CAN OF MONEY FOUND.
Small Boys Pay Out $1,000 For 30
Cents, Worth of Candy.

San Francisco, Cal. - Three small
boys, whose aggregate age is twenty
years, playing near San Francisco's
new City and County hospital, I'm,
earthed the lend of the rainbow" in
the tangible form of a tomato can
stuffed with real money.
Five thousand dollars in five dollar
notes-federal reserve bills of the issue
of 1914-the boys pulled forth and
then began an onslaught upon neigh
boring candy stores. They did not count
the money, but exchanged sheaves of
the bills for bags of candy.
In all they passed out $4,000 for 30
cents worth Of sweets before they were
observed by a police officer, who took
the remaining $1,000 in charge.
In the opinion of the police the money
was buried by a thief. The money will
be returned to the boys if it is not
claimed and identified.

LEFT PRISON A REFoRMER.
QuinIan, !. w. w. Leader, Told of EvlIs
He Found as a Convict.

Paterson, n. J.-Patrick Quinlan, the
1. w. w. leader, who was released
from the New Jersey state prison after
serving time for melting riot, told an
audience of 1000 persons in Turn hall
that he was going into prison reform
work. He said that he would have a
conference in Newark with Thomas
Mott Osborne, former warden of Sing
Sing, and several other leaders in
prison reform. Quinlan was in the
Trenton prison for a year and a half.
In his recent campaign against con-
ditions in New York prisons Mr.. Os-
borne often spoke Of bad conditions in
the New Jersey prison.
Quinlan said he was well treated by
the prison authorities, but that the
physical condition of the prison was
bad. He said that the bathing facilities
were all right in summer, but that the
bathtubs were not used in winter, the
prisoners getting only pals Of water
with which to take baths. He said that
$50 men were in a condemned section
of the prison and complained that the
inmates were allowed to write only
one letter a month and that the letters
were censored going and coming. He
declared that a letter written to him
had been given to reporters before he
had seen 1t.
