INo Hon. VIM. H. Handy, Common Pleas Judge
i Of Henry county.
The unde rsigned appointed Board OF Inspectors
to examine the condition of all charitable and cor
recional institutions supported by the county beg
leave to summit the following;
The County Infrmary as u building, we find in
adequte to its needs, not possessing many of the
common conveniences of home for private fami-
ly much less the convenences that become absolute
nece ssities in public institution The committee
considered the absence Of bathing facilities the
greatest desideratum the directors when spoken to
about the matter promptly responded by sending
two bath tubs to the institution, but for want Of
means unable to place them and make them
co venient In the true sense.
We ind the building clean and the inmates ap-
parently well cared for the Superintendent and wife
making them as omforteble as the Inconvenience
of the building would allow.
The directors as far as the funds would permit,
have been solicitOus for the comfort Of the inmates.
having gotten nvads chair cost of thirty odd
dollars for paralyzed inmate, and various hui
man acts.
The Jail and Sherin's residence occupied by Mr..
Aer we found clean and hygenic in every part, re-
fecting much credit on the housekeeping qualifca-
tions OF the Sherif's wife.
The calaboose from the condition in which we
found 1t, would unhesitatingly say was no body's
child.

Pies and Ciyilizat on.

Henry Ward Beecher is credited with
a remark to the effect that pie is the
great sign of civilization. "Where there
is no civilization, he says, 'there is no
pie; but where you find civilization there
also you will surely find pie.
''This is undoubtedly true," said a
gentleman who ought to know, he being
connected with one of the largest pie
bakeries in the city. "At any rate, in
Chicago, one of the worlds greatest CEN
tcrs of civilization, you find pie in un-
limited quantities.
'Last year we made and sold I, 5S3, =
542 pies of all kinds, and now can turn
out, if neces ary, $4,000 per day. Apple
pie is the favorte, closely followed in the
season by whortleberry and in the winter
by mince. Cranberry pie is also great
thing in winter, and pumpkin, squash
and custard are in great demand: With
the exception Of apple pies, which are
good all the year round, the people de-
mand as complete a change of pie as
they do of clothing.
''Thc pie business is great institu-
ton. We have eighteen wagons out all
day long, and our barn contains forty
five horses Orders are taken by our
salesmen from their customers for the
next days supply, and the pics are, so to
speak, cooked to order, so that no stale
ones are left on our hands. We employ
about thirty-fve men and girls in our
factory, twenty-five of whom board in
house we have erected for that purpose
on the premises. "-Chicag0 Herald.

General Hancock's Slips of Memory.

An intimate friend OF General Han.
cock in speaking of the dead generals
personal peculiarities, said to New
York Tribune reporter:
''In most things the general was the
soul of exactness. but in money matters
he was laughably thoughtless. He would
frequently come over to the city without
cent in his pocket. On discovering his
moneyless condition look of helpless
surprise would come over his face, and
winking his eyes in that peculiar manner
usual with him when he..was puzzled, he
would say: well, declare! haven't
got cent. Will you lend me some
money! Of course the pocketbook OF
everyone was open to the general, but he
would only accept quarter or at most
half dollar and go off uptown as hap
py as a schoolboy. He always gave the
loose change in his pockets to beggars or
organ grinders and was lucky if he saved
enough to get himself downtown again.
One day he climbed up the stairs of the
Twenty-third street elevated station and
began to tumble n his pockets for

ever, the general was wonderfully exact.
He always kept every letter he received

who salutcd him, he would respond by
courteously lifting his hat, and would
frequently add, Glad to see you on the
island.'"
