Inspected Conditions at the State Penitentiary. Professor E. H. S. Bailey accompanied the commission recently appointed by Governor Hoch to make investigations at the penitentiary. This week an examination was made of sanitary conditions, especially of the heating, ventilation, and food supply. The air in the prison cells was examined after the prisoners had left in the morning, and it was found to be nearly of as good quality as the the air outside. One day was spent in examining the mines, and samples of air were tested. The results showed that, for mine air, the atmosphere was considerably above the average both in the main passages and in the places where the men actually work. The food store-house, kitchens, and dining rooms were inspected, and the warden furnished a list showing the total amount and varieties of food consumed during the entire year. As for the quality of the food, it was found to be above the average of food for men in ordinary condition. The nutritive value of the food was also found to be high. The results altogether showed the food to be satisfactory both in quality and quantity. KANSAS OIL THIRD. Professor Bushong is Working on Oil Products.
