AN UNNATURALLOYE
The Cause of the Female Re-
fOrmatOry Fire.
MINNIE JOHNSON, 1NcEND1ARY.
The Deed Committed Because She Was
Separated From a Negro Girl Lover

She Confessed Her Guilt-A Remarkable
State of Afairs Existed in the Institu-
tutien-There Was Not Less Than
Twenty Cases Similar TO Hsrs-AIways
Negro and white Girl-Ths vice
Has Existed for over Twenty Years.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, March 21.-Tho
story of the origin of the fire that de-
stroyed the Female Reformatory on the
night Of March has just come to light,
and reveals remarkable phase of de-
pravity that has existed among the in
mates for 20 years.
Little Anna Tapp, a child of Q years,
who had been under the care OF the in
stitution, died yesterday morning as a
result of the exposure on the night of the
fire. Mrs. Elmira Johnson, the assist
ant superintendent now in charge Of the
detachment Of prisoners housed at the
work rkhouse, made this death the occasion
of talk to the assembled girls. She
said she had reason to know that one of
the girls had set fire to the institution,
and this girl had not only that crime
but also the death of little Annie Tapp
on her head.
Most of the inmates burst into tears,
| for the child had won the hearts of even
| the criminal women in the prison A
| little later Minnie johnson, one of the
| three girls who had been suspected of
starting the fire, sent for Mrs Johnson.
The latter went to her cell and she there e
| confessed that she had set fire to the
| building.
Minnie Johnson is rather pretty girl
of II, who was sent up from Richmond
two years ago on conviction of theft.
She had been working in the laundry on
the day of the fire and had fingered be-
hind the rest. When they were gone she
ignited an ironing cloth at gas jet and
| threw it upon a shelf under a stairway.
From this started the fire that wrecked
| the building.
In her confession the johnson girl said
| that she had not intended to fire this
building, but simply to create q scare to
get even because Patsy Williams, a col
ored girl, had been separated from her.
An intimacy of long standing and OF re-
voting nature had existed between these
two girls. 1t had been detected through
endearing and disgusting notes between
them that had been intercepted, and the
officials of the prison had made every
effort to break it up without success,
| unull Jhey nnally removed the negro girl
from the prison.
This confession gave rise, of course, tc
further inquiries by reporters, and elic-
tied the information that there are nc
less than twenty such cases of unnatural
love among the female prisoners, and
what is most remarkable, each case is q
mixture of the races. 1t is always q
negro and white girl, never two of the
same race. The officials have made every
effort to break it up but the inmates
resort to all sorts of schemes to NEE
each other and be together.
The vice has existed for over twenty
years, and all efforts to stop it hav'
proved unsuccessful. The board Of man
ayers is thinking Of erecting separat'
buildings for white and colored inmates

DEATH OF A GIRL LEPER.
Both of Her Eyes Had Been Eaten Away
and shs Died in Great Agony.

Both of Her Eyes Had Been Eaten Away
and shs Died in Great Agony.
NEW ORLEANS, March 81 - New Or
leans has novelty in the shape Of q hos
pital for lepers, which until Saturday
contained four inmates. 1t is situated
on Hagen avenue near Gravier, in an
isolated portion Of the city, and the lsp-
ers are treated there. Treatment plays
small part in the matter, though, as
the disease is incurable, and the hospi-
tai is designed simply to prevent lepers
from mingling with the rest Of human
kind
About a month ago a young white
girl, Miss Naomi Ribbi, came to the hos
pital from Iberville Parish She be-
longed to one OF the Creole families in
that section of the State, and was only
90 years old Iberville is the home of q
