character, and indicate that had Albert
Garvin, OF Joliet, Ill. not been made
warden at saltwater nearly 500 prison
ers would have set themselves loose
bv their own hands. The testimony
showed that there was absolutely no
discipline under Warden Randall, that
the prisoners only worked when they
wanted to and were armed TO the teeth.
When Mr.. Garvin and his deputies
made their search of the cells, they
were surprised to speechle-sn by
what they found. In one place they
ran upon twenty-siX fine steel saws for
cutting bars, in another two slung-shots,
and in another a twenty-five
inch steel Jimmy. Wrapped up
in ''Iifpr's' bed clothes they
found a double-bladed axe and two ten
inch iackscrews. A seven year man IN
for criminal assault had managed to
conceal hand axe, and knives AMI ra-
zors We're found in hloOl-curdllrg ro-
fusion. There were siXty-seven knives
with blades from five to ten inches long
and titty-One razorS. Besides tins ar

placed before the senators the following
interesting collection: One hundred and
tittv-tive steel files from four inches to
fourteen inches long, twenty steel bits,
eight cold chisels, five pairs pincers, SIX
rat drills, twenty plncers and avis,
thirty-tour hammers, seventeen mon

steel in preparation for something,
one coil of brass wire, three small oil

mnulders' tools, and two pieces of steel
eight inches long. The committee was
dumhfounded at this array Of weapons.
1t was evident that the prisoners We're

other and the outside world, and were

SWIMMING IN THE RIVER.
Earnest Plea by Young Man
for a Public Rath.

Three young men, arrested for bathing in
the river Thursday. were discharged in the
municipal court yesterday with a reprimand.
The police reporter of the GLOBE had
just turned in" the above item when
Charles D. Ward. an attache of the
Hotel Ryan. entered the editorial rooms
and submitted the following letter for
publication:
l find / am reported in this mornings
issue OF your paper as having been arrested
for swimming in the river ''at the foot of
Sibley street. This account was not exactly
correct, as the locality was Broadway The
spot on S1bley street is very open and public
whilst that on Broadway quite the reverse
and any one at all acquainted with the two
places will at once perceive the great differ
eDce this makes IN the moral aspect of the
case.
am highly gratifed to observe, however
that you make the occasion of our arrest do
duty as reminder to the community of the
absolute necessity of free swimming place
for the poor who cannot afford time and
money to go to the lakes, which are there
fore, of no practical utility to them. There
are hundreds of boys, youths and young
men in this city whose almost only Oppor.

recreation is that which the river affords

and decorum, deprive them of that priv

be brought to respect laws which they feel to
be unjust ana oppressive, and if they are
driven from their favorite haunt at the foot
of Broadway, they will wander to more out

: A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE.
George Nelson's Wife, Supposed to
Be Dead, Suddenly Reappears in
life

George Nelson's Wife, Supposed to
Be Dead, Suddenly Reappears in
Life.
George Nelson, agent for the Decatur
Fruit Tree company, residing at $40 La
fond street, had an experience yester-
day that almost resulted i'll his death.
A week ago Mrs. Ellen Nelson, his
wife, went to Omaha on visit to his
relatives there. She expected to be alb
sent about three weeks. On Wednes-
day morning a telegram was handed to
Mr.. Nelson when he sat at breakfast 1t
read:
George Nelson st. Paul: Ellen died sud
denly, at o'clock, of heart disease.
Ii. A. JASPER.
Mr.. Jasper is Mrs. Nelson's father,
and, as his wife is sufferer from heart
disease, Mr.. Nelson did not think of
questioning the truth of the dispatch.
The news affected him terribly. Mr..
Nelson: senior. father of the supposedly
bereavtd husband, wired Instructions
to ship the remains to ST. Paul at once.
Then the blinds were pulled down,
Grape rosette was placed on the door,
and the Nelson mansion was in mourn
ing.
Thursday evening at Z; 80 the Nelson's,
uOliieI. ldLuef anu SON, were. Ieaftully
discussing the virtues of the departed
in the front parlor of the residence,
when a familiar step and familiar
voice on the Stoop outside froze the very
marrow III their veins. The blinds
were down, and no one dared pull
them aside to look out. Then, as
three pairs of eyes were riveted
on the door, it opened. and
Mrs. Nelson in life, with a new summer
bonnet Oh her head and the bloom of
health on her face, appeared to them.
Mr.. Nelson jumped forward to demon
strate the reality of the appearance, but
was so overcome that he fell forward on
his face. and was picked up insensible.
He has since been IN nigh fever. and
his condition yesterday morning was
considered dangerous.
The only explanation that can be Of
fered for the sending of the dispatch is
thatflt was done by some malicious per-
son who had a grudge against the Nell
sons; Mrs. Nelson started home at once
on receiving the telegram asking that
her remains be forwarded. She says
she didn't know what to make of the
AFFAIR. From her manner however, it
is to be inferred that she knows who is
responsible for the outrage At 10
O'Clock last night Mr.. Nelson's condI-
ton was much improved

