An all-new program of vaudeville
comes to the Pavilion to-day. The new
acts are; comedy singing travesty by
RYAN and Mears, and singing, dane
ing and musical act by Jack McCourt.
Mr. McCourt is acknowledged as one
of the best accordion players in yaude-
vile. and his act consists mostly of
accordion solos. Many people do not
know of the music that can be produced
with one of these instruments in the
hands of an expert To those who have
not heard this instrument properly
played. Mr.. McCourt will be a treat, as
he plays music of all kinds, from rag
time to grand opera. The picture pro-
gram, which is the same as was shown
last night, is excellent all the reels be-
ing exceptionally good, with the Edi-
sor picture, entitled Pull for the Shore,
Sailor" shade the best. This pic
ture is adapted from Elizabeth Stuart
Phelps story, "The Madonna of the
Tabs" and is certainly a gem in mo-
tioE pictures. 1t is finely portrayed,
holds the interest from start to finish
and, in many places, brings tear of
genuine sympathy for the poor little
laundress and her children.

Gerrnany,s Industrial Life.

The industrial life of Germany gives
the impression of great street crowd
ed with heavy traffic. This traffic is
formed of units, but all have com
mon purpose and direction, and it is
well regulated. 1t is aggressive, noisy
and dangerous to those who brave its
competitive perils. 1t is artificial as it
caters to the needs of man largely out
side the actual necessities for subsist-
ence, and it is subject to increases or
decreases, congestions or even sudden
stoppages; for, unlike the bulk of the
traffic OF the United States, it is not
the irresistible flow of mighty river
of natural products seeking the level of
supply and demand. Ever increasing its
volume, ever extending its zone of in
fuence, the foreign trade of Germany
is the marvel Of the twentieth century.

How a Prisoner Feels When He Enters
the Penitentiary.

In the February American Magazine
there is the first OF new series OF ar
ticles on "The Man in the Cage" 1t
is an account of the prisons of America
what the prisoners do and how the
states in most cases fail to handle
them with wisdom. The following is an
interesting extract
"The first shock of arrest and inn
prisonment is, to the first offender, the
great crisis of his life. He realizes,
suddenly and wildly, that the state is
not merely political abstraction out
of long forgotten school book, but
thing alive, armed with jaw and claw.
The effect of this is overwhelming
There lives no human animal more peni-
tent and plastic than the first offender
on his first day in prison. On that
day. of all days, the state can mold him
easily to its civic needs. Turn him
over to man who believes in the bot
tom good in him; teach him a trade
whereby he may learn to support him
self honestly when released; give him
share in his earnings so that he may,
even though in prison, support his in
nocent wife and helpless children-or,
if be is alone, save bit of capital
against that blacklist day in his whole
life, the distant day of liberation; in
other words, give him work and hope,
the two things which all men need in
order to live, and you win have set
linn on the road to citizenship De-
priye him of work and hope and you
will as surely have set him on the road
to criminality.
'This is so obvious truth that one
would expect it to be the very corr
ncrstone of our penal system. But the
melancholy fact is that there are not
ten prisons in the country to-day which
teach the prisoner useful trade, and
scarcely one, so far as / know, which
permits him to make any reasonably de-
cent provision for his dependent FAM
lily; and in nearly half of the states Of
the Union he is sold to private trad
er, called prison contractor, for an
average of not much more than fifty
cents day. At best, the contractor is
q business man; at worst, a merciless
shaver He has absolutely no interest
human or other, in the prisoner; and
the prisoner shas no rights which he need
respect.
"This is the heart of the prison prob
lem as it eonfronts us in America to-
day"
