An Illinois Poor House.


CHICAGO, February 22.-The Tribune
this morning publishes description oi
the condition OF the poor house in this
county, which is located in the town Of
Jefferson about eight miles from this
city. As found by areporter, who via.
tied the house on tour Of investigation.
the account shows it to be q
disgrace to civilization. The unfor-
tunate inmates are represented as
being crowded like cattle into
the contracted barracks reeking with
filth and alive with vermin. Sick
and we'll are herded together while
the food furnished is not only 30
meagre in quantity, but OF such missr-
able quality that there is but little
choice between eating it and starvation.
A reporter spent night in the iustitu-
tiou and observed the manner in which
the psupers were lodged and fed, and
bis report OF the horrors he saw seems
almoet increditable.
