Johnstone, secretary of tbe state board of charities and correc tions, is. one of the unique exhibits ih the" state building of tho fair. Thc board's: investigations bhowed that tito tents and , cages la which tho county ckalngangs aro now housed aro not ouly expensive but unsatisfactory and that county supervisors want some thing better. That thia now design is a piece of constructive sorvtcc on the part of the state board of charities aud correc tions in trnown ny the fact that Super visor WHlimon of Qrcenvillo county haB already ordered ono built undor the personal direction of the board's secretary and that Superviiors Ver non of Spartanburg, Humbert of Laurens, and Patterson of Richland nie planning to visit tho new camp as soon as completed! with a view to put ting in similar quarters as needed if these prove as satisfactory as seems likely. The camps, throughout tho state, talt on as a whole, consist ot cages, cars or tent j. Overcrowding is tho gcuernl rule, tho bcd3 aro ordinarily pallets of blankets plus, not infrequency, straw ticks, on rough boards, on the floor, or on suspended plans, with sometimes iron beds. The blankets are washed and aired not oftener than onco a month, ordinarily. If that often, and are sprayed several times a month with oily disinfectants. Tho prison ers sleep in the same clothes that they work in which aro changed once a week at the time of the weekly bath. Where tenta are.used, they aro not flopreU. Therefore, during tho month,' or for a longor period; thoro Ir a steady aocmmulatlon of porspi ra tion, disinfectant, dust and <Hrt, not to say other things, tho bedding re maining unaired in tho meantlmo. Moreover, tho pallets are; generally contiguous so that tho prisoners en tor them by tho foot. The ventila tion of tho quarters is poor, direct sunlight to the interior very limited, and room for recreation during bad weather almost none .except lounging aound on the .beds themselves. Tho tents, especially, aro damn. In 'bad weather, mildew, rot and must ho replaced about evtery eighteen months or oftener. j It was to remedy these conditions j tliat thia new camp has been dcslgn I ed. It can.be taken apart, put on wa sons and moved. It ls floored, weath er boarded up five feet, screened with 14 mesh black wire (fly proof) and ins a continuous opening all around the four sides 29 inches high for win dow sash to contain six lights 10 by 12 inches each? It is covered with tar paper. The roof is in soctlonB, being put together with a water, tight "Joifit bver^tho'^^s.^ The'windows are all barred ' with 1-inch black iron pipe, four of them which mn from out side to outside of the building and serve to tie lt together as well aa further .'the safe-keeping of the pris oners. A fifth iron pipe of same size and for thu same purpose servos as a support for the beds which aro so attached that it makes a hinge, per mitting tho turning of the hods up against the wall. In this way the entire room m available l'or recreation and comfort- during v bad weather..

Carefully ascertained prices.on ma terials Indicate that the camp as. above described, 17 by 42.feet.(inside,, accommodating 22 prisoners and giv ing to each a bed 18 inches from the floor, 2 1-2 feet wido by e 1-2 feet long, - separated* from those cn each sido of him by 12 luches "and aero.-j tho aisle,by four feet, can be built for $275.00, exclusivo of labor The quarters may be enlarged cr decreas ed by the Insertion or. removal of sec tions.'

Greenville, Oct. 2C-That tho city of Greenville can institute condcmna tlon proceedings for the ult?male pur ?hbo? of tho Paris Mou u iain Tvuiur company was thc effect of thc decree today issued hy Judge Memmlnger, who sustained the demurrer of tho city, dismissed the complaint of the Paris Mountain Water company and ordered the temporary restraint dio solvcd. Tho action brought by tho Paris Mountain Water company to se cure an injunction restraining thc city of Greenville from Instituting condem nation proccedlngo was heard before Judge Memmlnger in tho court of, common pleas here last Wednesday. Sinco that time Judge Memmlnger had given the questions involved tho most careful study. The decree h?nded down today, lu eloven typewritten page3, covers the case to tlie satisfaction of tho attor neys, though Judge Memmlnger stat ed that it would require a volume to explain tho various phases of the de ere*? intelligently to the public. Tho three main grounds upon which Judgo Memmlnger .bru;cd his decision were, first, that tho city is not bound at th ir, nt age to prove how It will raine thc money for tho pur cbnao of Jthe Waterworks. Second, that in any event there ls no constitutional limitation to bonded indebtedness When the proceeds are used to buy Waterworks. Next, that tho statutc3 assailed aro constitutional and valid and givo thc city full power to proceed and con demn thc waterworks. If there are no further lognl de velopments to' obstruct tho city in Its plans, condemnation proceedings will bo instituted and tho price of tho waterworks fixed by a Jury. . Truth About the Flea. (New York Press.) To tho searching oye of science nothing is sacred. Now the depart ment ol' agriculture is undertaking to prove that oven; tho flea ls not -tho all-round athlete 'ire is - usually con sidered. - ' ' The story of our youth, that If a flea wero' ?s big as a man ho could go from New York' to San Francisco in throe Jumps Is Of a piece with the grohudhog day story the authorities would have us believe. The longest lump which a yutcx irritan;;, which is department of- ; agriculture for "human" flca:, has ?oven boen known to make is 13 Inches, ir tho fica wore as big as a maa ho could jump from the battery to Wall street, or thereabouts, ' but cia/further. More over In ; making this jump ho would barely clear tho top of tho Whitehall building. For the highest vertical jump pulex irritant has made Is elxrht and one-half-Inches. So fall tho fairy taloa of yosth. So dees in exorable science tear ' the rosy veil from life and expose it in its naked drab. One >may. ask why. tho.department of agriculture should take thia sud den interest in fleas; Because tho department is interested in tho abil ity of the flea to carry the germs ot plague.
