WARDEN HUNTER DEAD

Been Warden for About Twelve


Been Warden for About Twelve
| Years.
Special to Times-Republican
| Anamosa. Oct An illness of about
a year, of Bright's disease, terminated
Sunday night in the death OF W. A.
Hunter. the we'll known warden of An
amosa pententiary, who leaves wife
and one daughter to mourn his demise,
also brother and sister, DR.. Hunter
and Mrs. Miller, residents of Newton,
where another brother died about a
year ago. His daughter has until re-
Gently been in one of the institutions
of higher learning in the east.
The prison at Anamosa has been
model during the administration OF
Warden Hunter. He abolished the lock
step and established the grading sys-
tenn. These two things have brought the
prison as near to being reforEaatory as
possible. He was diligently endeavor-
ing TO secure the enactment of laws for
the establishment of refOrmatory at
the Anamosa prison, and was not only
for the indeterminate sentence ana
board of pardons and paroles, so that
that business might be put on scien-
tific basis. but he was in favor of the
adjustment of capital punishment.
These things indicate the great heart
of the man and his sympathy and mer-
CIV for the fallen and the erring. He
dreaded the prospect of an execution
at the Anamosa institution while he
was in charge, and during his admin
istrati ton none took place.
Warden Hunter received the unqual-
fled appreciation of the state board of
control on his management of the in>
stitution, and his recommendations
concerning changes in methods, disci-
pine. etc, We're found uniformly to be
wise and beneficial
Mr.. Hunter had been warden of the
pententiary for about twelve years,
having first been elected by the legis-
lature and afterward retained by the
state board of control because Of his
extreme efficiency. He lived for many
years at Newton after leaving the
army, having worn the blue during the
war. Later he went to Belle PLANE,
where he was engaged for many years
in the electric light business. 1t was
while he was resident there that the
legislature elected him warden of the
penitentiary.

In order to operate its passenger

co & Orient Railway company has
leased q passenger engine from the
Chicago. Rock Island & Pacific rail-
way. For several days past the Orr.
ent's passenger train has been run

reason for this was that the engine
used on the passenger train was con.
tinually falling. Just now the Orient
Is short on engines. Several Orient
engines have died IN the road lately
and they are now In the shops at
Fairview undergoing repairs.
Engine No. IL Is a good locomotive
but has been used hard over the

one of the best engines Of Its type
in the west and after some needed
work has been done on 1t It will be
put back In service. The engine &C.
cured from the Rock island is a small
n compared to most OF the Orient's
engines. 1t Is heavy enough to handle
the passenger train, however. The
Rock Island will receive SIS for each

few days the Orient will receive two
