Insanity's Debt to Medical Science.
Insanity is now recognized as dis
ease which is the result of some func-
tional or organic disturbance of the
brain or of some injury or malformation
of that organ Be it said to the ever
lasting credit of medical science that it
has rescued the whole subject of the dis
eases of the brain and nervous system
from the region of myth and superstition
and placed ii on a scientific plane along
with the other diseases and injuries to
which human flesh is heir
The cid Iunatic asylums and the filthy
cells Of the county iails with all their
horrors where the victims Of dethroned
reason used to be confined and tortured
nave been abolished and in their place
we now have the modern hospital for
the insane, and it stands ON the same
footing in every respect as IA hospital
for diseases of the eye and ear or any
other medical speciality. 1t was not the
churches. but medical science, inspired
by desire to benefit mankind, which
taught the world that the insane are
our brothers still and that to them is
due the same Christian charity and care
as toeany others in distress. DR.. John
Girdner in North American Review.

OVATION TO BRYAN.
The Nebraskan Greeted by Thousands at
 His Opening Speech.


 Dallas. Oct. 4.-Never before in the history of Texas has man ever spoke to such crowd as that which greeted W. J. Bryan at the fair grounds Mon day night The grand stand of the race track ordinarily seats 4500 persons and this was crowded to it's utmost capacity. Under the grand stand there is room for 2000 more, the race course was even oc- cupied and outside were thousands who could get no nearer. It-is estimated that 15 900 people gathered to hear Bryan
 There were greyheaded men, young men and boys, young women and girls Democrats, Republicans, Populists, and men of every political complexion, and persons from every state in the union They were here not to see the great Texas state fair, but to hear the re- nowned Nebraskan speak and they heard him.
 Every word uttered by that great or ator was audible far beyond that of or dinary man and he held his audience spellbound for more than one and half hours, and they were still willing to hear him and appreciated his speech and drank his sayings with content and decision.
 Many time during his speech was he compelled to suspend and await the calming of the multitude, and many times did he use arguments that con yinced his hearers that he was the great est living American statesman. 50 plain did he make his arguments that even mere child could understand, still at the same time the way in which he delivered his remarks to his hearers was of oratorial design of which Bryan only can give.
 His address was to workingmen, and they were there to hear him and many
