the hat itself at present. Every elab-

worn in particular way and it is

patients could be taken from one or
both Of the metropolitan counties and
cared for on the county boarding sys-
tenn. This, with the alternative Of adj
ding to the accommodations at one, two
or three of the existing hospitals, has
been given some consideration by the
members Of the board, but the con-
census Of opinion among insane hos
p1tal executives seems to be that the
hospitals at st. Peter and Rochester,
at least, have reached the full limit Of
population consistent with the best adj
ministration, while the Fergus Falls in
stitution just at present has a larger
population than that at st. Peter.
Another problem that awaits the
board and the legislature, and in which
Is the necessity Of the board having q
secretary familiar with this branch of
the state government is the provision
of some suitable establishment for the
detention of the criminal insane. 1t is
believed that when the prison investi-
eating commission makes it's report in
few weeks, it will bring plainly be-
fore the people and the officials the ne
cessity of some new method of caring
for the insane criminals. The recent
release Of Moshik to tre-engage in muir
der and robbery within a few hours
from his release was a tragic object
lesson, while some Of the3revelations of
the prison Investigations from within
the walls were scarcely. less impress
s1vc Of the necessity for aichange in the
saltwater scheme. Whether this prob
lem be met by the Cesta hlishment of a
separate cell building for these lunatics
at the prison. or by the building of a
separate hospital for them, isolated
from any other state Institution, is
question which the board will be called
upon to present to the Legislature next
January with the recommendation it
deems proper.

1t is very probable that the state
board Of corrections and charities will
devote some time to the selection Of a.
secretary to succeed Rev. H. H. Hart,
who has recently resigned to accept a.
position with the Childrens Aid So
ciety, in Chicago. There have been a
number Of names suggested for the
vacant secretaryship. but there is a
sentiment in the board, in view of the
fact that the chief problem now before
1t for solution is the proper care Of the
states insane, that the secretary should
be one familiar with insanity and in
sane hospitals. This Is a qualification
possessed only in a small degree by the
Twin City candidates.
The monthly statement Of population
Of the prison public institutions shows
that the population of the insane hos
pitfalls is constantly increasing. This
statement, compiled yesterday, is as
follows:

*Includes Is United States prisoners. from

prisoners, from other states.
While the secretary is only a part of
the board, he is the working force of
the institution. and for that reason 1t
is deemed advisable that some one be
selected who is familiar with the care
of the insane. not so much from a
pathological point of view, as from an
executive one. The next legislature is
going to be called upon to settle some
very troublesome questions as to what
to do with the states insane popuia-
ton.
Assurances, the sincerity of which is
perhaps open to suspicion, have been
given that the aStings war is
not to be reopened, but, whether it is
or not, there are two large problems in
the treatment and care of the insane
to be decided. One is whether or not
the present system of hospitals is to be
extended by the addition of a new hos
pital or whether the state shall insti-
tute the Wisconsin plan Of county hos
pitfalls where the insane may be cared
for. On this basis, it has been pro-
posed that a hospital be built for one,
OF two for both of the counties in which
the largest cities in the state are To-
Gated. 1t has been suggested too, that
Dakota county might locate one, say
at MenCota. or in that vicinity, where

about four hours boat ride from the
mainland, somewhere in Southern
waters, around the Gulf of Mexico"
The articles which will be submitted
to Fitzsimmons provide that Stuart
and the two principals are to select
the referee, and Stuart announces flat
ly that he prefers George Siler. In
case he signs Corbett and Fitzsimmons,
Stuart says he will offer purse for
MCCOY and Mitchell or Mccoy and

also willing to sign FitZsimmons and

To escape seizure. the owner of a sealskin
garment must be able to show to the collec-

are complied with the collector must seize

Detroit women who visit their Canadian
neighbors will not be put to much incon-

get certificate Of ownership from the col
