THE REFORMATORY IDEA A. W. BUTLER TALKS OP ITS DEVELOr3IEXT I IXDIAXA. Points Dlacusned in a Paper Itead Before the Century Club Laut Meht. In a paper read last night by. Amos W Butler, secretary of the State Board of Charities, before the Century Club some very interesting facts were stated with regard to the "Development of the Reformatory Idea in Indiana." In treating the subject the care of those under punishment by confinement in thi3 State the whole history was gone over, from the time of the log and rail Jail In the early days to the full working of th Reform Schools and Reformatory under the indeterminate sentence and parole law. The treatment of criminals was divided into three divisions: First That In which the State or the injured one wrought vengeance upon the offender. SecondThat In which the State punished the wrong-doer. Third That in which the transgressor is given an opportunity to reform while under the penalty of the law. "While the historical part was interesting as history, that which attracts most attention is the reorganization of the Reformatory and State Prison along recognized reformatory lines, and the results of the administration of the indeterminate sentence and parole law. "At the Reformatory," said Mr. Butler, "in the three years from April 1, 1&7, to March 31, 1900, 532 men were paroled. Of these forty-two were returned to the institution for various causes. In all neventynlne men, or 14Vfe per cent., have thus far proven unsatisfactory. From the Statt Prison 1S5 men have been paroled. Fifteen, or a little less than 9 per cent., have been reported as having failed to show themselves worthy of the liberty intrusted to them. From April 1 to Oct. 1, 1816, prior to the enactment of the indeterminate sentence law, the number of men released after one year's service was 32 per cent From April 1 to Oct. 1, 1S97, under the indeterminate sentence law, the average number of men released after one year' service was 13 per cent. At the State Prison South the last 300 men sentenced under the definite sentence law served 571 years and ten months, an average of one year, ten months and twenty-four days. Under tlu new law the first 300 men received at the Reformatory had, up to. March 1, 11W0, served CIO years and one day, or two years, 12.93 days, and 130 still remained in prison. "What has become of these paroled men".' Most of them remain faithful to the trust reposed in them. But forty-two of those sent out from Jeffersonville have been returned for the violation of the terms of their parole. Four of those paroied are serving additional sentences, and but one has been resentenced to the Reformatory. During the first threo years of the Reformatory's history these paroled men together earned Two hundred and eighty-four of them also received their board, which, at an average of $3 a week, is I21.C60, making a total of SDZMX.M. The aggregate time these men have been out upon parole, not counting the time of those returned to the institution or who have been discharged, amounts to SS3 years. The gross cost of maintenance of each inmate for the. year ending Oct. 31, 183). was $116.11; hence had these young men remained this time in the Reformatory they would not only have failed to earn the amount that has been Indicated, but would have cost the State 114.470.13 for their support. In addition some of them would yet have years to serve, and, therefore. bt a continuing expense to the Commonwealth. "The experience at the State Prison at Michigan City is substantially the same. Nine of those paroled have been returned to the Institution. In the three years of its existence under the present name, its paroled men have earned J23.7CS.13. Ninetyfour of them, also, were furnished board to the value of J7.&10, making a total of J3l,67.15. Had they remained in prison for the time calculated herein they would have been an additional expense of 53.519.01 to the State. Putting this all togther it will be seen that these paroled men have earned for themselves and saved for the State, under the operations of the new law, $17.424.78. The paroled men are encouraged to save their money. Some, when they receive their final discharge, have had over $100 to their credit. Some have Invested In real estate. Others have placed their savings in business. Still more have gathered together their families and re-established their broken homes. The men reporting for the month of March. lOOO. showed that they had on hand and due them $13.511.73. Each of these left the Reformatory Ies than a year ago and with very few exceptions had not to excede $20 a piece. In cluding the value of the suit of clothes he wore." In pakinff of the Jails Mr. Butler said: "Our Jails should be but places of detention, and at the most confinement therein after conviction should be for the shortest term. Those convicted are Imprisoned for violation of state laws. Why should not all our minor prisons, then, be under state control? To secure proper results district workhouses should be established. These need be under nonpartisan control. All persons sentenced for more than thirty days should be confined therein. The in mates should be properly classified and kept employed. Every effort should be put forth to help them reform. The results should be a lessening of crime and conse uent decrease in public expense. Pro vision should be made for the employment of matrons to properly care for women prisoners confined in our Jails and work houses." Mr. Butler condemned the nre tnt Indiana Jail system, and es'iK'clally the congregating of prisoners, as leading to an eaucauon in crime. A new $225 Piano for $153 at Wulschner.

