CHti of the Inmates.
BALEM, Mar 26. The Oregon State Re
form School Is becoming more and more
an Industrial Institution. With each suc
ceeding year a greater effort Is made to
teach the boys -who are committed to the
school useful occupations by which, they
may cam honest livings when they have
been paroled. To this end each boy is
kept In school half of each day, and. 5s
required to labor on the farm. In the
shops or about the buildings the other
half. The number of Inmates of the
school. 113, makes It convenient to divide
the boys Into two classes, one for work
and the other for study, as the number
engaged In each occupation can be regu
lated so as to meet the needs of the dif
ferent departments.
The Oregon State Reform School was
opened for the reception of boys Novem
ber 5. 1S3L and on the following day the
first boy was received- At the close of
that year 20 boys had been received, and
from this number the enrollment has
gradually Increased, until the highest en
rollment, 1S7. was reached In 1897. "With
the Increase In the attendance a more
perfect system became possible, until now
the school Is organized into departments
that work in entire unison. The educa
tional department has the entire school
in charge each day. but only half of It
at a time. There are two teachers, rook
ing about 53 boys to each teacher, or 23
In charge of each teacher all the time.
As the boys are of all ages."&t,all stages
of education, and of all degrees of In
telligence, the school is necessarily un
graded and each boy Is permitted to make
progress as rapidly as he can, and will,
regardless of the advancement made by
the other boys in his class, and independ
ently of any rigid course of study. All
the common school branches are taught-
But while two Reform School officials
are engaged m teaching one-half of the
boys, the knowledge learned from books,
10 other officials are working with the
other half as they gain Instruction regard
ing every-day, practical work. These
other officials are the farmer, engineer,
tailoress, laundress, carpenter shoemak
er, cook, dining-room superintendent,
housekeeper and seamstress. Each of
these officials is given charge of a de
tail of boys each morning and after
noon, and the boys are employed In the
work Indicated by the title of the offi
cials. Where the Boys "Work.
At this season of the year the farmer
Is given a detail of 18 boys, nine in each
half-day. The Institution has a farm of
COO acres, about half of which is under
cultivation. The land under cultivation
is sowed principally to grain and hay,
but there are large gardens and orchards
that supply the school with vegetables and
fruit. Under the supervision and with the
assistance of the farmer, the boys do all
the farm and garden work, and learn all
the details of caring for the farm and
farm machinery and stock. They are
taught the art of planting, pruning and
spraying fruit trees and how to care for
all kinds of crops. f
The shoemaker has a. detail of 12 boys.
All the shoes worn by the Reform School
bojs are made entirely at the Institution,
and are made principally by the boys
themselves. Two styles of shoes are
made brogans, for everyday wear, and
"'.Sunday shoes," for special occasions.
Some of the boys become very proficient
with the cobbling tools, and turn out
work that would grace the display win
dows of a shoe store. One boy is able
to turn out four pairs of shoes per day,
beginning with nothing prepared for blm.
While one of the principal objects of this
department is to furnish a useful occu
pation for the boys, it is found that when
the entire expense of the department is
taken into consideration the cost of shoes
is reduced 40 per cent by their being made
at the school.
The tailoress has charge of 12 boys, who
are engaged in making the clothing for
the Inmates of the school. They make
ell the underclothing, uniforms and caps.
A mending department Is also main
tained, and in this the boys learn to patch,
darn and otherwise repair garments.
The engineer's department has, besides
the heating apparatus, an electric light
plant, a water-power pump, portable en
gine for wood sawing, and steam laundry
machinery. Ight boys are detailed to
this department, and are taught the
management and care of the machinery
as well as the work of plumbing. One
of the early "graduates" of this depart
ment Is now an engineer In Portland, and
is earning a good living. He recently paid
a visit to the institution, and spent the
day around the buildings before revealing
his Identity. Just before departing he
told the superintendent, much to the lat
ter's astonishment, that he was a "grad
uae" of the Reform School. He said he
learned his trade there, that he had bsen
reformed, and did not care who knew the
name of his "alma mater."
In the kitchen.
that Is usual-
dlEhwashlng to
the baking of all kinds of bread and cake.
As thero are so many persons to prepare
food for, the boys learn all the methods
that must be employed by professional
cooks.
Thero Is one negro boy who waits on
the table of the superintendent of the
school. While a visitor's first Impression
is that a negro waiter Is a luxury out
of place in a state institution, on sec
ond thought It is evident that the negro
Is getting a training which will fit him
for a paying position when he shall have
been discharged from the school. Such
is the object of his being thus emplojed.
and If he does not learn to do his work
well he can blame no one but himself.

