NEEDS OF INSANE PRISONERS.

the past year it has been full and
more room is needed.
A new building would furnish
room to care for convalescents
during inclement weather and thus
avoid their being confined to rooms
in the dollhouse without proper
exercise. Fortunately in the past,
serious disease has been at mini
mum in this institution.
Should at any time unusual
sickness or any epidemic disease
appear, we would be sadly deficient
in hospital space. I think that
the prison is in every way, at the
present time, on a par with similar
institutions of this country, but
we should be progressive and strive
to excel. A healthy body is es-
sential to a healthy mind. A
healthy mind is adverse to wrong
and immortality. Hence my plea
for separate hospital building.
The state legislature seems re-
luctant to solve the problem of a
proper disposition of the insane
criminal and criminal insane.
Had we a larger building we could
at least give the insane inmate
better quarters than at present
and could take better care of him
until the legislature will consider
his case and provide for him as
humanity would dictate. I wish
to urge again upon your honorable
board the desirability of some
action upon this question by the
representatives of our common
wealth.
This institution is no place for
an insane man. You will notice
the increased number of inmates
transferred to the state hospital
for the insane during the past
year. You will also notice an
increase in dispensing calls. I
have also noticed in recent years
an increase of nervous disorders
among the inmates. Is not this
due in great measure to the
character of work now provided
for the prisoners? Since the adj
vent Of the shoe and Irvine making
industries in this institution, I
have noticed an increased demand
upon the medical department.
This without any increase in
population. Each prisoner has
his piece work at a machine. He
soon learns to run the machine
and gradually becomes a part of
it, certain set of muscles only
in use, no need of mental faculties.
He is an automaton as it we're.
He has the entire day as we'll as
night to think and brood over
what he will, fancied or real. I
find in fact, mental and nervous

Recommendations of DR.. B.
j. Merrill, State Prison
Physician, on the
Subject:

DIR. Burton j. Merrill who for
years has been the physician at
the state prison is strongly of
the opinion that the legis-
lature should make provision
for taking care of the insane
criminals without sending them to
the state hospitals. The superin-
tendent of the Rochester asylum
has protested against such class
of patients being sent there but
there is no other course to pursue
as the law stands. There is no
suitable place for combining acute
insane prisoners. In the biennial
report of the board of managers
of the state prison, just printed,
DIR. MerrilPs report on this sub
ject is embodied and is in part as
| follows:
The operation Of the medical
department of this prison during
the past two years has been un-
eventful as far as disease or opera
tive measures are concerned. We
have not suffered from an epidemic
Of any kind. tuberculosis has
not increased. A slight decrease
in this disease over the preceding
biennial period may be noted.
The death rate is small. The
sanitary condition Of the prison as
we'll as health of inmates is first
class.
The ailing and sick are we'll
taken care of. In the matter of
food for the sick, nursing and
medication, the inmates receive all
that can be asked for and will
compare favorably with the care
given in any outside hospital.
What we now need is a separate
hospital building with cells and
wards better adapted to handling
the sick. This building should
also contain a modern operating
room as we'll as dispensing room.
Such building, I think, could
be constructed without extravagant
cost as much of the work of build
ing could be done by inmates.
During summer we have beauti-
full park with fountain and flowers,
dry walks and a summer pavilion

allowed to remain during the day
time. In winter we have not
suitable or adequate accommoda-
tons for convalescents. The

CHAUTAUQUA.

President Leland of the Pierian
Circle is to be congratulated upon
the program which he arranged
for the first quarterly meeting of
the circle held on last Sunday
afternoon. It was one Of the best
meetings from every point of view
that we have ever held. Every
thing worked smoothly and pleas
antly.
The music, which is in charge
of the vice-president, was simply
excellent, no other word does it
justice.
The circle was favored by the
presence of about thirty invited
guests among whom we noticed
Deputy Warden and Mrs. Alex
ander, Mr.. and Mrs. W. G.. Jordon,
Mr.. Vince Connolly, Mrs.
Racquet, Officer and Mrs. James
Lyons, Officer J. M. Roberts, Miss
Mary Mckinney and several
strangers from out Of town. 1
take this opportunity Of thanking
those present for helping to make
our quarterly meeting a success as
it cannot fail to be a pleasure to
us to know that others are in
terested in our work. Two new
members were admitted and we
now have a membership of thirty
five, all interested in the work and
determined to make the circle a
success.
After the reading and approval
of the secretary's quarterly report
our special program was taken up,
which was as follows:

At the close Of the program the
president in neat little speech
expressed his regret at the absence
Of Warden Reeve and called upon
Deputy Warden Alexander who
responded by assuring us that he
had been an interested listener
and that so long as he was con-
nected with the institution we
would have his hearty support.
During the meeting a resolution
was handed the president by a
member which, at the close of the
meeting, was read by the secretary.
It referred to one of our members
who had been pardoned and would
soon leave us, wishing him sue
cess and God-speed. It was
passed by unanimous rising vote.
The circle then adjourned after
having held meeting of which
we may justly be proud.
