rpArytD NURSES FOE ALuSHOUSES.

II was n painful picture of the neglect and
misery of a country almshouse that the late
Dir Holland drew in his novel OF "Scven-
oaksD but it il to he feared that the picture
was true to life and could be duplicated in
much more pretentious institutions. Inc well
fare of the inmates Of almshouses and hospi-
tails depends upon those Immediately III charge
Boards of directors, visiting committees and
the supervision of high officials are all well
enough in their way, yet every general knows
that he must finally rely upon his lieutenants
and abide by their fidelity to their trusts.
There are not wanting proofs that these trusts
are too often inadequateiy fulfilled by those
in whose hands is placed the care OF the poor
and infrm.
One reason for this lies in the difficulty
of procuring persons adapted by educa-
ton and experience TO immediate contact
with the inmates of such institutions The
ouestion of fitness in candidates for positions is
too often ignored. 1t has been found that IN
some almshouses the only attention given
sick paupers was by their aged and feeble
brethren, and there are continually cropping
I'm instances of neglect and improper treat
mcnt often caused more by the indifference
of Ignorance than by greed or righteousness.
Yet here in this city we find valuable hint
as to way of lettering the condition Of
olmsbouses Of this State and elsewhere. Take
the history of Bellevue Hospital. The present
building, erected sixty years ago, was for
thirty wears used as an almshOuse, and up TO
1SAS the inmates received only such care and
nursing as they obtained at the hands of con-
victs of the Female Penicntidry. This
vretched arrangement was modified by the
emplcyment OF hired nurses, but in 1872,
when a committee of the State Charities Aid
Association examined the condition of Belle
vue, they found 900 patients crowded together
without adequate sleeping room, clothing or
food. with no night nurses and only three
pight-watchmen, who cOniiscated the stlmu-
lants prescribed, while the wOrkhOuse women
cmployed as "helpers" did the same for any
articles ordered as Especial Diet
Here were sufficiently scandalous evils, due
largely to incompetent subordnates. but the
ladies of the visiting committee and such
physicians as the late Dr. James r.
Wood, Dr. Austin Flint and DR.. Stephen
Smith believed that such abuses mean some
thing more than political capital A remedy
was sought; the next year the Bellevue Train
ing School for Nurses was established, and
educated. trained and faithful ladies have re-
placed the Sairey Camps of other days From
this school have been graduated $50 nurses,
7s of whom are now practising in this city. A
few days since there was held the commence
ment of the training school attached to the
New York Hospital, which since its establish
mcnt in 1877 has graduated 81 nurses, 20 of
whom are now in this city. The value of their
services has been felt not only in hospitals in
