INCREASE OF INSANITY.
There Are Now Over 1 900 Lunatics In
the MiddletoWn Hospital.

Bids for erecting the new building to be
added to the state hospital for the insane
at Middleto wn will be called for in a few
days. The appropriation is $1,000
The commitments to the hospital in
crease about sixty year over each prec i'd
ing year. Already there are 600 ldnatics
in Middletown, and the quarters are SO
crsmped that new patients have to be made
room for by transfers or discharges.
No causes are given for the alarming in
crease of insanity in Connecticut. Some
physicians SAY that the grip this year is q
prevalent breeder of insanity, that 1t strikes
the nervous system and often upsets the
brain, but the grip alone does not account
for the alarming spread of insanity.
