Truesdell and Wines, of the state beard of charities, te make an investigation, and the work of taking testimony was begun en Thursday. The alleged abuses, or at least theso te which the state beard of charities an nounced it would restrict the Investigation, are as fellows : It is claimed that two Insane female patients, Louisa Shlssler and Mary Babet, worekopt in zlnc-llued cells, about seven feet squve, with no beds, beddlng or even the necessary conveniences; that theso cells were' allowed te become filthy and remain se for days without beingcleaned ; that tbe patients in their demented condition, tere off their clothing and were allowed te re main absolutely naked, and that in this condition the ethor inmates of the peer house, as well as the empleyes of tbe peer farm, were allowed access te the corridor adjoining the cells and te stare and Jeer at them through the grated doersof their cells. It Is further charged that such attention a. these peer patients did receive was given them by male attendants, there being no female attendants employed at the peer llOllRO. Assistant Secretary Whip, of the state beard of charities, testified as te the results of an examination made by him. He Bald he found the women in zinc-lined cells, seven by seven and a half feet, filthy in the extreme and without conveniences. A former attendant testified that there were no female attendants ; that the women tore their clothes off and remained naked in their cells ; that he bathed them once a weekend cleaned out their' cells once or twice a month. Anethor witness testified that he hed seen the Shlssler girl fed. Her bands were tied behind her and, as the feed was placed en the fleer, she was obliged te get down and eat 1 er feed like a hog. It was in evidence that, aside from the insane patients, the house was well man aged. The management admitted that the Insane patlents were net as well cared for as they should be, but clalmed that it was the best that could be done. It Is also claimed that the investigation was set en feet by persons inimical te the managers of the peer farm. The December Agricultural Repert. The December report of the department of agriculture contains a detailed statement of the estimates of the principal cereals, by states, Including area, product and value. The ropertod area of corn, 78,319,eJl acres, represents an increase of two and a half percent, ever the average of 1888. The wheat acreage, 33,123,859 acres, Is two aud one-tenth per cent, greater then the aggre gate ferl&S. The revision of acreage gives a smaller area in, Iowa, Nebraska, Oregon and Washington, and a larger breadth in Kansas and Dakota. Dairymen and meat production have for years been encroaching en wheat growing en the eastern side of the great spring wheat belt, as former reports have shown. Wide fluctuations In breadth of wheat in Kansas, Illinois and ethor states, occurring from year te year, are the result of varlable moteerologlcal conditions. Economic con siderations, especially changes in market value, also affect peculiarly the distribution of wheat. The acreage of eats is placed at 27,462,310 acres, an Increase of less than two per cent. The yield per acre of corn is very nearly 27 bushels, or U-lOth bushelless than the product of 1879, and Is the largest rate of yield since 1680. The product, as estimated, Is 2,112,302,000 bushels. The largest yields are west of the Mississippi, Iowa taking first rank In aggregate produced and yleld per acre, 349,00)1,000 bushels, 39.5 per aero. The yield per acre of wheat Is nearly 12.9 bushels, or l-10lhef a bushel greater than the November average of yield per acre. The variation from the current exportation of the last six mouths is net ever 1 per cent. The total product, as estimated Is 490,500,000 bushels. The product of eats is 751,715,000 bushels, at the rate of 27.4 bushels per aero. The aggregate of all cereals Is about 3,450, 000,000 bushels, or at least 53 bushels per capita. A Pleasant Party.