method la everything. They are called
early In the morning at half past 5 or G
and after dressing are marched to the
washroom, and from there to the break
fast table. Each boy knows his place,
and ttop3 behind his chair. At given
signals they eeat themselves at the table,
and TAlth bowed heads repeat In unison a
very pretty prayer of thanks for dllne
favor and supplication for divine guid
ance. After breakfast, which consists of
plain but substantial food, the boya are
assigned to the various details, and are
taken In charge by the various officers
under whom they are to work. When an
officer takes charge of a detail of boys
he gives, a receipt for them and gets a re
ceipt when he turns the boys in at the
end of the day's work. All boye not
otherwise employed are taken In charge
by the family manager. It is a rule of
the institution to permit no boy to be Idle
or to have any opportunity to cultivate
bad habits. It 1s presumed that the boys
at the school are the most Incorrigible and
vicious of any in the state. They have
been cent there because it has been found
impracticable and unsafe for the commu
nity that they be kept at home, and while
they cannot be confined like criminals,
they must be closely watched at all times.
Coming, as most of them do. from families
In which Industry and morality are at a
low ebb, they are In no condition to take
readily to study or to useful occupations.
To transform them and make of them
intelligent and ambitious young men ie the
duty -nhlch the state owes to them. and
to fulfill this duty it is necessary to have
a sufficient number of employes and teach
ers to keep them busy. There are 16 em

CORVALLIS, May 20. The right of the Oregon Agricultural College basket ball team to
tho title, "Champions of Oregon." has been well earned and Is Justly merited. Organized
three years ago, the team, -which still contains some of its original members, has never met
defeat. Its record has been remarkable, under the direction of Coach Beach. Etery individ
ual player Is a star, and their team work is phenomenal. Haing easily defeated all aspir
ing college clubs this season, a came -aa arranged with the ladles of the T. M. C A., of"
Portland. The contest was a beautiful one, and resulted in a ictory for tha Oregon Agri
corded it will be seen that of the 34S boys
committed to the school only 94 had both
parents living together at the time re
ceived here; that Is. in those 34 cases the
records say both parents were living, and
nothing else, so they were presumably to
gether. The character of tho homes
which they provided for their children can
not be ascertained, and can only be sur
mised, which Is an easy matter In many
Instances, though In eoraa cases the home
seemed to be blameless and to be con
ducive to good behavior. The other fig
ures in the table tell their own story,
and none so sad or prolific In evil conse
quences to the youth as the record which
shows the parents of W of these chldren
to be either divorced or separated, chief
ly the former. Following is the family
record of all the pupils:

It often occurs that two or more mem
bers of the fame family will be commit
ted to the Reform SchopL though It Is
not common, to have more than one mem
ber of a family in tho school at the same
time. At present the register shows that
there are four pairs of brothers In the
school.
Superintendent Bickers has recently re
ceived a number of letters asking whether
arrangements cannot be made to receive
incorrigible plrls at the school. As It would
not be practicable to care for glrle'in the
Reform School, the Inquiries are Invari
ably answered In the negative. It has
been suggested that incorrigible grls

