THE PITTSBUEG DISPATCH, TUESDAY MAY 10, 189a
-N(MMWki
NO FAULTS ARE FODKD
With the Management of the Hunt
ingdon Reformatory.
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE.
Conduct of the Assistant Snperintendent Is
Indorsed.
SENATOR OSBdUGN'S CHARGES FIL
James B. Scott, a member of the State
Board of Charities, and Chairman of the
committee appointed to investigate alleged
irregularities in the management of the
State llelormatory, at Huntington, has pre
pared and will probably this week submit to
Governor Fattison a report of that investi
gation. The report will be comparatively short,
but it will review in detail the cause of
the trouble in the Huntingdon institution,
will fully and thoroughly vindicate the
management and will indorse In positive
terms the assistant superintendent of the
Reformatory, upon whose account the in
vestigation is alleged to have been institu
ted and whose dismissal was asked by those
who instigated the inquiry.
The story ot the investigation and the
cause leading to it is interesting. Senator
Frank Osbourn, of Philadelphia, is a law
yer of standing and reputation. Shortly
otter the adjournment ot the last Legis
lature, and after Senator Osbourn had re
turned to his law practice, the son of one of
his clients nas convicted of some petty
crime, and was sentenced to the Reforma
tory at Huntingdon.
A Limit to Senatorial Courtesy.
A week after the boy had been commit
ted Senator Obourn wrote a letter to the
management of tne Reformatory asking for
the boy's release. The Superintendent at
Huntingdon wrote back to the Senator re
tusing to release the boy, and assuring Sen
ator Osbourn that only the Governor and
the Pardon Board had the authority to re
lease a prisoner from the institution. The
Senator immediately replied, saying he
knew thoroughly well where such authority
rested, but he asked tor the boy's release as
an act of Senatorial courtesy. The As
sistant Superintendent then wrote back to
the Senator saying that Senatorial courtesy
could not be extended to a violation of the
law.and that the boy would not be released.
Then Senator Oobourn threatened that he
would prevent the Huntingdon institution
from receiving an appropriation from the
State.
Judge Arnold, of Philadelphia, then or
dered that ten of the worst inmates of the
Huntingdon institution be turned over to
him. The Huntingdon authorities obeyed
the order of the Philadelphia court, and
ten bojs who had been sent irom Philadel
phia were released and sent with an officer
to Philadelphia, where they are confined at
Moyomensing. On the testimonv of these
boys, Senator Osbourn instigated the in
vestigation. The Senator at once visited
the Governor, and told him the disclosures
made by the released boys. The Governor
assured Senator Osbourn that he would at
once go to Huntingdon and look into the
alleged irregularities.
Ills Own Investigation.
"Governor, you need not go to Hunting
don" the Senator said, "I will go there my
self." The Senator did go there. He was
met at the institution by the Committee of
the Boanl ot Charities to whom he said: "I
did not want the Governor here. This is
not Pattison's investigation. It is Os
bourn's investigation."
The inquirv was then instituted. The
charges ot mismanasement, incompetency
and cruelty were laid against the assistant
superintendent, but the report which is now
prepared will declare the institution to be
thoroughly managed and will especially ap
plaud the conduct of the assistant superin
tendent. The action of Judge Arnold in
ordering and securing the release ct the ten
bojs troiu the Reloruiatory will not be ap
proved and the enforcement of the law gov
erning such case will be recommended,
lu a recent opinion on the law governing
the Reformatory, Judge Samuel L. diehard,
ot Mercer county, decided that the manage
ment of the Reformatory had authority un
der the law to send refractory inmates of
the Reformatory to one or other of the pen
itentiaries of the State. That is, a boy sent
irom the eastern end of the State can be
sent by the Huntingdon management to the
Eastern Penitentiary, and one committed to
the Reformatory from the western end of
the State can be sent to Riverside, there
to remain always under the jurisdic
tion of the Huntingdon managemenl-
The enforcement of this feature of this law
will be recommended by the report of the
Investigating Committee, and hereafter all
refractory prisoners at Huntingdon will be
sent to the penitentiary in the district
from which they were sent to the Reform
atory. Tiiis arrangement, it is argued by
lhc report, will keep down disturbances
and will tend to allay the ugly rumors
which it is claimed are always started by
the inmates of the concern, and upon in
vestigation have always been found to be
without foundation.
WANTS MOKE CABBAGE FUBNACZS.
Mr. Tatrlck Doesn't Think Well or the Plan
to Make an Island Dnmplnc Ground.
"W. W. Patrick, who is President of the
Rider Carbage Furnace Company, talked a
little about the carbage question yesterday.
He says what the city needs is more
furnaces. He built the one at Hardscrabble
and it was to have a capacity of 30 tons per
day. The city undertook to overload it,
and to facilitate combustion put in gas at a
cost of 5500 per month. This was spending
money at a lively gait, and it was too ex
pensive. Mr. Patrick says 60 bushels of
slack coal per day will run any of the
furnaces, and the cost of one should not be
more than $10 per diem.
He doesn't think much of the plan to
make a dumping ground out of one ot the
islands. He says not more than 100 tons of
garbage is made in the city in a day, and it
could be easily handled in the furnaces. He
says if the carbage is dumped in boats along
the two rivers, it will become a seething
mass in a few days in the summer, and the
city will be inoculated with typhoid fever
germs. The miasma in the atmosphere is
caused by decomposing vegetable matter.

