Birmingham, Ala., April 16.—Rev. J. J.D. Hall, state chaplain to the convicts at Pratt Mines, announces that an organization has been form. ed at the prison that portends much good to the prisoners. The organ- ization will be known as the Prison Association, and its objects are to maintain perfect discipline in the prisons along the Ines of study and better morals. The membership numbers 65 men already, and the number of speeches made by the prisoners indicate that much good will result. A secretary has been elected and instructed to correspond with other prisons throughout the United States, and if they have such organ- {zations to get closer in touch, with the idea of increasing the means for advancement in prison life. .

A question arose as to whether they could be brought back. Detectives kidnapped them and took them to Montreal. There was a big legal fight over this section, and a Quebec judge issued a writ of habeas corpus, which was served on the jatl er at Montreal, who delivered the prisoners without notification to the extradition tribunal and permitted them to be rushed back to Quebec. Efforts to quash the writ of habeas corpus under which they had been returned were denied by Justice Caron, After a long legal controv- ersy Gaynor and Greene obtained their liberty within the limits of the province of Quebec. The United States government then appealed to the privy council of England, the highest court in that country.

Sloughton, Mags , Adril 16.—“I¢ is as though my boy had spoken to me from the grave.” These are the words Elisha Hawes, who fs nearly 93 years of age repeats as he reads and reads over again a letter he has just recelved through the dead-letter office, from his son, who died in Virginia during the Civil War. The letter was written 45 years ago. : Where the letter has been during all these years, and why it did not reach him sooner is @ mystery to Hawes and his friends. The young man was killed at the age of 22 by lightning after being at the front about six months. He en- listed in Massachusetts. The letter was the last one he had written to his family, With {¢ came a Ran- dolph paper of the same date. The boy was a great favorite of The Real “Defenders.” The Chicago Chronicle aske: “What was {t that plucked us from the dark despair in which the free silver craze had pluoged us, and in- augurated this unheard of and inde- scriable prosperity?” The Chronicle itself answers: “It was the contributions of thesecorpo- rations to the McKinley campaign fund.” And then the Chronicle gives this warning: “If the republican party now insanely punishes those for contributing to campaign funds who have.the most at stake in elec- tions and whose contributions have often been the salvation of the party in the past, it can confidently reckon op some kind of disaster in the fu- “T can’t realize,” saye Mr. Hawes, “that the boy who wrote the letter would be 67 years old and a Civil War veteran if he had lived.” The letter {sa boyish one, giving details about the long marches, and reckless; the lever has been moved to “fall speed, forward,” regardless of consequences. It is millions she re- quiree; it is a quick journey from the suburbs to St. James’, with fewstops On the way, and the oroinary man is notin a positiqn to travel the die- tancd and at the speed. He specu- lates, peculates, abandons principle after principle, becomes entangled in difficulties and detached from his habits and consequently from his home.
