THE TNDERGROC "CELL' At ELuTRl

Flmira y y Feb. 1.-The alleged underground
dungeon at the Reformatory figured prominently in
the proceedings at the Investigation into the man
agement of the institution today. Witnesses for
the prosecution had told OF dark damp cell be-
meath the foundations of the prison. No one had
been found who could testify to being locked in the
cell but the prosecution asserted that 1t en-
ploved by Superintendent Brockway for the
nnement of bad boys. The defence denied the ex-
stence of underground cell in the entire nstitu-
fiou Their Witnesses admitted that there Is an old
coal hole about ten feet below ground and between
the foundation walls. which has grated iron door
and bears some resemblance TO Il cell The defence
said that this formerly passagcway, and
was closed by the erection OF new building.
The iron door. they said. was put there to prevent
IN. escape Of inmates. All OF the Keepers who tes-
titled the defence swore that inmates were never
locked In the place, and there were no iron rings
or bars there to which they were chained. In order
to clear up the mystery of the alleged cell, Secre-
tary Tanning, OF the committee. and Mr. White. OF
the prosecution. visited the place this morning.
They found the room practically as described by
the defence. IL adloned the coal hole, ana had TWO
small grated windows that may have served AS
coal chutes. There were indications OF the place
having been used for the confinement of prisoners.
but they were not convinced that II was not con
striiciad for that purpose.

NEW PUBLICATIONS.
A WORK FOR ANGLERS.

THE FISHES OF NORTH AMERICA THAT At
ARE CAUGHT on HOOK AND LINE. -, By
William G. Harris. Illustrated: Parts l. H. H.
Harris Publishing Company. New-forK'
The plan OF this work is such that If successfully
carried out 1t Will be an important one TO those IN
terested In fishing by hand in any OF It's Drahches
The form is large folio, so tina. the compe'e' 'N'
will contain a notable amount of matter There are
to be forty monthly parts in all. each containing
besides the letter press two large-slzed twelve by
eighteen inches) faithful photographic reproduc-
tons In color of portraits OF fish. painted lii OH
from the living creatures. or from specimens freshiy
caught By the aut; or To insure faithful portrait
ure the painter accom- panied Mr.. Harris on his an
Cling excursions and made the pictures on the spot
using many specimens as necessary t. insure
specific likeness.
The author states his aim to be to make "a popu-
lar textbook and kindergarten study for the an
gler' accomplishing this end not only by the por-
traits but by full biological notes all the fishes
that objects OF pursuit by the angler in
American waters" In the numbers before us
these comments begun, their place be-
ing taken by PREDATORY matter. viz: gen
eral Introduction introduction to the Study or
Ichthyology" and remarks on THE Classification Of
Fishes" both adequate to the scope Of the work;
ju1ciously brief chapter on THE Distribution OF
Fishes" and another equally good the qualities
Of Angler. HIS Tackle and Outfit" Mr.. Harris
has had unusual opportunities as editor of THE
American Angler" well travelled angler. TO
collect the Information which should make the more
specific parts Of the work Of sound value
The portraits accompanying the first three parts
are: The Rocky Mountain trout. the rainbow trout
hybrid trout. the pike. the unspotted muscalongc
of Wisconsin. and the yellow perch.
Any one familiar with the subject Is aware of the
extreme difficulty Of properly representing fish,
If color be not attempted. The firm supploness
the rounded forms. with the sharp definitions which
prevent all 'pudgness" the coloration Of the skin
enlivenel by the scaly layer with enamel. and
the glnts on the scales themselves make a problem
for the ccvcrest painter Of still life. TO pre-
all these things and keep anatomical accuracy
is out Of the question I'm a work like this But II
mlplike accuracy OF contour and Of colOration be
obtained the plates Will be most useful for identh-
cation Of species. if in artistic merit and in
lfelkeness OF appearance they have something to
be desired

the scheme the people. He offers them an ex-
cellent chance to secure rapid transit, and 1t
remains with them to make choice
