stitches. The wound was sewed nm q
second time, and the suicides hands
incased in pair of leather muf1s. when
he managed to tear the stitches bv ierly-
ING his head backward and forward
and from side to side. He was then nut
in crib, and box made to place his
head and shoulders in. so that it was
utterly impossible for him to move the
least bit He was kept in this contri-
vance for nearly seven weeks, much IF
which time it was very doubtful wheth-
er he would recover or not. After BEING
taken from the crib he was transferred
to ward 10. His hands for a lono
time afterward were kept in the Leather
mutfs, but he finally induced the at
tendant, on promise to not again at
tempt suicide, to take them of. Tom.i
his old attendant, upon learning of this
fact called on the new keeper and told
him he would regret taking off the muAs
before the week was over, and sure
enough he did. The third day aftertbe
mulfs were taken off the attendant was
in his room cutting a small piece of to-
bacco off of large plug with a small
pen-knife, when Francis sprang into
the room, grasped the knife out of his
hand, and before the keeper could in
terfere drew it across his own throat
1t then became necessary to put him
in the crib again, where he was kept
another spell of several weeks, but the
doctors again pulled him through. He:
never after that attempted suicide One
remarkable feature about this mar
case was that he never attenl15te5t IT,
seemed to contemplate ending his lie
any other way than by cutting his
throat. After recovering from his
second terrible experience he seemed
to improve. He continued growing
better, until finally his folks, upon their
own responsibility took him home,
where he continued doing well until
some time in May last, when he again
showed symptoms of returning insanity,
but before he grew bad enough to be
returned to the asylum, he was kicked
on the head by a horse, sustaining a
fractured skull, which in the course of
few days resulted in his death.
Many other equally as%thrilling and
horrible truths can be picked up at
almost any insane asylum OF any note.
Many more incidents that would make
very interesting reading came to my
notice during my visits, some of them
very ludicrous, others pathetic, while
the above are among the most terrible.
There is one old man at present in the
Dayton Asylum who donated 800 to
the institution when it was built, and
this fact is one of the very few things
he never loses sight Of 1t seems to
burn into the poor fellows very soul.
There are a number of the inmates who
in some way have got it into their poor
brains that they are there waiting for
payday, and the attendants tell me it
is very touching when several of them
become impatient and demand their
money on threats to leave. They often
claim their wives and children are
starving, and they must have their
money or they will die. 1t is utterly
impossible for one to imagine the har-
rowing thoughts that a short study of
an insane asylum and its patients will
awaken. 1t must be experienced to be
appreciated.-Ida May, IN Cincinnati

CONTEMPT OF "COURT."

Twas case of attachment, the lawyer said,
And he seemed not 10th to tell,
When asked by friend how the matter sped,
That his suit was spering well.
Though young he argued his case with
power
; As soon as the writ was returned.
And argued so long that the midnight hour
Oft came ere the court adjourned.
But her father came down and the case he
closed
BY boOting the youth one night,
And the latter declared such an act opposed
To legal procedure quite;
Aad he said to the maid, as he rubbed his
SPINE
He would bring an action of tort,
And ask the Judge to intiict fine
On her pa for contempt of court"

A JUDGES REBUKE.

what lie Said When Passing Sentence
Upon Violators of the Laws of the
state.
Hon. F. NJ. Hubbard. District Judge
of the Eighth Judicial District of Iowa.,
IN passing sentence upon some liquor
dealers for violation of the Prohibitory
laws of the State, said:
"Whle there are greater crimes
known to the law which are punishable
with great severity, there are none.
which involve more of those qualities
known as despicable meanncss and
audacity than the selling of intoxicat-.
inc liquors. There is something in the,
taking OF human lie so instantaneous
that it shocks and terriiics the minds of
all; and yet we look upon the man who,
takes human life quite as surely, but
by slow, ling ring process, if not
without condemnation, at least without
horror. You who and before the.
court for sentence are in every moral
sense murdercrS, and you are within
the spirit, if not the letter. guilty of
manslaughtcr; for the law says that
whoever acccerates the death of hui
man being unlawfuIly is guilty of the
crime. \ Your blOatcd victims upon the
witness stand, and who undoubtedly
committed perjury to screen you from
the law, not only abundantly testify
that YOU are acceierating death, but
that you are inducing men to commit
still greater CT me 5 than your own. You

THE DRINK CURSE.
A Broken Hearted Wife Whose Husband
Has Become Like AN Untamed Beast.

A broken hearted Nlie whose Husband
Has Become Like AN Untamed Beast.
Not many years ago a young man
of the highest promise and bearing an
honored name, his profession being
that of LAWYER united in marriage
with one of the loyeIiest of her sex.
Every one present at the wedding feast
remarked: "What brilliant future"
Nothing seemed wanting to complete
his worldly bliss. But alas! intern
perance came Ike thief in the night
time tor he was a secret drinker at
iir5D and robbed him of his honor, his
elOquence, and gradually transformed
him into a ticnd, and his beautiful
wife. with ill-diS9used fear, watched
and waited for the coming of her lost
loved one, striving by every skillful de-
vice imaginable to shield HIM from the
unfeel.ng world. Only a few days ago,
! received letter eve were school
mates) written by her own hand, and
her words OF intense suffering and
despair haunt me:
"My friend, my heart is broken. My
once kind husband is no longer a man
of feeling. His actions remind me Of
an uutamed beast in our little poverty
stricken home What shall l do; oh,
what shall ! do?'
All. Men in their daily walks of life
know but very little in regard to the
worst features of incompetence. 1t is
the poor wife who must witness its hor~
rors and endure its curse.
Look at the young men of to-day,
wearing the flushed check. Notice,
too, their nervous. unsteady hand and
observe their watery eyes--a sufficient
proof of the use of intoxicating liquors,
which is slowly but surely doing its
deadly work.
Statistics show that the amount of
mortality among persons of intemper-
ate habits IS ten times greater than that
of the temperate community But the
persuasive voice of temptation has only
to be heard: Come, boys, let us take
a drink" All. young men, pause in
your downward course. -Euajcc But

Keep an Eye on the Chickens.

Hens like to have their liberty and to
roam over the garden and fields and ia
select their own nesting places in the
barn or among the bushes or tall grass
in the vicinity of buildings, but the
profits to their owners under such cir
cumstances are not always sure to be
satisfactory, Hens in the garden are
generally unmitigated nusances. surely
50 if they are your neighbours hens.
Many persons seem to think that poul-
try can not be profitable unless they
can have their full liberty and can OBJ
tain most of their living from what
they can pick up while foraging on their
own account. But this is a mistake.
Hens running at large, unless closely
watched and cared for, seldom pay
very well. They often have to scratch
too hard for their living, ard what eggs
they lay are largely lost or in some way
wasted Then the chickens get caught
by hawks, foxes or other animals of
pfey.-N. b. Farmer.
