They Discovered.
Special Correspondence OF The Register.
MoUNDsvILLE, February 5.-The
special Legislative committee, consist
ing of Messrs. Price, Davis, Gibson,
Stone and Marcum, arrived at
the penitentiary to investigate its work
ings and recommend whatever legiSla-
tion they deem essential. All the mem
bers were in attendance, but Delegate
Stone, OF Wood county, asked to be ex-
cuSed from active work and returned TO
Wheeling on the morning train. They
visited the warden's building, the com
miSSary department and the different
workshops, and were highly gratilied
with the workings OF the institution.
and think the management compares
favorably with that of past years. The
halls and court have been thoroughly
renovated and cleansed so as TO have a
very presentable appearance. The
greatest drawback to the institu-
ton is the want of room. There
are now 302 inmates Of the
prison, ten OF whom are females, with
only $50 cells TO accommodate them,
while about fifteen occupy what is
called the bummers department in the
Warden's building. Fifty-six new cells
were lately constructed in the North
cell building which has heretofore been
used as a dining hall, but they are all
occupied at present. The committee
will ask for an appropriation 10 build
another tier of cells TO accommodate
the rapidly increasing influx, and also
a dining hall and hospital combined out
in the open yard, that the smell of the
cooking yictuals can be kept away from
the Warden's apartment. This recon-
mediation has been repeated for years
but never acted upon, but it is to be
hoped that the present Legislature will
act with wisdom and provide the neces-
sary buildings in the near future. The
members of the committee returned 10
Wheeling on the afternoon train except
Senator. Marcum. who remained over
for the purpose of visiting some OF his

comb Riley'S little poem OF the girl who
lost her lover-by marrying him. The
muslin was gathered about her neck
like the gCimpe of three-year-old;
at the waist il was Shirred like a
child's Greenaway and girdled with a
white ribbon whose sash ends carried a
pocket: below the waist it fell straight
and long 10 the feet, without adorn-
ment The sleeves were gathered AT
the wrists, and from the shoulders huns
floating cversleeves. "Why thought
said the girl-she'S barely twenty-"it
was pathetic" as roarS OF laughter
greeted the verses, 1.-THE most pathetic
thing in the world"
People make much this winter OF the
gorgeouSneSS OF Mrs. AStOr'S entertain
ments; she is equally gorgeous as to hei
gowns. There is Fifth avenue mOdlSte

hands with the little reiitting necessary
after their stormy Atlantic voyage.
Here are two Of the toilets have lately
seen:
A silver gray satin with court train
this was cut as stately princess robe
the long folds breaking into white
lights, as the moon shines sometimes
begging its pardon for the comparison
on clouds. Heavy gold arabesqueS
formed rich border, overlapping the
front of priceless lace fOunceS. The
polonaise bodice did not reach higher
than the arm-pitS and was cut away in
front in quaint curves, with ara0esqut
edgings. leaving narrow side pieces I'LL
ed i'm with lace; which also draped the
top OF the bodice and made the short
uuifed sleeves. On the bosom was q
many petalled lace rose, meant 70
twinkle with huge diamond dewdrop:
and to hear in its heart great diamond
star. On either shoulder and ON the
left hip, catching the lace draperies
were other lace flowers meant also u
carry many and large diamonds.
