"One morning a man came to ME with
letter written on stamped paper and
signed with the name of clergyman OF
my church in town in Massachusetts,
writes Rev. David NJ. Steele in Ladies'
Home journal. His story, told in great
embarrassment. was that he had run
away from home. According to the letter,
his aged mother was dying with grief,
and the appeal of his rector was to the
man to come back at once. The minis
ter's check for So, drawn on a bank in
this same town, was inclosed with which
to pay car fare. He was distressed and
was anxious to go. but the difficulty was

memorandum book was found containing
the name of nearly every clergyman in
Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Pitts

there were four columns, headed Name,

AN INSANE MANS PATIENCE

ed on n Pass Key.
During the recent visit Of the legisla-
tive inquiry committee to the Eastern In
diana Hospital For the Insane Superin-
tendent Smith pointed out the only pa
tient in the institution who is wearing 4
pair Of leather gloves chained to a belt.
Such is this mans ingenuity that if his
hands were not fastened the institution
would be in constant trouble because of
his skill in picking locks. He came from
Cleveland. Ind. and was committed be-
cause Of hOmicidal tendencies.
Three times he escaped. notwithstand-
ing the vigilance Of the attendants, each
time going direct to Fort Wayne, where
he was recaptured. After his third re-
capture the riot act was read to the at
tendants, but a fourth time he got away,
leaving no trace Of mischief behind.
Again he fled to Fort Wayne, and there
the hospital authorities found him.
After his return the superintendent be-
gan quizzing him as to the manner of es-
cape, and the patient laughingly asserted
that it was by means of a pass key. The
patient was so elated over the discom-
future OF the attendants that he was will
ing to describe the process Every at
and he aattered the attendant to believe
that he could make a perfect picture of
his key. The attendant humored him,
and the patient made two sketches, one
Of which he concealed, while he surrend-
cred the other. Some time before he had
found a piece Of a caseknife in the yard
attached to the hospital, and he stole
small piece of a three cOrnered file in the
engine room. II was part of his duty to
assist in carrying food to the patients,
and upon entering the kitchen he always
complained of feeling cold, and while
warming himself behind the range he
placed the knife blade on the heated sur
face. 1t took two years to heat it suiIi-
GENTLY to draw the temper out, and he
spent another year filing the knife so that
it could be used as u key.
Meanwhile the attendants had become
suspicious that he contemplated an es-
cape, and nightly his clothing was taken
away and placed in two different rooms.
The guard passed his bed every half hour
during the night, but he watched his op-
pOrtunity and finally got all his clothing
in hand, and after the guard had made
his first round he unlocked the doors and
walked away, refastening them as lie
passed.
The key is now preserved among the
curios Of the institution. A peculiar fea-
ture is that the patient was unaccus-
toned to the use of tools before admis-
sion to the hospital and never displayed
any mechanical ingenuity until he began
conspiring for his own release.-Chicago
