dramatic grandeur. Probably popular

7HB COUNTY'S POOR
THE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD NET YES
TERDAY and MADE AN ESTIMATE.
The Total Cost Last Year Was Over $4,000, o
Which bat $1,000 Went To the Infrm-
ary-A Disposition To Cut
Down the Outlay.

Yesterday the Committee on Poor
House and Farm of the Board OF Com
missioners spent a couple of hours in
going over the affairs of the County In
Urinary, preliminary 10 making up
their annual estimate. Last year the
charges incidental to supporting the
poor and INDECENT Of the county ag-
gregated $4,000. or about one-ffth OF
the total income of the county. OF this
sum over SIC, 900 was spent by the Com
missioners in their capacity Of Over
seers OF the Poor, while but $1,000 was
spent in the maintenance OF the Poor
House and Farm, with its stan OF
officials and its seventy or eighty In
mates.
There is growing belief on the part
of the Commissioners that too much
money is spent in the shape OF poor
fund orders for the benefit OF persons
not inmates of the Inirmary, and 1t is
thought that sum much less than
three hundred and odd dollars a week
would furnish the necessities OF life to
all who have just claims upon the pub
lie treasury, outside the limits OF the
Infirmary.
Speaking OF this matter yesterday
member OF the Board said:
Il find no fault with the County In
Urinary. 1t is a good and necessary In
stitution, and has been well managed
for years past, out there can be no
doubt but that the system Of giving
county orders out Unfortunately Is
fearfully abused in this county. The
sum thus bestowed is nearly $50 per day
for every day in the year, over
and above the cost Of the Intirmary.
II it was actual charity, l would be the
last 10 complain, but in very many
cases it is not deserving. 1t is time
halt was called In this county in this
matter. The cost Of the lniirmary
last year was but $1,000, or but p
cents per day per inmate, counting
in all salaries and every expense of
whatever nature. This is figured on an
average Of seventy inmates. l believe
the actual average would be seventy
five. The institution is model OF its
kind, ana will be kept up to that
standard. The imposition upon the
taxpayers is in the county poor fund,
and the matter deserves serious atten-
ton"
At yesterdays session of the Commit
tee the expenses of the Infrmary for
1898. including several improvements,
was estimated at 81, 500, and report TO,
that effect will be made to the session OF
the Board 10 be held to-day. Among
the additions contemplated lisa building
for the shelter OF tranSents during cold
or Indictment weathar. There are often
wayfarers-m many of them i'll and old
who apply for lodging at the lntrmary.
They are always dirty and ragged, and
it is not desirable TO turn them into the
regular building, and scarcely humane
TO refuse them shelter. The Committee
will recommend small building for the
shelter of such persons, and one OF the
toll houses now owned by the county
will probably be moved out to the farm
for that purpose.

der the supervision of Messrs. Happy,

attended to those present, while
Mr.. Reymann, Sr., beamed on the
scene from his chair with the members
of the orchestra. Ex-Mayor Seabright
made neat address during the even
ing, TO which Mr.. Reymann happily re-
sponded, aud then there was solo and
chorus singing, and fine musical pro-
gramme.
The occasion was most pleasant
throughout.

TOOK 10 THE HILLS.

Mike Martin Escapes From Constable
Bennett in BenwOod.
At the hearing of Mike Martin, the
man who was arrested for stealing a
watch from the captain Of the steamer
Courier, the fact was developed that the
theft was committed while the boat was
coming up the river, past some point in
Marshall county Yesterday the proper
papers were made out, and Constable
Bennett took charge Of the prisoner, to
turn him over TO the Marshall county
authorities. Be was securely hand
cuffed. and taken to Benwood yesterday
morning.
In Squire Henry Riddles Office the
constable released the prisoner, while
the Justice went out to hunt up Con-
stable Sprout. Martin suddenly made
dash for liberty, and succeeded in reach
ing the door, with Constable Bennett
hanging to his coat tail. He succeeded
in freeing himself, and then led the Of
ficer pretty chase over the back fence
and across the i. & O. tracks.
Mr.. Bennett called to several persons
to stop the man, but they either did not
hear him or valued their personal safety
too highly. After crossing the railroad
Martin took to the hillside, while
his purSuer followed the county road in
a vain effort TO head him off. Several
parties of boys and young men joined
i'm the chase, but Martin was too fleet
footed. The ConStable's wind gave
out when he reached McMechen, and
he reluctantly returned without his
man, after chasing him fully two miles.
The spectacle of man running at the
top of his speed, with hatless officer
in hot pursuit, attracted a great deal OF
attention and there was no little excite
ment over the affair.
Constable Sprouts later started after
Martin but could find no trace Of him.
When last seen he was walking over the
hill in the direction of Sherrard.