The Salary of the Governor May Be Increnned from $.1,000 to

PAY OF SUPKEME JUDGES WILL ALSO BE RAISED IF THE BILL IS ADOPTED. LiiTr negalntlnK Payment of Fees In to Stute Treanary to be Strengthened by BUI. The State Fee and Salary Commission has finally completed its bill to be pre sented to the next Legislature and It Is now in the hands of the printer. With relation to state officers the bill will recommend an Increase In the salary of the Governor from $5,000 to JS.000. The salary of the Governor's private secretary will be in creased from $1,800 to $2,400, which is about the average salary of the private secre taries of the different states. The salailes of the Supreme Judges will be increased from $4.500 to $6,000 and the salaries of the Appellate Judges from $3,750 to $4.000. The secretary of the State Board of Health Is to receive a straight salary of $2,400. The present law has been strengthened in regard to the payment of fees into the state treasury so that every fee of every kind will be paid into the State. The system of accounting in all state offices has been made more specific. Several lines of investigation relative lo the salaries of county officers occurred to the board, but each one of them would have led to the collection of a vast amount ot useless material, and It was, therefore, deemed best to make the investigation as simple but as thorough as possible, hence the commission decided to connne its inquiries to the office work, which Is already known as prescribed by the statutes, as resources and revenue. This would enable the commission to meet the constitutional requirements that all salaries shall be based upon population and necessary services rendered. There were numerous suggestions offered the commission to take up specific duties of the various county officers and base thereon the specific salary for each officer, but this. It was decided, would leave the causes of complaint Just where they are now. It would by no means do away with the inequalities of which complaint has been made and will be continued to be made under the law of specific allowance. This further empha sized the necessity of a law simple but comprehensive in its requirements. The commission, therefore, decided to recom mend to the Legislature the fixing of all salaries to be paid, irrespective of fees. based upon population so as to answer the constitutional requirements relative to population. In addition thereto each officer is to be allowed 10 per cent, of all the fees collected by him so as to meet the con stitutional requirements with reference to services rendered. Therefore the officers of two counties of the same population will receive the same salaries, but the greater or less compensation as a whole will depend upon the collection of fees. Thus for the county clerks the commission will recommend $120 for each one thousand population up to ten thousand, and JW a thousand for each one thousand population thereafter. In addition they will have 10 per cent, of all the fees collected by them. The auditors will receive under the recommendation the same amount on population as the clerks, but the fees of their offices being meager, 10 per cent, of them alone would leave a great inequality as between the total compensation of the clerks and auditors. To obviate this difficulty and to equalize the auditors with the clerks. It has been decided to allow the auditor in addition to his salary on population and 10 per cent of the fees, an amount payable out of the treasury equal to 10 per cent, of the school fund Interest collected by him. To the treasurer, his salary fixed on population, it will be urged, shall be paid $100 on one thousand population up to ten thousand population and 150 for each one thousand population thereafter, with'an addition of 6 per cent, of all delinquent taxes collected by him. It was decided to give the sheriff $110 per thousand population up to ten thousand population and $10 per one thousand population for every one thousand thereafter with 10 per cent, of his fees. The recorder Is to get $90 for each one thousand population up to ten thousand population and $30 for each one thousand population thereafter with 10 per cent, of his fees. The salaries computed on population are to be paid directly out of the county treasury each quarter. Irrespective of fees. In other words, it is to be a fixed salary whether the fees collected to pay it are sufficient or not. This Is recommended for the reason that under the present law, with salaries contingent upon fees, any officer under the best circumstances does not collect enough during his first year of office to meet his salary. CONTROLLED BY ADVISORY BOARDS. All per diem officers are provided for in the recommendation of Section 10 of the law concerning advisory boards, which thall be added to the law governing the county council. That section gives the advisory board full control of per diem allowances of township trustees, and it has been observed by the commission that the allowances under It have been materially reduced. Working so effectually in township business the commission thought the same results could be obtained relative to the per diem compensation of other county officers, such as county assessors, township assessors, county surveyors, county uperlntendents and the like by giving the county council full control over their compensation at the rate per diem as fixed by law. The commission will also recommend that the salary system of Justices of the peace and constables be extended to Jus tices ana consiaoies in townships containing titles or parts of cities of lO.ono population or more. Under the bill the com mission has drafted salaries will average from $00 for Justices of the peace and JöuO for constables In townships with a minimum population to $1.500 for Justices- of the peace and $1,000 for constables in townships of a maximum population. In addition the constables and the Justices of the peace will be allowed 5 per cent, of all fees collected by them. A more accurate and stringent method in reporting fees and collections has been devised. County officers and Justices of the peace and constables have heretofore collected a large amount of money under the taxation of their predecessors for which they have received no compensation. The commission will recommend that the county officers In addition to the 10 per cent, of their own fees collected be allowed 5 per cent, of their predece sors fees for the collection thereof, and that 5 per cent. be allowed their predecessors, and that the Justices of the peace and the constables be allowed 2 per cent, for the collection of the same class of fees. The full report of the commission, covering 350 pages and entering into a close analysU of the relation of the present salaries to fees collected and taxed, will appear next wek and be forwarded to the various members of the Legislature. County officers desiring a copy may procure one by sending their address to the secretary of the commission. The report will contain the bill herein summarized in full. Mra. Illnnclinrd's Denial.

