ANGOLA PENAL FARM.
\ Noiul Condition Reported by an
Escaped Convict.

IT is stated in a telegram from
Beaumont. Texas. that on Sept. / E.
a. Anderson, an escaped convict
from the Louisiana prison farm al
Angola, was arrested in that town

his recital is true there should be

OF It's convlrts, as for instance as
emphasized in he Bismark IN, ID

tutions in Northern and Western
States.
The penitcniary system of Louis
lana has long since been in need Of
bctlrrlnenl consistent with the die
lalcs OF humanity Here is in part
Andcrson's story as given from
Beaumont
This is Anderson's second attempt
to cvadc the service of three years
for forgery committed in Lake
Charles in January 1912, when he
affixed lhe signature of G. Brent
Richard to two checks, according to
his own statement. He says he was

to escape one year ago, but was cap

dogs. and beaten half to death with
a strap five feet long, four inches
wide and quarter OF an inch thick.
He says he would willingly serve his
time if the men at the Angola farm
were treated as human beings He
declares the convicts are beaten I'M

daylight to dark, sick or well, and
are not given sufficient food.

$4,000 a year by abolishing some
of The sinecures about the place.
The prisoners are only half fed, and
very badly treated. No efforts are
made to reform the men. There's
nothing to read they are allowed
no privileges, and a minister is sell
dom seen.
Sanitary conditions are bad No
effort is made to maintain cleanli-
ness among the men. Two towels arel
furnished for $50 prisoners. The
prisoners are fed like dogs, without
knives or forks. TO make up for the
lack Of table ware, many of the men
are permitted to have knives and
even razors. In the walls at the
Baton Rouge prison it is different.
There the prisoners are treated de-
Gently and given enough to eat. Just
previous to DR. DOwling's visit to
Angola several weeks ago there was
q general cleanup, and TO make up
for the dearth of towels flour sacks

TAXING POWER QUESTION.
Democratic Theory For Many Years

No Power to Levy Taxes Except For

BetMaen Senators.

Washington. Sept 81 Special. J.
With a stiff graduated income tax
made a part Of the tariff bill. with q
prohibition against specializing III
stocks on exchanges save by paying
high tax, with q currency measure
more liberal than any ever proposed, it
would appear that the country IS get
ting along toward doctrines which
were enuncintcu hy the Popnlists at
Ocala, Fla. back III 1880, when there
was general wave Of disapproval ex-
pressed by men Of both old parties.
Many things which that platform
contended for We're put forward by
Theodore Roosevelt. and others are be
ing Incorporated into law by Woodrow
Wilson A few more remain to be
considered such as the Inheritance

1.-THE chosen few who framed this
bill are only a small minority of the
ma jority," replied Norris.
But the controversy did not end
there, for the Mississippi senator was
never known to let anybody have the
last word in any discussion.

Defending the conditions in the tex
tile mills Of New England, Senator
GaIlinger said that there is better
air in those mills than in the senate
chamber, the bureau Of engraving and
printing. the pension office or the cen
sus office"
Senators have at one time or an
other complained Of the foul air in the
senate, and all the employees Of the
offices mentioned will agree with Gal
linger that the ventilation couldn't be
much worse in any kind Of mill.

were discussing the clothes of senator's

save money. Garry Hermann says
he has never interfered in the pur-
chase or release ora player. This be-
ing true, monumental blunders must
be charged to the managers.
But these managers have made
good with other clubs. Clarke Grit
fifth made Washington a winner in
one season after leaving Cincinnati;
.pennant contender in fact.
Mysterious luck which even the
players cannot fathom pursues the
team. Stars with other clubs slump
when with the Reds and fair men
leave Cincinnati to star somewhere
else.
: BeaIs Becker helped the Giants win
a flag. Traded to Cincinnati he hit
around 200, but when sold to the
pills began and continued to bat
around 800. Tex Mcdonald wasn't
even Red regular; with Boston;he
is one of the best hitters In the
league; then there are Steinfeldt and
Overall, who left the Reds to help win
four Cub pennants. tx
Clarke Griffith traded Paskert, Lo-
bert and a few others for Grant,
Bates and some more. At the time
Grant was about the best third base
man in the league, but he never look
ed the same as Red.
Cincinnati should employ efficient
scouts and toss printed averages into
the waste basket; the owners should
get away from the idea of saving a
few thousand by releasing every play
er who sits on the bench a few days
without playing.
With these changes in policy per-
haps the old hoodoo would be over
come. The club has spent lots of
money, but hasn't shown baseball
wisdom in the spending.
McGraw and Mack have an abso-
lutely free rein in handling their
clubs. If Joe Tinker is given the same

