HAZEL KIRKE" TONIGHT.
"Hearts OF Oak" Gone-"Esmeralda'
Coming.

Tonight the Madison Square Company
will present Hazel Krke" to one of the
best audiences of the season. The pheuom-
email success of this comedy drama in every
part OF the country proves inconteStl5ly
that the public will patronize wholesome
amusements, and encourage honest artistic
endeavor Hazel Kirke has never ceased TO
elicit applause and to moisten eyes not Gus
tomarily humid by its humor and pathos.
There is vein OF truth and good moral
motive running through the drama that
makes those who 60 to see it feel as though
they had not wasted time in the play
house. Men and women, aye, and young
people too, are the better for an evening
with Hazel Kirke; and when they go home,
the memory Of the love, sorrow, disobe-
dience, fidelity and overstrained princi.
pie, so skillfully woven in the texture OF
the story, clings to them, and gives them
food for reflection that cannot be other
than fraught with good results. Would
that there were more plays like Hazel
Kirke, for a man will gladly patronize q
dramatic production to which he can take
his wife and daughter, confident that be.
sides being amused. they will he benefited.
No one who has seen Hazel Kirke can ques-
ton the statements made The entire
American people have endorsed them al
ready, and Hazel Kirke is now looked upon
as one OF the andard plays OF the day.

they struck still out. The Executive Com
mittee and the Mill Committee had con-
ference with the employers on Saturday
afternoon. The firm showed that the pud-
dler, who had been discharged for incom.
retent work, had been given the furnace
on trial and had failed TO give satisfaction.
Upon this explanation it was resolved to
resume work, the firm consenting to make
certain notifications in their manner OF
testing iron. II this last is compared with
future troubles of like kind, which caused
the present strike, will be avoided as the
men uniformly claim that the stock"
which they must work up will not give an
average grade, which the severe tests used
heretofore have proven.

"E$meralda," which will be here next
Mon day and Tuesday, is dainty drama of
domestic interest. with a peep at life in
Paris, and the dual attraction Of a love
plot proper and the minor love passages
between Norah Desmond and Estabrook.
Happily blending character sketches with
healthy sentiment, and surrounding the
persons OF the drama with objects Of art
and refinement, its authors have contrived
to suit all tastes and make their play please
both gentle and simple. The plot is one Of
the fiimsiest texture, and no difficulty is
found in following it from the early alice
ton Of Esmeralda for Dave TO the happy
denouementin which the ambitious mother
and the titled a6venturer come after grief,
while the good are rewarded and merit
meets its need 1t is beautifully put upon
the stage especially the studio set which
is lesson in aesthetic apartment decora-
ton, and almost begets a spirit Of coYet-
business in the spectator.

CARING FOR THE MAD.


In reviewing the history of the treatment Of
the insane DR.. Rogers says that it is shown that
they were first cared for in private domiciles.
Later, monastio institutions assumed their care,
as is done in some localities at even the present
day III remote corners of Europe, and again
many were placed in jais and prisons, some
are now, even in Indiana. The history of the
Bethlehem Hospital, in London, of which more
is known to the English student than of any
other, is history of the Warehouses; of two or
three centuries ago. Its gradual development
in the course of years. under the familiar name
of Bedlam, from den of bowling horrors to be
pleasant refuge for the unfortunate, where
science and humanity work hand in hand, ex-
empfes the change throughout Cbrstendom,
from the strong court and dismal cells and chains
relics of the monastery and prisOn-tO the
relatively cheerful and comfortable establish
ments and methods of our own day. There is
room, however, for further improvement in
means and methods The disposition 10 provide
for this helpless class has been made manifest
by the expenditure of many millions and it
would seem that even the danger of extrava-
gance has not been avoided, SO great has been
the desire to fulfill well
cred duty. The State owes a duty to
herself in view of prospective loads to be
RED. 1t cannot be necessary to bulld hospitals
and asylums at cost OF $4,000 per patient, as
has been done, nor even ST. 900, in our own
State.

THE STATES NEW HOSPITALS.

DR.. Rogers submitted a report of his observa-
lions on a tour of inspection with E. II. Ketchum,
the architect of the commission, to the cities
where the hospitals to be located.
The sanitary and Typographical advantages of
Richmond and Logansporr, he thought, were
well adapted to the purposes. The topography
of Richmond is we'll suited for hospital on the
BrOOkwood plan. Good building stone will be
convenient at LOgansport, and good water
Evansville hospital upon the cOnjoined radate
house system. Tine corridor system will not be
adopted in the plans for any of the buildings.
DR.. Rogers was appointed superintendent of con-
struction Of the Logansport hospital and William
g. Kaufman, OF Newcastle. was appointed super
intendent OF the Richmond building. The board
adjourned last evening. They will meet again in
this city on next Thursday, when it is probable
that something definite will be done in fixing the
location of the site for the Evansville hospital.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1883-09-06
THE HOUSE SYSTEM.


The systems now in use are the corridor the
house, the pavilion or block, and the cottage,
any o! which may be either conjoined de-
tached. The ''hOuse" system is the one which
DIR. Rogers recommends as the best, and it is the
one which the commissioners will adopt. The
essential feature of the house plan is the more
or less complete separation of the day and night
Accommodations, by devoting the ground floor
of buildings to the purpose of day rooms, while
the upper floors are used entirely sleeping
rooms. A portion of the ground floor is re-
served for the accommodation of feeble, aged,
paralytlc or violent patients who cannot ascend
stairs or sleep in dOrmitOries. Among the noLa-
BILE examples of this system are some of the re-
cent British asylums-the Perth district asy-
lum, at Cupar. IN Flfeshre; at Meerenburg near
HARLEM, in Holland; at Hamburg; at the new
asylum at Evreux, in France, and at
KanRakee, in Illinois. "In England" Dr.
Rogers says, "Uhe new Surrey asylum, at
Brookwood, is very satisfactory combination
designed after much study of English and CONT
mental asylums, and embodies the best points of
most of them" The Richmond hospital will be
constructed upon almost exactly the same plan
as the BroOkwood asylum. The main structure
is chiefly on the house plan, and is designed TO
contain rooms for the administration and wards
for the recently admitted and the sick which are
tendence of the resident physicians. The conva-
descent and the working patients are accOmmo-
dated in four detached blocks, the latter in CON
nectiOn with the workshops on the male side, and
the laundry on the female side The more quiet
