Bereft of Reason.

Erastus Holmes, forty five years of age, and a
wellto-do resident of the south part of the city,
went to Minnesota in the fall of 1884 to spend
the winter with a son. While there he became
insane and was sent to the asylum at ST. Peters,
that State His friends, wishing for his transfer
to the insane hospital here, made arran gements
for Superintendent Fletcher to receive him. On
his arrival it was found that the Minnesota au-
thorities had neglected to send the papers re-
lating to the case and establishing the mental
condition of the patient Another inquest of
lunacy became necessary. This was held yes
terday, before Esquires Pease and Smock
Mr.. Holmes belonged to the Fifth
Indiana Cavalry, and for a long time was pris-
at Andersonville, where he contracted the
seeds of disease which led to his mental weak
ness. Once he was violent, but is manageable
now, except when excited in relating his horrible
prison experience.
Michael Larkin fifty years of age, and la
borer, was adjudged insane yesterday. His de-
lusons were that certain people wanted to shoot
him, and they hired boys for that purpose. He
wandered in search of hiding places. o. Dr.
Hodges testified that if not cared for he would
be found dead sometime in the woods or in a
hay-loft

that you in the meantime issue warrants for the
arrest of several persons. I want your Honor to

Japan as a Fighting Power.

NJ. Tasima, the superintendent of those
Japanese officers who are pursuing their
military studies in Europe, has supplied
a correspondent with some account of his
country's position as a fighting power.
The standing army of the empire consists
of 40, 900 men, the reserve of so, 90, and
landwehr, or territorial reserve, of $50, 900.
All these troops are dressed and equipped
in EuroE can fashion, and they are at pres
ent partly armed with Remingtons and
partly with Sniders. A new rifle, how
ever, the invention of japanese colonel,
will shortly be ready for issue 1t com
bines the merits of the Gras, the Chase
pot and the Mauser system, and the Eng
lish officers who have tested it speak
highly both of its principle and of its
Workmanship.
In japan service is obligatory, the con
script after remaining for three years
with the colors, passing into the reserves.
Even after his discharge from the land
wehr he forms-provided that he be less
than 40 years of age-of a kind of ma
tional guard that can be called out for the
purposes of home defense. Certain
classes are by law exempted from active
service broad, but every japanese. with
out exception has to learn the use of arms
as the price of his citizenship.

killing Understanding in New York.

Interview with a Music Teacher.l
Two + three years ago some evil genius
in New York found himself with lot of
empty studios on his haads A wicked
rooms magnificently. No expense was
spared Carpets, upholstery, hangings.
and artistic decorations all were of the
grandest description Then in a moment
of inspiration he advertised for short-time
tenants people, you know, who would
hire the rooms by the hour. Among his
applicants were two or three third-rate
musicians. They advertised widely, sent
out thousands of circulars inviting ladies
to visit their artistic studios, for so they
had the assurance to call these places
The bait took. Women like novelties
They came, they saw, they were con.
quered They sent their daughters to
these new masters. Men with such per-
feet taste in decorating rooms must be full
Of art souls, of course. Consequently the
specula, began to thrive. They didn't
know much music, but they knew human
nature, and that was better. If they
couldn't play they could tiatter, and fat
ter they did. Pupils began to pour in
upon them, and as the rents of the fur
nished rooms rose so did the tenants re-
ceipts. The business, of course, increased
when others realized the success of the
scheme

in this city. Each has on an average four
or five tenants who divide the day and
evening up between them. Each has the
room for say two hours and pays from
50 to So an hour. He charges So for a
three-quarters of an hours lesson, and
there. you see, his profit comes in. The
thing has killed decent music teaching in
New York. How do l know that? Well.
l ought to be an authority. I've paid
enough for my knowledge It's cost me
four-tifths of my pupils and nine-tenths
of my income, that's all
