Kitchen drain outlets should be exposed to the sun. t. To keep tree roots out of drains where the drain must pass under trees cement should be used around the Joints. S.

Value of Moving Pictures in Prison By ELLA WHEELER WILCOX. i Almost a decade ago a boy of twenty was sentenced to a life term in a New England prison. In writing to him recently, a former acquaintance mentioned moving pic j tures. The young man replied with a let ! ter full of curiosity. ""What did you mean by moving pictures?" he asked. "Was it a Joke. ;or is there something which you really call moving pictures'.'" The prisoner's inquiry opens up whole volumes of desolation in the history of prison life. At first thought it seems incred ible that any man of thirty exists, liv ing in this epoch, who has never heard of the animated screens which fill such a place in the present day entertainment of human beings in all parts of the world. In th« most remote places of earth the moving picture is known, and the Arabs on the great Sahara Desert, and the wild men of Darkest Africa, and the Indian of the plains, all par ticipate In its marvels as, moving pic ture artists. Hundreds of Prisoners Never Heard of Moving Pictures Yet here, In our civilized and pro gressive land, are hundreds of men, tn j .-arcerated in prisons, receiving so icalled spiritual Instruction every Sun day in the chapel, who have never seen, and in many cases, doubtless, i like the one quoted above, have never I heard of the moving picture. Mr. Osborne, the new warden of i Sing Sing Prison, is inaugurating a better system of treatment for the unfortunate men who have been sen ' ter.ced to' live within four walls and work for the State. He is demanding i a new order of prison, with farm work, and outdoor life for these men, and the State of New York will I no doubt soon take the lead in the much needed reform of our land. Now let the moving picture enter tainment. in the form of instructive Council in Special i Session Amends P. and R. Co.

Incalculable Good Could bo l»onc by, flight Sort of Pictures Incalculable good can be accompli shed if those who take the matters in charge use understanding, thought and sympathy and discretion In planning entertainments which will appeal to the best and highest quali ties in human nature. Beautiful scenery, pictures of for eign lands, plays where valor, self control and the moral attributes are j made admirable, pictures showing the \ cultivation and growth of plants and j trees, would a)l be uplifting and help- i ful to the men who are paying the, penalty for breaking the law. The picture business now covers, such an enormous field that it would be a simple matter to select or ; arrange the right kind of display for prison entertainment. One evening every week devoted to such plays would have a greater in fluence upon the inmates of prisons for good than all the sermons preach ed from the chapel during the year, j Men who have gone wrong, and . who are paying the price, are as a j rule steeled against those who attempt ; to evangelize them.

It is a rare thing to find a man who has been really converted to moral- 1 ity and to the highest thinking through the instruction he has re ceived while serving a sentence in ; prison.

He had determined to spend the late Fall in his Island home with his wife and children, and he and his son, leav ing New York, started late In the even ing to row across the Sound to the is land. The boat capsized. The father could swim and the boy could not. He caught his boy by the collar and swam to the boat, but the boat turned over and he lost his hold upon his boy, and the boat was too slippery for him to keep hold of. For an hour he did his best to rescue his child. Once he got hold of his coat with his teeth and held on. battling vigorously with his hands, but the coat tore and the boy sank out of sight. The fathei barely made his way to the shore; he Is now a physical wreck, they say.

May 6.—The case | of the defenes in William Barnes' | suit for libe lagainst Theodore Roose- ' veil is nearly completed, attorneys l said to-day.

When court opened the Col onel went to the stand, but Mr. Ivins ; announced thai he would not cross- i question the witness, so he left the j chair. asked Mr. Osborne if he did not think it wrong to make prison life so attrac tive that men would want to be crimi nals to enjoy the life prepared for them in these institutions. This type of "good people" will, no doubt, object to the moving: pic ture entertainment on the same ground. But it is a far-fetched fear, and does not rest on the foundaton of common sense. Men have been known to suffer RO keenly from the pangs of hunger and cold that they committed some mis demeanor in order to be fed and shel tered in Jail. But such cases reflect upon our industrial and social sys tem, and not upon the too attractive and luxurious conditions of our pub lic institutions of punishment a.nd re form.
