A serious prop m resulting from
rapid increase III prison ana insarr
asylum population i confronting the
Department Of Business Control. Ap-
preparations were made for example
on the estimate + 700 prisoners at
the state penite"t'ary which is likely
to have $50 prisoners by spring if tnc
present rate of increase continues.
All three of the insane asylums are
crowded now and the Monroe reform
atory is gaining inmates almost as
rapidly as the penit 'rtiar.,.
These uneXpecte increases in state
institutions add 10 maintenance costs
and the only way of holding down in
creased costs is by development Of
the state industrial program whereby
work given inmates not only keeps
them better satisfied, but also con
tributes toward their own support.
The woodworking plant at Monroe
is now making 1900 chairs needed by
different institutions. At the girls
school knitting, garment cutting and
shirt-making is progressing satisfac-
torily. New penitentiary industries
are making progress.

erroneous sales of state lands to set
tiers.
At present there are 1,S72,004.77
acres of land held by the state in its
different grants, including escheated
estates. When the lands about to be
conveyed by the federal government
are received the total will be in
creased to 2,330,l37.93 acres-unless
in the meantime this total is slightly
decreased by the regular sales. How
ever Washington will own more than
5000 square miles of timber, grazing
and agricultural lands, out of the 60
1877 square miles within the states
borders. There are only 1850 square
miles in all Rhode Island and 237O in
Delaware.
A recent statement by Commission
er Savidge showed that since state
hood 512,S4610 acres have been deed
ed to purchasers by the state and 1865.

Washington has been pressing its
claim for compensation for lands
swallowed up in forest reserves AMI
for lieu lands to take the place of
those enormously decided to settlers
by the Government for a decade. At
the time r. A. Ballinger was commits
sioner of the general land office and
Clifford Pinchot was chief forester an
effort was made to effect an exchange
of forest reserve lands, but Pinchot
objected, In 1918, Commissioner Sa-
vidge and w. Vaughn Tanner, then
attorney general, after an S-weeks'
struggle with the Interior Depart
ment, succeeded in getting approval
for the plan of land exchange. Blu.
fol the war this would have been eff
fected nearly four years ago. The
state has been ready to close the deal
for more than a year, but the latest
delay enabled the state to obtain com
pensation for timber blown down in
the selected areas on the west side of
the Olympics.
In all the work of selecting lands
which involved timber cruises and
surveys on mountain tops as well as
in valleys, only one fatality occurred
the death of Charley Carlson, a Sc
attic cruiser who fell off a cliff.

FIRST FOOTBALL GAME ,.....
PLAYED FOR CANNON

Denver, May 27.-A revolutionary
war cannon was the prize for which
Rutgers college and Prince univer-
sity first played organized inter-col
legiate football in November, 1869,
according to Homer d. Boughner of
Denver, who was a member Of the
Princeton team.
There were no regulation uniforms
in those days and there were 20 to rs
men on a team. as Boughner remem-
bers. Holding the ball or running
with it violated the rules as did hold
ing or tripping of players.
Rutgers won the first game, six
goals to four. The return game was
won by Princeton, Nov. 13, 1869,
eight goals to nothing, Boughner said.
The deciding game was never played,
the faculties of the schools believing
the interest of the students over tho
games was detrimental to scholarship.
Later, Boughner said, Princeton
won the cannon.
No admissions were charged to the
games and the visiting team and root
ers were royalty entertained.

RAILROADDNC IN ROCKY
MOUNTAINS A BIG TASK
(By United PreSS)

Denver, May 27.-Railroading in
the Rockies isn't all enjoyment of
beautiful scenery, take it from the
crew of Iarrow-guage Colorado and
Southern passenger train that crept
through the mountains during the
worst blizzards in the Rockies pretty
much all year round.
The train left Denver for Leadville
and while winding around canons and
over the rivers, the worst of the storm
struck.
In binding snow, obstructing OBJ
jects only few feet away, the train
crawled at snaiPs pace. Boulders
were pried off the rails by members
of the crew. Cross arms of telegraph
poles that had fallen across the track
were sawed off so the train could pro-
coed.
Trees and boulders bounced down
the side of the canon through which
swept 7O-mile wind. The smoke
stack on pretty near all the cars were
carried away. The headlight of the
locomotive was blown in. The train
rocked from side to side as it crawled
through the darkness on the edge of
the canon.
A minister among the terrified pas
sengers knelt in the aisle of one of
the cars and prayed. No one heard
him because of the wind.
Finally the train reached Pine
Grove, 40 miles from Denver, where
the snow drifts prevented further
progress.
