BY nlxoLA eREeLEY-sMlTA.

NEW YORK, Dec. 22.-After 80
years Of solitary confinement in cell
Jesse Pomeroy, the human hend,
has been permitted to worship God In
the company OF his fellow cOnvicts
for the first time.
During a whole generation OF time
this extraordinary criminal, who has
grown to manhood and into middle
age In cell No. &c OF the Charlestown
prison. was regarded by the authori-
ties OF Massachusetts TO be too bad
TO 60 to church. g.
At the age of IA Jesse Pomeroy, a
newsboy, was sentenced to be hanged
for the killing Of little girl and sew
eral boys. Because OF his extreme
youth, the sentence was committed TO
solitary confinement for life.
Never permitted TO look upon the
faces OF his fellow-prisoners. Jesse
Pomeroy received the frst mitigation
OF his sentence when he was per-
mtttsd, on the fifty-fifth anniversary
0f his birth, TO enter the prison chapel
and listen TO sermon by the prison
chaplain .... .
A special keeper sat beside him
during the services. Pomeroys inter
est In the proceedings was breath
less. He studied every face in the
chapel as though he sought To carry
back to his gray cell fresh memories
to dispel the maddening monotony OF
those 3S years of silence and despair.

the contrary, he has developed from
an ignorant newsboy into an omniv-
erous reader OF books. The prison IL
brary numbers 5000 valumes. The
man who was too bad to go to
church knows them all by heart.
4 He has learned French and Spanish
and has become an expert book
keeper.
He has made nine separate attempts
10 escape, and on several occasions
has very nearly succeeded For this
reason he is not permitted, as other
prisoners are, TO keep a knife and
fork In his cell.
His meals are showed through a slit
In the wall three times a day, and he
Is obliged to return all utensils and
cutlery at the end OF 20 minutes.
Once Pomeroy complained TO the
governor that his cell was badly ven
tilated. A transom was installed, and
he obtained possession of the hinge
which operated IL and made IL into a
saw, with which he escaped from his
cell and reached the outer courtyard
before he was apprehended
Since Pomeroy's arrival at Charles

the prosecuting attorney, the lawyer
who served him as counsel, the jury
which tried him, and the governor
who committed his sentence have all
