STATE BOARDS
POWER SHOWN.
The state board, of which Mr. Butler is
the head, has long been intrusted with
the enforcement Of its rules and it now
has the legal authority to see that the
rules are enforced, but the most of its
activities are confined to statistical and
publicity work and the attendance, at
state expense, OF numerous charity con-
ferences
Inquiry at the Jail revealed that those
in attendance there had no knowledge of
the state boards authority over the Jail,
had never met Amos Butler and doubted
whether Mr.. Butler himself had ever Wis
tied the jail, in spite Of the notoriety the
place received following the state board S
neglect of it.
These rules were not posted at the
county Jail Monday, when an inspection
Of 1t was made by other than inspectors

WHAT BUTLER
SAYS OF RULES.

Concerning these rules Sir. Butlor says
These rules were adopted by the board
years ago as suggestions TO county sher-
IFS and the courts for the conduct OF the
Jail.
They were made general in nature 50
that they would apply to all jails.
1.-The rules were printed on cardboard
for posting in the county jails and they
are posted whenever inspections are made
by representatives OF the board and are
supplied to sheriffs at any other time
they might desire them.
The enforcement Of these rules Is, OF
course governed by conditions at each
particular Jail. but sheri1s are urged 70
enforce them so far as practical
mo new rules governing the conduct
OF jails have been put into effect or even
SD ggested by the board Of charities
Mr.. Butler knows now and has known
for a long time that no particular effort
has ever been made 10 enforce these
rules in the Marion county Jail.

Some Memories OF Bohemia River And Tributaries

by the writer, 4 T.
High -orjqgtime hath touched thy bor1cr~. Bohemia,
For the genial touch Of her magic ward
Has left its imprint there.
As lifting their heads from their late lcafy beds
They now bloom in life and beauty anew.
And the ice king too late fcttcrod thy flow
Has reIinqushed his mission of might,
And thy silyery waters, unrestrained now bow
In the CLEAN of their beauty and light.
oh, thy borders and meads are fertile. know,
Ana the broad acres that girth them near.
viii soon, through Natures genial gifts,
In wealth Of rirenne harvests appear
And the wild flowers know, ttl bloom thy shore,
The flag. in its faireSt of blue
And the white water-lily from thy nourishing
In groups abundany grew.
And the dainty qrbutus that creeps from its mould,
Fer the stern winter is past.
And its fair petals of pink and of white
In rare waXeh-l,ke beauty and fragrance are c&.
And the wild roses that cling to the swaying boughs
OF the woodland skrting thy shore.
Aud the aures still bloom as of yore;
The beech and the oak the woodland king,
Casting their grotesquc shadows affair
DER the face Of thy mirror-ikc It'd,
The birds have returned from the bowers they sing,
And Red Robin $ erect hops along,
As i keeping time in his musical pride,
With the hooking birds medley of song.
And rare backhir,s are there, wearing red cpaes,
SO decking the, glossy black wings.
And the 'ark's early call warning to all
On the morn'S early dawnng he filings
All lavish Nature has surely loaned thee a charm
Fair river of the silvery sheen
Glowing onward still onward mid bird song and flowers
Through thy historic borders between
Though cannot compare thee with rivers
OF swift rolling or caaractS bold
But pride in the beauty of thy modest bright
Though thy sands be not studded with gold
Oh Queen Of the Manor. local stream
Though never again may stray by thy strand,
Or list to the birds pluck the wild flowers,
Or footprints may leave thy sands
