So many Canadian eonviets after serving their terms of imprisonment go to the states, in prder, for various reasons, to recommence life far away from where their history is known, that it is a matter of great import. once to the American public at large to know whether the prison treatment to which these immigrants have been subjected is of suck a nature as to render them hardened. and ))E0rER,tTB IN VICE, and thus a danger to 'tlso community, or is calculated to produce areformation in their ohmmeters and thus to give them the desire end opportunity of becoming inmost and re- spectable members of society upon their lib- eration from confinements There aro in Canada five ponitantiaries, situated at Kingston, in Ontario ; St. Vin- cent do Paul, 'in Quebec ; Dorchester, in New Brunswick ; Stony aroummtain, in Mena i tuba, and New Westminster, in British Columbia. It is no disparagement to the others to say that there is none better con• lucted than that at ;atony mountain, which is likely to be of most interest to western people. Stony mountain is situated about thirteen miles from Winnipeg, with which it has telephonic and railway comutuuica- tion, and is admirably adapted for the site of apeuitantiary. It is sufficiently far from the center of population, and yet is not at such a distance as to render it incapable of 3btaining assistance from the city if any in- surrection of the inmates should render suck necessary. It is considerably elevated tbove the level of the prairie by which it is surrounded, so that any escaping convict could be easilyy detected, while the stone - quarries which exist there and a consider- able extent of -farm land afford means for the employment of convict labor. The penitentiary is anobject ofinterest which is visited by almost eery aUtnger of importance passing through Rinnipeg. Perhaps one of the great attractions to visi- tors is the generous hospitality dispensed by the warden, S. L. Bodeen, who, by the way, is well known throughout the west on ae- 'ount of his buffalo herd, which was sold a short time ago to a 'Kaunas rammer. Mr. lh'dson is a thoroughly good fellow, and his private means enable him to freely indulge his hospitable iustiucts. But his reputation is a host is, perhaps, somewhat uufortunato for his reputation as an officer, for, as he is chiefly spoken of fu eho former capacity, the real practical work 11e is engaged in, not re- ceiving so much publicity, is apt to be un- .lerestimnted. It was the latter, however, which chiefly impressed the writer when re- cently he btud the privilege of inspecting this institution. There etre some seventy convicts and about thirty insane patients confined at the mountain. The number of prisoners is not largo when it is considered that this is the place of imprisonment for all OFFEi sES 01 A SL+RMOL'S .NATURE c enmitted between Lake Superior and the Rocky mountains, and the comparative- ly small number speaks well for western Canadian morality. The convicts are ander sentence of imprisonment for terms ranging from two years to life, the greater proportion being iu for either three, two, or six years. The nature of their offences is various, there being more under punishment for larceny than for any other crime. About 40 per cent are Iudiam and half-breeds. American, Canadian, Irish, and English aro about equally represented. The convicts are mostly young .nen, about 28 per :lent b ring between the ages of 20 and 211. There are no female convicts. The insane patients are received from the northwest territories au 1 Keewatin, hut not from Manitoba, the M tnitoba lunatics being cared for in an asylum under the management of the pro- vincial government. The warden is a military man, having been an officer in the British army andnow being colonel in command of the Olst battalion of the Canadian militia. It is therefore not surprising to find the strictest discipline in the penitentiary, both as regards guards and convicts. The place is most scrupulously clean and everything, whether in the peni- tentiary itself or iu the grounds surrounding it, is in the best of order. Theguards and at- tendants are attired in neat uniforms, and onolooks in vain for any evidence of care- lessness about their appearance. The con- victs are habitecl in parti-colored garments of coarse material -white and brown -with their numbers painted upon back and breast. The demeanor of guards and convicts is post respectful. Immediately upon the ap-• pearance of the warden whatever is being done is stopped and BOTI8 GUARDS AND OONVICTS salute and stand at attention until the com- nand "to your work" is issued. Any >reach of discipline is punished with sever-. ty. A guard who was being spoken to %bout some defective work performed by the nen ander his charge commenced to argue with and contradict the warden. He was it once ordered to his quarters. The next lay Ile would be brought up for