Tx Alabama a new prison coclo goes
into effect next month which, it is believed
will mitigate soinowbat the hardships of
the convicts. These, it is claimed, are
much less than in former years. It is
pleasant to bo able to record that so far
as this is true it is largely due to the efforts
of the Christian women of that state act
ing under the leadership of Miss Julia S.
Tutwiler, principal of one of the Alabama
Normal schools. Through their exer
tions the first schools for conyicta are
now being opened, under a law which re
quires the state to furnish a teacher to
every camp of one hundred convicts.
Another reform they have accomplished
is the heating of the county jails. A
stove or a fire of any kind is said to have
been unknown before now, with the inev
itable results of Bickuess and death. In
counties which have not taken advantage
of the law permitting then to turn their
convicts over to the state, the abuses of
the chain-gang system, which is practical
ly winhout supervision, are said to be
much greater than those of the state sys
tem. Perhaps the spirit of the authori
ties is sufficiently shown by the fact that
in several counties the Women's Christian
Temperance Union is no longer allowed
to hold religious services for the con
victs on Sunday. It is singular how
many points of likeness there are
bet worn this system of slavery and
the old one.

certainly is the strongest and greatest,
and most dangerous monopoly now iv
existence. It is possible that th's great
po wer'mayjaotbe abused for a season But
it is only a question of time till it will be
used to the great harm of the masses.
There seems to be but one remedy for this
threatened evil, and that is, for the gov
ernment to establish a telegraphic system
of its own which shall reach every busi
ness place in the whole country. And
while the rates should not be such as to
destroy or bankrupt the Western Union
company still they should be such as to
bring down tho price of telegraphing to
the bases of only a little more than its
actual cost, and secure truthful reports of
the new3 and markets so that the business
of the country shall not be affected by
the misrepresentation of facts. There is
plenty of surplus money now in the
United States' treasury to build up eucIi
a system in a very short time and plenty
more to Bpare. "What a grand t'jHg it
would be for the country if the surplug
money now locked up in tlj'j treasury
vaults could be u.scd for this purpose.
That vat amount of money would tt
ouee be put into circulation through the
pockets of the laboring manse:, r.ud tba
country would be saved f.-o:n the dk
asters which this dnugerous ."rid uav.' r

manently ?Ji Paris. Thibis an interesting
announcement to society, because M.
Kron ii one tf the richest men in tlx
world, and will doubtle.-s live in a stylt
bef ttmg his wealth. The stc-y of hi.
ripe from poverty and obscurity to wealth
i and honor is a curious one. It was m the
reign of Czar f.tctioias. M. xvron was
then a young man a tailor's clerk, I be-lie-re
in St. Putsre.-urg. One summer
ths weather was un'j-uaHj hot, and an
epidemic of fevr broke cut in St. Peters
burg. People died by thousands. Itwiis;
(i veritable pestilence and threatened to
depopulate the city. The doctors were
powerless to check it.
One day M. Kron wrote in one cf the
papem tliat t.U the trouble wa? in the
water the pecjle drank. It was drawn
from the Neva, and ell the Eev. ers cf the
j city emptied into tjte Neva; conseouently
i tjie rsople were drinking diluted sewage.
It is a rema'-hftble cojumentary upon
yusi;Mn int'.!.U:enc3 that no one had
thought of thi3 before. But now C?.ar
Nicholas rerd II. Kron's suggestion and
at once ordered n pood water supply to
b-j secured, no matter what it might cost.
The imperial engineers went to work, but
m-L-t with obstacles they could not over
come. Nicholas sent them to Siberia and
eei others to work on the problem. Tliey
faikd, tco. and wore sent to Siberia, and
a tliird set of engineers went at it. Thc-y
not only failed,"" but they convinced the
czar that it wa3 an impossible task, pnd
he decided to abandon it. Then 2.1. Hi on
came forward. Reorganized acompany
and carried the work to completion.
Thereupon the czar bestowed a decoration
upon him with bis own hand and gave
him a fortune of t'Ci, 000,000, and tlie
czarina wrote him an autograph letter of
thanks. The enterprise was, of cc urse, a
profitable one, apart from the royal favor,
and SI. JCron i now said to be worth up
ward of $30,000: CC0. Paris Cor. Chicago
