In one of the Philadelphia asylums

ments known as suicide rooms"
These are set aside as harbors of
refuge for those patients vAo manifest
a strong desire to end tAsir lives.
Everything in these roens IL round.
There are no knobs or posts to the
beds. for the maniac would tie sheet
around any such projection and hang
himself For the same reason there
are no gas fixtures and no inside shut
ters. There are not even door knobs,
while the doors themselves are made
to open outward. When the men un-
dress their clothes are carefully re-
moved from the room. SO that they
may not be used for strangling their
owners. All the edges of bureaus. the
backs of chairs, etc, are carefully
rounded. SO that there may be no
points upon which the inmates might
beat their heads. No canes or sticks
are allowed in the rooms. The doors
are left open at night and keeper
parades incessantly up and down be-
fore them.-Chicago Chronicle.

A cop.ul.,on of n.foru.

New Orleans is undergoing a con-
vulsion of reform, SO severe that the
sale OF cigars is not allowed on Sun
day." said a northern man Just back
from the Crescent City the other day.
"The drug stores are allowed to keep
open. but while they can dispense
medicines and other articles usually
kept at such places. they can sell
neither cigars nor liquors. This strikes
northerner as all the more eccentric
because we all gather the impression
that New Orleans is a very cosmopoli-
tan city. and so 1t is In nearly all 9TH

In synopsis of his forthcoming
"explanation" to Governor Orman,
furnish exclusively to the fusion or
gan, State Treasurer Chipley has
shown the weakness of his cause by
explaining" everything except the
"Robber Seventh" warrant deal.
The letter to the governor is about
the weakest document, on its face,
ever produced. He makes a feeble
attempt to bolster up the statement
by plunging into matters foreign to
the question in hand, and incorpor-
ates grand stand play by saying
that four years ago A. M. Stevenson,
Earl B. Coe and others paid Thomas,
Bryant and Lee 1000 for an opin-
ion favorable to the payment of the
warrants. Mr.. Stevenson has already
explicitly denied the story. Mr.. Coe
is also explicit in his denial and says
that if Chipley is no nearer the
truth in his other statements than
he is in that one, his cause is with
out hope; that while he might value
Governor Thomas opinion, he doesn t

A local contemporary notes the
fact that the old patriotic spirit has
gone out of our Fourth of July cele-
brations and has almost become ex-
tinct. With great sorrow it makes
these observations and deplores the
unenthusiastic feeling and indiffer-
ence. 1t is to be feared there is no
balm in Gilead for the sadness of
this political Jeremiah, and that his
lamentations will fail to evoke a
change of sentiment. 1t is not in
human nature for remote generations
to rejoice with the same degree of
enthusiasm over the same things
that their forgotten ancestors did.
Why, indeed, should the sons of
2776 continue to celebrate politi
cal event a thousand years old with

value it at $1,000; that he never
heard Of the alleged opinion until
DR.. Chipley picked up the idle street
rumor and offered it as his defense
in the warrant deal.
State Treasurer Chipley's "explan-
alton" needs explaining.
He doesen't explain what became
Of the interest, amounting to about
$S7, 900.
He doesn't explain why the inte-
rest was paid in cash and the face of
the warrants in checks. He doesn't
explain why he happened to have
that amount OF cash on hand at that
particular time. He doesn't explain
why, as announced in letters sent to
warrant holders, there would never
be another opportunity of getting
cash for the warrants" He doesn't
explain why the warrants suddenly
jumped to par, including interest,
when they could have been bought
in at any time by the state for half
the face value and no interest. In
other words, he doesn't explain why
he paid out $S0, 900 for the warrants,
when they could have been redeem
ed for about $4,000, thus saying
$83, 900 to the state. He doesn't ex-
plain why, in his original statement
to the newspapers, he said that ST.
900 worth Of the warrants were in
vested in the school fund, while rs a
matter Of fact the school fund in
vestment amounted to only $50, a
difference of $28,947.
There are some other things he
doesn't explain. He doesn't ex-
plain why he notified the governor
Of the transaction after the deal was
completed, instead of before. He
doesn't explain why he kept State
Auditor Crouter in ignorance of the
payment of the warrants, nor does he
explain why he held the reports back
nearly q month, when they should
have been sent to the auditor at once.
He doesn't explain why he could not
walk 200 feet to the governors Office
and inform him that the warrants
were about to be paid. He doesn't
explain why he was the only state
treasurer in twelve years who could
be induced" to pay the warrants.
There are some other Things he
doesn't explain. He doesn't explain
Why he rsked up old opinions on
which former state treasurers had
refused to act, and took them IS his
authority for paying the warrants.
He doesen't explain how he secured
an opinion from the attorney gener
ais office, embodying advice which
the states legal adviser never ap-
proved, but which he afterwsrd con-
demned. He doesn't explain why
he got this opinion and advise secret
ly and said nothing to the attorney
general. He doesn't explain why
the payment of these warrants, e1-
tending over number Of days, was
not known to newspaper representa-
tives, who under ordinary conditions
know every move of importance be-
ing made by the state officials.
There are some other things he
doesn't explain, but the list is 80
long that it may be covered with the
statement that his explanation does
not explain anything. It simply ad-
mits, between the lines, that delib-
