violently insane, should be kept in the
| greatest possible condition OF cleanliness
| This necessitates frequent baths. These
are often madly resisted by patients whose
condition of filth is beyond description,
and who must be thoroughly cleaned.
There have been cases where as many as
seven strong attendants have been neces-
sary to secure this result. 1t had to be
done, however, and was thoroughly done.
The wonder to US has always been that
so few attendants sustain serious injuries
from patients. This is due to the fact
that they are constantly on their guard, and
that those who deal with this class of pa
| tients are employees Who have been found,
by practical experience, to have a peculiar
faculty for controlling insane people.
Some people have this power in marked
degree, and when the officials of the hos
pital secure such one they endeavor to
retain his services as long as possible.
We have been frequent visitor at the
to its high character and the efficiency of
it's work. We have marvelled many times
at the wonderful faculty for winning the
confidence and good will of these people
possessed by Superintendent Sanborn. A
walk with him through the wards re-
veals the fact that there is not patient
in any of them who does not regard him
as his or her particular personal friend,
and they are right for no man could have
their welfare more at heart, or be more
solicitous for their care and comfort. Go
into the hospital at any time and ask DR..
Sanborn the condition of any one of its
patients, and it is rare indeed that he can
not tell you with the utmost fullness of
detail. Everyone of these people is care
and study not only to him, but to his
able corps of assistants.
Whatever may be said to the contrary
by the insane or the malevolent, the fact
remains that this institution is ably, hui
namely, and carefully managed. 1t has
done in years past, and under it's devoted
officials will continue to do in years to
come noble work for the care and relief
of the unfortunate insane of our State.

1t is pretty evident that England under
existing conditions dreaded fight be-
tween Russia and Japan for fear of being
drawn into the imbroglio. The tone of
the English press in relation to the con-
cession indicates that England influenced
Japan to yield to the demands of Russia,
Franco and Germany. England has
enough on her hands to incline her to con-
scrvatism and in this connection it is
apparent that little frmness on the
part of our government would have termi-
mated the Nicaraguan controversy more
to our credit. But now that the Japanese
government has acceded to the demands
her troubles are by no means ended
