NEEDED REFORM.


Amos w. Butler, secretary of the State
Board of Charities, yesterday sent a paper
to ministers throughout the State con-
tanning suggestions for the observance of
prison Sunday. Oct. 20 The paper states
that in some jails there is no attempt to
separate prisoners. The men congregate
in the corridors and tell of their crimes and
indecent stories. Into such a place is
thrust the old offender and the incorrigible
boy, the hardened criminal and the witness
awaiting trial The tendency Is to draw
the young man and boy downward. The
report further SAYS that the jails are the
schools OF crime. where are masters to teach
those less knowing in such the lessons of
their craft, and these schools the State is
maintaining are expensive ones. What has
been said Is true of the women. the paper
continues. Incorrigible girls and women

LOWRY FINDS
FOR JENKINS
REFEREE ALLOWS HIM A YER.
DICT OF s5,41e.
Decides That He Is Legally Entitled
to His Salary as Delinquent Tax
Collector Because Former City
Treasurer, if Appointed, Never
Qualified for the Office by Filing a
Bond as Required by Law-City
Solicitor Watson Preparing As
signments of Error.

Attorney NJ. W. Lowry. who was ap.
pointed to hear the evidence in the case
of George w. Jenkins against the city
rendered a decision yesterday in which
he found for the plaintiff. awarding
him a verdict for sj,416. the exact
amount sued for.
Mr.. Jenkins was suing to recover his
salary as delinquent tax collector fol
the thirteen months beginning July 1
1901, and ending July 81, 1902. The Su.
preme court had already decided ir
favor of his original title to the office
and the point in this suit was as tc
whether or not he had been removed
from office.
In his opinion, Referee Lowry points
out that while 1t is claimed that former
City Treasurer Robinson was appoint.
ed as delinquent tax collector in July
1901. there is no documentary evidence
to prove this, the letter which Recorde,
w. l.. Connell sent, making the ap.
pointment, having been lost.
Admitting. however. that Mr.. Robin
son was appointed to the place. the
referee points out that he never quail
fled. Upon his own admission he never
filed a. bond, and II Is set forth as a
wcll established principle Of law that a
man is entitled to hold office until his
successor shall have been duly elected
and qualified.
II Referee Lowry's Interpretation of
the law is the correct one, then Mr..
Jenkins is III reality the collector of
delinquent taxes at the present time
and is entitled to draw salary at the
rate OF $4,000 per year. which is the
maximum fixed by the act
City Solicitor Watson. however. isn't
satisfied that Mr.. Lowry's interpreta-
tion is the correct one, and he is at
present engaged in preparing list OF
exceptions to the finding.
