road. From its organization to the

this little Sunday school in the back
woods there have gone seven ministers

American Sunday School Union. one
candidate for Vice President of the
United States one Lieutenant Cover

Convicts to be Worked on Farm

Under the authority granted by the
recent Legislature the State Prison
Commission this week leased the farm
of Mrs. Gilbert Mastin. two miles from
Frankfort. to be used two years as
the farm Tor the Kentucky Reforma-
tory. The consideration OF $1,000 a
year The commission took an option
on the farm of 400 acres at $50 an
acre, aud will likely purchase it at the
end of two years. The farm is con-
yeniently located for the penitentiary,
and will eventually become the site OF
a new reformatory. additional land
will be purchased, for 1t is probable
that contract labor at the prisons IN
this state will be abolished in few
years. The Kentucky Highlands rail-
road passes through the Mastin farm
and the Kentucky river flows by 1t, so
that transportation by the river and
railroad throughout the year is GER
tain. Warden Wells expects to save
the state $4,000 in two years as re-
suit q. the lease of tn, farm, and feels
that Ire can save enough in five years
to buy aud equip the farm
