Discussing their visit to the South, Governor Carroll said: "We have visited a number of South ern states, generally to study a partic ular phase of prison life and control in each. "Here in Georgia, for instance, we are looking into the matter of roads con structed by convicts: We have heard good reports of Georgia in that connec tion. To See Road Camps. “We shall not visit the prison farm, perhaps, as we wish to visit as many road camps as we can. We desire to be able when we return to lowa to render an intelligent report, and we expect the legislature to provide a model system of handling convicts, made up of the best we can gather from the states we visit. "Georgia has had its convicts on its roads long enough, we feel, for us to find out how the scheme works." The visitors spent a short time with the governor, who welcomed them most cordially to Georgia. The prison commission entered into considerable detail, explaining Georgia's method of handling its convicts. This afternoon the lowa party will be taken to visit the Donaldson road camp, near Atlanta. DIVORCEES. SEPARATED 27 YEARS. MARRY AGAIN ST. LOUIS. MO., Oct. B.—Alexander C.
