THE TOMBS.
A Look Into the Great Prison
of the Metropolis.
flow It is Divided, the Prisoners It Will
Hold and Two Inmates' Stories
What is called the Tombs consists of
three prisons. The oldest one is the
place where criminals of the most hard¬
ened sort are kept. It is a long, high,
narrow dungeon with four rows of cells,
ono above the other, and numbering 144
altogether. A box Btands st the main
entrance and an armed guard protects it.
Inside two other guards are stationed.
A winding staircase leads to the top of
tho building, connecting with a platform
at every floor which extends all round
that tier of cells. The first floor is used
entirely for maniacs and condemned per¬
sons. The right side has borne for
many years the title of ‘Murderers’
Row.’ Padded cells for persons
afflicted with homicidal maniacs,
a hospital cell where sick persons are
treated, and a penitentiary cell for
disciplinary cases occupy the rest of the
floor. On the second tier criminals
whose offences are serious but not of the
capital grade are kept. These are felons
of all kinds. Above them are misde¬
meanants. When the old Tombs is full,
it will hold 288 persons. Its usual cen¬
sus contains about 230 names. It is
doubtful if a city prison could bo con¬
ducted on a better or more humane prin¬
ciple than prevails hero. The discipline
is necessarily strict but not severe. All
the work is done by tho convicts who
are there for comparatively light offences,
usually ten-day prisoners. These are
permitted to tako the first “help” at the
tables and allowed to cat in comfort. As
they could have no possible desire to
run away, their terms being short and
the penalty of attempted escapes being
severe, they roam about doing their
work without much interference.
As in almost all prisons, so in tho
tombs, there are persons wearing tho
prison garb, who are not in actual con¬
finement. I saw an old woman there
who was arrested 20 years ago. She is
now a confirmed rheumatic, all bent
with age and pain and scarcely able to
get in and out of the invalid chair where
her days and nights were spent. Her
faco has grown tranquil and beneficent
in its expression. Years ago slie com¬
mitted a great crime to save her hus¬
band from disgraco. The jury refused
to convict her and disagreed. She
stayod on in the tombs, gradually se¬
curing the confiJcnco of the keepers,
until she lost sight of her friends—or
they lost sight of her. She made her¬
self useful to tho matrons and declares
now that her last days, albeit three feet
of rock separate her from freedom, are
tho happiest she has ever spent.
An old silver-headtd man is there, too,
whoso step and bearing have not lost
their dignity despite his suffering and
laborious work. Ho looks as if he might
be eighty years old, but the keeper told
me that ho was scarcely sixty. No ono
knows much about him now except good
old Matron French, who has been there
thirty-six years, (and they say the Tombs
is not a healthy place), and Deputy
Warden Finley, whoso record is nearly
as long. They never answer questions
about the old man, for they would not
hurt the old man’s feelings for the world.
I hoard, however, that he hnd killed a
man at the behest of a human tigress
many years ago. This old man was
tried and convicted. He got a new trial
and was reconvicted and got a reversal
again. He has never since been tried
nnd there lie remains, sad, bowed, but
still showing traces of his former grace
and strength, sawing and cutting and
driving nails, while his heart is being
torn with the teeth of a relentless mem¬
ory.—[New York Tribune,
Smoke uml the Weather.
Row often we hear the remark, “We
shall have rain; tho ntmo>p'.iere is so
heavy.’’ The reverse is true, When
one sees the smoko hanging from a
chimney, with a tendency to sink to the
ground, it indicates that tiic atmosphere
is light—in fnct, too light to float the
smoko. When tho smoko rises from
the chimney it indicates a heavy atmos¬
phere. A column of smoke is not n bad
barometer, for a barometer is nothing
more than a recorder of tho pressure of
the atmosphere. When the atmosphere
is light nnd the smoke settles tho pres¬
sure on the mercury is light and the
column falls, indicating storm. When
the atmosphere is heavy nnd the smoke
rises the pressure is greater nnd the
column rises, indicating fair weather.—

A Carious Race of Dwnrfg.
Prof. Marapta has made a remarkable
anthropological discovery in the valley
of Ribas, in the Eastern Pyrenees. In
that district he found groups of persons
who are named by tho other inhabitants,
“Nanos” (the dwarfs) and who never at¬
tained to a greater tallness than four feet.
They are well built in body, havo ex¬
ceedingly small hands and feet and are
broad in the hips and shoulders. All
have red hair. Their cheek bones nro
prominent, their chins arc square and
large. Tho eyes have the slant tendency
of tho Chinese; the men are beardless,
•or they have at tho most only a few soft
hairs on the chin, the face is full, tho
skin pale and loose; it looks as if it had
no muscles beneath it; the men and
women are so like each other that only
their dress betrays their sex. Many of
them have swollen necks, goitre like,
but this is possibly to be attributed to
the water.
The Nanos are constantly objects of
the taunt nnd ridicule of tho other in¬
habitants of the valley. They live as a
separate people, marrying only among
themselves, so that the race is preserved
unique. Their intelligence is very low.
They have no schooling, no means of
bettering their existence, no one cum¬
bers himself about them, and they l ad
a miserable existence. ‘ ‘Many of tlioso
whom I questioned," says Prof. Marapta
“could not even tell me where they
lived. They had no conception of arith¬
metic. They were aminble in their man¬
ners, and seemed quite willing* to learn
something.”—[Pall Mall Gizette.
Ways of Urculhing;.
There are lazy ways of breathing nnd
one-sided ways of breathing, and tho
particularly bad habit of breathing
through tho mouth. Now, the nose wn 3
meant to breathe through, and it is mar¬
velously arranged for filtering the impu¬
rities out of tho air and for changing i*
to» suitable temperature for entering
the lungs. The mouth lias no sucli ap¬
paratus, nnd when tho air is swallowed
through tho mouth instead of breathed
through 1 he nose it lias an injurious ef¬
fect upon the lungs. — [Chicago H TaU.
