MET WITH THE GOVERNOR.
Conference Yesterday of the state
Board of Charities.

At their quarterly meeting yesterday aft
ernoon the members of the State Board of
Charities had conference with Governor
Mount. The meeting was star chamber
session." and the door between the room
in which the board met and the general
parlor was kept closed. There is nothing to
indicate that the board on its recent trips
through the institutions found much that
was displeasing. A better quality of food
is being supplied to the convicts at Michi-
gan City, and several good reforms have
been made. Warden Harley has been asked
by the board not to allow excursionists to
inspect the convicts as If they were animals
in cages at a menagerie. The board is
pleased with the present condition of the
Jeffersonvile Reformatory The members
report Improvement in the conduct of the
Michigan City Prison, and say there is room
for more.
1t is claimed the bad condition of the
Knox county Jail has not been changed.
Women and men are confined together. For
several years the commissioners of Knox
county have been asked to remedy matters
at the jail, but apparently, the requests
have not been needed.

Back from Chickamauga.

State Quartermaster General Richardson

Three months of camp life has made the
scenery monotonous to the boys, and they
yearn for change. was surprised at the
proficiency in drill which the regiments at
Chickamauga have acquired. The boys have
worked hard and conscientiousy on the drill
field. The soldiers at Chickamauga alone
soldiers did not pay the attention to per-
fecting themselves in military evolutions
that the soldiers at Chickamauga have. In
this the boys at Chickamauga are superior

Several railroads made pleas before the
State Board Of Tax Commissioners yester-

Indiana. Their arguments were to the effect
that the State has no right to assess taxes

State Convention ExpIains II.

The fact of the coming of the state Re-
publican convention explains the following,
overheard at the Statehouse yesterday dur
ing conversation a man had over long
distance telephone line:
Say, think 1 ought to have about twen-
ty-tive votes out of the forty of that dele
CATION.
We'll, that's what think Would it do
any good for me to make the trip down
there?'
What's the matter with this line
Sounds like it has a rolling mill on it,
1.-The thing that worries me is that ex-
sheriff. Does he cut much ice? 1 hear he's
got knife up his sleeve for me-
Il say l hear he's got his razor out for
me-
well, all right, judge; but, as / say, I
think ought to have twenty-five votes out
of the forty"

Major Peterson has been driven from
home. When the heaviest of yesterdays
storm struck the Fine Arts Hall at Camp
Mount it forced its way through the crew
ices of the roof and in a short time had
deluged the majors sleeping apartment. The
officers of the commissary department no.
ticed the leak in time to save his personal
effects from harm, but nearly all the sup
ply of government papers were destroyed.
After the room had been bailed out the
major decided to remain on the safe side
and stay for the present in the south side
of the building. Luckily none of the camp
supplies were on the side of the building
that let in the water, except the tents,
which were all more or less dampened. AS
consequence, the regiment must set up the
tents to-day, for unless they are dried in
the air they will be spoiled by mildew. Ev-
erything at headquarters seemed to be
water-tight and except for an extra supply
of mud tracked in by the soldiers there
were no indications of the heavy rain.

County Clerk FesIer Finds bad News

I'm a Newspaper Paragraph.
The face of County Clerk Fesler was
dark with gloom yesterday afternoon when
he read a newspaper paragraph concerning
the dynamite cruiser Buffalo, which is now
laid up in the Brooklyn navy yard. 1t
was on board the Buffalo that Mr.. Fesler
expected to take service as a cadet, hav-
ing recently been appraised of his appoint
ment.
1t was understood that Mr.. Fesler would
go with Captain Hemphill on the Buffalo
and the fact that the boat was to carry
material Of a highly explosive character
made the contemplated cruise all the more
interesting 70 the county clerk. The para
graph which shattered his hopes read: THE
Buffalo, which has been the subject of a
good deal Of comment, has been placed out
of commission, and she will not be likely
to get to sea again for long time. as she
is TO be entirely remodeled and refitted.
This vessel, from which so much was ex-
pected is now generally regarded as a
white elephant on the hands Of the Navy
Department, and it will be an expensive
job to get her into condition where she
can be Of any service TO the government.

THE CARE OF INFANTS.
State Board of Health Will Make
Some recommendation.

Each month on receipt of the birth returns
the State Board of Health will send to the
parents named in the returns a pamphlet
entitled Recommendations in Regard to
the Care of Infants" The subdivisions of
the pamphlet are Cleanliness of the In
FAINT" Cleanliness of the Premises"
..Fresh Air" Clothing" Sleep" .Nurs-
ing" Food" Summer Complaint" Child
hood Dreams How TO Sterilize Mix
How to Prepare Boiled Water" Infant
Mortality" Under the last head the
pamphlet says: 1T is startling fact that
out Of one hundred live-born children about
twenty-five die before the end of the first
year Of life and from forty to fifty before
reaching the close of the fifth year. Such
undue mortality OF early life is a hideous
comment on civilization. Some of these
deaths are because OF unfitness to survive.
but the majority are caused by ignorance
and neglect"

BASEBALL DEAL REPORTED.
President Of the ST. Louis Browns
Said to be Dickering with Mr.. Brush.

1t was currently reported in this city last
night that President Muckenfuss, of the
St. Louis Browns, was in consultation with
John T. Brush concerning a sale of that
team. The Indianapolis magnate was not
in the city, however, and Muckenfuss could
not be found. 1t is probable, from the fact
that Mr. Brush was said to be travelling
somewhere in the State that the two men
met in some town where neither one is
known to talk over the sale. A meeting be-
tween the two in this city would give the
matter a publicity which might not be de-
sirable at this stage of the negotiations.
