Assistant. On the 10Th of
December, 1890, when the
Board of Trustees met, DR..
Douglas was elected Superin-
tendent; and, only a few days
ago, December 10, 1898, he
was reelected to serve for
eight years. Thus it will be
seen that DR.. Douglas has
had control of the institution
almost from its beginning.
Under DR.. Douglas man
agement, the treatment of
the insane has undergone a
decided change. Instead of
idleness and confinement, out
door exercise and employ
ment, suited to different ca
ses, has been literally pre-
scribed, with beneficial effect.
The use of the straight=jack-
ct has been abandoned. Him.
self one of the most humane
of men, DR.. Douglas has
learned by experience that
his charges can best be gov
erned by kindness rather
than cruelty. To give an
idea Of the success he has
achieved, it is only necessary
to state that during his in
cumbency 1900 patients have
been received, and over 500
have been discharged as cured
and improved.
Realizing the fact that the
jails and poor houses of West
Tennessee were crowded with
colored insane, DR.. Doug
las determined, if possible,
to induce the legislature to
make a sufficient appropria-
ton to build an annex to the
Western Hospital for their
benefit. After years of labor
his efforts were rewarded by
the erection of a handsome
brick structure, a few hum
dred yards south of the main
building. The annex is now
occupied by 100 colored in
sane, who are properly cared
for.
The improvement of the
premises is another matter
which has received attention.
The visitor Of to- day will find
graded and graveled walks
ana drives winding through
the beautiful grounds, adorn-
ed with shrubbery; bowling
alley, for the amusement
and pleasure of the patients;
comfortable houses for the
employees; commodious barns
for cattle and stock, and
many other additions.
The original body of land
purchased by the State for
the site of the Western Hos
pital contained 100 acres
then a wild waste of worn
fields, filled with gullies
now in high state of culti-
walton, producing all the nee
essary vegetables for the pa
tients. Five hundred and
forty acres have since been
purchased by the State, most
ly wooded, which furnish a
considerable amount of fuel
and fine pasturage for stock.
All of this land is under new
fence.
The above are some of the
improvements that have
been made within the past
few years, with a very mod
crate expense to the State,
the insane labor having been
utilized, so far as possible.
While these reforms and
improvements have been
brought about under the adj
ministration and by the direc-
ton of the Snnarintendant-

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY.

Longview Texas county, es-
pecially Beckville, is excited over a ter
rible triple tragedy. The trouble start
cd with the marriage OF James Forsythe
highly respected young man, and Miss
Ollie Simpson, belle of the heighbor-
hood. 1t seems that Forsythe did not
have the approval Of the girls father
Andrew Simpson, for the hand OF his
daughter, but with several young men
In the neighborhood he succeeded in
eloping with the young lady and they
were married Saturday night.
This 80 angrred the old gentleman
that when he learned of the wedding last
evening he saddlsd up his horse and
loaded double barreled shotgun and
took his pistol, daolaring he would kill
the whole party concerned. AS he rode
up to Forsythe's home he saw his son-in
law fleeing through the orchard. He
brought him down with seven buckshot
in the groin, leaving him for dead.
He then rode toward the house. King
q Fersythe, father of James, came out
unarmed to see what the trouble was,
and was instantly killed with load of
buckshot in the abdomen. Simpson
then dismounted and ran into the house
with his pistol, saying he would kill his
daughter, but the mother Of young For
sy the ran between them and held his
pistol until the girl was helped away.
Simpson then walked out the front
gate, put the pistol to his forehead and
killed himself instantly. Yousg For
sythe is desperately wounded, but may
recover. All stores in Beekville are
closed, and business in general is. sus-
pended On account of the tragedy.

BEET SUGAR FACTORY.

The next celebration which
should be looked forward to with
interest, is the opening of the
beet sugar factory. The first
great industrial enterprise of mag
nitude to be located in this valley,
the vast expenditure of money
and labor which it has entailed,
bespsaks for its opening a vsrit-
able jubilee occasion.
The successful culture of beets,
this first year, has more than
realized the hopes of the projec-
tor for first year cultivation. 1t
has been said all along that the
people of this city and valley have
not fully measured the benefits to
come from the erection of this CO.
lossal enterprise, and we believe
that such is the case, but they
have realized and demonstrated
one thing that, they grow beets
with profit and that in con- junction
with their fruit farms they can
make farming in the Grand Val
ley pay high premium upon
labor.
It was anticipated, when the
work on the factory was first be-
gun that today wsuld witness its
successful opening, for manufac-
ture of sugar, but the delay in the
receipt of the structural iron has
retarded the opening event. How
ever, when the time is set, for the
opening, ample notice will be
given and jubilee day set apart
for the celebration of the event.
No more important event of a
character affecting the whole peo-
pie, in the sense of their CONNER
cial and industrial advancement
has ever taken place in the Grand
Valley and we would be veritable
chumps indeed did we not give
tho significance to the event
which its Importance justifies.
In speaking of the vast results
that has come to the city of Lehi,
Utah, through its great sugar
manufactory, prominent railway
and mining man of Salt Lake City
said few days ago, "The factory
at Lehi pays more money for
wages, and product than the pay
roll of any mine i'll Utah, and we
have some pretty large mines over
there" SO the public can see
what is in store for us through
the building up of the factory.

This was during the days of early

bic characters be endured the suffer-
ings and hardships incident to those
times. The well-known Indian
fighter, Gen. Exit" Carson, was then
the great warrior of the west, and
under him Major O'Brien fought in
! many battles against the red skins. 1t
was not unusual to hear him tell of
bis narrow escapes and the numerous
other experiences of his younger life.
At the opening of the war between
the States he returned it'll the army
to the East, and fought in a number
OF the most important engagements in
virginia. At the battle OF Frederick,
Nd, he was wounded and was sent to
a hospital in Alexandria where he re.
NAMED until after the surrender. AS
soon as he was sufficiently recovered to
enter upon his military duties he was
appointed to the position of a mount
ed messenger, and ranking as major,
en- the staff of General Howard, who
was then stationed at Washington.
Shortly afterwards he was ordered to
Baltimore to take charge Of the Lou
don Park Cemetery. Here he re-
NAMED for number of years, and
was then sent to Fayetteville, Arkan-
sas, to act in the same capacity for
the Federal Cemetery, at that place.
His next appointment was at Newbern
N. G. He came to Staunton seven
years ago, during which time he has
done much in identifying the burial
grounds of the Federal soldiers at
this place.
His greatest pride. and what he con-
sidered his highest honor, was the fact
that be had served under the Stars and
Stripes nearly all his life, wearing
always the uniform of blue. Although
he was a Union soldier, and had
fought bravely for the North, during
his stay in this community there has
never been an occasion upon which the
Confederate Veterans turned out that

noble spirit the members of the Stone

Washington. and Miss Mary O'Brien,
who has been spending the greater

The funeral took place. Friday
morning from the st. FraAcis Catholic
church, and, as he had requested, the
lnterment was IN the National