punishment, which would. probably be either suspension 'or a month or, perhaps, dismissal. Thie treatment of officials , is not the result of a lastq tetnpor but is part of casystem. It is 'ound to result in great efficiency (and oou- iequently has seldom to: be restored to), ,vhile its moral effect among the convicts is, not ealutary. The convicts themselves are lealt within a manner equally severe if oc- :asion., requires. Their punishment ,ranges ropy a reprimand to a flogging. But though .0 severe m the maintenance of discipline he wardon has a kind heart and tempers tis severity with gentleness. Any man who aha h' f need, of fear s content to behave vo nasal n ,arshnese but on the contrary will receive ncomragement and such rewards as prison 'tileswill allow. Everyone 'is given his hence, but if that be thrown away the punishment is exemplary. For instance, a favorite method of dealing with prisoners likely to prove troublesome is to sentence them to be flogged upon their first impor- tant offense. They are ordered to strip and are then taken to the flogging room, where they are handcuffed and by the hand- cuffs are screwed to a triangle, They aro examined by the doctor and the guard prepares to lay on the cat. Before the lash is administered, however, the culprit is ask- ed by the warden what he has to say for himself. If, as is generally the ease, he is. penitent and promises amendment the ward- en tells him he will be let oil the flogging for a certain period, say three months, but if during that time he is heard of again he will get this flogging and in addition one for the subsequent offense. This generally so impresses the convict that it is seldom one thus dealt with ever again gives cause for trouble. In connection with the employment of the oonz•iets the Canadian system of management appears particularly praiseworthy. The old idea of forcing convicts to perfrom the meanest manual labor is not carried out at Stony Mountain. For the first three mot his i' months of zm risen n e• e a is met mole a m P sent to theria ubut after ar i s, that he is al- lowed to choose some toile or Gumption, a certain proportion of the wages earned by lain beingsail set a as a fend toarch him clothes, etc, P ase ON UIS Remise. It is sought to edueate each man to a call- ing for which he is fitted and which is likely to prove useful to him upon his liberation. Some are taught tailoring, others carpenter- ing, others shoemaking, and so on. There :.re in the penitentiary several well-educated young fellows, quite gentiomeu, who bare been brought to their present position more by folly than crime. To force these young men to perform the work of ordinary manu- al laborers would be to degrade them, to cause them to lose self-respect and become callous. Under such a system they would return to society embittered and hardened, their employment would be among the low- er ranks, and, feeling they hada feud with the world, the evil part of their nature would become predomivant and force thent into a career of revengeful crime. Sn4hprisoners as these time warden has taught shorthand and type- writing, an occupation which is not revolt- ing to their finer feelings and which will en- able them on their release to take, fax away from the scene of their disgrace, a position in society where they can earn an hanest living and which they will net have cause to be ashamed of. The convict nudorstands from this considerate treatment, which is of course conditional on hisgoodbehavior, that his reformation rather than his punishment is sought, and if therais any good iu lmim it is sure by this means to be brought out. If he is thorourhly bad no harm can be done by giving hit . a chalice of amendment. An additional incentive to good behavior is the feet that by good conduct a prisoner is al- lowed to earn a remission of a portion of his sentence. I should say, too, that Warden Bedson's treatment is supplemented by re- ligious teachings from the Roman Catholic and Anglican chaplains of the penitentiary and by the eonviets being allowed the use of a good supply of wholesome literature. I ought also to mention that not only sloes the warden seek to reformat those under his care; but if he finds a man Iti neaaLY PEN1TiNT and is inelined. to be honest and industrious he endeavors to find suitable employment for him on his ranee, and over after so long as it is deserved takes a kindly interest in his welfare, With the Indians under his cbarge War- den Beason appears to harm been particu- larly successful. He has shown what can be merle of poor "Lo" by proper management. Isaw one, aprisoner for complicity in the nortlweet rebellion, who Was intrusted with the charge of the engine -room (a responsible duty requiring great intolligeneo and care) and who, I was informed,` was doing his work as well as any skilled engineer could have done. Another was seen carpenter- ing in as workman -like