by the Boston Dental Company at Al East

a character that she lost all OF the teeth, but the
Boston Dental Company refused to refund the
money she had paid.
In sentencing Diaz, presiding Judge Jacob
said:
we believe that the dental law has clearly

OF the public, and we are glad to uphold 1t.

Right In the ~. s7c Acres He Transferred.
ALBANY. Oct. 6.-State Comptroller James A.
Roberts has concluded not TO pay the purchase
price for the Durant lands recently secured for
tho State by the Forest Preserve Board. These
lands embraced 23,s72 acres, and the purchase
were purchased from the Forest Park Land
Company. who bought the lands from Arpad G.
Gerster and wife, to whom they had been trans
ferred by William West Durant. The latter is
a large stockholder in the Forest Park and Land
Company. In 1895. owing 10 family troubles,
Mr.. and Mrs. Durant took a trip to California.
Before going Mrs. Durant gave her husband n

husbands property for n cash ConsIdera ion or
$4,000. shortly after their return from Cal

against his wife.
When it became known that the Forest Pre-
serve Board was to purchase the Durant lands

power OF attorney given her husband did not
embrace a surrender OF her dover right in the
lands. nor give him the authority to pass the
title, but was given merely to protect her inter.
ests in the property. Mr.. Durants counsel
com this view and held that Mr.. Durant's
transfer Of the land was entirely legal and valid.
To-day Comptroller Roberts was served with
u notice stating that n suit is pending in the
Supreme Court. brought by Jeanette l.. Durant
against Arpad q. Gerster and wife, WillisuW West

SUPP. PIERCE vINDICArRD.
No Cruelty at the westchcster Home for In.
dIEcnt Children,

WHITE PLAINS, v. Y, Oct. 6.--The decision OF
Referee Daniel Guernsey in tho Investigation
OF the wcstchcstor Temporary Home for In.
digcnt Children and its Superintendent. James
W. Pierce, was filed in tho County Clerks office
to-day. The case has been before cx-Judge
Guernsey for nearly two years. Superintendent
Pierce was charged with cruelty. The case of
Thcrcse Sec, n l6.ycarold inmate, first brought
the matter to public notice. Tho See girl os.
capped from the home and sought refuge in a
nearby house, where, It was alleged, she showed
bruises and cuts, said to have been inflicted by
Superintendent Pierce. In the hearing ll5 wit
nesses were examined.
In his report Referee Guernsey says that his
personal inspection and his hearing of the evil
dencc convince him that the food and clothing
OF tho inmates have always been good. There
have been but sixteen deaths in fifteen years out
of / 800 inmates received. though two epidemics
of scarlet foyer have occurred. There were pun
ishments for infractions OF tho rules. such MS arc
ordinarily In use In homes and schools. Tho So
called :" cat consisted of n drum stick 10 inches
long with five lashcs which weighed ivccighths
o. an ounce; NO RernhHhenn injury ever resulted
disappeared in a short time. In the Theresa Sec
case the punishment inflicted is found to have
In discussing tho Walter Mallory case Referee
Guernsey says: Il find that the special instance
against Walter Mallory is untrue"
Referee Guernsey finds that the punishment
Of several older inmates was severe in several
instances, the repeated offences and gravity OF
some OF them justifyinR this. however. The
compelling OF girls to undress and place them
selves in bed with only n sheet over them 10 re-
ceive .whippings. is condemned. This practice
was discontinued two years before the investi-
cation began. Close clipping Of hair is con-
dcmned, because 1t degradcs tho female inmate
so treated and no amount of good behavior
could remedy Ii.
The use OF chains is condemned. although It is
found that no effort was made to hide the practice
and no malice was exercised. All corporal pun
ishment has been discontinu d, owing to the
order of the State Board OF Charities.
In conclusion the referee finds tho superin-
tendent and managers of the home to have been
in all respects honest and intelligent. al.
though in enforcing discipline methods Of pun
ishment nave been adopted that the parent. II the
question were raised, would not allow. yet tho
mistake. IL mistake 1t was. was made with tho
full belief that 1t was for the good Of the offender
and the best interests OF all the inmates of the
institution. Such punishments were not in
f,icted in passion nor was partially shown"
1T Is my opinion saws the referee. " that
