(New Time) Buddhists as Jailers in Far Of Burma. It appears that the warders in Bur- mese jails are nearly always men' from the Punjab and' nore@®® India. They are large and muscular, but the ‘princi< pal reason for selecting them is that they are-not Buddhists. - The ‘Burman is sometimes employed -as a wWarder, bu. his. Buddhist education often. causes his prejudices to come in collision with his der. Aphoongyee, or Buddist priest, in-jail for' stealing, had been placed in solitary confinement for disobeying the pMson rules., His influence as a priest had_per- suaded a Burman warder to procure him some betel nuts, which, being discovered Yin his pogsession, caused his punish- ‘ment. The stone cell in which the priest was confined had a plank supported at both ends by insertion into slots in the walls. The plank served as a bed and at night the priest jumped on it again and again in order to force the ends out of the shallow sockets. The Burman sentry peeped into the aperture of the door and asked him to The convict replied that. he - was priest, and as such was forbidden sleep. on a raised bed. By this time he had got the board ‘free and to disarm the sentry's suspicions lay down upon it and feigned sleep. The sentry returned to his post, but a few hours later he wis alarmed to see the phongyee walked softly down the pass- age. He had used-the board as a lever to force out two of the bars in the. door, and had managed to squeeze himself through the aperture. The sentry, a Buddhist, was emb: rassed. - To lay viclent hands upon th¢ holy convict was out of the question; t¢ allow him to escape would hring punish ment upon himself. As the passag doors were "locked and the priest eaft for the present, the semry ventured te remonstrate with his charge on the Im propriety -of his behavior. The tramp of the relief guard war heard outside. The sentry krmelt and im plored the priets to return to his ecell The door opened upon the tableau—1 uniformed sentry in an attitude of sap: plication before a convict.
