ONLY WOMEN NURSES.
State Board of Control Find The,
MANAGE insane E.etter

Special to Republican.
Des Afoines, Oct 2S.-As a result of
an experiment which has been success
fully tried for the past three months.
by Superintendent Crumbacker, of the
state hospital at Independence, the
number of women nurses employed at
the state hospital Is likely to be large
ly increased.
Superintendent crurnbacker has
turned over the building in which are
the worst in the entire hospital, entire
ly to the care of women nurses. The
women have the management of the
building, and have demonstrated that
they are able to perform the work sue
cessfuly. with the aid of one or two
male attendants, to assist them in es-
pecialiy violent cases.
Judge G. S. Robinson. of the board of
control. stated on Saturday that a great
Improvement had been noted within the
two or three months during which the
experiment had been tried. The pa
tients are better behaved" said Judge
Robinson and those who were for
merly especially difficult to control,
seem much more amenable to the rules
of the hosp ital under the new regime.
The experiment. has justified itself.
In addition to the department which
is under the control of the women
nurses, two women are in the receiv-
ing ward of the hospital, and at the
Cherokee hospital a woman, with her
husband, is employed in the same de-
partment.
The result of Superintendent Crum-
hackers experiment is being watched
with great interest both in this and
other states.

POTTS CASE GOES OVER.
Governor cun,mins Takes Another
Week to Consider New Evidence.

Des Moines, Oct 21.-Judgment was
deferred again in the Potts case, which
came up for hearing No before Gov
ernor Cummins on Monday. The sec
ond delay Was due largely to the IN
PRODUCTION OF new evidence by Mr..
Potts in the form or a certified copy
of a decision in the district court of
Douglass county. Neb., which declares
that Lewis Potts and Melissa Potts
shall have TIE custody of the child.
Mabel Potts, of Segerholm. and that
the child was unlawfully restrained of
her liberty, when in the custody OF
Hannah Anderson, who is the guardian
appointed for the child at the request
OF the mother.
This is the finding of the court in the
first of the two habeas corpus cases
which have been brought To secure
possession of the child. The second
case, which was instituted by the
mother. whom Mr.. and Mrs. Potts
claimed had abandoned the child TO
them was in a county court of Omaha,
which corresponds to an Iowa justice
court 1t is the contention of the at
torneys for Mr.. Potts, that this decis-
ion constitutes a strong claim in favor
OF their client.
