Y Only, twenty-one prisons in ffteen
states and territories have provided
special places for the treatment of
their Tuberculosis prisoners. These in
situations can accommodate, however,
only 800 patients. In three-fourtns Of
the major prisons and in practically
all the jails of the country the tuber-
culous prisoner is allowed freely to
infect his fellow prisoners very few
restrictions being placed supon his
habits. When the congregate mode Of
prison life is considered, the danger Of
infection. becomes greater than In the
general population. New York and
Massachusetts, are the only states
where any systematic attempt has
been made to, transfer all tuberculous
prisoners to one central institution.
The largest prison tuberculosis hospi-

tions for 200 prisoners are provided.
The next largest is Clinton prison hos

Thieves Who Are "Experts.v

There are thieves who are experts
in the articles which they collect"
Five years ago there was a series of
daring robberies In Queens gate and
Grosvenor gardens. Over thirty
houses were entered. In every case
nothing was taken except two or
three small articles, but these were
always the very best in the house.
No connoisseur could possibly have
chosen better than this nocturnal ad-
yenturer What Is more, nothing Of

big prices.

light late Thursday afternoon and
