Penitentiary in .
Illinois to Be '
: v Model Prison
.Newest Methods of Construe
' - tion and Sanitation Used
In Institution, Which ,
Covers 64 Acres.
. Joiier, 111., Dec. 3.-The new Illi
nois state penitentiary, a walled city
of concrete and brick, is on the final
lap of construction, and those in
charge now figure that within five
years the penal institution will be en
tirely completed.
The new prison is located at
Statesville, near Joliet, and has been
viewed by officials of seven Euro
pean nations, as well as governors
and wardens from practically every
tate in the union. .
The prison wall incloses 64 acres,
flje walls, an innovation in cement
construction, loom up feet in
height and extend into the ground
from 10 to 20 feet. They cannot
be scaled, if is figured, as there arc
no ledges at the top where hooks or
ropes can be fastened. The smooth,
gently-sloping sides afford no
chances for footholds.
When completed there will be
eight ' cell houses, circular in' con
struction. Two cell houses will be
for the "less criminal" and four for
thofe who are under regular prison
discipline. ' -.
Use Brick and Concrete.'
i Henry M. Tomlinson, superin
tendent of construction, was con
fronted with a unique problem when
he started the building of the sec
ond cell bouse. The specifications
called for brick walls, with white
brick facing. Cost of materials and
labor has advanced so far beyond
tne state allotment lor tne work mat
after considerable experimentation it
was decided to pour concrete be
tween two walls of brick. This
saved 2.000,000 brick and, alto
gether, cost one-half the amount fii
r.rcd for solid brick construction. All
of the other cell houses are being
buih along the concrctc-brick plans.
The prison building proper is in
the center of the prison yard and is
laid out in a circular fashion, with
the dining room in the center and the
cell houses circling around it. The.
cell houses will be connected to the
central dining room by means of
one-story corridors with basements,
..making the plans resemble a petalcd
flower, with the dining ball as its
center.
Surpass Hotel Rooms.
The cells surpass in appointments
the rooms of many hotels, each hav
ing a lavatory, with ho.t and cold
running water, , toilet,, an.; outside j
window, a . steel bed, with, ample
.clean bedding,, a table and enameled
walls. v a iijj -
. In the center of the prison yard is
ft tower with an underground en
Jrance., From ; the platform in the
lower the guard can look in every
tell. He can open. a single cell door
pr all of them' from his station and
can switch on one light or all lights
from the same switchboard. ,
If the inmate is suspected of any
Irregularity his cell can be illumiti
Ited instantly from the eemral
tower, and if some of the prisoners
get in possession of firea,rtns and
open fire on the guard, a,-steel shut
ter can be instantly dropped.
Own Wate'system.
The prison hai" its own water sys
tem, supplied,. Ky two artesian wells.
VoA'shf)PSr and a hospital at present
are under construction. Before
plans i were finally drawn, W. Carius
Zimmerman, former state architect,
made an extensive tour of Europe,
visiting ancient and modern pris
ons. The "solitary," known in the old
firison as "the black hole," is entire
y different in design and object of
ast endeavors. Silence is the pun
ishment meted out for infractions of
rules, attempts to escape and other
deviations from rules which draw
sentences . for the convicts. ' In the
new solitary there is ventilation, but
the walls inside and out are abso-
ltt.Kr eMm1nmrtf Nnt a cnnnrl
can be heard within that little build
ing. There is a cork linoleum floor
cork walls and an ingenious window
shutter which keeps out noise.' .
When using the fireless cooker,
use metal radiators for quick baking
nd the soapstone for slower burn
ing. .' '

Hen on Nest Stripped of
Flesh by Lightning Bolt
Winchester, Vs., Dec. 3. A mar
velous freak was reported by Mrs.
Coleman Lyne.'who declared that af
ter lighting had struck a small pear
tree near her chicken yard she went
out to look after. a hen whose eggs
were soon to Jiatch. bhc found the
lightning .had run down the fence
a short distance to the nest, and there
was the skeleton of the hen in the ex
act position in which she had been set
upon the nest.
The bones were as clean as if they
had been scraped, and the meat and
feathers lay nearby, not even scratch
ed. None of the eggs had been
cracked, but on close ' inspection a
small hole was found in' the end of
each, and the inside of the shell burn
ed out as clean' as a new' pin.
'100 Per Cent Pure' Husband
Had Five Wives; She Says
Los Angeles, Dec. 3. Prior to his
marriage, I-sador A. Friedlander held

vorce filed here. Also she. claims
that her husband had a habit of
trying to live on credit and that most
of her callers during her married life
were bill collectors.
