Towa's thirteen eleemosynary, penal
and reformatory institutions cost the
State $1,146, 1891 from June 30, 1919,
to June 80, 1900 These figures are given
out by the State Treasurer. The Gov
ernor and State Auditor have recently
completed checking over the institution
accounts in the treasurer's office md
these figures are the result. Under the
new board of control law the state
Treasurer was made the treasurer OF oil
the institutions under the board of con-
troll, thus doing away with the individual
treasurer which had been the rule before.
Now all institution checks are drawn by
the State Treasurer upon authority Oh
the boarl of control, and separate sys-
tenn of accounts for the institution is
kept by the treasurer.
Shortly after the board of control law
went into effect the executive council
granted request of the treasurer that
his institution accounts be checked over
regularly by the Governor and Auditor.
Accordingly this is done under resolution
OF the council and not statutory provis-
ion. There were four settlements Of this
kind during the first year Of the new law,
but the latest one made covers the period
Of one year. The figures for the different
institutions us shown by the Governors

A Lost CITY.

An entire town has recently been dis
covered in the dominions of the Car,
of the existence of which no one seems
to have had any idea. Deep in the
forests Of the Ural lies tiourishing
city, the inhabitants of which speak a
curious language of their own, and
seem to form sort of ideal common
wealth, in which taxes and taxgather-
ers, among other troublesome things,
are unheard Of. There are people liv-

Electric Welding.

The doom Of the rivet in iron work is

is superseding 1t. Elihu Thompson, of
Lynn, Mass, the pioneer Of electric
welding, has found new and startling

The Delaware & Raritan Canal Com

ent tasks, the Society for the Proven

tempted to relax its vigilance.

Body Found by Hunters.

Hunters in the woods two miles from

about the remains from which the iden-

More than $500 was distributed by
Paderewski among the walters Of the
