LOCATES The FUND
WEST SIDE LEVEE IS
UNEARTHED
NOT IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE
Seems to BE in Sinking Fund-AId.
Moriarty's Request for $4,000
Will Scarcely BE
Successful.

Aid Moriarty of the Sixth ward, sew
eral weeks ago made demand for an ap-
preparation to improve and repair the
East side levee, the money, nearly $1,000,
to come from the fund originally created
and set aside for it's purchase and main
tenance, but he IS not likely to get it.
After a search, lasting over many
weeks, Assistant Corporation Attorney
Griggs yesterday located the unexpended
balance, about $20,000 but under the act
which gave it existence it cannot be
touched except for certain improvements
Much of it was located in the sinking
fund and will go to pay for the bonds
when they, mature in a few years, Trans
ferred from fund to fund and hidden be-
meath the intricacies that characterize
the comptroller's department, the ident-
ity of the fund was a puzzle and called
for much burning of the midnight Oil
in the examination of records and past
council proceedings.
Mr. Moriartys demand for the appro-
priation really came at the request Of
Sixth ward residents, who fear a repeti-
ton of the floods that in times past have
been SO dana ging. Below Robert street
the lowlands are wholly unprotected, and
it was planned to put up dyke that
would be q safeguard for all time to
come.
From Robert street east, property own
ers and manufacturers have raised the
levee considerably, while the new Omaha
spur track has furnished a solid wall
that will be of incalculable benefit.
From Robert street east to the city
limits is where future trouble is expect
ed. Mr. Moriarty, however, fully recog-
nizes the necessity of the Improvement
and will make further efforts to secure a
sufficient appropriation.

The jury in the case Of Emma Coplitz
against the city of st. Paul returned
verdict fort plaintiff yesterday aft

The suit was brought by Miss Coplitz
to recover damages for injuries sus-
tanned in tallyho accident on the even

the condition of the street was response
bic for the accident, and the suit was
brought against the city on those
grounds.
While the jury brought in a verdict
for the plaintiff, there were special find
ings of such a nature as will probably
set aside the verdict When the court
asked the jury if they found that Vane
Gibbons, who had taken the reins from
the driver and was driving himself, was
not guilty of negligence they answered
that he was. The court held therefore
that Miss Koplitz was also negligent in

KEEP Them AT WORK
so SAYS DIR. KILBOURNE CONCERN
ING INSANE PATIENTS OF
THE STATE
EMPLOYMENT Is BENEFICIAL
SAYS the Work Would Also Make
Them Nearly Self-Supporting-
Interesting Paper Read at
Quarterly Conference.

Dr. Arthur +. Kilbourne, superlntend-
ent of the Rochester hospital for the IN
sane, in a paper presented yesterday a1l-
ernoon before the quarterly conference
of the state board Of control with the
superintendent of the public institutions,
earnestly advocated the employment OIL
insane patients at whatever hnanclal eA-
pense it may entail. AS to that now
ever, the doctor argues that the inmates
of the insane hospitals may be SO en-
ployed as to make them self-supportlng
or nearly SO, although the paramount
consideration in his mind is the beneht
to the patients themselves, which Will re-
suit from keeping them employed and
their minds agreeably occupied. The doc
tor said in part:
Next to the direct personal care and
treatment of patients no other subject
is of SO much Importance as the matter
of employment. 1t is desirable that they
should be kept employed, first for the
benefit of the patients themselves. and
then from an economical standpoint. 1t
is the consensus of opinion that the ideal
employment where the climate is prop1-
tious is agriculture. Work on the farm
and in the garden in Minnesota is neces-
sarily limited to the milder months, So
in winter indoor work should be planned.
Suitable work of this character could be
apportioned among the institutions be-
tween which there could be an inter
change of products.
ITO give employment to the largest
number of patients in the summer time
farm colonies could be formed about the
hospitals. Each settlement could consist
of one-quarter section of land with suit
able, plain substantial quarters for the
accommodation of the limited number of
men required to work that acreage. The
number of these colonies could be in
creased with the population of the insti-
tutions. This plan exists in other states,
and was recommended in the last two re-
ports of the board of trustees of the in
sane hospitals.
For the systematic employment of the
insane patients in winter shops could be
provided where they could be trained in
the mechanical work necessary to the au-
tonomy of the institution. Broom MAX
ing, net weaving, modelling in clay, bas-
ket-making, lacemaking, embroidery, and
even china painting have been employed
with marked success in some of the in
stitutionS of this character

VANITY OF EGYPTIANS
DIR. WRIGHT TELLS OF ANCIENT
FASHION REQUIREMENTS.


