SCHOOLBOYS IN CHAINS.
Surprising Facts Brought Out by a
Massachusetts Legislative Inquiry.

Boston, March THE legislative
committee on education this morning
continued the hearing on the measure
reported by the state board of educa-
ton, and prepared by George A. Walton
and Charles W. BortWeu relative to
school attendance and truancy. Some
remarkable facts came out.
At Mr.. BortwelPs request Agent Wal
ton told of visit to the Essex county
truant school.
Mr.. Walton said he had seen one boy
with a horse weight and chain tied to
his feet and hands. Two other boys
confined in a small cellar were chained
together with a long chain. The su-
perintendent of the school did not act
as if it was any unusual thing to have
his boys chained together in this way.
The boys were ignorant, too, not know
ing what simple words meant.
Mr.. BOrtwell told of the other county
truant schools of the state where sim
liar abuses were existent. Many of the
schools had lamentably poor sanitary
accommodations.
In the Hampden county school was
a sort of a pen, or inclOsure, where the
boys were allowed to play.
At the school at Beckett, in Berkshire
county, Mr.. BOrtWeu said he found
hanging in the school room a raw hide,
a ball and a chain, and handouts. These
superintendent said that when he came
there he found a boy walking about
the yard with a ball and chain on his
feet.
The superintendent of these schools
We're allowed to run the truant schools

TAMMANY TROUBLE BREWS
Boss Croker and Mayor Van Wyck
Said to Have Quarreled.

New York, March THAT serious trou-
bic is brewing in Tammany hall now
seems certain The friction between
Croker and Hugh Mclaughlin, the Brook
between Croker and his man Van Wyck.
This morning a paper printed a story of
open quarrel between the two in the
rooms of the Democratic club. The
story, and that he would not talk about
that or anything else for publication. He
recalled the announcement he made in the
early DAYS of his administration that he
would not be interviewed on any subject.
Tammany politicians were much interest
ed in the report, but none Of them would
confirm it. Those who would talk about
the matter at all said they they had not
latiOns between the mayor and Mr.. Gro
ker.
There has been no end of speculation
among politicians ever since Mayer Van
Wyck has been in office as to what he
would do in case his own judgment should
conflict with the policy of Tammany hall
or with sugges lions of Mr.. Croker. In all
board meetings the mayor freely express
ed his views about the conduct OF mun1cl-
pal affairs, and in some cases MS frank
ness and VigOr surprised his friends. He
has far had his own way In all open
meetings.
At meeting of the board of estimate
a few DAYS ago he was indeed Out-VOted
on a motion. but he obtained a recOnsid-
Grafton, after which Corporation Counsel
WhaIen changed his vote and voted with
the MAYOR. On the second vote all the
members of the board appointed to office
bers elected by the people, the comptroller
and the president of the council, voted
against him.
All of Van Wycks appointees know,
their advancement, and to him they must
look in the future.

new YORK'S SHAME.
New Workers Would Blow Up
Their GrandmOthers if
They Made Good Paw
ing Material.

New York. March Indian Head,
the principal prOmOntory in the Pal
isades, was blown up Saturday. Pre-
parations for the event had been going
on for several weeks. The result is
that 100000 tons of rock have been at
last brought down for macadam paving
stone.
The cliff rose 200 feet from the wa
ter'S edge. 1t was practically perpen-
dicular, and there was almost no break
in its smooth surface. The rock was,
however, ramified with tunnels and
shafts, cut in preparation for the days
blasting.
All these shafts and tunnels had been
filled with dynamite to the amount of
1000 pounds.
The Pinch bOrings were filled with
continuous succession of dynamite
sticks, a Illuminating cap was fitted in
to the top stick, and wires were con-
nected from the cap to a battery. When
at 1910 O'Clock all the wires from shafts
and tunnels were brought together in
one circuit the connecting wire was led
out over the top of the cliff. It was
announced that everything was ready
for the explosion The crowds rushed
out of danger, and Miss Alice Haggerty
pushed down the plunger of the friction
machine which was to ignite the
charge. There was a mild roar and a
puff of smoke. but the face of the cliff
was not rent. Investigation showed the
explosion had been a practical failure.
The wires were readjusted, and this
time Hugh Reilly, who had been in
charge of all the preparations for the
blast, worked the plunger himself. it
being believed the first failure was due
to Miss Haggerty's inability to apply
sufficient force. Instantly there was a
trembling of the ground, and a roar
that seemed muff1ed at first then loud,
so that it was heard by persons three
miles away.
The entire face bent out in the middle.

the gauges of Chief Engineer Haws of the
ChilkOot Transportation company, who ar

ways of ChilkOOt were suspended, and ice

three-quarter inch steel cables, which

Engineer Haws says 1900 KlOndikerS

5000 more were similarly stalled on the
Skaguay trail, all waiting for the storms
to abate- just a week ago the fierce north
wind changed into a gentle Chinook from

dixie army began moving forward, and by
this time several thousand should be at

BOYLE'S FATAL AILMENT.
Has Suffered Three Years From 'FMus-
cular Atrophy."

A case which has puzzled some of the
physicians of the city is that of CAT
ferty Boyle, a section foreman who was
taken to the Salvation Army hospital
by order of the county commissioners.
He has been kept at the poor farm for
some time. For the past three years
he has been suffering with what the
doctors call, muscular atrophy." This
is a disease of the spinal cord which af-
fects all the muscles of the body, limit
ing the supply of nourishment to them.
The patient wastes away, suffers con-
siderable pain and finally dies, usually
after three or four years of suffering.
Cafferty Boyle is SO years of age. His
parents live southeast of Topeka about
20 miles. He has been a section fore
man for many years, but three years
ago he was taken i'll with what the
doctors could not diagnosticate. With
but little pain and but slight evidence
of disease, his weight of 2O6 pounds
gradually decreased. For three years
the muscular atrophy' has been in
progress. He now weighs less then $50
pounds. 1t was thought that surgical
operation would relieve him and per-
haps check the disease. Accordingly he
was removed to the hospital. A con-
sultation was held and it was decided
that the chances of checking the dis
ease We're small and that relief could
not be accomplished. Boyle was taken
today to the home of his sister in Oak
land where he will be cared for tenn
porarily. The physicians say that
Boyle can live but a. few months.