Decllucs te T.ilic of Her Rumerrd En- iriiirement te De Navarre. Frem Dunliip's Cuhle Newn company. A dispatch from Nlce, France, siys: Miss Andersen, being lulorviewod te-day at the Hetel Mediterranean en the fcubiect of the ongngeiuent te young Mr. de Na Na vareo, said, bliishlngly: " Yes, I am aware tliat reports of my en gagement have been published lu New Yerk, but I mufct docllne te discuss the subJeH nt present. After all, I am getting tired of being married te nften. Apropos of this let me rulnte n recent incident. An An An otherMIssAnilerbon who lived In the same tnrruce was going te be marrledlii Louden. Her bridal presents wero regiilitrly brought tome. Number 2, gettlug angry, brought iter Intended te me and said : Yeu hud better take him, tee.' " After this Miss Andersen showed se muchreluctaiice te make any further state ment that the reporter bought Mr, de Navarre. " I must docllne te discuss the matter," he said, but he said with an evldeut air of satisfaction. J-ater in the day Miss Ander Ander eon was met and simply refused te discuss the matter. "But," the rojertor urged, "Abbey's agents Hay that you intend opening at the Bi ead way theatre, en the 'JStli of next Oc tober, lle geed enough te say whother that Is correct." " I expressed myself very plainly te you in our previous Interview. "I then said that I should net roappe.ir In jtiblle for an In definite porled, and I usure you that nothing tins occurred since thai tlme te ilmuge my inlud or plans." " Am 1 thou te understand," the reporter asked," that you have no engagement te apjiear lu New Yerk or elsewhere with any manager T Is it net possible that seme Louden engagement may have been con founded with Mr. Abbey's name?" " There Is no degroe of possibility about It. 1 tell you I have no engagement with any manager," and Miss A iiilorseu put an un conscious though significant emphasis en the word " manager," Our Mary never looked better or steuter. She assu roil the reporter that she enjoyed a dally drive and walk, and found that this uiode of 0en-atr life had al most thoroughly restored her health.

EIGHT PAGES.-PItICE The WhlpplnB-Pest for Wlfb-Ileatera. Frem the Philadelphia Ilulletln. Judge Bregy and District Attorney Gra nam, who for a geed many years have had Si-i ?rnmice In dealing with all kinds of wlfo-beatcr, are heartily In favor of setting up the wlilpplng.pest ler the punishment of this class' 6r scamps. Judge Bregy Is reported as seylng that the who beater "should be cowlilded te such an extent that frnr of having the dose repeated Will make him a better husband." The .Indira Is verv confident thnt tviilnnin these brutes will diminish the number rif rases ei wue-Dcaiing wnicti ceme betbrA hint end his associates en the bench, and which appear stilt mere frequently bofero the magistrates ofthe petty courts. Dis trict Attorney Graham takes the same vlew ofthe matter, declaring that "If the wife beaters could be made te feel pain for pvery pain they Inflict, there would be less wife-beating." On the ether hand Judge Gorden Is of the opinion that the establishment of a whipping-eost would be a disgrace te the com cem com menwotllh and that It would net be llkely te lessen the crlme which it would be In tended te prevent. He thinks that It would demoralize justice, that it is a "species of barbarism," and that wlfe-beallng after all Is net en the Increase. It may be doubted whother the Judge can give satisfactory S reef that the number of wlfe-beaters ha. ocrcased. It is certain that the time of the pelice and the courts In Philadelphia Is as mileh eccunlml In lenklnir nftnr n.-l, offenders as it has ever been, Jndge Bregy declarlncr that he had lint fturnr limn am-nn.' teen of thorn bofero him within a porled of two weeks. The practical sense of the question Is best expressed by the district atterney In say ing that "the man who beats his wire is beyond belng holped by confinement lu prison where he Is cmnfortable and can take things easy," Whlle he Is shut up there, it must be romembered that his wife and children must be deprived for woeks or for months or the support which he ewes lliein. It Is for tills reason chiefly that they are induced at the last moment te ask the courts te be merciful with the brutes nnd net send thorn te Jail, If they could be Hed up at the whipplug-pest and soundly Hogged, they would net only receive a punishment which they would net seen forget, but they would be ue oharge te the commonwealth aud could be Immediately sent home te stipiert their famllles. H it Is a " spocies of barbarism " te de this, as Judge Gorden says it Is, It Is still mere barbateus for the community te tolerato these brutal wretchtm and admit that it Is unable te punish them. THE WILD TURKEY'S FEROCITY. He Delights lu Breaking the Neat and Smashing tbe Egos. A Fert Davis, Texas, special says : Tho The wild turkey gobbler Is usually nn Ill natured churl, and will brook up his wife's nest aud smash the eggs every time he gets nn opportunity, lle Is evon werse than