Hon. Franklin D. Hale of
Lunenburg, who has recently
been elected a representative
from that town, will be a mem
Der with a real record, and one
who will become a positive and
influential factor in legislation
during the ensuing session.
He has long been well and
favorably known throughout
the State and abroad. He was
born at Barnet, Vermont, Mar.
7th. 1854, and moved with his
parents to Lunenburg January,
1865. He was educated in the
common schools, st. Johnsbury
Academy and the Law School
of Michigan University where
he graduated in 1877. He af-
forwards, taught number of
terms of school in Vermont and
New Hampshire. He then
practiced law in Lewiston, Me-,
a member of the firm of Hutch
inson, Savage & Hale, one of
the leading law firms of the
State of Maine.
In 1880, he travelled quite
extensively in the Western
States, and then returned toI
Lunenburg where he has since
held his place of residence.
During later years he prac-
tised law, and for a time, was
engaged in farming. He has
held the usual town offices, was
States Attorney of Essex Coun-
ty for eight years, a member of
the House Of Representatives
in 1884,1898 and 1900. Senator
from Essex County in 1886,
Auditor of Accounts from 1892
until 1895. More recently, he
was in the Government service.
in Cuba in 1899 and 1900. In.
1891, he was Chairman of
Townsite Board No. l, Oklo-
homa City, appointed by Presi-
der Harrison. From 1902 to
1903, he was American Consul
at Coaticook, was transferred
to Charjottetown, Prince Ed
ward Island. where he remain
ed during 1908 and 1909. He
was, then, promoted and trans
ferred t. Trinidad British West
Indies. He was in South Amer
lea fronc 1900 to 1912, and,
from thcr5, was transferred toI
Huddovafeld, England, where
he TeGlained from 1912 to 1918
when he resigned on account
of i'll health, and came home in
the month Of August. He had
the unusual experience Of
crossing he ocean four times
during the war, which must be-
more attractive historically
than in anticipation.
His parerD-s were Sprague 7.
and Nancy Moulton Hale, orig
inal Vermonters who always
lived in that grand old rock
ribbed Republican town OF Lu-
nenburg, whose voice is always
heard upon the side of stability
and good Government, and up
on which you might as well try
to eliminate the Ten Command
ments from the churches as to
strike out the authority and
Oredominance of the Republi-
can party.
He has been twice married,
his first and second wives being
sisters, Jennie and Susan Silsby,
residents of Lunenburg and
members of another family of
genuine inherited Vermont j.
3nals. He has one daughter
and two sons, one of whom,
Pernard F. Hale, is now Amer
lean CONSUL at Plymouth, Eng
and.
Very few members of the
Touse will have such a wealth
+ learning and experience as
frank Hale, and we bespeak
or him unusually important
'omnittee Appointments and
cnj influence in Legislation.

than that to which they were sent,
As it is, however, their life, while
ordered along lines of hard work and
undertaking discipline, Is relieved by
all the little things which 60 80 far to
make this hard existence pleasant.
Plenty TO Smoke
They have, first of all, that greatest
Of all solaces--tobacco, which they may
use with little or no restrictions. They
can buy magazines, cakes, candles,
music to play on their instruments. for
they are permitted those, too, aud thore
is u well. stocked library to which they
have access.
Everything is scrupulously. clean, for
Warden Plummer is particular deyotee
of that virtue, and the. whole spirit OF
the place Is one Of brightness and
hope. There is an up to date laundry,
conducted by one OF the prisoners, ana
a plenitude of sunlight and fresh air.
Every inmate has opportunity for ex-
ercise in the open air, and there Is
plenty of plain but appetising food.
Visiting is permitted at frequent in-
teryals, at which times the pleasant
countryside presents scene OF un..
wonted activity as tho friends and
relatives OF the men inside gather, all
bearing gifts aud small articles OF COM
.'Thc trouble experienced in most
penal institutions, said Warden Plum.
mer, 'is that tho men are idle, and
idleness invariably breeds trouble.
Here we work on a different basis..
Everybody must do certain amount OF
work. II he is industrious, and does
more, he can earn money to spend as
he wishes. The store here. which Is run
ct cost, is patronized by the men through
this means" =
lho central idea Of the institution is
embodied in the honor system, which
has attained unqualified success. The
men have a council, which has no small
part in regulating the life within the
walls, and the conduct Of the prisoners
Is left 20 AN unprecedented extent to
their own determination.
Reduce Guards BY Half
For instance, as a result Of this sSs.
tcm the number OF guards at the insti.
tuition has been cut in half, and many
of the men are permitted to do their
work upon the farm and In the quar-
ries with virtually no supervision what
ever.
In spite or TINS not man mas at-
tempted to escape for year, and the
prisoners themselves, rcauzing the ad-
vantages which they derive from good
behavior, discourage such attempts
wherever they become known.
One of the prisoners, in fact, habitu-
ally plays on the front lawn with the
little daughter Of one Of the guards, TO
whom he Is devoted.
Two bands have been organized
omong the men, and there are football
and baseball teams which represent the
institution in games with outside teams.
There is a large auditorium, with a
piano and stage, the latter constructed
by the prisoners. The scenery, too, was
painted by some artist in duress vile ;
n lively representation OF highland
scene.

banner with this strange device-"God

a realization of the situation, could
such be granted him, would cause the
late Tom Nevin. erStwhile nmiable
warden Of the old Bailey, to rotate rap
idly in his grave.
Among the three hundred. odd pris.
cners whom, Warden Mordecni s. Plum
mer is winning back to state Of de-
cent citizenship, these FIVE men seem
sinGularly out Of place.
Furman G.. Coles. former Recorder Of
deeds Of New Castle County, and a
man well known and liked in his COM
munlty. is serving a tive-year term for
the embesElcment Of $50 900 of the pub
lie money.
Today he wears the white garments
of a doctors clerk, having immediate
charge Of the prison infirmary. He is a
model prisoner and he il liked by all
HIS brethl en- in misfortune, us well as
the warden and assistants.
Jimmie" Nlclds There
Then there is James, Jimmie"
Nields, formerly one Of the most pop
uar young men in Wilmington. whose
conviction for dcfalcation of some
$500 900 in his banking deals cost him
his good name and four years of his
life in prison.
With him arc Charles r. Eastman,
who IL serving eight years for misuse
of his company's funds and those of the
church to which he belonged, and Will
liam Bush, who was sentenced TO eight
years for misappropriating funds of the
banking concern of which he was treas
urer.
Both Of these men were lured TO their
downfall by their operations in the stock
market, to cover which they turned in
desperation 10 the funds committed to
their care. The former is now one of
the proprietors of the prison store and
ccmmissary. while the latter is In
charge of the books of the institution
Both are highly regarded by the prison
authorities.
Latest of the five TO arrive is Albert
e. Moore. who pleaded guilty recently
to pockcting S16,OoO given him by q
client to invest in real estate, for which
admission he was given n term of two
years and fine Of $500. which will be
remitted at the expiration of the term.
These men, used as they were to the
best that money could buy, would have