JUDGE CALLS POLICE STATION
) "CHAMBER OF HORRORS"

Cf1HMBEk Or f1ORkOKS
The South Clark street police sta
ton is again the target for an attack.
This time it has been termed the
chamber of horrors" Judge Ma
honey is the latest to score the dark
ened and unsanitary conditions of
this usually congested police station.
Judge Mahoney recently allowed
thirty-two prisoners out of Jail on
their promise to return for trial.
He did that because he thought
that the station was absolutely dan
gerous place to spend night in.
1--WE can see all the horrors of
foreign prisons and preach about the
Russian jails,'' said Mahoney, "but
we fail to notice the appalling con-
ditions right here in Chicago. With
the quarters provided by the city the
police are powerless to provide more
sanitary care for prisoners.
.'And it's these poor devils that
have got to suffer because the finance
committee Of the city council isn't
going to pay any attention to them.
Several aldermen have visited the
jail and expressed their horror, but
you bet they don't do anything
about it.
Here they are spending millions
to create a boulevard ling between
the north and south sides, a mag
nifcent pier and fine recreation
parks, while right here is where
money is an absolute necessity to
save human lives"

Harm WROUGHT by Free Beer.

Some of the older insurance compa-
MES of England used to dispense beer
free to their employees. A drunken
orgy took place every afternoon
Those clerks who did not want the
free beer left theirs for those who did,
One man told how he thought nothing
of drinking sixteen glasses one after
the other, and his statement was sub
Stimulated by other men. Before the
free beer system was ended the an

Rohespierre BOUQUETS.

Robespierre bouquets are one charm
ing phase of the dainty nosegays worn
on the lapel of street coat, pinned to
the neckpiece or stuck at one corner
of the big square muff. They consist
of four small roses in 'old tones" a
spray or two of tiny white blossoms
on moss colored stems and a single
green thistle. The white blooms and
the thistle must be purchased of an
artificial flower dealer, but the roses
may be home made Take a half fin
gers length of inch wide panne vel
vet in pale pink, double it, shirr the
two edges tightly, produce calyx with
a few threads of yellow floss. and that
makes one rose. A deep purple rose
should be centered with bright green
floss, brown taupe rose with emerald
and Parma violet rose with orange.
When all these velvet exotics have
been clustered with the thistle and the
fine white flowers their common stem
should be wound with tin foil. as that
makes the Illusion the more complete.

LETTUCE WHILE YOU WAIT

When at dinner in Rome a tourist

growing on the parent vine, in COM
mon earthen pot which was concealed
by a sash of wide ribbon. she thought
this was the last word with regard to
serving food at the dinner table. Il
remains, however, for a New York
florist to work what seems like a mir
acle. He claims to he able TO grow
lettuce while you wait-crisp lettuce
FOR dinner to eat with your broiled
spring chicken.
When asked to reveal his secret he
said: Il take a handful of lettuce
seeds that have been soaked over
night in alcohol and plant them in a
box containing three inches of loan
and quicklime. | water this well, and
in ten minutes the seeds burst. In
/ twenty minutes two tiny leaves push
/ through the earth. The leaves grow
and multiply. In an hour they are as
big as dollars. Then you may pluck
and eat them. They are deIicious-a
fairy salad. Sometimes when | give