a manner as a trained mechanic. Yet, I believe, the gown -anent relic no artiou ar sins se s p I p to a that the habits thus farmed and the knowledge ac- quired by the Indite* become of any ad- vantage to them on their release. They re- turn to their reserves and fall into their old ways, whereas they might, with attention, become a valuable aid in the education and improvement of their less civilized brethren. The system of stern discipline combine$ with intelligent consideration which is in force appears to have worked well at the prison, for the convicts are most orderly and insurrections or attempts to escape are very rare, And in this respect Stony Mountain compazes most favorable with other Cana - edam penitentiaries. Looking at the sys- tem from a politico -economic standpoint it certainly appears to be desiened to lead to the reformation of any convicts who are cap- able of reformation, and as for confirmed criminals it giros them sueh a wholesome terror of imprisonment as to cause them to refrain from crime from dread of 'the con- sequences. The two great motives of human action, the hope of reward and the fear of punishment, are both judiciously worked upon. I am told that the extra cost of management the considerate treatment of the penitents involves is caviled at by those who believe cheapness is the main object to be regarded fn managing government insti- tutions, while the severe punishment used in the case of hardened criminals is objected i, to by nambypamby lnim;tnitarians. But, even if 'a little more empensive in the first instance, it is surely:in reality more economi- cal to turn out from the penitentiary .nen who will thereafter become useful members of society than ENASPERATL+D AND DEGRADED creatures who will settle down into social Ishmaelites and hardened jail -birds, becom ingamenace to the community andafrequent charge on tax -payers. As for the human- ,tarians'•argument, it is to be horne:iu mind that severe punishment is not inflicted un- til gentler methods have been shown to he ineffectual, and if flogging' is the only influ- ence to which a brute, is susceptible surely no one but a crank will object to that pun- ishment being exercised.. - From this sketch of the penitentiary sys- tem in western 'Canada it will be seen that of the released convicts who make the States their home . all come possessed of some trade or occupation by which, if they choose, : they can make an honest living. Many will be reformed men and endeavor to .beeome good citizens ; the others will be deterred by fear of punishment front committing crime unless they discover: the habitual criminals have an easier time in the. United States than they do in Canada. If; therefore, the American prisons be man- aged with equal discipline to the Canadian ones no great alarm need be felt about this class of immigrants. . ' Several further reforms in prison Menage- ncntare being urged on the Doniinion.goyern- ment. One is the adoption of the " cellular" system, whereby the convicts will be con- fined to their cells instead` of mingling with one another as et, present, the arguments ism favor of the cellular system being that it A Lost Paradise, Green holds and young faces, Sunshine and flowers - Ah, in the far-off fairy places, Once they were ours!

Remodelling Dresses. Almost mo t any dress made within .the haat two or three years can be made over in the simple styles now iu vogue with straight skirts and trimmed bodices. For instance, the pleated skirts of woolen gowns, if faded, can be turned, and their voluminousbreadth will furnish ample material for en English skirt with plain front and sides and pleated back, and also for full sleeves. If this skirt'- is too short for thepresent elongated breadths, it can be lengthened by adding a border of striped, plaid or spotted wool, or else a bias fold of silk four inches wide, Hued with crinoline, can be set belaw the edge, and simply stitched on, a fashion seen on many of tate new English gowns. Another plan is to trim the skirt with three or four rows of velvet ribbon of graduated widths, the low- est row three inches wide, failing below the edge of the skirt and lengthening it. Should. the skirt be long enough, but frayed at the edges, a binding of thiek watered ribbon three inches wide will freshen. it, and give "character" to the plain skirt, The found- ation skirt, after lsaviugthe bustle and steels removed, should he faced with the material of the dress, or with that added. to lengthen it. . Thfull e skirt ' summer ki £ a >ilk dress Cad be lengthened by insertions of ribbons, or of white or black French lace, with eithe a hem scalloped n sc tothe e or a d ac at lacefoot, andm P . Yr be slightly draped as a long over -skirt, with a trimming of gathered lace or ribbon show - ug below it on the foundation. skirt, A white mnuslin dress can have insertions of tucked muslin or of embroidery let in above