County Judge George H Lyons of St. Clair county quietly put in an appearance: at the county jail last evening and to-day occupies his old quarters in the third story of the building on the north side. The judge was several days overdue. He says he received a letter from Judge Phillips last Saturday telling him to come back but did not start until after the storm. “The weather was too cold to hide out,” said Judge Lyons, “but I did think at first that I would wait for the officers to come after me. In that event I would not have had to pay my own railroad fare.” Judge Thomas D Nevitt, who has been alone in the jail for a week, was as pleased as a child with a new ba by brother to have his fellow prison er back again. The two old cronies welcomed each other as if they had been parted for forty years. Judge Copenhaver, who has been | ill for three months, is now down in bed again. He showed marked im- provement a short time ago, but Judge Lyons says he took a turn for the worse just before he left. Killed By A Missourian. Lineoln, Neb.

When there is no employ- |ment for them they must be lock jup in their ceils, and any prison man will readily say that this means il jbealth to the convict and possibly msunity. Outside of the officials and a few | jpersons about Jefferson City, the condition of affairs at the peniten tiary is uot understood. Ths State relies entirely upon leasing the la bor of convicts to contractors. Until within the last year no difficulty was jenucountered m leasing all the con victs the shop room would warrant, }aud consequently no provision wa- made fer a rainy day. The generai stagnation of business which affect- ed all lines of business reached the prison contractors and most of then have more men under contract now than they want A number of cou tracts will expire at the close of the present year and the contractors are not manifesting any anxiety to renew even on old terms of 50 cents per day for each able-bodied mav. Bur even if every contractor should con tinue his lease, there wouid still be nearly 900 men without profitab’e employment. The Warden and Inspectors ae practically helpless to overcom: such great obstacles as are now iv the way. The labor of convicts cu not be leased outside of the prison walls and there is no State work of any consequence upon which thes: idle couviets can be employed. The prison officials are hopin, that a change for the better will oc eur with the opening of the spring Some think that the matter is of sut ficient gravity to warrant Governor Stone in covvening the legislature to devise meaus for employing these convicts and adopting some moder laws for the government of penite « tiary.