this, for when the young chicks are scarcely able te walk he will vent his splte and lll-toniper upon them net only theso belenging te his own family, but his neighbors' children, tee, IT he gets nchance. The mother scorns te knew this Instinct ively, for she will hlde her nest awav and guard her babies carefully from the ninle until tholltlleyoungstfarsbocomolargoand hardy enough te take caroef themselves. The greatest enemies te the wild turkey are the whtte men of our own country. Mexicans, as a rule, are tee lazy te hunt anything that is, te extermination and, until the elvlllr.ed Christian taught him hew, the Indian would as seen have eaten olseti as te touch a morsel of turkey flesh. The redskins have getten ever all that new, and will deveur our tavorlte bird with fully es much gusto and relish as they will eat roast deg and ttlthy Intestines of putrid animals. There used te be a suiierstlllen among our West ern aborlglnes that the souls of departed bucks, squaws nnd pappoeses found a tem porary resting place lu the bodles of wild turkeys. Fer (Ids reason you might as well have asked an Indian in the old day. te sheet his grandmether as te kill a turkey. A MPARRINn MATCH. Twe Ileys Amuse a Lurito Crowd ofTheIr 1'rlends With the Gloves. Lancaster seems te be full of sporting bleed Just new and it is net difficult te get up an "event" of any kind, The boys even have the favor and en Friday evenlng these residing in the northwestern part of the city raised considerable of an uxclto uxclte meut. Fer some tlme past there had been bad bleed botweou Jehn F. Hill und William Hamp. boys about 15 or 10 years of age, nnd they roselvod te settle It. It was agrced te have n sparring match They procured u pair of soft glev os from a man wne nan ueugui mom ter use uy ueys, and with ii large number of young frlends retired te n point near the college. In the crowd that went out were a large number of kids who wero delighted with thu pros pect ofseelng seme fun. It was net long until the boys were at work In a business like way. A ring had been made with stakes driven in the ground. Hill was attended by Sherman Fergusen, aud Hamp by lien Bucklus. Ralph Andersen acted as rofereo. The sparrers wero net allowed much rest, for in twenty minutes they had sixteen rounds. In that tlme Hamp was knocked down three times and that was enough ferlilm. He thou rofused te go en, as his back was sere and the refurce awarded the light te Hill. There was great cheering from the friends of Hill when the announcement was made and the boys hastened down town. A report was started by seme ene that a desporate bare knuckle prize fight had taken plnce. This was seen found te be wrong as with the gloves the boys used they would net be able te hurt each ether In a long time. MYSTKRIOU8LY INJUHKD. A Mini Who Says Hu Wim At looked lty a Crowd. On Friday aftornoen two men called at the office or Dr. II. I.'. Westhaeffur, en East King street. One el them was covered with bleed and said that he wished te be attended by the doctor. He was examined aud a cut te the Jawbene was found en the upper lip, his front teeth, abeve, wero out. There was a cut evor the right oye and an other en the lower lip. The doctor dressed the wounds and the man started off, going out East King street. The Injured man posi tively refused te give his name, but said that he and his companions wcroemployod In the nickel mines near Gap. They said they were walking along the railroad track near tbe big Conestoga bridge when they wero attacked by six men who txat thorn. This story seemed a llttle strange when ene man was found te be se badly used up while the ether did net have a mark. Beld men seomed very anxious that their names should net be ascertained. It is said by several men that pretend te knew that the strangers wero net attacked but the one re ceived his injuries by being thrown by a freight train which he was trying te rlde. Kusteu (Jlrls Reb a IMvellluir. During the abseiice Thursday night of the family of Aloxander A. Patch his resi dence en College hill, Easteu, was onterod und thoroughly ruiisacked by Mury Sny der and Martha Stull, the former or wl-em had recently left the sorv'.ce or the family asndomesttc. They get in through the cellar, turned en thoeloctrlo light, and stelo dresses, underwear, umbrellas, etc., and $5 from u child's bank. They then went te the Lehigh Valley doet and asked Officer Leng when the next train went te Scranton. The efficer inter hnd his suspicions aroused, and found the girls Is a closet changing their clothing. Fearing arrest, they run up the hill and leaped ever dltclies and fences, but were finally caught and locked up. The Snyder girl, It Is said, "squealed," aud all the goods except the meney, which was lest lu the chase, were recovered. u. Clin rued Willi Steillnj.- Tiirl.-eys. On Thursday night the premises of Peter U. Hershey, In Manhelm township, w,er0 visited by thieves. Twe turkeys were stolen and the tracks led from Hcrshey's place te the house of Daniel Drclbelbls.