its hen., or else it can be lengthened by a border of embroidery at the foot. The bunched -up bads breadths of gingham or other cotton dresses trade two yearn ago are usually straight, and merely require to be cut Wet the top and gathered full to a belt. The front pleated breadths steed not be altered ; but if the apron drapery is very long, it should be shortened, and simply draped from hip to hip. The bodices of wool dresses can retain the fitted back by -melting the bascfue part more simple, in habit halm without pos- alion pleats, or by cutting it into tour square=cornered tabs, or, if albite long, the Louis Quinn coat back may be wade. The front of the waist can then have a blouse of plain, striped, or checked silk set 'upon it to cover it, and slight jacket fronts of wool can be made from pieces left from the full skirt. The coat sleeves can be widened at top by inserting a pointed puff of the silk, or caps of draped folds of the material can be added, or else entirely new alcoves can be made of the silk used on the front of the waist. If the bodice is so warn that it must be abandoned altogether, a pretty Nouse of India silk or surab can be used' with the remodelled akit-t, and this skirt' should be sewed permanently to a Swiss belt, or a whaleboned corselet made of . many small pieces left over from the skirt, well whaleboned and lased at the top in side.e threor five plaecs in front and an the' Other bodices faded or worn about the! neck and shoulders can have the soiled parts removed, and a round yoke or ono in S' shape, or a succession of vandyke points cau l he set on of sural, of repped silk, or of vel- vet, while for light materials ecru enb roid• er can be used instead. A square -cornered apnish jacket, cut from any lamo pieces: left from the skirt, will cover a badly fitted' waist, or one Corn out about the lain -holes. A corselet, or else pieces of embroidery or" velvet, sloped from the under•armseams to .t point in the middle of the front, will also renew sailed waists. High collars can be covered with two pieces of ribbon, each fold- ed over from top, or with a single wide rib. hon, or else with ecru embroidered muslin, which is new used on silk and wool as well as on cotton gowns. A bisque of ]asst sum- mer can be shortened to a alightly pointed bodice, and finished with ribbon folded along its edge and hooked hchiud under a rosette. Hope for the Hair'eso. The world moves and traditions fade; old ideals aro eliminated. Every one knows that to keep the hair nice it should be brush - eel vigorously night and morning, as well as they know the story of Adam and Eve. But the old order changes. The latest savant in- s'sts that the Bible story is all wrong, and' Lvo was created first in the garden, and the latest hair expert insists that you should never brush your hair at all, and only comb it very carefully ono a day. It seems that at regular intervals the hair drops out, to be replaced by new hair. The new hairs are, as they start, very tender little strangers, which cannot bear rough handling, any more than oilier new-born babies; the stiff brush tears them out and, in conse- quence, one's hair grows thinner from year to year. Again, never wash your hairin any- thing but lukewarm water, for hot water weakens it and kills its life. Instead of cut- ting the ends singe them very quickly and carefully, for every bit of hair cut off short- ens the hair permanently. Lastly, never use any one's comb or allow anyone to use yours, any more than you would exchange tooth brushes, for by so doing disease is acquired and communicated. AnyHustle. A Man Without Two men sat on a bench at the court house to enjoy the sunshine -one at either end of the bench. One was, apparently, wall fed and well-to-do. Tho other had, apparently, staked his all and gone down with the smash. For the first five minutes not a word was spoken. Then the hard -up man ventured the observation : '°Fine day? The other nodded. About five minutes later hard -up remarked : " Time to think of leaving town." A second nod. The interval was only three minutes this time, . when the speaker. inquired : " Think you could cash a cheek for me ?" A third nod. It was exactly a minute and a half before he continued : " It would be a great favor." his i.. The other put his handinto pocket but let it remain. The hard -up man , was now breathing in an excited manner, but he held himself back for fifty seconds before he said : "lt's•a small cheque -one for a quarter." The other extended a quarter in his fingers and looked up to say : " Might have had it fifteen minutes ago." "But I was afraid of working you too fast. I've been over in Missouri for three months and they took all the hustle out of me there. Why, they are so slow there that they were three weeks sending me to jail for five days and it took me two days to make up my mind to break out and two more to dig through the wall.
