IN THE LIGHT OF THE FUTURE.

In the years to come, when we look back
with patriotic satisfaction upon our partici-
patton in the glorious struggle for tariff re-
form and recall its happy termination, it
will delight US to remember every incident
of Encouragement as well as of triumph in
the peoples cause. Then, when we are
asked to speak of our proudest, political
endeavor and to give the best illustrates of
American intelligence and to pay the high
est tribute to the judgment of the Ameri-
can people, we will rehearse the history
and the grand result Of "The Campaign of

The sanitary condition of the Asylum dur.
ing the past year has been excellent. and, as a
result. the health of the patients has been as
good as could possibly be expected of a popu-
lation whose presence here implies disease.
Frequently during the year days would pass
by without single case of any acute disease
being under medical treatment in either of
the departments. We have had no epidemic
of anv kind, with the exception of the grippe
last winter which, as you are aware, prevailed
SO universally throughout the country.

increase not only the employments but the
amusements of the patients; and I am happy
to report that the actual labor performed by
them has. in some respects, greatly surpasse ed
the efforts of the previous years, A large mum.
Der of the more robust patients have been

in digging the foundations of the new male
building. and in the general gardening and
farming operations, in leveling and grading
the front garden and converting it into park
In gathering the crops both from the farm and
the gardsn, and in the engineer and laundry
departments, etc. Not only have they been
EN- ployed in the outdoor work. but also on
the repairs of the buildings, always numerous
in an Institution of this magnitude
The entertainments have been fully equal,
both in respect of number and attractiveness
to those of the previous year. In addition to
the usual weekly dances. concerts and plays
have been given which were most thoroughly
enjoyed by a large number OF the patients.
Out door pastimes and games during the sum
mer months. we're promoted as far as practical
bic, Cards, backgammon, billiards. ETC., were
indulyed in aud were extremely popular with
all classes.
On the female side much activity has pre-
vailed. In addition to their ordinary mouse.
hold avoc a.ions, the female patients, under
the direction of the matron and the attend
ants have done the usual amount of sewing,
Knitting. and fancy work.

more select cases are allowed the privilege of

practicable. these privileges are extended to
all class3s.
When patients are sent to an asylum they
are often told that they are goirg on a visit to
some city or watering place, and other state

the good intent ton of comforting the patients
with an,icipations OF pleasant visit 10 new

WEST SIDE DRY.

The West Side went dry yesterday as r
result of the water main across the river
near the Douglas avenue bridge giving
way. The temperature of Thursday night
is saio TO be responsible for it. The water
company was at work yesterday putting ia
a new main.
The fact caused many to suggest that
the Central avenue main might give way
some time under similar circumstances
and the entire city would be dry, no mat
ter how much fire started. II is also re-
called that the city engineer Is en- record

Committee.
RESPONSE BY JUDGE BALDERsToN.

D
Gentlemen of the Jury-We have gotten
along very nicely and pleasantly, and your
verdicts haYe been satisfactory to the
court.
If there is any error that has crept in, it
has been error on the part OF the court Ill
the instructions or rulings.
You have had some very difficult ques-
tions to unravel: not only the law ques-
tions have been difficult, but the questions
of fact have been very difficult TO decide as
to what was proper and what was right.
| have noticed no prejudice or bias IN the
jury You seem to have taken hold OF the
question in the light of doing your duty
as between man and man, and as between
residents of the state of Kansas and the
residents of other states, and they have
had an equal show with the residents or
this county and state. This is The true
spirit OF our American instito tiOns, that
tine citizen of any part of the Unlted States
or any part of the world can go into any
judicial tribunal ana have the law admin
iStered Just the same as the residents OF
the community in which the case is
being tried. And / repeat that it shows
the true spirit of our American institu-
tions, and if it was the case everywhere
there would be no cause to complain.
This jury have handled their work with
intelligence, and you have evidently not
been selected on account OF your ignorance.
| think this jury have done remarkably
well, and ! have kept YOU until the end OF
this term, because the longer you are here
the better you can try law suits; the law is
something that requires good deal OF
experience.
LII discharging you, gentlemen of the
jury, allow me TO return to you my sincere
thanks for your attendance and for the
conscientious discharge OF your duty l
hope we Will all meet again.
