THE HOUSE OF REFUGE.
Some Pacts In Regard to It's Management
During the Past Year.

Judge Jorlan, one OF the commissioners Of
the house OF refuge, informs the Sentinel
that $40, 600 of the appropriation for that in
stituton for the year ending October 81 was
unexpended. The legislature appropriated
$53, 900, and only Sl3, 900 was expended. OF
this latter sum $1,000 was used to build
chapel and make other improvements OF
permanent character, which have added
greatly 10 the comfort and health of the
boys, so that the actual expense OF the insti-
tution was only $4,000 There was paid
into the state treasury as profits made by the
boys in the chair shop and the money de-
rived from the sales OF hides, tallow and gar
den products, etc, the sum OF SIS, 500 thus
reducing the actual expense TO the tax.pay-
eTs for this institution TO $50, 200 There are
now 3S3 boys in the house The counties
sending the boys bear half the expense
which is fixed by the board. A few years
ago the cost OF maintenance was fixed AZ $500
for each boy; for the year Just closed IL was
sl2'. aud for this year il will be 800 The
reduction of expenses in this institution d.
rectly affects the ax-payers of Marion coun-
ty, as nearly oDe-fonrth of the boys go from
this county The people OF this county have
especial cause. therefore, to commend the
management for this large reduction but all
the tax pay ers of the state can return thanks.
There has been expended in former vesrs
$65, 1000. and no earnings paid into the tre >
ury. so that tue reduction is more than One-
half. and more boys have been in the insti-
tuIion than ever before
