DEATH OF SAMUEL H. BUCKLEY

Death entered the home of Officer
Buckley last Wednesday morning,
when his little nine year old son,
Samuel Howard, passed away. The
little fellow met with an accident
when but mere babe, a year and a
half old, and since that time has
never been entirely free from suffer-
ing. Patiently he bore his affection
however, and his lovable disposition
won him the love of all with whom
he came in contact. On Friday
morning they laid him away in St.
Michae]'s cemetery. A large con-
course of friends and relatives at
tended the funeral and many hand
some floral tributes were tenderly
placed on the grave. among these
was one from the prison officials.
The Mirror extends to Mr.. and
Mrs. Buckley it's most sincere SYM
pathy, and expresses the sentiment
of all the officials and men here con-
fined when we say we share your
sorrow.

THE OIL OF CLADNESS.

The editor of the Tracy Herald cap
tiously took exception to the Prison Mir
ror's advocacy of a church going Sunday
in the two prisons, rather doubling the sin
certify of the Mirror editor, notwithstand-
ing the splendid showing which was made
thru the Mirrors efforts. The Herald is
now assured of the inconsistency of the
Mirror because the prison paper recently
printed joke anent preacher and small
boy. Clearly, the editor of the Herald is
devoid of all sense of humor, that oil-of-
gladness which helps so much when the
wheels grind and the machinery CRATES.
Let the Mirror print all the good jests it
can find, for how better can the tragic side
of life and the weary strain be lessened than
by this same grace of humor. The Mirror
is rendering good service both by enthus-
iastic efforts in behalf of the chapel serv-
ices and by its dropping into the machinery
of life some of the oil of gladness, while
the Tracy Herald is making itself ridicu-
lous.-Stillwater Messenger.

WE'RE NOT ABNORMAL
Lombroso's Contention That
Crime is Physical Condition
is Absurd, Says the
Duluth Herald.

The following editorial from the
Duluth Herald shows how ridiculous
is the notion that imprisoned men
are in any way different physically
or mentally from others. The Her.
aid says
We have received a copy OF bill
introduced in congress to create
a bureau for the study of the alb
normal classes" We are asked to
support this measure.
1t will do no harm, if its scope is
not Inexperienced. The govern
ment has neglected human well-be-
ing too much. 1t gives more heed
to the health of hogs than of human.
But if this plan is based on the
belief that the criminal and pauper
classes" are abnormal, then it is
wrong and we are against it.
That idea is pretty thoroughly ex
ploded. Nobody can study crime
and pauperism without realizing
that the criminal and the pauper,
on the average, are even as you and
- except for environment and lack
of opportunity.
Lombroso Was Wrong
Lombroso was chiefly responsible
for the notion that crime is a phys
ical condition, and that criminals
form a type. Lombroso is no long
er an authority. His ideas may have
been comforting enough to those
who like to acquit social and eco
nomic conditions of any blame; but
they are no longer widely shared.
Study of crime and pauperism, to
be usefel, must include study of
the causes of crime and pauperism-
of the social deprivation. the evil
environments, the lack of training
and opportunity, that cultivate the
evil in mems natures and stitie the
good.
Study of the abnormal in human
nature is profitable, too; but it is far
from profitable if it is based on any
such absurd conception as Lombro-
SOS. If it served to spread the be-
lief that either crime or pauperism
is due to abnormal physical or men
tai types, and not to social neglect,
it would be positively harmful.
In the average state penitentiary
comparatively few abnormal beings
will be found. Most of the inmates
are just folks, like the rest of us.
Their unhappy lot may be due to ig-
norance, to dissipation. to folly of
one kind or another, or to the fact
that they have never been taught
anything better than crime; but in
very few cases will it be found due
to anything abnormal in their physi-
cal or mental condition.

HER KIND OFFER

James K. Hackett, the actor, tells the
story of merchant who had been travel
ling some months and upon his return was
informed of the death of a valued friend.
A few days late he called on the be-
reaved widow to offer his expressions of
sympathy. During the visit he remarked:
81 was a good friend of your late hus-
band. Is there not something of his
which could have as memento of him?"
She raised her velvety brown eyes to
his, which few moments before were
moist with tears, and said:

HIS SHAVING TICKET
sorrow.

