object Of punishment is
the protection of society and the re-
formation Of the offender.
This is the simple, sensible truth,
and everything in our administration
of justice which conflicts with it is
falsely, unjustly and stupidity con-
ceived. But it is the commonest
thing in the world for people to ac-
cept that definition without consider
ing in the least what it means.
The confusion arises from not
keeping the idea of the protection of
society closely enough coupled with
the idea of the reformation of the

MOUSE POWER.
How a Scotch Inventor Made the Lit.
tie Rodents Work.

Since the days when man discov.
cred the uses to which he might pu1
his domesticated animals, no more
curious form of animal power to
operate machinery has been record
ed than that devised by canny Scot
one David Hutton, who, in the last
century, conceived the notion of put
ting mice to work for him.
Hutton had seen certain toys and
trinkets manufactured by the pris-
oners in a French jail. His attention
had been especially attracted by a
little toy house there, with a wheel
in the gable, that was caused to re-
volve rapidly by a mouse of the COM
mon house variety. Hutton bought
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1910-07-19

this device, and for long time it
afforded him much amusement, but
later he began seriously to consider
how "half-ounce power,sS sthe
weight of the mouse) might beap-
piled to some practical end. It final
ly occurred to him that the manu-
facture Of sewing thread might be
aided in this way. -, ;
Now, it happened that during the
course of the Scots experiments and
investigations he ascertained that an
ordinary mouse would average run
of ten and one-half miles per day;
but he got one mouse that actually
did the extraordinary distance Of 18
! miles in that time. A halfpenny's
worth of oatmeal porridge was found
to be sufficient to feed it for period
Of 35 days, during which time it
made 1862 miles.
From that time Hutton enlisted the
constant services of two mice to pro-
pei his mill for the making of sew
ing thread. This mill was so con-
structed that the mouse was able TO.
twist, twine and reel from 100 to 100
threads day, Sundays not except
ed, for the Scot did not permit his
religious convictions to interfere
with the project.
To perform this task the little rod
ent was obliged to cover it's ten and
one-half miles day, which, however,
the mouse could do with ease. On
the halpenny's worth of oatmeal por-
ridge, lasting five weeks, one of the
little fellers made $3.50 threads 25
inches long, and inasmuch as one
penny was paid to women for every
hank made in the ordinary way, the
mouse at the rate mentioned earned
Is cents every six weeks.
So, allowing for board and for ma
,hinery, there accrued to Hutton a
yearly profit from each mouse of
$50. Just as the inventor, having
demonstrated the feasibility Of his
olan, was preparing to enlarge the
cope of his enterprise by setting up
$1,000 of these mouse mills, he was
tricken by the illness that resulted
n his death.-Harper's Weekly.

dream I had the other night means
dreamed that the entire popula-
ton Of Newberry was invited to come
to heaven at a certain time, the ex-
act minute being stated. Everybody
in Newberry wanted to go to heaven
but a dispute Immediately arose as to
whether they should present them
selves at the celestial gates at the
exact minute according to the town
clock, or the exact minute according
to the time as given from Washington,
by which the railroads and the tele-
graph companies and everything else
except Newberry's town clock and
Monroe Wicker's street hands are
governed, in the matter of time. Fin
ally the ''Wisest man in Newberry
county''-I believe there is such
man, according to one of the men,
bers of one of our professions my
dream I didn't get clear vision of
MIN and ] don't know who he is-sug-
gested that We present ourselves at
the gates at the exact minute as point
ed out by the town clock. We all
went, and we got there between seven
and eight minutes ahead of time. Dur
ing those seven or eight minutes we
discussed various matters affecting
or which had affected the welfare of
NeWoerry-for none of us ever ex-
pected, of course, to see Newberry
again, and We couldn't agree, and in
the midst of our disagreement the
gates were opened. When the gates
were opened our dissensions were in
evidence, and they wouldn't allow any
of US to enter. About that time I
woke up-or awaked-with the per-
spiration rolling off me. Whether the
perspiration was an indication of the
place We all would have gone to in my
dream if had slept on I DO not know
If you are a reader of dreams, 7
would like for you to tell me what
my dream was a sign Of.
