At One Time the Archbishep of Can- terbury Had About Twenty All Over the South of the Country-- Prelate of York Was Alse Wealthy In Residences, But He Has Also Fallen on Evil Days. Bishops' palaces nowadays are not what they were. In bygone times they vied in Pomp and magnificence PP itself. To day the buildings remain, but they ire put to much more sober uses. When it ig recalled that in former Says the Archbishop of Canterbury alone posses.ed something like a score of laces scattered over the South of England some notion may be gath- sted of the scale on which the Church did things in this res, in earlier tmes. Portions of these, in most {| *ases in ruins now, may still be seen it Croyden, Maidstone, Otford, Wrot- Sam, and elsewhere; but nowadays the Primate has only two official resi- dences--namely, at Canterbury and Lambeth, Curiously enough, the one at Can- lerbury is quite modern, having only been erected within the last fifteen years. Before this the country resi- dence of the archbishop was at Ad- lington, near Croydon, where the pal. Me is mow in private hands. A fine park is one of the features of the state, the cost in keeping up' which was one of the reasons why the arch- bishop's residence was transferred. Nowadays the archbishon spends most his time at Lambeth, one of the most magnificent and historic of all the existing episcopal residences. . The Archbishop of York. formerly had many palaces also. Of these the snly one now remaining, in addition to that of Bishopthorpe, is that at Southwell, now oocapied by the Bishop of Southwell. In very early days there was a residence in Lon- don attached to the see of York, the remains of which may still be seen in the shape of the old water 2 in the Victoria Embankment Gar- dens. For that matter, however, most of the bishops had London residences, in those days usually known as inns, the sites of which may still be traced In such pames as Chichester Rents, Salisbury Rents, Ely Place, and so on. Bishopthorpe, the oy residence of the Archbishop of York nowadays, is one of the largest of all the episcopal palaces, though atchilecturally not so thers, notably fine as some of the © Ely and Wells. The Bishop of London's principal residence is at Fulham, which has been identified with the seé of Lon- don for centuries. A moat right round the grounds of the palace testifies unmistakably to the antiquity of the building, though the greater part of that standing to-day is comparative- ly modern. The Bishop 'of London has also a house in St. James' Square, where many memorable meetings have been held. For full particulars and sleéping ear reservations apply to J. PF.

An Account of the Work and Duties of the Court Postmaster.

There is also a telephone exchange attached to the postoffice, where three opera- tors are employed. The letters for the King and Queen and members of the household are delivered to Buckingham Palace from the General Postoffice six times a day, the first delivery being made at seven o'clock in the morning. The mail, on its arrival at the post- office, is at once sorted (there are Nour sorters on duty throughout the day) and made up into separate pack- ets for the King, Queen, members of the royal family, resident officials in the household, and the servants. The whole mail is, by the way, carefully counted before it is sorted, and the number of letters received 2 entered in a book labelled "Mails nr After the packets for delivery throughout the palace have been made up the number of letters in each cket is counted and entered in a k labelled "Mails Out," and the numbers in both books must, of course, be the same. As soon as the mails have Been sort- ed they are given to two of the palace postmen, who deliver them to their respective departments. The letters for the King and Queen are delivered to 'the equerries' department and are placed in the secretaries' rooms by an equerry. The letters for members of the household are delivered to their re- spective private rooms, and the let ters for the male servants are de- livered to the steward's waiting-room, where they are put into a large rack, from which they are taken by ser- vants between 9.30 and 10.30 am. and 7.30 and 8.30 p.m. The letters for the female servants are delivered to the head housekeep- er's room, and are dealt with in the same manner as the letters for the male servants. Talent Not Transmitted. Alfred Tennyson's son, the present Lord Tennyson, appears to have in- herited little of his illustrious father's poetic talent. He has served as Gov- ernor of South Australia, and recent- ly contributed the accampanying lines to United Empire, the journal of the Royal Colonial Institute. Crities note that Alfred Tennyson, who never saw Australia, wrote the line: "By the long wash of Austra. lacian seas," while the son writes "the faint line of thé soft Australian shores." It seems but yesterday I saw at dawn The faint line of the soft Austrglian shores As fast we sped, borne o'er the whis- pering tide Within the grim heads of St. cent"s Gulf: And all the sea was barred with pur. ple and green And dazzling sunlight, such as South- ern climes Know only; while afar in distance shone Through tremulous haze the scanty scattered farms-- Homed in the quiet hollow of the hills A land, they said, where scents Of sweetest flowers float and where the grapes In honey clusters droop, a Para- Vin- of golden air, ise-- Of glowing blue and tranquil love. iness, Practical Criticism. The following is a criticism of "Hamlet" by a genius in New South Wales: "There is too much chinning in the piece. The author is behind the times, and appears to forget that what we want nowadays is hair raising situations and detectives. In the hands of a skilful playwright a detective would have been put upon the track of Hamlet's uncle, and the old man would have been hunted fdown in a manner that would have excited the audience out of their number elevens. - The moral! of the iece is not good.

