FOSTER EXPLAINS
PRISON MEASURE
Its Intent Not to Abolish Chain
gangs, Author Says-WouId
Reform Convict System,

Senator A H. Foster, author of a
bill to reform the Georgia convict
system, Issued a statement Saturday
explaining the object of the measure.
THE phrase, abolish chaingangs,'
has been misleading" Mr.. Foster said
'In the first place, this measure
does not contemplate taking the con-
victs off the roads at all. It's pur-
pose is to increase the efficiency of
convicts as road workers. 1t will
continue to allow counties to work
their convicts, and the phrase, 'abol-
ish chaingangs,' is true only in
technical sense.
The bill provides for reforms and
changes I believe are necessary. They
are practical and efficient The pro-
vision to abolish stripes and chains
means a gradual abolition, to be car
ried only as far as is practical. The
proposal to separate youthful offend
ers from hardened criminals is one
the value of which I believe no one
will dispute.
"One Of the features of the measure
I believe will commend itself to every
body win make possible the segre-
cation Of whites and blacks, which
is now not always possible. Under
the present law, when a white man is
convicted for a misdemeanor in a
county which has only a negro chain
gang, the white man must work on
the gang with the negroes This law
gives the Prison Commission the right
to move the white man in such a
case to another camp.

His Brother-in-Law Benefits.
By TARLEToN COLLIER.

WEST PALM BEACH, June Is
While a number Of the charges made
by Amasa Flagler, Ct California. re-
garding strange circumstances sur
rounding the death of Henry M. Flag
Ter to-day are found to be substantial,
the principal accusations that codiciIs
were added to the Flagler will, COM
oletely changing its effect and that
tho dying man was given insufficient
medical attention appear to fall with
out support.
Seven codicils to the viii are not
significant. Investigation into the
charges by Amasa F1agler that dark
work accompanied the end of his kins-
man was conducted by The Sunday
American. The stories Of the Califor-
mia man that Henry NJ F1agler was
kept In deep seclusion until the end;
that visitors, including himself, were
refused admittance; that the most
rigid privacy shrouded every detail OF
the railroad kings illness-all are
found to possess a substantial basis
of fact.
Amasa P. Flagler, Of California,
, who says he is the closest male rela-
tive Of Henry M. Flagler. except for
Harry Hardness Flagler a son, came
TO Palm Beach while the hnancier was
dying. and was refused a sight of him.
To-day he is talking freely to news
paper men. limiting at mystery in the
death Of Henry M. Flagler, charging
that the great railroad man was not
given the proper treatment or care,
and that Mrs. Flagler, J. B. Parrott
and DR.. w. R. keenan,, the three
who were practically alone with him
toward the end, and who, he points
out, were the benefciaries under the
will, kept visitors away purposely.
He died in a small room of frame
cottage on the Atlantic beach, to
which he had been moved some time
before the end. From one window is
TO be seen THE Breakers" his own
great hotel. It has been locked and
deserted since March. Through the
other window there is the sight of a
stretch OF parched grass, the beach
and the ocean.
Mr.. Flagler was moved to the beach
cottage from his mansion, white
hail." when summer began to set in
at Palm Beach. He was moved at
the combined orders of his physician,
DR.. W. R. Keenan,, and Mrs. Flagler.
DR.. keenan, is Mrs. Flaglers brother.
Because has was moved Amasa P.
F1agler finds the basis for a denun-
citation of those who took care Of
him, declaring that his kinsman was
taken to the empty beach cottage
that he might be more securely iso-
lated.

GIRARD, KANS.. June 28.-Girard
has found a happy solution to the
problem of Sunday baseball by setting
out one day in the week when every
body suspends business operations
and goes to the ball game.
This arrangement came through the
suggestion of the Rev. NJ. L. Morri-
son, pastor of the Presbyterian
Church, after considerable wrangling
early in the summer between people
who wanted ball games on Sunday
and those who did not. The new ar
rangement was tried yesterday for
the second time. Everyone is pleased
and the blue laws are enforced.

to, as we'll as in other eastern cities
Many of Bronsons former opponents
have been from the east, but they
have met the Hoosier boxer in his
own section of the country
Bronson wants to meet the winner
of the Packy McFarland-Jack Brit
ton battle, March Z, and has written
Billy Gibson, matchmaker of the
Garden club, telling him that he is
willing to make 1876 pounds at 3
o'clock, or six hours. before the fight,
for the winner of the bout. Bronson
beat Britton the last time they met
in New Orleans in a ten round bout,
and fought twenty-round draw with
Mcfarland in New Orleans, as we'll as

rounds in Indianapolis last year.
Bronson's next battle is with Leo

plans to make the eastern trip if he
can get the bouts arranged. Snowy
Baker, successor to Hugh Mcintosh

league was announced Saturday. The
opening day is Tuesday, April /, Port
land playing at San Francisco, Venice

that club. In accordance with this.
Venice takes the places of Vernon in
the printed schedule. 1t was stated,
however the only Sunday games will
be played on the Venice grounds, the
other Vernon dates being played at
