Egg Crusade Started---State Board Of
Health Conducting Prosecutions
Thirteen Massachusetts, Dealers Have
Been Convicted

Large cities in the western section
of the State were the first places
visited, and numerous violations were
found at Springfield, Worcester and
Pittsfield. Six dealers were convicted
and fined at Springfield, four at Pitts
field and three at Worcester One Of
the Springfield grocers convicted and
fined $40 was Julius F. Carman, a
member of the Legislature, who was
influential in having the egg law
passed. When inspectors visited his
place it was found that he had not
complied with the law. Carman was
greatly surprised when requested to
appear in court, and protested his in
nocence of any violation. He was
found guilty, however, and paid his
fine. Later he considered it a good
joke.
From Western Massachusetts, the
inspectors came to this city and be-
gan the great task of visiting each
store.

DISCIPLINE IN PRISON.
Former Chaplain of Charlestown Says
1t Is Best in Country.

West Somerville, Mass.-After weeks
of observation at the Massachusetts
state prison, | can say that the disci-
pline maintained is of a very high or,
der" said the Rev. George A. Craw,
ford of Brookline, retired chaplain of
the United States navy, and for some.
time acting chaplain at the prison,
who addressed the Third Universalist
church on prison Reform"
"Charlestown prison was the first in
this country to put the prisoner on
his honor, and the system has worked
WELL" he continued. "On the basis
of population fewer men are punish
ed in our prison than in any other
prison of similar size in the coun-
try. This is due to the honor sys-
tenn established by Warden Bridges.
1.-THE warden and his subordinates
treat their charges as men as long as
their behavior warrants it. When
the prisoners witness moving pic.
ture show in darkened chapel with.
out a single word being spoken, as
was the case recently, it is proof con.
elusive that they are subject to a
proper discipline."<

School Head Says They Cause Dlsre
spect and immortality.

Providence.-Home study which oc-
cupies the evening hours of pupils
and prevents their proper association
with parents was declared to be the
cause, in part, of parental disrespect
and immortality, by William Weiner,
principal of the Central Commercial
and Manual Training high school of
Newark, N. J.s in an address before
the Goth annual session of the Rhode
Island Institute of Instruction. Prin-
cipal Weiner said:
Under present conditions of les
son assignment the conscientious
children come from play to the even
ing meal, hurriedly swallow that, and
then work on books until bed time.
In this way not only do they menace
their health, but they lose the asso-
citation with parents and the necessary
appreciation of family relations and
interests. To this is, in my judg-
ment, partly to be attributed the chill
dren's rampant disrespect for par
ents and elders, who cannot under
stand or know their offspring because
of lack of association. Farther,
believe that the present undercurrent
of immortality in the lives of boys
and girls is, in part, due to this loss
of parental association and the lack
of the moral influence of the family"

HUMANE TREATMENT
FOR DRUNKA2Dsl.
JUDGE MURRAY OPPOSES RE-
CALL.
Boston Justice Says It Would Greatly
Hamper the Bench.

Boston.-Judge Michael j. Murray
of the Municipal Court spoke at the
monthly dinner of the Reciprocity
Club against the recall of judges, and
urged more humane treatment fort
persons arrested for drunkenness. He,
contended that judges would never

ministration of justice would be inn
possible if one decision or another
should be criticized by a portion of
the voters.
Judge Murray said that it cost thef
State 100000 to care for only a part
of the 100000 persons arrested hereb
during the year ending Sept. /, 1874
He urged wider use of the proba-t
ton system; and held that drunkenl
persons should be separated FRONT
other prisoners and given individual
attention, with the hope of effectingE
permanent relief. I'VE should edu-E