The appropriations for the school are
made biennially and cover a period of two
years. The appropriations for the sir
years ending with December 31, 1900, are
as follows:
1S93-1S26 $73.00 00
1K97-1S9S C3 277 22
1E99-1900 25.500 00
The appropriation for 1S35-9S Included
expenses of repairs, as also does tho ap
propriation for 1S59-1900. It is estimated
that there will be a deficiency of $12,000 In
the present term of two years. The ap
propriation was cut down almost one-half
by the last Legislature, and the board of
trustees have found It impossible to run
the institution on the amount appropri
ated. The appropriation bill contained a
provision that no deficiency should be cre
ated, but as the school must be operated,
it Is expected that the next Legislature
will be asked to appropriate money to
cover a deficiency in the Reform School
account.
The officials of the Reform School find it
necessary to employ various methods to
prevent the boys from running away. As
a precaution against their escaping at
night their clothes are locked In one room
while they sleep In another. The- boys
march to tho clothes-room, undress, and
then march to their beds. They all kneel
by their beds, repeat a prayer, and slip
In between the bed covers, all In accord
ance with signals. As soon as they are In
bed they are supposed to be asleep and
not a word of conversation Is permitted.
A devise that Is used in the case of boys
who show a disposition to run away. Is
the "Oregon boot." This "boot" is made of
iron and rcveted about the ankle of a
boy who has given trouble in attempts
to escape. The "boot" weighs 7U pounds,
and cannot be removed without the ue of
good Iron-cutting tools. Only two of these
boots arc now In use.
oNt many of the boys manifest a deslro
to escape. Most of them have a better
home than they did before they came to
the Institution, and, while they are re
quired to keep busy, they are not over
worked. Many a boy. upon receiving his
parole, has shed tears as he stood upon
the station platform and thought of leav
ing his Reform School friends and as
sociations. There is one boy at the school
now who has earned credits- enough to
give him a paro.e, but he lacks two years
of serving his time. He refuses to take
advantage of the credits be has earned
by good? behavior, but Insists upon re
maining in the school the remainder of
his time.
What Becomes of Them.
What becomes of the boys who "grad
uate" from the Reform School is an im
portant question to the people who con
tribute towards the support of the institu
tion. Upon the answer to this question
depends the value of the school. If it is
accomplishing the work for which It was
instituted and is making good citizens af
boys who were on the verge of a life of
crime, the people will make no comp aint.
The information upon this point is gath
ered from that portion of the last bien
nial report, which says:
"Of the boys who succeeded in escaping
from the school, and these whose bad
conduct necessitated their Teturn to the
counties pending them, six have since
been convicted of crimes which caused
I their Incarceration In penltentarles, one
of them being sentenced to serve 40 years.
Of these and other former Inmates of the
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
school, 24 have attained the age of 21
3 ears, one was killed by accident since his
parole, and six have become soldiers in the
armies of the United States, while a
number have been taken by their parents
In other states.
"I. am pleated to state-that the remain
ing bojs who are out on parole are, as a
rule, doing w ell. By far tlie greater num
ber are either at their own homes, llvlnc
an orderly life, or are working for good,,
respectable families, where they have an
opportunity of earning something, of get
ting an education, of learning a trade and
of making themselves product.ve and
useful citizens. The reports received from '
them are In the main very satisfactory."
While the Reform School boys are kept
busy at all times, they are not always at
nork or study. They have a good ball
ground near the building and are allowed
a half holiday once a week to devote to
outdoor sports. The school also has a
good readlng-rcom supplied with periodi
cals, donated by the public or furnished
by the state. A library has been started
In connection with the reading-room, but
as jet numbers but 200 volumes. The i
boys have access to the reading-room
Sunday afternoons and evenings and near-
ly all of them Improve their opportunities
to the best advantage.
Once every week the boys are given a
bath, this operation being performed on
all of them at once. Tfcey strip off their J
clothing and march into a large room
having a cement floor. By means of
pipes overhead a heavy shower of water
Is thrown upon them until they have I
washed themselves clean. When they
march out of the bathroom they find clean
clothes awaiting hem and with these
donned they Justly feel that they have a
quality close kin to godliness.
RelSgous exercises are held regularly
at the Reform School. Preaching serv.ces
are held every Sunday either in the morn

in Germany. The calm and Intelligent
uerman mind la accordingly now Dusy
Rlth investigations, upon the results of
which plans can be based for preserving
a healthy equilibrium between consump
tlon and production, and thus protecting J
Industries In which millions of Germans
have a vital Interest.
The questions, . therefore, which Ger
mans are .now considering are these:
Th,ere Is a large overproduction of sugar
In Germany, which at present makes ex
portation an absolute necessity. Will
natural causes maintain this foreign 'de
mand for German sugar, and can Ger
many's overproduction be decreased by
Increasing the conyamption of sugar at
hoJne?
The use of sugar began in the Orient
and gradually spread to Europe and
America. The quantity used, per capita
is constantly and everywhere increasing.
as Is shown by tho following table:

