AS TO BEST PLACE FOR THE LOCATION OP WOMEN'S JAIL. COUNTY BOARD OF CHARITIES Every Effort to Hava an Addition Made to Home for Priendless -Legal Point Involved. The members of the Wayne County Board of Charities met yesterday afternoon with the county eommis sioners and discussed the avisability and authority of the commissioners' to build a women's jail adjoining the Home for the Friendless. ' ' ' The commissioners are still in doubt as to whether the state laws give them power to take such action and are undetermined as to whether it would .be best to build a women's jail adjoining the Home for the Friendless or build an addition to the county jail. The members of the County Board of Charities pointed out to the commissioners that by placing women prisoners in the Home for the Friendless they would have the advantage of a better moral atmosphere. The trustees of the Home for the Friendless offer to deed the lot to the county on which the Home for the Friendless stands on the condition that a woman's jail be build adjoining the Home. It is in the power of the county to accept this land from me insuiuuon oui-me question ansas i-fi 11 M Ski A AO OA TBT Vl Vl A V " es il in such , a case wnetner xne Home would come under the control of the sheriff or the trustees of the institutiaon. County Attorney J. F., Robbins was before the board of commissioners yesterday and stated that he was not . certain that the law pave the commissioners power to build an addition to a building: belonging to a private corporation but that he had not made a thorough investigation; A" The commissioners seem to favor the building of a woman's depart ment to the county jail, which piobably could be done at less expense and with no risk from a legal standpoint. Architect Kaufman was be-; fore the commissioners yesterday j with plans for an addition to -the j county jail. They met the approval j of the commissioners and probably will be eccepted if the commissioners decide to enlarge the jail. Miss E. H. Robinson, secretary of the "Wayne County Board of Charities has written to the State Board of Charities setting forth the proposition made to the County Commissioners by the Home for the Friendless and asking for information as to the power of the commissioners to accept such an offer. Miss Robinson has received the following reply from State Secretary A. W. Butler which is self explanatory: ' Board of State Charities. Indianapolis. Miss E. H. Robinson, Secretary Wayne County Board of Charities. Dear Miss Robinson: -I took up the matter which . you referred to, with the Attorney General's office, and they gave ine a verbal opinion that the county , commissioners could accept the donation o land and construct such V jailbuilding adjoining the Home for' the Friendless, They were to have given me a written opinion on that point, which has notyet been received,, but on inquiry I. find that in some . way, the letter wafc written to the Auditor of Wayne County, substantially to that effect. ' . ; I believe that it is the correct view that your county would have the right to accept the land and build the jail for women adjoining the Home for the Friendless. I am sure it will be a matter of economy and a considerable saving of dollars and cents to the tax-payers. It would be too bad for Wayne Count', which YOUR BIG ARE WOT ALREADY USING OUR

ACCORDING TO STATEMENT OF MANAGER DILL OF J. M. HTJTTON COMPANY.

NO MORE "COFFIN SHAPED" Caskets Only Place They Can Be Sold is Among the Colored People of the South. There is style even in coffins and caskets, and according to Will Dill, manager of the J. M. Hutton Com pany, the present mode is entirely different from that which prevailed eight years ago, and tastes of dead people are as fickle as they are in life. Only a few years ago, the old "coffin-shaped" casket was in use and no other style was thought much of. The price was lower at that time too, and poor material could be covered with a little cloth and sold cheap. Now, much fancier "boxes" are the style and the oblong, narrow at-the bottom shape has to go. Round corners and carving are being deman ded and best material must be used. Prices are three times as high now and people are prying more attention to detail. Only among the colored neonle of the south can the oldstyle "coffin" be sold. The casket industry in Richmond has come to be one of the largest in the city and with three plants here whose daily output is something like 250 finished caskets, this city com pares favorably with Chicago and St Louis, where the largest factories are located.

question is now dead. 4 So much opposition to it has developed on account of the scarcity of labor," he

said "that there are no chances whatever for any legislation on that question." Watson is of the opinion that the Senate will pass the Philippine tar iff bill, the statehood bill, the urgent deficiency appropriation bill, which includes the Panama canal appropriation, and the railroad rate bill, and, he says, these bills may hold the sen ate for at least four months. There are a good many Senators, he says, who are not ready to vote on these questions just now, and will not be ready for some time. When asked concerning the report ed probable retaliatory tariff legis lation against Germany, Mr. Watson said he believed there would be no more tariff legislation other than the Philippine bill, at the present session of Congress. . Mr. Watson, as soon as he returns to Washington, will introduce three bills that, as he expressed it, "will rap the tobacco trust to a finish. "Mr. Watson refuses to disclose the nature of these bills, but he says they are good bills, and are sure to pass in both Houses. Mr. Watson will speak at Marion Tuesday, February 13, before the In diana Lincoln League. He has declined invitations to deliver Lincoln day addresses before the Lincoln League at Grand Rapids, Mich., the Middlesex Club, of Boston, and clubs at Portland, Me., and Lincoln, Neb. He is favor of an early adjournment of Consrress and is making an effort to have May 15 fixed upon as the end of the present session, Mr. Watson knows of no reason why Congress can not get through with its work by that time. He is close touch with a majority of the mem- . bers of the House. His yiews reflect their views on many questions. Practically, all of the members of the House . favor an early adjournment. . If opposition to May 15 as the day for adjournment develops itf will come from the Senate. MANY ARE SKATING On the River, Lake and Small Ponds About the City. 1 1 Many bojs, and a few girls last evening skated to their heart's content at Glen Miller, the river and the various ice ponds in and about the city. The sport was good as the ice, has frozen to a depth of several inches. There were hockey games galore and the darkness did not detract from the pastime one bit. If the present weather continues the skat ing places will be black with children REASON NOT KNOWN. Governor Hanly has not made known his reason for asking the amount of Council's appropriations during the past year, but when asked regarding his request, Gov. Hanly said, "I want them for the benefit of the executive department." TEN-YEAR-OLD ARGONAUT Boy Runs After a Train to Get Back His Gold Piece. . Pottsville, Pa., Feb. 7.
