Warden GarVin.

Warden Albert Garvin of the
state prison in Connecticut, arrived
in Saltwater on Wednesday of last
week, accompanied Warden VOL
fer who had been on trip in the
East.
Mr.. Garvin was formerly Warden
of this institution; resigning his po-
sition twenty years ago on the 7th
of June to accept the position of
chief of police in St. Paul. He was
succeeded here by Warden Wolfer
Speaking of Warden Garvin the
Saltwater Gazette says: Since leav-
ing Minnesota Mr.. ,Garvin has been
warden of the state prison in Con-
necticut for IA years. Recently that
state passed law providing for es-
tablishing a reformatory at Cheshiere,
Conn. Mr.. Garvin was selected to
superintend the construction of that
new penal institute and to be warden
when in operation. This is the first
reformatory for that state. 1t will
be used as a place of confinement for
first term men between the ages of
Is and %. Trade industries will be
tablished in that reformatory and
there will be no convict prison con-
tracts for it.
The construction of that new re-
formatory began over a year ago and
is expected to be in Use early next
year. Mr.. Garvin came here to
make thorough study of the new
prison after which the Connecticut
reformatory will be modelled. The
new prison will have immediate ac-
commodations for 400 with provis-
ion for 1000"
Mr.. Garyin spent some time in
speetion the new prison under con-
structing at South Saltwater and
says it is a deserving model not
only for the United States but for
the civilized world" He and War
den Wolfer also made trip to st.
Cloud in the Warden's auto, last
Thursday, and while there, inspected
the State Reformatory.
While in Saltwater Mr.. Garvin
was the guest of Warden Wolfer,
and Friday evening, banquet was

A two-column article in The Mir
ror, published by the convicts in the
Saltwater Minn. } penitentiary gives
in great detail the toll system to be
used on the Panama canal, and fig
ures up an elaborate table of the cost
to American and to foreign vessels
going through the canal. 1t may
cause some to smile, in view of the
impossibility of the author, publish
ers or readers getting to a place for
some time where the canal tolls will
cut any figure in their affairs; yet it
is good to think that only these mems
bodies are held at Saltwater and that
their minds are free to go and come,
and that they take healthy interest
in current affairs of the outside
world. Violators of the law who,
in expiating their offenses by long
prison terms, are able to write, read
and take interest in the Panama ca
nal and other world events so far
removed from their past and present
condition are not brooding upon the
past nor dreading the future

Well, we'll, we'll; who'd thunk
it? The Kangaroos won a drill
prize! Wonder of wonders! Tailor
Nelson can now grin to his heart
content and with good reason too;
for the way his Kangaroos hoped
into the game last Sunday would
make an owl laugh. We nigh also
mention the fact that Guard Vollmer
and his Invincibles were co-sharers
in the prize, but although the Irwin
cibles are admitted to be cracker
jacks and top-notchers, their victory
fades into thin air when compared
with the grand achievement of the
Kangaroos. But after all. t b e

Der of the Ananias Club was he not:
Well, Dublin as for as | know he

as a fellow | knew once who told a
darb. Several of us fellows we're
undecided as to who should adopt a
stray terrier that we had picked up.
Finally we agreed to tell lies and
the fellow who told the largest one
was to get the dog. Just as Billy
Murphy began to tell one, Joe Ryan
tried to tell one too. OF course
there was an argument. Just then
the school teacher turned the corner
and the next minute he was quizzing
us about the argument. We told
him that we were trying to dispose
of the dog and that the fellow who
told the biggest lie was to get him
The school teacher was greatly
shocked. Why boys says he / new
er told lie in my life. We cut
him short and handed him the dog.

Of, stalling" the umpire while their
pitchers rested have been stopped.

coacher's box. at third, Captain
Harry Lord would walk over toward
the umpire and start dispute about

places under threat of expulsion from
the game. Meanwhile the pitcher
has rested up and is ready to resume
and the game goes merrily on.
Lajoie. Day was recently celebrat-
ed in Cleveland. Larruping Larry
was presented with a floral horseshoe
in which were imbedded 1909 silver
dollars. His teammates presented
him with purse containing twenty
five So gold pieces. Larry respond
ed by cracking out double. Here
is one of the most graceful batters
in the game. He assumes his posi-
ton at the plate .nonchalantly and
his attitude seems to say: Come on
throw the ball. You can't stop me
from hitting it.'' Waste balls and
wild pitches are his delight and he
often slams the bad ones for doubles
or triples.
AS team mate he has Joe Jack
son another slugger of rerute. La
joie and Jackson make life weary
for opposing pitchers as they often
break up the game with their war
clubs. Harry Davis has some more
good batters on the Cleveland team
and they will give good account
of themselves from now on.