Owing to the growth of the sugar-using
population, the total Increase in the 1
amount consumed is much larger than Is
indicated by the gain per-capita.

by the following table:

emergencies which may arise. It is a!
ways possible that the foreign demand for
German sugar may be lessened by in
creased production abroad by measures
growing out of International customs
wars and by other unforeseen causes.
Furthermore, the amount of s'ugar which
most be exported may be. Increased by
the extension of beet culture in Germany.
The protection of this great industry and
of the people dependent upon It therefore
demands a large increase in the home
consumption. The table given, above
shows that the amount of sugar usad in
Germany per capita is rapidly growing,
but It Is realised that this growth must
"be encouraged and largely accelerated.
This can be done in two ways namely, by
increasing the manufacture and exporta
tion of consercs, marmalades, etc. and j
by IncreaiAng the amount of sugar used ,
by individuals, especially in the army.
whero increased consumption may be J
made compulsory. The question of In-
1 crcasing tne manufacture of conserves Is
j a p,ctiCal one. which does not require
consideration here.
I But before raising the amount of sugar
, t0 be used b Indlviduals German sclen-
1 UsU "avc investigated the question as to
whether this can safely be done. They
have decided that the amount of sugar
used by individuals can be increased with
out hesitation, as sugar has many valu
able characteristics. Its value lies not
alone In. Its sweetness, hut In the fact
that it Is a valuable dietetic remedy and
an excellent article of food. Sugar is a
very easily soluble carbon hydrate, and a?
such Is quickly assimilated ln human, and
animal bodies, producing warmth and
force. It is also fattening, and can bo
used as a mast. As a. developer of
strength. It has long beeu used, especially
by mountain-climbers. Various experi
ments have been made for the purpose
of ascertaining whether sugar can be
aivantagcously used for fattening ani
mals. The results have proved favorable
so far as hogs are concerned. It has
been found that by-products of sugar fab
rication, denaturalized and free of tax.
can -bo advantageously uj'ed as food for
hogs. Molasses, which contains, about SO
per cent of sugar, is already much used,
mixed with palm flour ar peat, as cattle
food.
The principal object of- the experiments,
has, however, been to ascertala positively
whether, as alleged, sugar possesses the
power of quickly increasing or restoring
strength, and thereby making men fit for
"unu0ual exertion. This point has been
carefully investigated, the scientist not
watching the entire muscular action of a
man. because that would have been too
difficult, hut confining himself to observ
ing a single finger through an Instrument
called an ergogcaph i. e.. "work-measurer."
Ho allowed the middle finger of tha
right hand to lift a weight, and then, reg
istered the degree of the lifting force.
The experimenter found that after sugar
, had been eaten the lifting force was
1 stronger than before, and he therefore
concluded that sugar is a strength-pro-jducing
material. Other Investigators
claim, however, that sugar, has merely as
exciting effect through its sweet taste,
and that a dulcine sotutlon, which con
tains no carbon hydrate, and accordingly
cannot be nourishing, has the same effect
as sugar water. The inference from this
Is that the assertion that sugar produce
strength is a fallacy.
This disappointing experiment has. how
ever, been repeated by two scientists, and
the same result was reached when the
man experimented upon had his full
strength; but the effect of eating sugar
was found to be entirely different when
the man had first tired himself by turn
Ing a heavy wheel (ergostat). The eat
ing of sugar brought to the exhausted
man new strength, and the ergograph
registered Increased force, which was not
tho case when dulcine was eaten. It Is
accordingly accepted in Germany as sat
isfactorily proven that sugar can renew
tho strength of a wearied man through
giving hia tired muscles carbon hydrate
as a strengthening material. Extensive
experiments have since 1S9S been made
upon German soldiers at the maneuvers.
with moderate success. It Is believed that
by eating half a dozen cubes of imgar
more than usual In a day a soldier's pow
er of endurance is Increased. The Ger
man, at any rate, think It worth while
to continue the experiment, for he pur
pose of ascertaining positively whether
sugar can givo renewed strength- to ex
hausted troops, thereby increasing their
value In moments of emergency.
If In these ways the domestic consump
tion of sugar can bo enlarged, the over
production Mil be lessened, and it is hoped
tljat thus beet culture and the sugar In
dustry will continue to be of great value
to Germany in the future.
