woMAN's BOARD REPORTS.

The report of the woman's board of
investigation of state charitable and
penal institutions has been filed with
Governor Byrne. The report indicates
the carrying into effect numerous re-
forms in management at the different
institutions in regard to sanitation and
better general conditions. Their sum-
mary of the situation at the penitentiary
is that the abolishment of the dark cell
and the silence at meals rules have done
great deal toward bettering conditions
They show population of POS of which
six are women. Sixteen of the prisoners
are life termers; 81 are out on parole
Since that institution was built in 1882.
2944 prisoners have served time, in the
institution.
Conditions at the state training school
have been improved with the new build
ings which have given better dormitory
and recreation advantages. The teach
ing of vocal and instrumental music has
been installed and conditions bettered
in many ways.
One of the criticisms of the tubercu-
losis hospital is that no adequate heating
facilities have been provided either in
the way of central plant or for the diff
ferent structures. Attention is also cal
led to the fact that patients are sent to
this hospital who are 30 far gone with
the disease that they cannot be bene-
fitted, and death soon results. The in
stitutons generally are reported to be
in first class shape, and the insane hos
pital at Yankton, and schools for feeble
minded at Redfield are given special
mention as to management with the
facilities given them for extentioL Of
their work.