Canteens and Gardens for Those Un- der Preventive Detention. Canteens, "private gardens, and so- cial and literary evenings are to be the iot of the well-conducted British convict of the future. by the prisen commissjon- ers, a draft of rules, modified in the case of persons undergoing preventive detention, was issued recently by the Home Secretary, Mr. Winston Church. i | In the course of his introductory remarks Mr. Churchill points out that discipline must be firmly maintained, and hard work enforced for those sub- ject to the new treatment. Neglect or relaxation would lead to escape or mutiny or vice. Only the professional criminal is aimed at in the new form of punish- ment, which is restricted to those al- ready found deserving of three years' penal servitude. It has proved a matter of much difficulty," comments the Home Sec- retary, "to. secure uniform action among 180 different police authorities throughout the country," and he pro- poses therefore to issue further in- structions to the police to guide them in the selection of cases for presenta. tion to the Director of Pubiic Prose cutions. : In addition to the qualifications ex- pressly required in the Prevention of Crimes Act, the criminal whose case is submitted must be (a) over thirty years old; (b) have already under- gone a term of penal servitude; and (c) be charge anew with a substan- tial serious offence. Under the draft rules the career of Mr. William Sikes, the professional criminal, adjudged worthy of preven- tive detention, will be something like that of a schoolboy. ? He will start by being placed in one of three grades inta which he and his fellows are divided--viz., ordinary, special and disciplinary. Six months later, if he hag been a zealous and fdustrious worker, he will be award- ed a certificate of industry and good conduet. Together with this certificate Sikes will receive a good conduct stripe, which entitles him either to certain privileges or to a smi®l inoney pay- ment Hf he continues to behave well he will at the end of eighteen months have received three certificates, which tle garden of his own.

Should he fall ill, genuinely ill, his gratuity will continue proportionate to his average earnings when he is in health, So long as he avoids the diseiplin- ary grade, he will be permitted to be a customer at the prison canteen, a new institution. ere will articles of food and other small arti. cles at costs which will be charged against the amount of his gratuity. After gaining his second certificate he has been allowed to associate with his companions in the evenings as well as 'at meal times, but now that he has reached the special grade he shares his meals with those who have been as well condusted ss himself. Not only this, but in the evenings he "shall be allowed sueh additional relaxations of a literary and social character as may be prescribed from time to time." Ee will be permitted, tdo, te write and receive a letter, and to receive a visit from a friend at fixed intervals Throughout his life within prison walls he will have been periodically visited by the prison chaplain, who is charged with the duty of promot. ing the reformation of those under his spiritual charge. Divine service will be held weekly in the prison, and there will be, in addition, such mission services, lee- tures and s on religious, mo- ral and secular, subjects as may be arranged. Not Again.