The fourth of series of six lectures
or "Egypt--Past and Present. given by
Rev. John Wright at the Peoples church
last night, dealt with manners customs
and peculiarities of dress of the ancient
Egyptians. Vanity was just as preva-
lent then as many assert it is now. and the
young woman of the present day who
spends many hours over her coiffure, if
chided, may cite the case of the Egyptian
woman of quality, who must take with
her wherever she goes, large box to
hold her carefully prepared and elaborate
wig. But vanity among Cleopatra $
countryWomen was not confined to her
sex. The Egyptian Anthony was not in
trim 70 meet his Cleopatra if the accesso-
ries of his wardrobe did not number
among them the earthen pot with the
liquid for blackening the eyebrows, and
most important of all, if the size of it is
a guide, an immense false beard. DR..
Wright closed his lecture with this re-
mark: Ladies and gentlemen, we began
our lectures with the arts of Egypt. We
close this one with the artiicials.

He argued that in arranging diet for the
inmates of an insane hospital some spe-
ciaI study should be made of each indi-
vidual patient. The patients could be
divided into large classes, according TO
their peculiarities, but discrimination
should be exercised in SO dividing them.
Some patients were physically hearty
and able to<eat& heavily and digest their
food without difficulty while others were
impaired physically as we'll as mentally
and found difficulty in the digestion OF
even the simplest kinds of food. Others
refused to eat, and others would bolt
their food if permitted to do so. In fact
the different classes were almost 1nnum-
cradle.
Specially Prepared Foods.
The doctor related his experience with
specially prepared food for patients
whose digestion was impaired. He said
he cooked meats with the bones slowly
for twelve hours at uniform tempera-
ture of 100 to 100 degrees without permit
ting it to come 10 a boil and at the end
of that time had added vegetable ma
terials and cooked them with the meat
for twelve hours more, thereby produc-
ing a composition which was almost pre-
Gigested. That composition he had fed
to some of the patients at one meal each
day with beneficial results. At the other
two meals these patients had been given
cereal foods easy of digestion, and they
had shown marked improvement.
DR.. Rogers, of the school for the fee
ble-minded at Faribault, said that since
his institution had been divided into diff
ferent buildings he had found it possible
TO provide different diet according to the
various needs of the patients. This
change he had found to be beneficial.
Frank Randall. superintendent of the
reformatory at ST. Cloud, said that his
wards unless really i'll and under the
care of the physician who would pre-
scribe their diet, were, as q rule, hearty
caters, and he found but little trouble
in contending with weight OF undigest-
ed food upon their stomachs, such as he
had heard so touchingly referred to by
DR.. Tomlinson Plain nutritious foods
were provided for the inmates of the re-
formatory, he said, in ample quantity
and they seemed to thrive upon their
diet.
Mrs. James presented for the consider
alton of the board of control and the SUI
perintendents of Institutions tables show

various kinds of foods and their chem
zeal composition, and other tables shoW

HUMAN LIFE TIGHTENING.

The insurance actuary is myster.
ious, plodding person, supposed always
to be buried up to his neck in flgures,
ard devoting all his energies to dlscov-
ering how long persons of different ages
ought to live. How he finds out is Sc
cret of his craft, but the result of his
labors appear in neatly printed 'exp7cta-
ton tables, by referring to wnlch you
NAV find out how many more years are
liable to elapse before you shuttle OF this
mortal coil.
These tables are indispensable to In
sl!rance companies in determining the
III emiums they will charge for contract
ing to pay certain sums, more or less,
to the surviving wife or other relatives
Of deceased person. 1t is easy to see
that the amount of the premium depends
on the expectation of life, and the sum
to be paid over when death occurs
The expectation tables now in use are,
we believe, about forty years DID, a
new table has recently been computed
suits. 1t is found that human life has
heightened by more than a year and a
half since the old tables were made; III
other words, for example, where the flrst
table showed that the average LIE OF q
group of individuals who had reached the
age of ten would be fifty-nlne years ana
nearly ten months, the second table
shows that the average life for such
group now would be sixty-one years and
five months. The same ratio applies to
all ages, and the result OF the discovery
is likely to be a lowering of premiums
Referring to this exhibit and outlook,
the New York Mail and Express says;
IF the premium rate can be lowered
here, it may be set down as one of the
most far-reaching and significant gains
of cur civilization-far-reachi because
a steady and by no means tagging prog
ress is making here toward the time
when life insurance policy will be in
the hands of every able-bodied head of a
family; significant because it would be
the inerrant testimony of averages to the
betterment of humanity in this country.
If men live nineteen months longer than
tufy, it means that they must be better
clothed, better housed, better fed.
Probably the Improvement is quite as
marked in this country as in England.
and it is said that the American Actu-
arial association IS ABOUT to look into
the matter. The undertaking will be a
laborious one, and its results will be

Capt. Chadwick in his statement today
said that the precautionary dispatches
from the navy department in regard to
attacking the Spanish shore batteries mac

Schley. This statement is regarded as OF
great Importance by Admiral Schley S

admirafs own statements.
Capt Sigsbee testified concerning his
interview on the Brooklyn with Commo-
dore Schley. Capt. Eaton was the COM

to events which occurred just before and
