PRISONERS WORK
ON COUNTY ROADS

Under an agreement made with
the Levy Court, in accord with a
law passed by the recent legislature
the trustees of the county workhouse
this week started a squad of pris-
oners rebuilding the road between
Prices Corner and the Ferris Indus
trial School. Warden Crawford is in
charge of the project.
Sixteen prisoners have been sent
out on the road. This week they are
cleaning out cutters along the sides
of the road, prior to resurfacing
1900 feet Of il with macadam. The
prisoners we're not on the highway
today as they are needed within the
workhouse at the institution to get
some of the clothing and other work
there out of the way.
Warden Crawford explained that
this Is a particularly busy time Of
the year in the workshops, and as
soon as the rush is over, within a
few days, the prisoners will be turned
loose on road building.
The stone is quarried at the work
house and hauled to the road, which
is but a few hundred yards from the
prison. Under the law empowering
prisoners 10 be employed on the
roads, they can be worked but eight
hours a day. r. armed guards are
i'm charge OF the road builders, but
there are no balls and chains or other
restraint. The prisoners wear blue
working suits not unlike those that
many other outdoor workers wear.
At noon the men marched back to
the workhouse for dinner. after
which they returned to the opera
tions the highway. Warden Craw-
ford is pleased with the way the new
plan has worked thus far. although
IL is slight compared with what he
and & c workhouse trustees hope 10
do after while in utilizing prisoners
on road building and repairs.
Under an agreement reached 1y
the workhouse trustees ani the Levy
Court the county pays IS cents a day
to The trustees for each man en-
ployed on the roads.

a porous plate or mass Of flre-resist

infiammable gas and air in the RICH,
proportions.
Whep the gas is first turned on and
lighted It burns with flame at the
surface OF the plate. When the air 10
turned on the fame disappears. bu,
the heat increases. A temperature Of
5000 degrees is claimed.
Just what use of this invention car
be made is yet a question.

The former business manager of
The Suffragette testified regarding
the responsibility Of the various pris-

Of that newspaper. He said his SER

Pankhurst thought 1t better that only
women should conduct the paper.
As to the loss of circulation by The
Suffragette after militant acts had
been committed. the witness said that
at first 10000 copies were printed,
but the sales were only 10000. The
circulation then dropped to 1900, but
5000 copies were circulated in other
ways. Just before last Christmas he
told Mrs. Pankhurst that this falling
on was due to the letter box raids,
but she shrugged her shoulders and
said that that could not be possible
because when the women were mill
tant they were most successful.
