COMMIT I I EE
ON CRUELTY
CHARGES
Appointed to Investigate
Lansing Penitentiary Make
Public Their Report.

Topeka, Jan. S-The committee ap-
pointed by Governor Hoch TO investi-
gate the charges of cruelty. made by
Miss Kate Barnard, of Oklahoma. to-
ward the pcnitentiary convicts at
Lansing, MADE public their report to-
day The committee finds little sub
stance to the charges made by Miss
Barnard, and the report practically
exonerates Warden Haskell. 1t recon-
! mends that as soon as possible, the
Oklahoma prisoners be removed from
the Kansas penitentiary. that better
hospital facilities be furnished. and
that the system of contract labor be
abolished and tnat eight hours consti-
tute days labor; that only one pris-
oner be allowed in a cell, and that at
least as much be spent for educational
purposes as for tobacco.
The committee also recommends
that the mining of coal be continued,
depending upon the number Of avail
able men, and finally that the entire
administration be removed from polIti-
cal influence and the term Of the war
den be during good behavior.
Miss Barnard made sweeping
charges today. She alleged that while
Oklahoma does not care to investigate,
the business management of the pris-
on, She is ready and willing, If the
Kansas committee wishes it, to prove
TO them that there is graft and corrup-
tion in the contract shops and in the
management Of the prison.
Asked if II were fact that her pri-
vate secretary was an ex-convict, the
witness replied
That's an imposition and an insult.
What do You take me for? The gen
tleman has a better reputation, and
more culture, no doubt, than you your
self"
Miss Barnard read lengthy state
ment which she had prepared in which
sne reiterated her charges against the
prison. She charges, among other
things, that gambling was permitted In
the administration building by the
warden when the prison was Quaran-
tined from the smallpox
On the matter Of punishment, she
said.
Il hereby dare the warden and dep
uty warden. who have testified that
the punishment is not cruel or painful.

A little chap with a bundle OF news
papers under his arm lay down on the
ventilatoF just outside Broadway ho-
tel in New York city the other evening.
1t was about 10 o'clock, and the
newsboy was tired and chilled and dis
couraged over his poor sales. The
draft Of warm air from the furnace
soon put him to sleep.
There he lay in the full glare of an
arc light. his cap tumbled off in front
Of him, sound asleep.
People passed and smiled at the tiny,
cuddled figure Some, kind hearted,
dropped pennies into the cap.
Even the policeman on the beat,
whose occupation 1t was to whack
with his club the feet soles of sleep
ing men and boys, looked at the sleep
ing child and passed on
The tired little fellow had lain in the
warm draft for an hour.
About II o'clock a well dressed lady
came out of the hotel entrance and,
noting the boy, went over to him. Re
moving one glove, she placed her hand
on his shoulder. Failing to arouse the
child, she shook him few times,
The newsboy awoke with start;
but, seeing friendly face instead of a

murmured, "Oh, let me sleep!"

The boy had dropped back into the

With The Legislators

Henry Sticks. of Lebanon. repre-
sentative from Boone county, is not
satisfied with the workins of the blind
tiger law passed by the last legisla-
ture and has introduced a bill to
amend it. The president law, he says,
is of little value. Druggists continue
to sell to anybody that comes in with
anything that looks like a prescription
he says, and the line is not drawn
against minors. Sticks is preparing to
draw fire from the wholesale and re-
tail druggists of Indiana.
The bill provides that it shall be law

printed or typewritten) prescription o.

TIMES BUREAU
AT STATE CAPITAL.

Indianapolis. Ind, Jan. 20.-It looks
like the senate is in earnest with the
Mattingly bill for publicity of cam
paign contributions, for the senate
committee has already made a favorable
report on il and it is now ready for
second reading in the senate On sec
ond reading a bill may be amended, but
as far as is known now there are no
amendments in sight, and the bill Is
likely to pass. 1t prohibits. corpora
lions from making contributions to
campaign funds either directly or in
directly; provides that no candidate or
holder shall contribute to any or
ganization of which he is not a mem
Der. thus keeping him free from being
the victim of lodge grafters and church
social ticket sellers; provides that all
contributions shall be published both
before and after the election; that
candidate for Office must publish his own
personal campaign expenses; and pro-
vides heavy penalties for violations OF
the law 1t will be the most severe
election campaign law yet enacted in
Indiana, and the peculiar part of it is
that it appears to have the support of
democrts and republicans alike.
Another bill that the senate commit
tee has made a favorable report on is
the one to amend the hunting tress-
pass law Under the present law If a
/ hunter is found trespassing on land
and he has a gun or fish pole, this
4 fact is prima facia evidence of the fact
that he is trespassing to hunt or fish
The proposed amendment would change
| this law so that the presence of the
gun or fish pole would not be prima
facia evidence of trespass for that
purpose.
The same old bill that has appeared
at every session of the legislature fol-

instance. however, English is the tow
