CHARITY SUPERVISION.
The Question Considered by New
.. York Joint Committee.

The joint committee on charities and
state prisons gave hearing in Albany, "
T., Wednesday on questions relating to edu-
cational work In the institutions Of the
state and in charitable institutions Mr.
Roche said the amendment favored by the
committee last week, and which provided
for Withholding funds from all schools of
sectarian character. was right in it's aim
but 1t would cut of the appropriations now
made to orphan asylums kept by the
churches. but drawing some aid from the
state. The committee promised to remove
such an effect.
Homer Folks. secretary of the State
Charities Aid Association spoke for an
amendment prepared by Charles Fairchild
providing for creating a state board of
charities. state board of lunacy, and
state board of prisons. Mr.. Folks said the
proposed amendment creates a state COM
mission OF prisons. over all penal institu-
0cns except reformatories. The number of
inmates of institutions which would be sub
5ect to the supervision of such a commits
sion of prisons would be about 10000.
The state commission in lunacy is given
supervision over all institutions. public and
private, for the care of the insane. These
include at present nine state hospitals six
county aSyiums. and seventeen private
asylums. containing January /, 1884, a total
OF IS 1jI inmates.
The proposed amendment places under
the supervision of the state board of
charities twenty-three institutions main
tained by the state. The total populat ton
or these institutions last October was g.
1874. There would also be under its SUPER
vision a large number of charitable and
benevolent societies not included in this
number.
There is decided difference Of opinion
rs TO which is more effective as a super
visory body-a paid board or an unpaid
board The amendment does not prescribe
either form of organization for any of the
three boards We believe that that should
be left wholly to the legislature, to be ad-
1usted as the Logic OF events may prove
wise. For the present both boards would
remain as now constituted. The commits
sion OF prisons can be organized by the
legislature. either as a paid or unpaid
body.
DIR. Mcdonald. for the state board of lun-
ocy. advocated the amendment, but wanted
1t understood that it did not emanate from
their commission.
Secretary Sage Of the prisons department
opposed the creation of a prison commits

The klahOma War Ended.

Governor Renfrow left Guthrie, o. r., yes
terday, leaving Secretary Lowe acting gov
ernor. Lowe at once wired the War Depart
ment. requesting that the soldiers be with
drawn from Enid and Pond Creek, as they
were no longer needed. The territorial ad-
ministration has prevailed upon the Rock
Island Railroad Company to erect depots
so the trouble can practically be said to be
ended.
The railroad company persistently refus-
ed, desiring to force the people to remove to
q town site established by the company, so
that they will be compelled to buy land from
it. The people failed to secure action by
Congress, and the Oklahoma supreme court
decided against them. Two weeks ago an
active war was begun by the people who
declared that if-there were no stations there
should be no railroad. Bridges We're de-
stroyed and every device reSorted to to an

A PRINCELY GAMBLER.
Piles Up His Markers So High the
Dealers Make q Limit.

A special dispatch to the Philadelphia
Press from Saratoga on Wednesday states:
Prince Hatzfeldt, c. p. Huntingtons SON.
in-law. gave the players and dealers at the
Saratoga Club half hour of fine sport
early this morning. 1t is said that the
managers of the club became alarmed at
the facility with which the prince would
pile up markers and that they finally
fixed his limit at $4,000.
At 80 last night the prince left the
Grand Union. where his family are stop
ping and where his meals are privately
served in his suite of apartments, and
walked over to the club. He was soon play
Ing roulette after a fashion that made the
eyes of the crowd hang out. The prince
made no bet less than $IUO and his usual bet
was $1,000. 1t doesn't take long to win or
lose at roulette with 81 900 bet on every
roll of the ball
In a few minutes the prince was ST.
90 winner. Luck turned and the great
stack of chips before the prince began to
melt away.
When all had disappeared but $500 the
prince prudently stopped playing and told
the man at the wheel to put them down to
his credit. Then he left the club saying he
was going to retire.
He began to celebrate his victory instead
and returned in an hour eager and conf
dent 1t was not long before he had lost
not only his $500 winnings but had reach
ed his $4,000 limit besides. Then he asked
fer an additional 81 600 and the man behind
the wheel gave it to him.
The proprietor of the club. Garfield, was
Informed of the breach of his rule and
promptly told the prince he would have to
stop playing.
Il shall continue playing" cried the
prince, eXcitedly.
ION what?" said Garfield, quietly
ION the honor of a hatfield" exclaimed
the prince. proudly and striking his breast
Not on your life" replied Garfield.
Then the prince became frantic with rage
with sudden movement he put his hands
under the table and hurled ii over into the
middle of the ROOM The roulette wheel was
broken.
A crowd of attendants surrounded the
prince, but ii was a long time before he
