SERIOUS CHARGES.
Her r I bio Cruelty and Neglect Aliened
tu the Treatment of Lunatics.
Seme time age the Humane Society of
Wheaten, 111., made complaint te Govorner
Fiferin regard te the treatment of Insane
patients confined at the peer house, near
Wheaten. The governor directed Drs.
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.
A very pleasant evening party was held
at the residence of Jehn B. BIsslnger, pro
prietor of the Maner hotel, last evening, In

off at the ground like pine sticks. Several
people made narrow escapes from death,
as the slide came without the slightest
warning.
It I. believed that a Chinaman and a

that another slide may occur at any mo

anxiety.
Aa seen as possible after the sllde yes

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. She
did net, linwever, tell the reporter what he
already knew, that en these drives and
walks she accompanied solely by the De

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.

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.
