"I hope," he added, "the time will come coon when prisoners will be paid for the work they do in gaol, and the money go to their wives and families,, who are often the real sufferers." | .Correspondents who have complained of excessive charges by t«ci-cab drivers have asked why the authorised lares are not posted in the cabs. A Post reporter assertained that there is a bylaw requiring this to he done, but it has not hitherto been generally observed, for one reason because the printed cards are too large. Now. however, smaller cards are beini* supplied, .a-nd it is intended to enforce the posting of these.
