Of bathing beach for colored persons

The estimate as to the cost of estab-
fishing bathing beach in the tidal basin
was prepared by Municipal Architect
Snowden Ashford, who has recommended
to the Commissioners that Congress be
asked to appropriate 500 for the prepara-
ton Of plans.
The municipal architect suggests that
the cost of dredging the basin might
be charged to some general appropria
ton for the improvement of Potomac
Park. He states that a building for
the accommodation of 1000 lockers
should not be less than 10 feet long
and 30 feet wide. and estimates that

ture would he $4,000

Advocated by Hudson.

The plan for the establishment of a
ba thing beach in the tidal basin has been
advocated for humber of years by DR..
w. B: Hudson. superintendent of the
present municipal swimming pools. 1t is
believed that the plan is being favorably
considered by the House appropriations
subcommittee.
Recently Windstorm damaged the
bathhouse at 18th and 3 streets, and the
structure will have to undergo consider
able repairs before it can be used during
the coming bathing season. 1t is likely
that only temporary repairs will be made
if Congress indicates its intention to
eventually abandon the present institu-
ton.

BONDS OF WILK
 WERE QUALIFIED
JUDGE GOTHAM EXPLAINS HOW THE BONDS WERE PRESENT.
 ED AND WHY GIVEN FAVOR.
Records Were Brought Out to Prove That the Signers Had Sufficient Property to Guarantee Collec-
 tion of Bonds.

When seen by the Sentinel-Record, with reference to his approval of the bail bond of Charles Wilks, and Joe Aberley,. alter Sheriff Williams had refused to approve said bond, Judge Gotham had this to say concerning said matter.
 Attorneys for the above named de- fendants called at my residence at an early hour last evening and pre- sented for my approval bail bonds for said defendants. stating that Sheriff Williams had refused to approve the same. After examining said bonds, I stated to these attorneys that would not approve the same until the sure ties thereon qualified as required by law and furnished me with some evidence that they were good for the amount of the bonds. In the mean time l had a conference with the deputy prosecuting attorney and Sheriff Williams and secured their opinion as to the sufficiency of said bonds.
 At later hour attorneys for the defendants presented for my consid- '. Sam Maxwell, w. T. Rogers, c. Floyd Huff, and Roy Levi, who made affi- davit as required by statute that they were residents of the State of Arkan- sas, and owners of visible property over and above their exemptions from execution, to the vaiue of $50, 100000, $40000.00 of this amount being real estate and S10,000.00 of this amount being personal property.
 The two bonus called for bail in the sum of $l5.000.00 In addition to the, ,affidayits above referred to, was shown a certificate of the collector of Garland County showing the real estate assessments of some of the above sureties, and there was also exhibited to me abstracts of title, deeds, etc, showing the real estate holdings of one of said sureties. From the evidence submitted to me. as well as from the affidavits of said sureties as required by statute, I believed the bail bonds offered by the above-nam- ed defendants to be sufficient under the law, and approved said bail bonds. None of the sureties. on said bonds were considered by me in passing on the sufficiency of said bonds, except those above named, who made the affidavit required by the statute
 "In this connection I wish to state that Sheriff Williams in his refusal to approve said bonds, when present ed to him, acted wholly within his discretion, and doubtless had good reasons for his refusal. His an nounced policy not to approve bail bonds in cases of this kind, unless they are gilt edged, should meet with the approval of the public, in view of some unfortunate experiences the county has suffered in cases of this kind"

The Old Prisons DisquaIify
Men From Returning
to the World

The apparent intention of the
old prisons is to make the pris-
oners as uncomfortable as pos
Bile, to reduce them to the ex-
treme point of humiliation, to
extinguish their self-respect and
to brutalize by the employment
of exasperating devices, which
chasten without purifying and
discipline without ennobling.
They destroy ambition, en-
feeble the sense of humanness,
put men out of relation with the
world, and effectually disqualify
them for ever returning TO it.
They are animated by the
spirit of retaliation, and use the
prison as means of damaging
the inmates as much as the in
mates have damaged society. So
administered, prisons become big
man crushing machines worked
by the state in the interests of
no one knows exactly what. The
mere statement of the case is
sufficient to condemn it as a
diabolic device for the propaga-
ton of depravity.
All the boys at Great Meadow
came from institutions just de-
scribed and they all tell the same
story, the story that Mr.. Os-
borne told after he had been in
the mems prison at Auburn, and
that Miss Doty told after she
had been four days in the Au-
burn women's prison. So there
can be no doubt about it.
They are a general disgrace to
the state that maintains them,
and particular disgrace to the
men that officer them, and be-
fore many years they will be
looked back upon with horror
and as relic survived from bar
baric days.
Now, so far as the entire ami
mating spirit of the institution
at Comstock is concerned, it is a
direct reversal of the one con-
trolling the old prisons. War

AUR last article contained
plain, unexaggerated state
ment of the method of
treatment employed in the Great
Meadow state prison at Com
stock, N. Y, as | have acquaint-
ed myself with it by personal
observation on the ground.
The wide divergence of that
method from the one followed in
penal institutions generally must
have been made apparent to
every one directly or indirectly
versed in the policy in vogue at
Auburn. Dannemora and Sing
Sing. 1t exhibits less the aspect
of prison than of school for
agricultural apprentices.
With all its liberality, however,
it is place of punishment and
realized to be such by the in
mates. So keenly felt is the re-
straint put upon them and the
deprivations which they suffer
that very many of them can tell
to day how much longer their
period of confinement is to con-
tinue Generous as is the treat
ment, it is not a retreat to which
any one would resort for the
amusement of the thing.
The distinctive feature of the
place is that the restraints are
not so applied as to work in the

tired of the institution and of its
