ENTERING THE RUILDING.

The long, wide hall which we entered

of cordial checrluiGess lay in the manner
of the uniformed and brisht-faCed attend
ants who passed now and then through the
hall as We waited, We Were given seats
here to await the coming of the doctor.
and we were arrived on committee
day and on the heels OF important b,Isi-
ness. We had long wait
1t must have been a baif hour that we sat
there, and then l saw dapper little man
coming quickly down the stairs. He was
slightly gray and stoop-sbouldcrcd, but had
n youngish and pleasant face. He had the
papers OF our committal In his hand, and
swept our faces with compre hensive eyes.
/ looked at him as vacantly as possible,
and the matron took him 10 one side 10 eN-
plain to him that | would not talk about
myself, and that l had a mania for build
ing fires. / had begun to think thar this
was her mania. she WAS so persistent in ad-
voCating that theory.
The doctor summoned iwoattendants and
having removed my coat and given it TO the
matron, | said farewell 10 her charge, ana
went with the charming young nurse and
entered upon my new experience.
This Young nurse wore dress OF dark
blue serge, Il white apron and a mule cap.
She pat her arm around my waist and drew
me pleasantly along with her. Tie colored
girl with another attendant was before
us. We passed through the first ward
directly off the center. This ] learned is
Cherry ward, and is open 10 the parlors
and main corridor, and Is reserved for
Supervisors rooms and only two or three
of the very best patients. We passed dowI
down lis long bali, at tight angles with
the big main corridor, and the door ut
The end being unlocked we passed through
into the next ward.
] had barely time to he aware OF an other
broad corridor with sunny alcoves and
big windows filled with plants when l
was turned do WI u little passage and guided
into q big, square bathroom. Two at
tcndantS in ngham gowns were here, and
4 third in blue uniform ike the one who
brought me in came upon the scene. Tie
mulatto gin had been taken on TO another
ward. and l WAS the center OF this bevy of
attention.

The wagon was walled in With canvas

a party of friends were seated
and spat in the face of The ex-
president. Ezeta sprang at
Jimnes, who drew a pistol and
pulled the trigger. The weapon
did not discharge readily. and
before the assailant could ac-
complish his purpose he was
seized by Ezeta's friends and
held until the arrival Of police

incurred the dislike of Ezeta in
