Dials" Room,
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Dec. .-(Speclal.)-One big
base ball fan is wasting his enthusiasm
before a very unappreclatlve audience and
there seems no help for it, unless 1'a
Hourke and the rest of the magnates g?t
busy for him. Ills name Is Boynanovlc and
he Is a convict In the state penitentiary.
According to the monthly report of War
den T. W. Smith, this man has been pun
ished for twenty-two hours "at the bar"
for laughing at everything that comes up
and "throwing a piece of turnip around
the dining room and acting as though he
was playing a game of base ball."
Another convict named Reynolds sent to
the bars for taelve hours for being Inso
lent when he waa ordered to do his work
right.
The rerort of the warden shows that on
November i there were 431 convicts In the
prison and now there are 43ti. Ten wera
discharged during the. month, 11 paroled,
24 committed, 1 returned from parole and
1 recommitted.

Record of Expenditures So Far Soei
Not Presage Good Showing
for Administration.
(From a Staff Correspondent)
, LINCOLN, Dec. 4. (Special.) The condi
tion of the maintenance funds of the va
rious state institutions at the beginning of
winter, after running seven months on the
new appropriations. Indicates that unless
the heads of the Institutions do some re
trenching there will be a great big deficit
at the end of the blennium. In all but a
few of the Institutions the superintendents
have exceeded the allowance for this period.
In some Instances at the present rate the
deficit will be large.
The biggest deficits will be at tha Lin
coln asylum, the two soldiers' homes, the
penitentiary and the state public schools.
The heads of the Institutions have carried
their charges through only the summer
months, so It is probable the deficit at the
end of the winter months will be much
larger than now, as the expenses will be
much heavier. The following table shows
the appropriations for tha maintenance of
the Institutions and the total amount spent
out of that fund for the last seven months:
