Alice Mitchell in the Asylum.

When the legislative visiting commits
tee went through the West Tennessee
Asylum for the Insane at Bolivar, says
the Louisville Courier yOurnaI, their at
tention was naturally directed more to
Alice Mitchell than to all the other pa
tients. They found the slayer of her
girl friend in fine physical condition.
She has never been i'll Il day in the nine
months of her confinement. She has
gained twenty pounds in weight and is
as handsome a girl as one could wish to
see. Mentally, however, she shows no
improvement. She seems content with
her lot, and has very little to say about
the outside world.
When the name of Freda Ward is
mentioned she seems subdued by sad
recollectiOns for the moment, but the in
fiuence soon passes away, leaving her as
joyous as ever. Her favorite diversion
is playing the harmonica, which she
does frequently for the entertainment of
the other patients, all of whom have the
greatest affection for her. Before the
tragedy of twelve months ago she was a
sllillful performer on the piano, but she
is unable to stretch an octave now, ow-
ing to having severed the leaders in two
fingers of her right hand in handling the
razor with which she cut her victims
throat. The hand is not deformed, but
the injured fingers have lost their former
fleXibility. She is frequently visited by
members of her family, and seems glad
to see them, but shows no grief at their
departure.
The most skeptical are now convinced
that the girls malady is genuine, and
the asylum physicians have no hope OF
her recovery.

The Hand That Rocks the Cradle.

Apparently there is but one argument
TO be BROUGHT forth for the discontinue
OF those often disappointed, yet always
hopeful, believers in the equalization of
the sexes. The universal doctrine of po-
lenics on this subject consists in the
statement that her own fireside is the
/ only place for women. In whatever
point the supporters of feminine rights
may assail the walls Of superiority with
which the stronger sex has surrounded
itself, there is always somebody of elo-
quence and logic who calls out oyer the
ramparts that women haze no function
beyond that of housekeeping
School Commissioner O'Brien is the
latest logician who has given utterance
to this dictum. By reason of his name
this gentleman is legal heir to those
agreeable qualities possessed by a certain
stone renowned in Irish history as the
father of Establishment Mr. O'Brien is
willy. He has faith in diplomacy He
believes that soft answer turneth away
wrath. He asserts with enthusiasm that
he admires, respects and reveres feminin-
ity; that he is willing to admit it's intel
ligence and ready to confess its ability.
But, after due recognition of these ac-
complshments. he still depreciatingly
insists that women should remain at
home. The Commissioners argument is
against bill, now before the legislature
which promises to allow women a small
representation in boards of education.
No radical changes are contemplated by
this act. If passed it will allow only an
infinitesimal proportion of women to
have voice in directing the systems of
our schools. However, so far as our
Board of Education is concerned, the
request is not to be granted. Flattering
but obstinate Mr. O'Brien represents the
members of his Board and considera
BILE number of those of his sex by the
statement that there is no place like
home for women.
Yet it would seem to the impartial
mind that women are never so thorough
ly domesticated as when they are guilds
ing the education of children. If they
are, as in the advancement of civiiza-
ton they inevitably must be, given
place in the public affairs of a nation
whose virtues and whose character are
largely modelled by their training, it is
best that women should enter office in
sphere for which they are fitted by the
instincts of motherhood. If there is any
political position for which women is
wholly adapted that function would APP
pear to be the ultimate mental devel-
opement of her own offspring.
1t is evident to thoughtful class in the
community that the influence of women
in educatiinal boards would be active for
the benefit of those whose first, and, in
some matters, best training has been
feminine. The costant jeremiad that
calls upon them to stay at home is I'M
wise in this instance. An american wo-
man is always at home in the education
Of Ter sons in character and of her daugh-
tiers in virtue. Whether by her fireside |
or on boards of education, it is to her !
alone that we must look for the develop
ment of those minds on which will de-
pend the dignity and glory of our coun-
try.-019V York Press.
