Mr. Barnss was a man of sterling qualities, a good nelghbor and friend and will be great- ly missed both in this vicinity and in Westerly. As Hard on f as on Wilde. Rgut showed mahy of his old traits when he finally had to go to prison. He jested.with his’guards and appar- ently refused to take his fate with any seriousness. - But underneath this lev- ity any keen obgerver could see that he was very hard hit. Prison life to him will be as hard For ten years he has eaten the dainti- est fare prepared by French expert chefs and has slept on silken sheets. He has had at his command all the luxuries of a big city, the deference of politicians and _millionaires and the idolatry of the “roughnecks” and the unwashed in his party. Now he has exchanged his luxurious rooms for a small cell in San Quentin which he shares with two young San Francisco hoodlums, one of whom {8 a life prisoner for murder. Instead ot giving orders he must obey the prison regulations. Instéad of broiled chicken for breakfast he eats beef stew and drinks his coffee from a tin cup. In- stead of preparing political coups or legal documents he takes his place in the prison jute mil and winds inter- minable threads on big bobbins-in an atmosphere that is a smother of fine dust and small particles of this East Indian hemp. Those who knew Reuf the best say that he will endure confinement weil and that when Gov. Johnson goes out of office in three years Reuf will at- tempt to secure ralease on parole. He will be & model prisoner and he will soon be allowed to exchange manual labor in,the jute mill for some clerical work more in keeping with his train- ing. Certainly San Quentin prison has an ideal climate and surroundings for a prison, and miost of the rich men who have spent terms jnside its walls have come out better physically than when they entered its portals.—San Fran- cisco" Letter of March 18. Catholic Young Men. The American Federation of Catholic societies, of which Edward Feeney of Chicago is presiden, is appealing for th> organization of Young Men's Cath- olic associations, and in several cities Catholic laymen have responded. The federation includes in its membership most_seciaties of the church, benevo- lent anad religious, but it has a staunch religlous leaning, all of its articles of federation emphasizing loyalty and work. The new association is to copy Young Men's Christian _association ideas and ideals, so tho appeal states.
