Some influential ladies OF Brooklyn have
formed a society TO establish n retreat for
women suffering under mild attacks Of insanity.
They expect. by improved methods OF treat
mcnt and cheerful surroundings. to effect a
larger proportion Of cures than has heretofore
been attained. 1t is urged in favor of such II
home that public asyums for the insane are
ovcrcrowdcd and msmanaRcd. and that private
retreats arc expensive and often conducted
merely for the profit they bring to their owners.
This Is unqucsionably true There are con-
tinual complaints Of cruelty 10 patients in both
our public and private asylums; OF insufficient
food Of the huddling Of the dcmcnicd In poorly
ventilated rooms; Of scanty clothing; OF cheer
less occupations and a lack Of diversion. The
proportion Of cures indicates that something IL
wrong in our methods. In English asylums
last year this proportion was forty Ave out Il a
hundred. In Flathush asylum 1t was ten and
two-thirds. English experts say that where
moro than two hundred patients are confined
in a building. an air Of insanity Is created. and
the proportion of cures decreases MS the num-
Der of inmates increases. Last year one thou

Illustrates the Piano War by n Dog
story, and Gives the Bottom Facts.
Last week at the Tombs court, New
York city, before Judge Duffy, two claim
ants appeared for and with handsome
Newfoundland dog. AS neither had any
corroborative evidence, the astute judge
decided that the instinct Of the dog himself
would be the surest test of ownership. A
policeman was ordered to hold the dog in
the center Of the court room, while one
claimant was placed on one side of the
room, the other on the opposite side. Both
were ordered to whistle for the dog at
signal from the judge, the dog to be re-
leased at the same time, and choose between
the claimants.
The Judge called time each claimant
whistled to the best of his ability. Police
man lot go the dog; but the dog, after
looking at the judge and surveying the
scene, escaped through the door, and
sought elsewhere its rightful owner.
A similar scene has been enacted for the
past two weeks among the piano men. A
couple Of piano-forte manutacturers-both
honorable men-hsve been whistling their
respective centennial awards through the
public press, with about as much success
as the claimants had with the dog.
The prize belongs elsewhere.
Stripped, then, of all verbiage, subter-
fuge, elimination and recrimination, law
suits, and all side issues simply intended to
befog the public, the naked facts as to the
centennial awards are just these:
Most of the leading manufacturers re-
ceived nearly the same recognition in re-
gard to workmanship. Durability the
commission could only guess at. The
only real distinction was made by the jury
as to the TONE of the pianos exhibited.
The piano, violin, and every other musi-
cal instrument is valued and purchased
for Its
TONE.
Thus, then, the Baltomore house is gwen
an award for general excellence in the
power of tone" to which the commission
added singing quality.
The New York house for "largest vol
ume, purity and duration of tone"
Whereas to WEBER is awarded "sympa.
thetic, pure, and rich tone, combined with
greatest power"
Comment as to which is the highest
award would be an insult to the intelligent
musical public.
Let them be the judges as to who Is the
rightful owner of the centennial prize.
Suffice 1t to say that the Weber award
contains all that is possible in piano-forte
-"sympathy, purity, richness, and great
est power"
In short, a soul in piano. A. WEBER.
