Lace-Making by Insane.

Lace-making as an occupation for the
women patients at the Rochester insane
asylum is now an established industry,
according to DR.. A. F. Kilbourn. super
intendent of the institution The doc
tor says that in the little time in which
the patients have been employed along
this line the most excellent result have
been obtained, and it is his intention to
extend the idea and enlarge the indus
try as rapidly as possible. Occupation is
essential to the people in the insane hos
pitfalls, and while farm work has been
sufficient for the men, there has always
been difficulty in providing the women
with work. This problem is now solved.
The lace produced is disposed of
readily to asylum visitors Beside fur
nlshing occupation. in several cases it
is believed it will furnish a means of
gaining livelihood when the patients
are discharged.

LEFT A TRAIL OF BLOOD.
Man Named Miller from New York
State Created Excitement in the
Central City Last Night.

Quite a little excitement was Great
ed in the central part Of the city last
night by an intoxicated man who was
found wandering around on Adams
avenue by Patrolman McMullen with a
serious cut on his right wrist from
which the blood was flowing freely.
eyed persons. who whispered to the
officer in awe-stricken tones that the
man had been stabbed.
Patrolman McMullen escorted the in
jured man to DR.. Heilner's office in
the Burr building, where the cut was
bandaged temporarily and where he
was allowed to remain until the Lack
wanna hospital ambulance, which had
been summoned. arrived. In the
meantime Patrolman Thompson began
an investigation.
Beginning at the corner of Adams
avenue and Spruce street, where the
man had been picked up,he followed the
trail of blood which he had left in his
track. This trail led to Lackawanna
avenue, thence to Washington avenue
and thence along that thoroughfare
to the passage running several feet be-
low the sidewalk and between the Con-
nell and Commonwealth buildings.
Here he found the solution of the
mystery. Thebroken pieces of a window
lay at the bottom of the steps leadins
down the passage in a pool of clotted
blood. The injured man in all proba-
bility had lurched down the steps and
in falling had struck his wrist against
the window opening into the cellar,
cutting 1t open.
The man was kept at the Lackawan-
ma hospital just long enough to give
the surgeons time to bandage up his
wrist properly. He refused to tell any
one who he was, hut it is understood
that his name is Miller and that he is
a hay merchant from New York state.

FIREMEN QUIT WORK.
They Hampered the South Mill Of
the L. I. & s. Company to a
Considerable Extent.

Thirty-two firemen and a number OF
coal unloaders and laborers quit work
at the South mil lof the IIackawanna
Iron and Steel company yesterday af-
ternoon, as the result of the refusal OF
General Manager Henry Wehrum to
grant the demands of the firemen for
more pay.
The unloaders and laborers who
struck admitted they had no gricv-
ances other than that they objected
to working with "scab'' firemen. AL
though all operations at the mill were
considerably impeded during the early
part of the afternoon and much delay
caused by the refusal Of men to take
the strikers places, last night the
greater part of the vacancies were
filled.
The fremen are the only unionized
branch of employees at the works. For
some time past. much dissatisfaction
has been current among them. on ac-
count of their wages, which they
claimed were not high enough. Sat-
urday a wage scale was presented to
General Manager Wehrum, with the
statement that unless a favorable an
swer was received by 2 o'clock Mon
day afternoon the firemen would go
out. No such answer was forthcoming
and therefore promptly at o'clock
yesterday afternoon the thirty-two
firemen knocked off work.
Substitutes We're recruited from the
laborers. but the men whose duty 1T
is to unload the coal for the firemen
fatty refused to work for the substf-
tutes, and they too quit. A number
of laborers refused to act as tiremen or
unloaders, and as result, at o'clock
there were probably between fifty and
sixty men who had given up their
places. superintendent George Bar
nard personally attended to the work
Of assigning new men to the vacant
places.

mands of the strikers We're. he re-
Piled: Manager Wehrum refused
their demands, which were Of highly
eXorbitant nature"
1t is understood that the fremen
asked for a raise in wages which
would increase their daily earnings
from approximately SLIGO to s1.So.
Shorter hours were also demanded.
