Should "UncontroIlable Impulse" Bar

The New Yorl; Law Journal recently
contained an editorial article tavoring
modification OF the test of insanity in

know that it was wrong is a standard
of mental capacity required in New
York to render a person responsible for
crimes committed by him.
The Law Journal argues in favor Of
grading punishment according TO the
mental condition of Offenders who may

Rankin's attorney, and the case Is likely
to be heard in the district court here on
a change OF venue. DR.. Rankin states
that while the case is annoying of course
he does not anticipate anything from it,
as there are no grounds whatever for the
charges of malpractice. 1t Is possible
also that the case will not come to trial

it in shape for the ties and rails if the

The Plan Approved.

The action of the superintendent and
board OF trustees of the hospital in de-
terminlng to set at rest he reports con-
corning the management by a full inves-
tigation mas caused considerable CON-
ment from many of the state papers.
The Mandan Pione or says:
It is q little remarkable that there
should have been for so many years
rumors OF an ugly nature concerning
the jamestown hospital for the insane.
and that those rumors should never
have been investigated and stilled. II
We remember correctly some elk years
ago there was an investigation, but
nothing of satisfactory nature was
the result. The late resignation of
Supt. Archibald paves the way for an
investigation, which doubtless will be
bad. It has been mystery to many
good people that ADMINISTRATIONS should
come and administrations should 60 and
each administration should permit these
ugly rumors to float around, and moth
ing be done with them. 1t is gratifying
that q step Is now to be taken. The
public it is to be hoped will now know
whether these rumors are baseless OF
whether they are based on facts. II
/, these rumors are baseless. then the men
who have circulated, after iEventing
them, should be exposed. It otherwise,
then the state should wear sackcloth
and ashes for having tolerated such a
den OF iniquity for so many years.

about $500 OF that amount was due him.

STOLEN GOODS FOUND.
Barber's Implements Found
in an Unexpected
Quarter.
The List of Lloyd Securities
PubliShed.-An Alleged
Scheme.

Geo. La Vail enjoyed but few hours
of liberty sMonday. He was no sooner
released from the county Jail. where he
had been imprisoned for some time, the
result of = drunken spree and the indis-
criminate use OF q gun, than be again
filed up and proceeded to be law unto
himself. He began the day sober and
from that by degrees passed into the
jolly. the braRRadoolo, the morose, the
ugly, the pug,listlc- --.and then the retro
spective. In Frank Loomis's sott-drinks
place he created disturbance in the
evening and the aid Of the law was in
voked to preserve quiet. Policeman
Dewey had to "put him to sleep" to get
him to the lookup.
When the prisoner was searched pair
of barber's clippers, and a bunch Of keys
we're found on bis person and strange
coat on his back. The clippers were
identified by Elmer Marrell as being
similar to pair taken from his shop
last September when the building was
looted of about all valuables that could
be moved.
Fred Rinket, employed by Geo. Lutz,
identified the coat and keys as belonging
to him. He said they we're stolen, from
a car which he was unloading, at about
3 p. ~. Monday: ,.
When the prisoner was arraiRred be-
fore Justice Flint Tuesday morning the
charge against him was petit larceny.
The prisoner looked at the justice with
an eye single to the purpose in hand
the left eye had the shutters up. The
prisoner plead guilty and was sentenced
to 30 days and S25 fine.
In this connection it may be of interest
to know that portion OF the cigars
stolen from e. Marrell's barber shop last
September we're discovered few weeks
after underneath culvert. They were
taken to police headquarters and identi-
fed. WHAT became Of the remainder Of
the stock, the razors, the shears and
clippers, has never been discovered. The
finding OF the hair clippers on LAVAL
may lead to the discovery of the remain
ing stock.