In the New Mexico penitentiary, one
inmate is doing an indeterminate sentence
of $50 to leo years. Just what effect that
extra ten years will have on the prisoner
at about that time is hard to tell. How
ever, he will probably be allowed to let
his beard grow after he has done about
40 years, and if he does his minimum of
$50 years without reprimand, we can see
no reason why he should not be paroled,
provided the president of the United
States, the King of England and the
Newlyweds' baby, Snookums, will sign
his parole papers. Snookums ought to be
full grown man by that time, = Lend

CHEER FOR PRISONERS
The Editor of Hearst's Maya.
zine Gives Advice to all
Prisoners, Well Worth
Needing.
Permission Of Hearst's

First, remember, that after all,
the problem of your life is much the
same as the problem of ours who are
as yet INHALED. We are both hu-
man beings, both in conditions over
which (to greater or less degree)
we have no control, both the victims
of circumstances and our own folly
combined
And to both of us is presented the
same task, to wit: How can we
make the best Of our situation?
There is nothing good or bad in
calamity, sorrow. punishment, per-
secution and all such painful things.
The good or bad is in us. It's all
in the way we take it.
Some people come through pris-
on better and stronger for their ex-
perience. l know several men who
stand high in the business world,
who are happy and successful, and
yet have prison record. By power
of their will, and the strength of
their character, they got good out of
their trouble.
There are others who emerge from
prison thrice the hardened and en-
Uttered men they were when they
were sent up. By ignorance and
lack of self-mastery they got only
evil for themselves out of the evil
that happened to them.
None Can Hurt You
So it is up to you. To keep pris-
on life from running you, remember
these things:
Nobody can do you a permanent
injury except yourself.
Police, attorneys judges and pris-
on keepers can do things to your
body, can lock you up and hurt you
in many ways, but they cannot af-
feet your mind and your real self.
You only can do that.
Watch your thoughts. 1t is they
that can kill you. Men cannot kill
the soul in you.
Keep out of your mind all senti-
ment of self-pity. This is the great
est enemy to your strength.
DO not waste your energy in
kicking against the inevitable. You
cannot change the prison rules, the
guards. and the discipline. Adapt
yourself to what cannot be helped.
There is one thing you can change.
1t is yourself. Practice this every
day.
Think Good Thoughts
Resolve to be great. Be great,
by thinking thoughts Of courage, by
bapishing thoughts of revenge and
hate.
You have long, long hours for
thought. The main issue for you is
what you are going to do with these
thought hours.
Every hate thought, every bit of
worry, of vengeance. of anger and
of gall, in these lonely hours, hurts
and weakens you. And every min
ute spent in thinking things that are
good beautiful, cheerful, kindly and
brave, strengthens you and helps to
make great man of you.
Say to yourself this verse of Henly:
cit matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishment the
scroll,
| am the master of my fate,
am the Captain of my SOUL
You have lost the world; i'm
prove the opportunity to improve
Yourself. You are unconquerable.
You can win. No man can keep
you from your own-if you know

KNOWLEDGE
By Ella Wheeler WILCOX

Would you believe in Presence Unseen
In life beyond this earthly life? Be still:
Be stiller yet; and listen. Set the screen
Of silence at the portal of your will.
Relax and let the world go by unheard,
And seal your lips with some all sacred-word.
Breathe God" in any tongue-it means the
same;
Love Absolute: Think, feel, absorb the
thought;
Shut out all else; until subtle flame
"a spark from Gods creative center caught)
Shall permeate your being. and shall glow,
Increasing in its splendor, till YOU KNOW.
Not in moment, or an hour. or day
The knowledge comes; the power is far too
To win in any desultory way.
No soul is worthy till it learns to wait.
Day after day be patient, then. oh soul;
Month after month-till. 10! the goal! the goal!
