Ire or shame in Boston, came into

and upon the recommendation OF
states Attorney Il. u. Shaw and At
torner- General j q. Sargent. Mrs.
Coates was sentenced by Judge Miles
to serve not less than seven nor more
than eight months at hard labor in

appeared for Mrs. Coates and the plea
Of guilty was entered by the respond

ture that the state authorities de-
cided that n compromise should be ar
ranged whereby the young girls in
the case would he shielded and the
public would be spared the recital of
the details Of rather II fnurky case.
In short. Mr. Shaw and Mr.. Sargen-
did not believe the case was ut to 10

Imprisonment. said ne. Is ineffective
except in the worst cases A fine he
termed farce. and lie declared that
short jail sentence serves merely
to sober drunkard for the time
being. He expressed strong faith IN
tn" parole and the honor system IN
the great majority of cases.
II an not in sympathy" he declared,
with the system now in force of
treating the problem in the House Of
Correction and he Laid special stress
, on the benefit 70 be gained from OUT
of-door work and from real interest
in the unfortunates personally.
'For this class of individuals We
need a state farm, ard want to ems
phasize the need also of a. probation
officer, but most Of all, the need Of
personal work"
Tho last speaker was Sheriff Z II.
TracY Of Washington county, who is
widely known for his success in
handling prisoners at the Montpelier
jail upon the honor system. and for
working out the problem along lines
Of his own. Mr. Tracy's talk was es-
sentially practical. and dealt for tho
most part with his own experience,
upon which he drew for many sugges-
lions of great value
He said that OF $50 prisoners to
whom he had applied the honor sys-
ten. only - had taken advantage Of
| their freedom from restraint to be-
come intoxicated. and there had l.een
| only threH attempts to escape from
jail
| I'm other words" he added. "only about
Pc per cent. OF them have abused their
privileges. Where, among business men,
could YOU deal with $50 Of them. and DO
trimmed by only 2is per cent"
Sheriff Tracy related numerous incl
dents connected with his application OF
the system to those in his charge. Some
of he prisoners. said he. had been per-
mitted to 90 about town and make small
! purchases at the stores, but We're not all
lowed 70 stand around on the streets,
and this privilege had been received by
the men with careful observance OF the
restrictions imposed.
+ In the Old days. when men in Jail were
kept idle in their cells. their health and
strength had suffered. and when they
were released at the expiration of their
terms. there was little for them to do
bu; turn thieves or yet drunk. But when
kept at work for which they were paid,
they showed an entirely different spirit.
one man had been able to support his
family BY work done in confinement, so
! that the burden CT his sentence did not
fall upon the innocent as Well
/ Tho sheriff showed uncommon UNDER
standing of the natures of the men in
his charge. and lie told OF some of the
prisoners who had been led to tell him
