Something of the History and Work.
ings Of the State institution at Lam
caster Where So Much Good
Has Been Accomplished
For Young Manhood.

ancaster.-Probably one of the
most interesting institutions in Ohio
is the Boys Industrial school here.
This school, since it's erection in 1858,
has made wonderful progress and now
is recognized as one of the foremost
in its work.
In 1856 the legislature of Ohio, in
view Of alarming evils of Juvenile de-
linqGency, appointed a committee to
visit the reform schools of this coun-
try, and TO report a plan for a refor-
matory for the state. One of this COM
mibtee, c. Reemelin, of this city, soon
after hAs appointment was called to
Europe ca private business.
While in Europe he devoted much
time to examination OF reformatories,
and hiS report was adopted by the leg
islaturo, which appropriated $4,000
for the purchase of ground and the
erection OF suitable buildings for the
school.
Ten Cincinnatians Beginners.
A tract of land in Fairfield county
was purchased containing 1,170 acres
at a cost of $14,050. Sixty additional
acres have since been purchased.
A main building, four family build
iugs and a barn were erected, the
premises prepared for occupation, and
q beginning WAS made with ten boys
from Cincinnati. Since THAT time it
hn. H.ao oIy S,,+YO nH t11.n
business world over $4,000 boys who
have become honorable members of
the communities in which they reside.
No high fences, walls or bars re-
strain the boys from escaping, but kind
treatment and judicious management
prove it's success, demonstrated clear
~ by the records. Military discipline
is maintained, as an institution of this
kind, with so many boys in it's care,
requires such mode of discipline, but
all cam easily fulfill its demands.
"Spare the Rod" Praeticed.
Regularity in every department,
cleanliness, a requirement to labor, to
attend school and chapel services, are
things made obligatory and required
Of each boy. The fact that many of
the boys, after being educated at the
industrial school until they are hon
orably discharged, do make useful and
industrious citizens is but another evi-
dence of the power and benefit de-
rived from correct teaching, and also
proves that although a large number
of boys when first committed are not
only incor1igible but in many cases
very bad, they still may, with the care
given, be redeemed from their vices
and become in after life useful and
eminent men.
Result in Many Buildings.
So great the achievements of this
echool have been since its erection
that in 1910 the buildings consisted OF
the new administration cottage, indNbs-
trial building, laundry, bakery, tele-
graph office and detention hospital,

PLANS to Avert Water Famine.

No less than five bills for the
action of the Legislature have been
framed with view to settling Ak
ron's water crisis. Each has met with
objection and has been changed.
Last summer there were several wa.
ter famines. causing much actual suf-
fering. The present source is Sum-
NIT Lake, and this is contaminated.
Citizens are strongly for municipal
ownership, and the fight now is be-
tween those favoring the purchase of
the Akron plant and adherents Of a
new municipal plant.

Enlarged powers to inspect and test

bill, which passed the house. The old
dispute between the rival scale com.

out. Gebhardt of Dayton failed to
get in an amendment requiring the
sealer to make the test in comparison
with standards in his possession. Ge.
leerd of Toledo said the amendment
would make valueless the bill. under

Farmers Oppose the Yount Bill.

Franklin county farmers led in the
protest against the Yount hunters Ii
cense bill before tie house committee
on fish culture and game. Some OBJ
jected to it because they are opposed
to any form of hunting, except by
farmers themselves. Others objected
to the bill because it provides the
state fish and game commission is to
administer the license fee fund for the
protection of game. Farmers declared
the fees should be turned over to the
various districts which collected the
fees, making the district able to ex-
pend the money to better advantage
than the state commission. Gen. John
c. Speaks, fish and game warden, de-
Tended the Yount bill and was sup
ported by contingent of the farmers.
1t was said the committee would do
some tinkering on the measure before
giving it an 0. X.

MOUNTS TO MILLION MARK
Other Funds Produce Great
Revenues.

Columbus-The report of the exam.
ination of the financial side of the
Ohio State university as made by w.
Z. Baker of the state department of
inspection of public offices and insti-
tutions, presents in condensed form
statements of the endowments OF diff
ferent kinds that the university has.
The original endowment as the re-
suit of the congressional land grant
is now $524,176.50.
The university realized on sales Of
Virginia military Lands that were ced-
ed to the state by congress, $11O,-
261.S4 which have been added to until
the endowment fund from that source
is $125, ,649.89.
By the will of the late Henry Fol-
som Page, of Pickaway county, the
university came into possession of his
entire estate aggregating in value
$685. ,491.96. This makes the total
amount of endowment the income of
which may be used as the trustees OF
the university see fit, of $85S,690.2S.
Special Funds.
In addition the university has a
number of smaller endowment funds
whose incomes must be used for des-
ignated purposes. Among these are
the following:
The VIM. ]. Bryan fund now ag-
gregates $477.34. This was originally
only $3.50 but because no prize has
been awarded in number OF years the

No Extras.

Attorney General Hogan holds that
a sheriff or detective who goes out
Of the state to bring persons here for
trial or other purposes is not entitled
to extra compensation. An officer who
gets salary is paid for his time
whether outside or inside the state.
This claim for extra pay illustrates
the propensity to charge extra for
something that is unusual or out Of
the way a little, though the service
itself does not add a burden upon
which to base an extra claim. 1t is
pleasant to note that in this case,
which the law does not include, the
attorney general decides any doubt
in favor Of the people.

HIGHERCONFIDENCE.
Although Buying Is Not Heavy There
ls Some Inquiry and Hopes
Are High.

New York.-R. G. Dun G. Co.'S Week.
ly Review of Trade said:
Business looks better in prospect
than in actual performance, for conf
dence in the future is greater than
present activity.
Some lull appears in the demand
for pig iron, and in the markets for
finished products new orders are de-
veloping with less rapidity. However,
business as a whole is of satisfactory
propositions, and in the wide trade,
particularly spring, contracts have ex-
ceeded expectations, some manufac-
turers having enough on their books
to keep them busy up to the end Of
the year.
Equipment orders from the railroads
come out slowly, but one bridge prof.
ect will require about 10000 tons, and
considerable other work impending.
In WearabIes.
The primary cotton goods markets
are somewhat steadier at the new low
level reached on domestic bleached
cottons, a | reVisions in other lines
have not started. Export shipments
to date this year are nearly double
those OF a year ago. Jobbers report

Pig iron is quiet, though Canadian
interests are reported to have bought

ness in finished lines is not on par