The executive board of the United Mine Workers adjourned yesterday after a two days session. The general situation of the coal fields was reviewed, but nothing o public importance was transacted. The work was largely of a routine nature. Plans for the convention which meets in this city next January to adopt a wage scale for the coming year were discussed, but no definite Information was given to the public. It was not stated by any of the members whether an increase will be asked for, but bituminous coal has advanced materially since the present scale was adopted, an an increase In wages usually follows an advance in the price of coal. The miners secured n 22 per cent, increase at their convention last January, which is said to be covered by the price of coal at that time. The present' scale expires April 1, 1901.

There were four sudden deaths caused by rupture of blood vessels. There were no deaths from violence, self-inflicted or otherwise. There was one desperate attempt at suicide by stabbing with a pair of scissors, but the patient was unsuccessful. During the period there were no epidemics of contagious or infectious diseases. There was one case of measles, but the patient was isolated and an epidemic was prevented. A number of the able-bodied patients were given employment on the farm, thus reducing the cost of maintenance. The patients were furnished with amusements, auch as dances, theatricals and concerts. The cost of food for each day's board during the year was 12.6 cents. The eastern district, from which this hospital accepts patients, Includes the counties of Adams. Allen. Blackford, Delaware.

State Prison Report. The biennial report of the Indiana State Prison from Nov. 1, IK, to Oct. 31. 1900, of which a full synopsis was published in the Journal a few days ago, was filed with the Governor yesterday. FIGMAN KNOWS ANIMALS. One of Anna Held Company Offers Some Advice to Mnduute Morrelll. Max FIgman, who plays a dual role In "Papa's Wife," the entertaining and lavishly mounted musical comedy In which Anna Held 13 starring this season, also knows something about wild animals. Mr. FIgman was an Interested spectator of the acts of Captain Bonavlta and Madame Morrelll at Bostock's zoological gardens yesterday afternoon. After he had seen the exhibition he was discussing Its merits in the lobby of the Bates House in company with John Kernell, of the Behman show at the Park, and Charles A. Bigelow, Anna Held's principal comedian. "That act of Captain Bonavita's is very fine," said Mr. FIgman, "but I really think Madame Morrelll is in the greater danger during the time she is in the large arena with those jaguars and leopards. I think, however, the management, of the place could pattern after the Hagenbeck wild animal show in a way to make the madame and captain a little more safe while they are In the cage with those animals. At the Hagenbeck show when a trainer is In the arena with a lot of lions or other animals several Great Dane dogs are turned Into the cage and remain there all the time the exhibition is going on. Those dogs are so trained that If a lion makes an attack on his trainer they will at once Jump on to the Hon and distract his attention from the man. In addition to this safeguard a half dozen men are stationed at frequent intervals around the exhibition den, and these men are provided with long iron rods, the ends of which are kept at red heat. In case of a sudden attack on a trainer by his beasts the hot Irons are forthwith jabbed into the flesh of tho animal until he is glad to let go of the ntan. I think the trainers at the Indianapolis Zoo are a little too careless. I understand from Captain Bonavita that he is contemplating the great feat of training twenty-five Hons to go through certain tricks in the same cage. If he does this he will have beaten the record of the Hagenbeck trainers, for none of them has ever succeeded in handling as many as twentyfive lions ,at one time." Charles Blgelow declared he would not be in the position of either Captain Bonavita or Madame Morrelll even if the added precautions should be taken. NO SELECTION YET.
