REMOVING A WHOLE PRISON The New Reform Law in Effect in In- diana, Stories Told of Old Prisoners and ‘Their Behavier on the Rail- road Journey. mday 368 convicts in the Indiana state on every | prison at Jeffersonville were sent by spe- cial train to the prison at Michigan City wr ° and 291 young prisoners from Michigan City were conveyed by special train to Jeffersonvilie.. This is in accord with the new prison reform law. The northern and soutpern institutions are hereafter to serve distinct purposes. The institution at Jeffer- sonville becomes the Indiana reformatory, while the Michigan City prison is to be known as the Indiana state prison. The effect will be to separate the hardened and confirmed criminals from the first term prisoners under thirty years of age. Every foot of track was inspected fifteen minutes before the trains passed and every bridge was carefully examined. Even the switches ‘were spiked and the trains were given the right of way over everything. No stops were made for crossings, Governor Mount having given permission for this violation of the state law, and no stops were made except for the purpose of changing engines or taking water. The account of the removal as told in the Indianapolis News gives a most interest- ing picture of the lights and shadows of prison life. “At 5:30 the guards reported for duty, and they at once aroused the prisoners. All those who were to be transferred were crdered to go at once to the dining room. where breakfast had been prepared for them. Before the men rose from the break- fast table, Assistant Superintendent Gar- vin made a brief speech to them. He told them that they would proceed at once to the train that was in waiting, and that all of them would be shackled as a pre- cautionary measure. He told them that all men who had any personal belongings which they wished to take to Michigan City might go at once to their cells, get their bundles and take them to the train. As soon as they had their effects on the train they were to return at once to the dining room. The removal of the personal belongings of the prisoners was a sight. Nearly every man had some little bundte which he wished to take with him. A great number of men had musical instru- meats, and more than one prisoner had his things packed in a Saratcga trunk. While the men were carrying their things to the train, four convict blacksmiths were in the dining room getting ready for the manacling of the convicts.

As the men came in they were seated on the floor, their backs against the wall, and the heavy irons were riveted about their ankles. It took less than a minute for each couple of men. The whole process of ironing the men occupied one hour and twenty minutes. y did not seem to resent being placed in irons, but rather recognized it as a precauti.n prep- erly taken by the prison officials. It was rather pitiful to see them walking, Tather stumbling, away after the black- smiths were through with them. “They found it difficult to keep step with each other, a measure rendered necessary by the shortness of the connecting chain between the shackles. Most of them put their arms about each other's necks and 80 mutually sustataing each other, limped down the yard and aboard the train. “The saddest part of the early morning's embarkation was the carrying of the sick prisoners to the car. There were five of these, all of them bedridden, and very weak from consumption. They had to be carried to the train in cots, improvised of a Strip of canvas supported between two iron rods. They were carried as carefully as possible, but in spite of it all the un- wonted exertion left them lying on the floor of the baggage car, used as a hospital car, gasping for breath and coughing vio- as A $3 Hardwood Rocker. targe size. nicely finished, at th ‘nf ridiewlous price OOo = 4339 ‘7.

When the prisoners had taken their places in the train, there were seats for all. Assistant Superintendent Garvin went through the eight coaches, counting the heads. He found that the number—368—exactly corresponded with his list, and he gave the order for the train to proceed. “The switch leading out of the rear of the reformatcry runs up a steep incline, and two Pennsylvania engines were necessary to haul the train on the main track. There the two extra coaches were waiting, one an ordinary day coach, containing the militta; the other a parlor car, the same in which W. J. Bryan toured the state, for the use of the officials and others. At the suggestion of Mr. Garvin, the militia were kept out of sight. The blinds were pulled down, and, although the convicts in their coaches passed the car containing the sol- diers, they could only guess what it con- tained. There were twenty-eight militia- men in the car. Many of them saw service during the coal miners’ strike in Sullivan county. A lerge crowd had assembled in the rear of the prisor to watch the coaches pull out. Fully 2,000 were gathered there. Many were attracted merely by curiosity, but there were weeping women and anx- fous-looking old men in the crowd, rela- tives of some of the convicts, who had come down to have a last look at them be- fore they are lost to sight amid the sand dunes of Michigan City. “The prisoners took it all as a matter of course. They betrayed no expressions of surprise, but some of them laughed at peo- ple in the crowd who ran screaming and excited by the side of the coaches. Only one man is known to have shown any signs of emotion. This was Henry Ritter, a life- time prisoner, sent from New Albany for Bed, with brass rauls... Good Iron Beds, trimmed with brass.

During Warden Patten’s term an inquiry Was made from that state as to whether Rittenhouse was wanted, but the warden had no instructions from the United States authorities, and so did not move in the matter. Coleman, during the last year of Gov.

At the dawn of this century the appear- ence of a steam engine would have created a greater impression than the after-Christ- masz sales produce upon the female mind; today there are more than $27,400 miles of rails along which the pantiag engine speeds its way.

The advantage, however, lies with England by four-fifteenths of a mile per hour, the United States comes next, and makes a very close third indeed. ——__+-+—___ The Peruvian Potter. From Popular Scieae Monthly. A long slim neck is a distinguishing fea- ture of much of the Peruvian pottery, and nearly every vessel is ornamented with a figure of some sort, having holes to rep- resent eyes and other openings. These af- ford a passage for the air forced out by the liquid when poured into the vessel. By an ingenious contrivance the air in escap- ing prodttcés a sound similar to the cry of the creature represented. Thus a_utensil decorated with two monkeys embracing each other on having water poured into or from it would give a sound like the screeching of those animais. One decorated with a bird would emit bird-like notes, while a mountain cat on one jar would mew; snakes-colled arotind another would hiss. The most curious thet we have seen was the figure of an aged woman. When the jar was in use, fer. sobs became audi- ble, and tears trickled down her cheets.
