Find Does convict road work pay? The continuance of the work in most of the States will depend on. its eco- nomte value. The National Com- mittee on Prison amd Prison Labor has been investigating- this side of the convict road question, and has received an encouraging report from A.D. Williams, Road Engi- Chief Jmeer of the State of West Virginia. The report covers the Kanawha County, and n conducted under the supervi- sion of M. P. Walsh for a period of ten months, half of which - was through the - winter. From No- vember, 1914, to June, 1915, the measured quantities on the Malden road ustructed by the convicts from the Dana Camp-were. 207 cubie yards rubble masonry in cement. 115 in. dry. 245 crete, 22 lineal feet 24 reinforced vitri- fied pipe, 220 lineal feet 18 reinformed vit- rified pipe. 408 lineal feet 12 reinformed vit- rified pipe. » 895 cubic yards foundation exca- vation. 23,388 cubic cavation. The total cost of this work amounted to $11,589.92, while the lowest of four bids received_ from private contractors for this<--8ame work amounted to $15,418.05, or $3,819.13 more than thie wgrk actu- ally cost when constructed by the prisoners. Twenty-five per cent. of the total cost of the work was, therefore, saved by the use of the prisoners. The success in this work is point- ed out by the committee to be due to the fact that the men in charge were efficient and desirous of suc- cess, and also had the welfare of the prisoners at heart, so that they se- cured interest and good-will in the work. A hundred add nineteen miles of road were completed during 1914 by the Montana prisoners, many miles work cubic yards rubble masonry cubic yards reinforced on- yards foundation ex- 'of which were 'through rough and Pr * the multiplication table 'beyond 4 times 4! : ------------ Marvels Of The Heart. Dr. J. C. H. Beaumont, the sur- geon of the White Star liner Baltic, who has returned from a three months' tour of the military base hospitals in England and Scotland, said that the rapidity in the removal of wounded men from the field to the base hospitals was one of the won- ders «of the war. Liners like the Asturias, Avon, and Aragon are con- stantly crossing the channel between Havre and Southampton, and each has accomntodation for 1.200 men. "In one case to my personal know- ledge a soldier was Reverely wound- ed near 'Ypres at 7 o'clock in the Mmornikg, and twelve hours later he had been carried across the channel and conveyed by train and automo bile in the Mile Ead road and sue- Cessfully operated upon," 'said Dr. Beaumont: : -------- In The Cameroons.

This extra commutation, according 'to a letter written by Warden Conley to the Nafional Committee on Prisons and Prison Labor; "is a great incen- tive toward good behavior and for this. reason escapes are few and a general feeling of contentment per- vades the prison atmosphere." The Montana success is largely due 'to Warden Conley and his sub- ordinates, who Afford every reason- able liberty to the prisoners and sel dom find their ¢onfidence mispls To develop men to handle convict road work in this way the National Committee on Prisons and Prison Labor has been working in co-opera- tion with the Gradulite High ay De- partment of Columbia University.

KING'S CLAIM TO GOLD: gative He'd Have All Pall Mall Gazette . Justice Avory has ruled that in wartime the King of England has power to commandeer premises -and land without 'granting any compen- sation. If he cared to exercise his royal prerogative to the fullest ex- his Majesty might also claim ions. This ciaim is based on the conten- tion once enunciated by way that possession fo a gold or silver mine would render him. Moreover, it was ruled that if mines containing silver, the entire, mine belonged to the King, as these, being the nobler metals, necessarily attracted the less refined elements. The British Em- pire: last year produced about £80; 000,000 (in gold and silver, so this claim would be well worth exereis: ing. S------ * 1 . .