HEBRA1C CONFIRMATION.
A Glass of Six Admitted With Ap-
propiate Ceremonies.

propiate Ceremonies.
The Temple of Mount Zion at Tenth
and Minnesota streets was the scene
yesterday morning of very pretty and
impressive ceremony-the confirmation
of class of six. About 800 of the fash
ionable Hebrews of st. Paul attended
the ceremony. The temple was beau
tifully dressed with flowers, the chan
eel being lined with palms and fuchsias,
the same appe airing in the choir loft,
while the reading desk was dressed with
violets. Rabbi E. l.. Hess conducted
the rites, assisted by President Haas
and Vice President Fantle, of the Mount
Zion congregation. The services were
literally interSperSed with vocal music,
beautifully rendered by the quartette
choir to an organ accompaniment by
Prof. Wheaton.
The Pentecost services-the harvest
festiyal-have just been completed, and
the confirmation rites, following with
all the ceremonial Of the Judaic church,
were very impressive. At the proper
moment the curtains encircling the
crypt we're drawn and the assistants
brought out the ancient scrolls upon
which, with metallic pointer, resem-
bling a dagger, first Hugo Mock and
then Sadie Sternberg. of the class, read
the confession of faith. Rabbi Hess de-
livered an address to the candidates.
drawing from an ancient Hebraic legend
that when Israel received the law of
God from Mount Sinai, be gave, as
pledge that the law would be kept, the
children of the race. Upon this the
rabbi pointed a pretty moral. The
class then ranged itself in the chancel
and answered the seventY-two questions
of the catechism. Each member re-
cited an original prayer, and the cere-
mony ended with the bestowal of diplo-
mas. The class consists Of
Hugo Mock, Gertrude Strauss
Sadie Sternberg. Lilly Lowenstein,
Henrietta Rocashine. Lena Kaftky.
The girls were clad in soft white, with
their hair tied with ribbons, and all
wore flowers. The congregation was
richly dressed, and flowers were very
abundant.

of fatality. There is safety in numbers as
many an incident of last SUMMER went to
prove. More than one small kid would
have lost his life but for the strong arm of a
senior or the joint efforts of the many. Bath
ing from boats is undoubtedly full of risk
and nearly all the cases of drowning, OF
which have known the circumstances dur
ing the last two or three years. have resulted
from this cause; yet there is no doubt many
viii resort to this practice rather than forego
the pleasure of bathing
- Il am quite at home on this subject having
been an almost daily bather in the river for
Pie last four summers, and cannot express
the extreme reluctance with which we prom
sed Judge Twohy not to gain battle in the
prescribed limit. Up to the present time we
have not been molested by the police. and it
Is with bitter regret we learn the intention of
the city authorities to be rigid in the observ-
ance of the ordinance. The usual run of
people do not realize what a boon the river is
10 the poor boys and street Arabs who swarm
s9uFstreets during vacation.
: In consideration of my long connection
with scores OF all classes who delight in a
swim i'll the river, and as much in my own
Interests as theirs, intend TO try TO get up q
PETITION to the powers that be to do some
thing for us. l shall be glad of any help you
can 1;tfford me-. The newsboys and shine
em-Gps alone will be power in getting sig
natures, and many whose parents forbid
them to battle in the river would join in the
crusade for their own sakes as, with recog-
nized safe bathing pool the parents fears
would cease to exist
altogether we have agreed that. to ask US
to give up our swimming and bathing is as
cruel as it is unreasonable; boys having a
natural God given longing for that sort of
thing, and conclude to press our claims upon
the community. for poor boys must have a
free swim somehow
The letter speaks for itself. Senator
Brennan secured the passage of bill
through the late legislature authorizing
the city to issue bonds to erect public
swimming bath, and if anything is to be
done in the matter the sooner action is
taken the better. Here is a suggestion:
The ladies have failed to close the Sun
day theater; let us see what they can do
