PRISONERS WELL TREATED.
Malefactors in Japan Are Given Every
Inducement to Mend
Their Ways.
That which is especially strik
;t| first sight in a dapnnese
prison is that there is no differ
ence between the prison and the
but of the free peasant, I he dap
tnese declaring, says I'ublie* Opin
ion, that if the prison were ele
vated to the level of a modern pe*n
fetitiary it would lx* too attract
ive and would increase crime,
rpon approaching the prison in
place of high and forbidding walls
you see a large -country house
with a series of outbuildings, the
prison itself being completely
open, while the wooden liars at
the windows have nothing of the
forbidding aspect of our ivongrat
ings.
The interior of the building is
compietol v ojien, although tor
merly a t I tchigoi there was a corri
dor separated front the building
by a paper wall where tbe guards
slept. The food given the prison
*rs is in proportion to their eon
duet and industry, the prisoners
who do not conduct themselves as
they should receiving a cake of
rice which must last for seven
days, while in the ease of the or
derly prisoner tin* same cake
lasts for only four days. The pris
oners who conduct themselves
properly rec eive also a little*horse*
meat with potato or jte*a sauce
with thedr meals.
FANS AIDED THEIR RUIN.
Matio&a That Are Addicted to the Use
of the Article Soon Go
to the Well.
A quaint comment on .1 a|»;»n***»«*
progress wuh contained in the re
mark of n war correspondent that
Japan's efficiency' was due to giv
ing up the fan.
It is certainly tin* fact that na
tions who are addicted to using
fans soon pi to the wall.
India with its punkahs had to
yield to a more masterful nation,
while the Chinese, who are more
accustomed to fans than swords,
l have heen an easy prey to other
and smaller.nations.
Two notable examples from the
| past are found in Rome and
11 recce. So soon as these races
i became languid and effeminate
| users of fans they were twept
ti way.
Fans, in fact, accord ini; to the
authority, are symbols of deeav
and effeminacy. Hut we ought not
to l*e hard on the fan users when
we remember the countless thou
sands of people in Europe who are
more accustomed to the umbrella
than the sword or rifle. It may
even be that some future histori
an will t race a connect ion bet ween
the use of umbrellas and the fall
of nations.
WHERE BIRDS GO TO DIE.
Seek the Most Secluded Parts of the
Woods to Escape from Their
Enemies.
‘•Hundreds of thousands of wild
birds die in England each year;
what becomes of them?” is the
puzlin-; question put by a natural
ist. who t t ies to answer it as fol
lows:
“When seized with illness manv
of them, no doubt, seek the most
secluded parts of the woods so as
1o escape their enemies; those
that die in exposed places are.no
doubt,speedily devoured by hedge
hogs, crows and other creatures
nol averse to food which they have
not slain themselves; and. lastly
multitudes of ants, flies and beet
les qui-kly consume any carrion
left undisturbed in the fields dur
ing the summer time.”

MUCH TRAVELED ROBIN
She Followed the Car Which Carried
Off Her Neet and
Young Ones. '
W. S. Keed, M. 1 >., tell* the story
of a robin that took possession of
a passenger coach which had been
left for several weeks unused at
East Thompson, on the South
bridge branch of the New York,
New Haven & Hartford railroad.
The robin built her nest on the
framework of the trucks under
the body of the car. The bird had
been seen around the car by differ
ent employes of the road, without
their suspecting the presence of
the nest until the car was coupled
on and hauled to Southbridge.
The mother followed the train,
and <m its arrival brooded and
fed her young, which were just
hatched. She followed the train
hark on its return trip to East
Thompson, where sin* again fed
and housed the young birds. < >n
the second trip of the train in the
afternoon, t In* bird again followed
her young to Southbridge and
back to East Thompson, where
the car was sidetracked and given
into possession of tin* robin, rent
free, until her family was grown.
The distance traveled by the bird
in tin* two round trips was SO
miles.
Unterrified.
“Tbit.” remarked a member of
tin* young billionaire's llible class,
“tin* good book says it will be eas
