reflect upon the managers OF the Insane Asy-

ion Mrs. Pennell is an unmitigated nuisance.
However, her incarceration in the Asylum
gave Hi Morrell and lot of other fellows
chance to abuse the State government and
the officers of the Insane Asylum, and we
suppose they might as well expend their phi
lanthropy in that way as any. Such talk Is
harmless and doesn't cost q cent.
