SWISS JAIL LIFE EASY;
C0MViCTS WON'T ESCAPE.
Board and Room In Prison, Work and
Loaf Outside.

Prison life in Switzerland is a lux
ury instead of punishment. The
comic opera Jail at Thorburg. where
the inmates did as they pleased. has
only recently been suppressed by the
Berne authorities. yet details are pub
lished of a similar institution at Sar-
men, in the canton of Oswald
Sarnen is apparently an ideal penal
resort, for the happy criminals who
are sentenced 10 terms of detention"
in THAI institution have far better
time than hundreds of free" Swiss
citizens who are forced to earn tleir
bread.
A correspondent Of a Lausanne pa
per states that he was passing through
Sarncn when ne saw Il number Of men
dressed in dark blue clothes with
white stripes walking about the vii
lace smoking and joking.
Others were seated in a cafe. and
some were working In leisurely man.
ner carrying bricks for the construc-
ton of a now building. To his aston
ishment the correspondent found that
the men were colvicts from the can
tonal prison close by.
These convicts are permitted to leave
the prison early in the morning and
find work around Sarnen or walk
about the country until nightfall. when
they return of their own accord to the
prison.
They are unaccompanied by warders,
and there is nothing to prevent their
escaping, but they are far too COM
Portable to think Of relinquishing their
quarters. for they have as much liber-
ty as other men and are, moreover.
fed and lodged for nothing.
The money earned by these convicts
who choose to work can be spent as
they like. One convict who is en-
ployed as a gardener by local magis-
trate sends his monthly salary to his
wife and children.
Two or three convicts escaped"
some weeks ago. but they eventually
returned to the prison in half fam
ished condition, and after being Sc
verely reprmanded they were allowed
to return to their apartments.

The award to the author of "Chan-

that the tremendous display Of plum

DEATH OF MRS. j. c. BURCHER.
Communicated.

On Jan. %, 1910, at her home in
Scranton, Lena L., wife of J. c.
Burcher, died, and her gentle spirit
passed to God, who gave it. She
was the daughter of Isaac and Re-
becca Lovelass, Fallsdale, and for a
number of years one of Wayne coun-
tvs successful teachers.
On Oct 81, 1900. she was united
in marriage to JudsOn C. Burcher
and has since resided in Scranton.
She is survived by her husband,
a six-year-old son, Donald, her faith
er and mother, Mr.. and Mrs. Isaac
Lovelass, one brother Homer, of
Pittston, and one sister, Laura, who
resides with her parents.
Services were held at her beauti-
full home, $40 Richmond street,
Scranton, on Thursday evening, Jan.
27th, where a large concourse of
friends gathered to pay their last
tribute of love and respect to her
memory. Many beautiful floral
pieces gave evidence of the esteem
in which she was held.
The following day the remains
were brought to Calkin's Union
church, Damascus, where the funer-
al services were held, and the body
inferred in the nearby cemetery.
Rev. c. II. Olmstead of the Scran-
ton Asbury NJ. r. church, of which
she was member, assisted by Rev.
Joseph Coleman of Damascus, con-
Quoted the services.
Mrs. Burcher's early life was
passed in Fallsdale and she loved il
well. She was much attached to her
loved ones; the ties of nature were
strong with her She was an unas-
suming. consistent christian, loved
by all who knew her; but the grim
reaper, has severed the tie that
bound her heart in love to her kind
red and friends and now only a
mound of earth is left to those who
mourn her untimely departure; no,
there is more than that left-the
memory of a well-spent life, a noble
example of christianity that we may
well emulate, and the assurance that
lit is well with her soul"
The bereayed husband and little
son, as they return to their lonely
home, have the love and sympathy
of the entire community.
