A T THE PRISON. [Michigan City Dispatch,] The 4th of July was not an uneventful day at the prison. Warden French met the men in the dining-room on the evening of the 3rd and made them a little speech in anticipation of the following day, telling them that a good dinner and all liberties consistent with the prison discipline was in store for them. That they should spend the day in social chat in the various shops, with all the reading matter, lemonade and gingerbread that they could want. He told them he believed the day could be thus passed without an infraction of the rules, and without a single man being reported during the day for misconduct. In conclusion he said;

“I do not ask one of you to make me a promise, but response to my request shall be the record of deportment at the close of the day.” The flag was thrown to the breeze at sunrise and the men marched to the shops with measured steps and cheerful faces. They came in at loon without a report for transgression. The warden was in the dining-room and welcomed them to dinner of roast beef, new potatoes, pies, cakes, lemonade, etc. They were accorded the privilege of conversation at table. The meal one hour, and the hum of convursu^un HUu men y umgiuer maue one forget prison walls, and all seemed convinced it indeed was a day of independence. The men returned to their shops and on being informed that a band concert by the Polish band of South Bend, was an afternoon feature they broke into hearty cheers. At 2:30 the band came on the prison campus, the boys gathered in the shop windows and on the lawn and enjoyed an hour of sweet music. Think of it; it was the first music of the kind some of them had heard in twenty years—yes, in twenty seven years. Was it enjoyed? Yes! and every man of the 821 turned in at night with a perfect record for the day. Thus with similar features will all the national holidays bo observed, and by their actions, more forcible than words, have the men said they will emphasize their appreciation of efforts made by the warden and his corps of trusted officials to do something for the moral and mental benefit of the inmates of the Indiana State Prison North. The Ram’s Horn, a religious (?) paper published at Indianapolis, is a down right beggar. The tone of almost every issue is about as follows: Money that is saved by robbing God, won’t buy very much. Doing nothing for others means doing nothing for God. . : T EV’o ting that you don’t give half enough. It is not easy for the Christian to give himself poor under the assurance, “Give and it shall be given unto you.’’ Getting, to have, is irredeemably sordid. Getting to give, is supremely sacred. No man can become rich by never giving away anything. Teaching children to be stingy is only another way of teaching them to steal. To fill the measure even full is all God asks of anybody, but when he gives to us, he always runs the vessel over. Spending twenty-five cents a day for tobacco and a quarter a week to help keep the church up, may look religious to some folks, but it is giving the devil Hia first chance nt vnur Docket-book.

Spending twenty-five cents a day for tobacco ami a quarter a week to help keep the church up, may look religious to some folks, but it is giving the devil the first chance at your pocket-book.

The above squibs were all taken from one small page of the Ram's Horn, a surface of nine inches by ten, ami every one of which is either a direct religious beg or hint to people to donate freely to tho preacher. Nine little begging paragraphs appearing on one page, nine by ten inches of a so-called religious journal! Wouldn’t it be a little more like true religion to devote a little more space of a religious journal to wholesome advice in behalf of the poor sinner, and a little less in square up and up begging for the preacher? Tho following startling discovery knocks all the wadding out of us. It has been discovered that Sara Born- । hardt, ths famous actress, is not Sara Bernhardt at all, ami that she is not I French at all, but just common stock and was born in New York State! Her name is said to be just plain Sara King! Just think of it —the low level to which the mighty must fall! And Sara, it is alleged, ran away from her home at the age of ten years! And now, since it has been discovered that it is nobody but Sara King, it is being whispered that she never was the actress she got credit for being. Her former admirers have gone squarely back ou her since she is but Sarah King, and American born. Who says there’s nothing in a name? I The Indianapolis Sun is working tooth • and toe nail, day and night, to be a : non-partisan paper. It makes a pretty ' fair stagger, but it should keep its eye J on the Independent for pointers in that I relation.

“Sainis" „ hoUing mMUogs M the Buffalo school house. The Brethren had a communion meeting at the Buffalo school house last Saturday night. One dozen of the South Bend members attended including their pastor, Elder I. N. Miller, and wife. The house was densely crowded. A very interesting children’s meeting was held at the Claybaugh school house oi. last Sunday night. The exercises consisted of song and recitations, which were extremely interesting. The meeting was, indeed, a grand success. They acquitted themselves nobly. The loom was beautifully decorated for the occasion. This was the first meeting of the kind in that neighborhood, and reflects great credit on those who participated. A very disgraceful affair occurred here on last Friday night, which casts a stijjma on the authors of the affair. The*e was ft ’ ‘ W ""J the case, men and boys immoea prettyfr„ . of “red eye,” became drunk, and a fight before McNiff's saloon. Ab Falguson, a man of 40, living about one nd a half mile east of this place, bounced’Will Miggins, a crippled boy of about 20, and got him down, but was badly punish^ for this mean act. He was bally cut with a knife and knucks by Miggins in one es his shoulders and face, and had to be braight to Dr. Denniston to have his w®mds dressed about an hour or two after midnight. Ab should have been home with his family. He has a wife and four (children.
