: J G. Wells, who was placed in charge
of the Kentucky institution a few
months ago.
Warden Wells is in Atlanta to at

% His attention was called ito the re-I
Vent agitation by some of the Georgia
Vnonvict camp wardens who wish again |
«o be given the privilege of whipping
their women prisoners. It was then
tie made known his own policy in re
spect to corporal punishment. He
said none of his prisoners had been
Hogged since he took office, although
some of them are the most hardened
characters. Many life termers remain
!in the reformatory, but it is the in
tention to remove these to the State
penitentiary wihln a short time.
Never Had Whipped Prisoner.
"1 don't sa> that I never will flog
a prisoner, hut I never have, and 1
really never expect to have to,” said
l he wardeh.
When he was told how county war
dens are chosen in Georgia, choice be
ing governed in many instances by
friendship or political considerations.
Warden Wells shook his head in dis
approbation and remarked that a
more destructive system and one
more demoralising to effective penolo

Warden Wells said that 40 members
of the reformatory population are

How They Are Disciplined.
,How does he discipline these hard

lash?
Hero is his answet :
By night classes attended by half
the prison population.
By a system of demerits imposed by
a prison court of the same style as tn
ordinary police court- “except that we
treat them better," says the warden,
By meetings for the guards and
other prison official.**, in which all the
phases of criminal life and prison dis
cipline are considered and planned.
By deprivation of privileges for
minor infractions of prison discipline;

of prison life the women grow into
Just as rabid ‘fans’ as the men. For

Tho United States has more sav

country in the world. It has four times
as much as France, as much as
France and Germany combined and
not far from half as much as all
other countries combined. Its grand
total is $4,500,000.000—four and a half
billions of dollars. The average to
each depositor is $445. If the total
were distributed, every man, woman

Davies Warfield, chairman of the j
hoard of directors of the Seaboard
Air Line Railway, and president of |
the Continental Trust Company of j
Baltimore.
Mr. Warfield yesterday witnessed
the performance of “La Giocondu,” |
and forthwith moved up into the
front row of Atlanta boosters.
“That Atluntu should support an |
opera that equals, end in some ways |
surpasses, that of New York,” he de- j
clares, “is almost unbelievable. I have ;
never seen anything that impressed !
me more than the performance yes- :
terday afternoon. Never before have :
l seen as brilliant a gathering, not !
even in New York."
This stupendous sum is in urgent
need of additional protection. Ton
many savings oanKS in the Empire
St?.te are hoverinq dangerously near
the bankruptcy line Some of them
have not a reserve of $1 for each $10C
on deposit. Worse still, there is no
law enabling the authorities to en
force the correcting of this alarmin'*
deficiency. Ncthinci more deplorable
could he imagined than any untowar
incident which would start a stam
pede of the 3,000,000 savings bank de
positors in this State which might
spread to the 10,000.000 depositors
scattered throughout the Union.
NEW YORK, April 25.— Harry
Kemp, the “tramp * poet.” is utterly
disappointed* that Upton Sinclair
"should do so conventional a thing
as get married.”
It was Kemp’s attentions to the I
first Airs. Sinclair, which furnished j
the novelist grounds upon which to
divorce her.
"What a lvactio^!-" he exclaimed
disgustedly, ".imagine Upton Sin
clair getting married! And with all
ihat society Hub-dub, and the la-la-
la—
I’ve not ik.e slightest animus
against Sinclair, and 1 know hi

But what does he gel married for.

The delightful and fantastic "Tales

offering to-night in tho Auditorium.
This lyric opera, which was one of
tin* last works of Jaquea Offenbach, is
recognized as one of his best produc
tions. It is clever and unusual in its
situations. It is amusing without
having the buffoonoiV with which Of
fenbach tilled some of his other op
eras. And, unlike man> of his other
operas, the music is well fitted to the
words and action.
To-night's opera is expected to at

His Sp’ v ituality Was
Far Too ‘Spirituous’
So Julius McBrayer Served Time on
Chaingang—Sentence Just
Commuted.
Julius McBrayar declares he never
again will seek to increase the fervor
of his religious worship by resort to
spirituous liquors.
McBrayer tried it in a Haralson
county church some time ago anil
only yesterday the commutation of
his twelve months’ sentence on the
chaingang was announced. McBrayer
took an active part in the church
service#, but his spirituality was of
the wrong sort.
Companions of McBrayer were let
off with fines of $50. He. because he
had given trouble before, was given
a more severe sentence, which was
commuted to present service on the
payment of a $100 line.

The great majority—nearly a*l—o
our savings banks have been oapabi
unselfishly and patriotically managed
They are philanthropic institutions
The trustee of a savings bank accepts
a sacred office. His duty is not to pay
unwarranted rates of interest in order
to outdo a rival organization, but
first, last and all the time to insure
the absolute safety of every dollar
entrusted to his care.
The savings banks, however, have
been victims of circumstances. You
to the very finest securities in the
land. But do you also know that
these securities have been sinking,
sinking, sinking in value during re
cent years? Competition for capita!
has been so keen throughout the
world that borrowers—Governments.
States, municipalities, railroads, pub
lic utility companies, industrial cor
porations. mercantile firms and indi
viduals—have raised interest rates to
such heights that the older bonds
carrying 3, 3 1-2 or 4 per cant, have
naturally fallen in price since they
yield so much less than the ones now
being offered.
New York Central 3 1-2 per cert
bonds, which sold above 111, are nov.
worth only 84. New York City’s 4
per cent bonds have fallen from
103 1-2 to 92 1-2. Atchison 4 per
cents, once worth 106, are now below
93.
You can thus sae how the assets
of the savinos banks have shrunk in
value, incidentally. I do not believe
the decline in bonds will go appre
ciably farther, but that is not the
po*nt.