DRAHK HUMAN BL00O.
for
Death of an Iowa Man Who Thirsted
Gore for Seventeen Tears.
Bentos', Ia., Slay & Joseph Hamilton,
who has spent the last 17 years of his life in
chains, died yesterday. He had a terrible
mania, a thirst for human blood, which
nothing could appease, and he had to be
kept in irons all the time. When about 25
years of age Hamilton acquired this appe
tite by tasting blood in a fight
He was watching a sparring match when
he saw blood flow from the nose of one man
and went wild instantly. Drawing a knife
he plunged it into the heart of a bystander
and drank his blood as it flowed. He killed
another man before he was arrested.

"Looks like a

there's one thing

Pierce's Favorite Prescription is guaranteed
to help her.
It's a legitimate medicine, made especially
for woman's needs; an invigorating, restora

nervine, imparting tone and rigor to the
whole system.
But it isn't a mere stimulant. It's a reme
dy, safe and sure, for all the functional de
rangements, painful disorders, and chronic
weaknesses that make women suffer. In
"female complaints " of every kind, pe
riodical pains, internal inflammation, ulcera

to benefit or cure, or the money is returned.
Ko other medicine for women is sold so.

GEHTurarEir I have been a great sufferer
from muscular rheumatism for a period of
nine years and suffered the most acute pains
in my limbs. For many years my occupa
tion was messenger for the B. & O. Express
Co., also conductor, Pullman Car Co.; at
S resent am employed by the United States
xpress Co., Pittsburjr, Pa.
At times I have been so crippled with
rheumatism that I have had to be carried
from my c and taken home in a convey
ance. About Jan. 3, 1892, I was attacked
again with my old complaint and was about
dlsoouraged. I learned of your remedy,
Bbeumacura, p jrchased a bottle; the result
has been beyond my most sanguine expecta
tions. I have had no trouble since using it,
and feel myself a new man physically and
am certain of a permanent cure.
I can cheerfully recommend itheumacura
to all persons afflicted with rheumatism.
Very truly yours,

KAUFMANNS
ORIGINATORS OF THE "WALK WELL" SHOE
The old fallacy that the foot must fit the shoe, instead, vice versa, the shoe the foot, has
been thoroughly dispelled by the introduction of KAUFMANNS' celebrated "Walk-Well."
Much time, thought and money has been expended to produce the "Walk-Well," but the
result is a triumph of modern shoe making. It means the redemption from corns, bunions
and the pains in general produced by ill-fitting shoes. The "Walk-Well" is made with a view
to perfect ease and comfort It follows the natural outline of the foot, holding it firmly
through instep and heel, and allows the weight of the body to rest squarely on the ground,
instead of on the toes and joints. The soles are of peculiar shape and of sufficient width to
allow the foot and its joints the necessary expansion without the uppers losing their natural
shape and extending over the sides, thereby giving elasticity to the step and lessening the
liability of the uppers to crack. :: :: :: :: :: :; :: :: ;: :: :;
