The Pennsylvania committee on luna
cy of the board of public charities, have
been investigating, through local ply
sicians, the treatment in that State OF

From the report of the committee,

a number of cases have been discov-
cred where insane persons have been
kept for years in confinement by there
friends aud relatives under circum
stances Of great cruelty. OF fourteen
cases particular described, two women
were found chained by the leg, one OF
whom haA bean thus secured for ten
years, the other for two years. A man
over Atty years Of age was found In q
room fastened by An iron chain twenty
inches long attached TO the floor. The
chain had caused liberation OF the leg
and great pain. Another old man WA
treated.
i A woman seventy. four years Of age
was found tied down securely to her bed
and her shrieks were heard by the com.
mittee before they reached her room,
A weak and emaciated young man waa
found in q small outshed with leath
or belt fastened about his body secured
by paddock, while his hands were Arm
lly held by wristlets. Others were dis
lowered In miserably built wooder
|sheds deficient In warmth, without ven
tilation and without the necessary CON
veniences. One man had been confined
In hut ON his nephew's farm for more
than 80 years, another for more thar
sixty, and one was burned to death in q
frame shed pending the efforts OF the
committe TO have him removed to 9
State hospital. A woman possessed o.
means sufficient for her comfortable
support was found chained and abso
lutely naked. Seven OF these pool

BRUTAL MURDER COMMITTED BY 4
GEORGIA NEGRO.

CoLUMBUs, GA. Au.u PA
wife murder with details of . most
shocking nature is reported from
Harris County, which is gaining an
unenyiable notoriety for deeds of
violence. In Apple Va ley, in that
County. lives a colored man named
Sydney Hall ard his wife, woman
considerably his Junior. He has
been jealous Of her for some time,
and so cmbittered her life that
there was no love lost between
them. On several occasions Hall
claims that his wife had put poison
in his tea and that he lived in con-
slant dread of his life. When,
yesterday evening, Hall went to his
employer. Judge Anderson, and
told him that ''de ole woman would
bodder him no more now,' the
Judge had no conception of the
terrible dead which had been COM
mitted. He went with Hall 10
his cabin, and there or the bed lay
the body of the dead woman, her
head having rolled off on the floor,
which was covered with blood. Il
done it, boss" said Hall, without
culver. ''She won't bodder Us 10
more now.'' The fend then gave
circumstantial account Of how he
killed her.
Two weeks before, he said, his
wife had made her last attempt to
poison him. He then made her
drink some of the tea, which sick
ened her considerably. Yesterday
afternoon he chided her with some
new evidences of infdelity, to
which her,only response was that
he would get a good dose of tea
when he was not thinking about it.
She then went to bed for her even
ing nap. Hall said he sat there
until he saw she was fast asleep,
and in thinking over his misfortune
he felt almost like killing himself.
Then came the suggestion, "Why
not kill herr" He tried to fight
the thought down, but could not.
The idea took possession Of his
mind and held him spellbound. At
last. with desperate effort, he re-
solved to go out to his work and
escape the temptation. He took up
his axe and went as far as the door.
He turned for moment and looked
at his sleeping wife. Then the
desire to kill her became over-pow:.
ering, and before he was conscious
of what he was do ng he was beside
the bed, had raised his axe and
struck for her neck, cutting it con-
siderably. At the first blow the
woman raised her hand and grasped
the axe handle convulsively and
attempted to raise herself, with her
head half cut off, as it was. With
terrible wrench he shook off her
hold and she fell back on the bed.
Another blow completed the work.
and her head rolled off at his feet.
He then put the axe away, and af-
ter ruminating over what he had
done concluded that the best that
he could do was to tell his master
all about it, and he did so.
