GROW FAT ON SORROW.
Most Madmen Are Not Really Un-
happy.
Prom The Boston Globe.

From the Boston Globe.
SARATOGA, n. Y, Sept. 4.-The Ameri-
can Social Science Association department
of health was IN session to-day.
An able paper on Popular Fallacies of
the Insane" was read 10y DR.. Pliny Earl of
Northampton, Mass. He said that perhaps
no one point in the general belief in regard
TO the inmates of the institutio for the
Insane Is more widely prevalent than that
they are unhappy, wretched, miserable:
In refe ence TO very few and
wholly exceptional cases this is, to a
certain extent, true But further than that
1t IS untrue. And the same may be said
of any class or collection OF human
beings wherever situated and in what
mental condition sewer they may be. 1t
mad been his lot to be connected with each
Of five such institutions sufficiently long to
become acquainted with its patients, and
he fully believed their happiness was as
great as that of those looked upon as sane.
SAD spectac es are seen in the worst wards
of hospital, but is aspect is the CO Sc
que ce OF mental Impairment and bodily
deterioration, and is no evidences Of ulhap-
piness on the part Of the patients. The
observer de ives his Judgment from his
own feelings and emotions, not from the
mental and moral conditi IN of the persons
around him, which, particularly if it be
casual visitor, he annot accurately des
cribe.
Among the classes Of the insane. of which
the subjects most painfully and distressingly
impress the inexperienced observer are the
melancholiacs, some Of whom are continu-
ally uttering expressions of self condemna-
tion for acts or ''sins" Of either omission or
commission, and not infrequently of both.
In language, in tone of speech, in facial
expression and in general appearance they
sometimes seem to embody all that goes to
make up the sum of the extre ne of human
mental wretchedness and suffering. Aud
yet, with o incOnsiderable part of these,
all this outside show of misery is simply
habit, to which anything like real feeling
is an ut er stranger. No person can long
survive the reality Of their apparently in
tie Use suffering, but their health is not inn
paired by it. There are some who even
thrive upon il.
1t is indeed true that among the inmates
OF hospital one may hear more express
slons indicative of unhappiness than among
the same number of sane persons. Toe
latter are like the boilers in which the
steam is repressed, subjected control, and
generally used only as dictated by prudence
and good judgment while the former, like
the open boiling pot, permits the generated
steam rise directly 10 the surface in bub-
bles and Immediately pass away. There is
basis of truth for the old saying that the
only difference between sane aud an in
sane ma is that the latter speaks what he
thinks, while the for ner does not 1t is the
same, let it be remembered, in regard to
feeling and emotion. The insane permit
them untrammeled at once TO appear in
expresso the same red ice them to re-
stralnt and condo nn them to concealment

The novel fact that Gen. George l. Becker
was once elected to congress-, but was beaten
out Of his seat by game Of seven-up, is prob
ably known by very few at the present time
1t was in the fall Of 1851 The territory of
Minnesota had Just been organized, prepare
tory to admission as q state the following
year, and three men were elected to the lower
house of congress, to wit, George L. Becker,
of st. Paul, James NJ Cavanaugh, Of Chat
field, and ". " Phelps, Of Red Wing, all
Democrats. When the census Of the terri
tory was taken for the benefit of congress 1t
turned out that the new state would be en-
titled to only two members of the lower
house. There were three very much discon-
certed young men, for they were trimming
with life and ambition, and neither of them
rehshed the idea of giving up the captured
prize. However, after siege of contriving
and pickering, in which neither gained
point over the other, young Becker laughing
~ suggested that they decide the matter by
three handed game of seven-up The other
two jumped at the proposition, and in less
than two hours proved TO Mr.. Becker that he
had made very bad s., gestion for his own
interests Becker aocer i the defeat grace
fully, but was unable restrain feeling of
contempt for the hands the other fellows
played-St Paul Pioneer Press

WHERE Is THE MONEY?
Johnstown Sufferers Claim that Contribu-
tions are Wrongly Expended.

JoHNsTowN Pa, July 13-A large mass
meeting of citizen was held this afternoon
to protest against the manner in which
the relief fund is being distributed
Burgess Harrell, in speech. said that the
people of the valley should themselves
make disbursements of contributions as
the state commissioner had shown in
capacity for the work; urging that the
relief fund be as speedily as possible dis
trlbuteo in money directly to the people
to whose benefit it was donated and that
all purchases, contracts and expenses to
be p aid for out the fund Immediately
cease.
The resolutions state that If the asser-
ton imputed to Governor Beaver, that
over million and half dollars have been
expended in Johntown and vicinity, has
any foundation in fact it is the strongest
possible argument that the funds have
not been wisely distributed. Only by
gross negligence and carelessness could
such sum have been used and the people
had no adequate return.
The resolutions closed with an appeal to
cnstodians of funds at Philadelphia, New
York, Pittsburg, and other localities TO
transmit funds in their hands intended for
the Conemaugh valley sufferers direct to
