REFORMATORIES
Special to The News.
Greensboro, N. C, Feb. 27. Prof. M
W. Thompson, of Concord, the recently
elected superintendent of the Stone
wall Jackson Manual Training school
for wayward youths, and Hon. J. p.
Ccok, chairman of the board of di
rectors, are here today in consulta
tion with other members of the board
in regard to getting things in shape to
begin building. Superintendent
Thompson has returned from a- visit of
inspection and examination of recog
nizedly successful reform schools in
other states, under direction of the
board of directors.- -
The three principal institutions vis-istc-cl
by him were the Dobbs Ferry
school in New York. The District
of Columbia Reform. School near Wash
ington and'the Glenn Mills Schools of
Philadelphia.
Prof. Thompson comes back more
enthusiastic and determined than ever
to urge forward as fast as possible the
fruition of hopes of a great institution
for the saving of youths in North Car
olina who have been wayward or have
committed offenses against the law.
Ho found that the cottage system has
been substituted everyhere for the
old great building in which were con
fined hundreds of boys of all grades
and ages. At Glenn Mills School,
which was established 80 years ago,
the old system has been entirely su
perseded by the coottage plan, groups
of boys according to age and degrees
of offense being placed in colonies of
30 or 40 in cottages under special at
tention, all being subject to regular
school discipline and without any ap
parent physical restraint. At this one
institution there are 700 boys all doing
some form of industrial work at certain
periods of the day and being taught
"book learning" at others. There is a
system of parole whereby boys are al
lowed to go out under probation. The
records of the institution show that of
the thousands of boys who have been
either discharged of paroled within the
past twenty years under the new sys
tem SO per cent, turned out to be use
ful citizens self-supporting law-abiding
and in many cases reaching dis
tinction in some honorable calling: ;
The boys are under military training
and are taught useful trades which
greatly contribute to the expense of
the schools.
The North Carolina school will be
built on the cottage plan, as by this
means work can be besun on a small
amount of money. The first building
will be erected at orfce, and will be
ready by October 1st for the reception
of 30 beys. This building will cost
$3,500. On the splendid site near Con
cord, the grounds will be laid off in
view of a great institution for the fu-
Jture, each building erected fitting hi
with this design ot larger work in
the future.

Winston-Salem, N. C, Feb. 27.
Jim Smith, of Smithtown fame, who is
in jail here in default of a $10,000 jus
tified bond, awaiting the April term of
federal court at Greensboro, thinks he
will be able to arrange bail within the
next few days.
He says that if his bond is not ar
ranged this week "I am going to do
some writing."
When: asked about the murder of
Revenue Officer Hendrix, Jim replied
that his counsel had instructed him
not to4alk of the case at all, but said
he was not the one that killed Hendrix
and this he would swear. Said he be
lieved that Oscar Sisk or his wife kill
ed the revenue officer and were going
to try to put it all on him, Smith. The
prisoner says he hopes the papers will
speak more favorably of him in the
future than they have in the past; that
they have ben printing a great deal that
is not true.
"I am no desperado, as some of tne
papers have stated," declared Smith,
who says that when he gets out of jail
he is going back to his family, who
need him.
Mardi Gras Visitois
In N iv
l New . Orleans! la., Feb. 27. With
thousands of Mardi" Gras visitors
here from every section of the coun
try, and with every arriving train
swelling the congestion of strangers
on the streets, New Orleans is again
ready for her famous spring carnival.
The indications are that during the
remainder of the week the five trunk
lines will be pushed to , the limit of
their resources in handling travel
to the city. Hotels and boarding
houses will be filled to overflowing.
The Mardi Gras visitors this year
are largely people from the neigh
boring states, with a considerable
number from the Middle States and
the West. The quota from the East
is not quite up to the proportions
of some previous years. Cuba and
Mexico, on the other hand, are send
ing more sightseers than ever before.
Some of the preliminary events of
the carnival programme will begin
tomorrow, but the big parades and
balls will not take place until the
first of the week. The arrangements
for these spectacles have been com
pleted on a scale of unprecented
magnificence. '
