bleeding piles came back on me, and

The trustees of the Worcester Insane
Hospital have concluded their investiga-
ton of the charges of mismanagement
and neglect made by % former nurses
gainst DR.. Hosea NJ. Quimby. the super
intendent, and they find that the charges
were not based IN fact. The charges
made by the former attendants relate to:
First. insufficient supervision and ignor-
ance of what occurs in the hospito1 sec
ond, bad food; third, lack of bedding and
bed clothing; fourth, rats. bugs and YER
min; fifth, oveTcrowding of patients; ;
sixth. neglect of patients; seventh, long
hours required of attendants.

versity. The association which has gen.
eral supervision of the private halls in
which the girls live. has passed on the
matter. after many stormy meetings. and
the faction in favor of drawing the color
line won by decisive majority. The con-
troversy arose over a year ago when
