ForQers' Factory in Prison.

Banknotes made in prison forms the
recent astounding discovery made at
the prison In Peterhead, Aberdeen
shire, the largest convict establish
ment in Scotland. For some time
tradesmen in the district have been
defrauded by counterfeit Bank OF Eng.
land notes. and the police were
puzzled and baffied. Two Scotland
yard detectives were despatched to
Peterhead, and their Investigations
show that the counterfeit notes eman.
ated from the prison, where they were
made by convicts. The convicts, af.
ter making the notes. passed them to
workmen, who were building break
water in the vicinity, and received in
exchange tobacco and other articles
Tho spurious notes were cleverly made
on paper that had been used in wrap
ping butter supplies for the prison. Sc
far. the police have failed to discover
the men who actually circulated the
notes. The prison contains 400 con
victs at present, including about q
score of we'll known forgers.

Sunday morning. after linger-

and happiness in the bosom of
her Maker should be consollng to
one and all.
Mrs, Haynes bore her sickness
wlth0uta murmur. Her faith in
CHRIST the Comforer grew strong
err and stronger as day by day the
end came on and this accounts
for her happiness thru her trials

and the heart broken husband,
we know that you are awfully
lonesome without her, that your
sorrow IL great and the anguish
hard to bear, we point you to
the one in whom she had so great
a faith. He will wipe away youE
tears, and comfort you thru life
and if your faith IN Him will be
as great as hers you some day
will be able to meet death in the
same fortitude, and join her with
the angels in glory. God bless
the two Young chlldren--thev are
two bright little boys, and may
the good and gracious God who
led their dear mother, also lead
them that they too may meet her
in the better land. She was pre-
coded some ten years ago by an
elder sister.
Mrs. Viola O'Neal Haynes was
born Feb. 8, 1880. She is the
