A FEARFUL REVELATION,
Barbarous Treatment OF Inmates of an
English Ponrhouse.


English Poorhouse,
LONDON, April 2s.-Lord Courtenay.
special government inspector, and
who for two weeks has been sitting as
a special commission, today concluded
M inquiry into the management of
the poor house at Newton Abbott"
which ohas developed condition
of affairs unparalleled in the history of
the poor house system of this country.
One hundred and fifty witnesses We're
examined and some of the corrobora-
tive testimony would have reflected
upon country inhabited by saw.
ages. 1t was shown that what
are known as straight jackets
were in constant use in the poorhouse..
and that aged inmates of both sexes
had been placed in them naked, and
then tied TO the iron of the bedstead.
One woman, so years of age. died five
days after being confined In this man
ner, and was actually tied down until
within an hour Of her death. A per-
sonal investigation of the in
stitution by Lord Courtenay
brought TO light some frightful
facts. A woman was found encrusted
with dirt and covered with vermin.
Her hair had been shaved close to her
head, and her finger and toe nails were
like claws, averaging three inches in
length. Another woman who was par
alyzed had her finger nails SO long that
they had made wounds in her flesh. In
the shed III the poor house yard was
found an insane woman crouched in
the corner, her face badly bruised and
her body almost devoid of clothing. 1t
was testified that almost daily she
was pclted with stones, and in
winter time with snow balls by the in
mates in the boys department, the SUI
perintendents son being tho ring
leader. Some of the boys on being ex.
amined said they pelted the poor un-
fortunate 10 hear her swear. 1t was
also shown that the inmates of the in.
sane department indnlged in daily
! fights, and proof was also offered that
immortality was rife in the institution.
Lord Courtenay will submit his report
to the local government board on Mon
day.

a RANK PLAGIARiST.
The Charge Brought Against John Jacob
AstOr,

The Charge brought Against John JacoD
Astor,
New YORK, April 26-Along with
the joys of authorship John Jacob
Astor must bear the regulation bur-
dens of literary fame and success. He
is charged already with rank plagiar-
ism. 1t is "a notorious fact that from
Shakespeare's plays to Mark Twain's
jumping frog there is nothing new
under the sun, but as Mr.. Astor has
gone far beyond and above the sun in
his book, it might be supposed that his
effort had at least novelty.
Not SO, however. There is a very
close resemblance between Mr.. Astor's
book, "a Journey in Other Worlds" I"
the critics of the author say, and n book
called Across the Zodiac" by w.
Gregg, which appeared in ls0? This
was a story of trip to Mars with tho
mysterious "Apergy," of which Mr..
Astor speaks as if he were the origina-
tor of the idea, rs the motive power.
Others go still further back and find
the original apergy in reports of Prof
John Fiskes lectures at Harvard in
1869 and 1870 Yet Mr.. Astor displays
a certain originality where he makes
apergy responsible for Christ's walk
upon the water AMI for Eliiah's flight
to heaven in the chariot of fire.
