THE PENITENTIARY.
VERY FINE SHOWING MADE BY SUPER
INTENDENT GRIFFITH.
The Financial Report Is Especially Good
Considering Adverse Circumstances
Interesting Facts.
lColumbla Record, 9th.

Captain Griffith, superinten of
the penitentiary. has completed and
filed his report, which makes most
excellent showing financially and
otherwise. Considering the failure
of the crops the previous year and
the fact that Il great part Of the sup
plies had to te bought, and further
considering that the price Of all such
articles was nearly double what they
had been, the financial showing is
remarkable.
The financial part Of the report
shows that there was On ha.d De-
oAnber 81, 1901, 81, 1877 .02, and that
there had been received since then
$72, 2.l0, making total cash sum
available for the year, $84 ,O60.2l.
After paying all necessary expenses
and making permanent improve.
ments amounting to 1900, there
remains balance Of $l7,11214. To
this must be added what is in sight
aud soon to be available, making u
total balance OF $23,4O2 o.. The
crops were good this year and after
having enough to run the institution
for year there will be for sale 5000
bushels of corn, 500 tons of hay and
5000 bushels of peas.
During the year there were 98l
prisoners, but the number has been
reduced to 70l. There we're 80 par
dons and 45 deaths. This seems a
large number, and it is, but 1t was
caused from tho fact that great
many diseased and physically worth
less prisoners were sent to the peni.
tentiary rather than the chaingang.
The supervisors of couLties have the
right TO make Il pick of the convicte
and they invariably select the healthy
ones and dump the diseased ones on
the penitentiary. The cause of death
was consumption and pneumonia in
a grent majority of cases, and Capt.
| Griffith recommends that there be
separate building for the treatment
OF such prisoners. There are 33
prisoners in the reformntory, being
boys under sixteen years old. There
were IL escapes during the year,
though only two of them were d.
rectly from the penitentrry, the
others being from chaingangs.
During the year seven conviots
were furnished almost daily, with q
guard, for work about the State
house. Thirty were also furnished

pronounced it smallpox
