killed from time to time and fed to the
leopards and tigers.

MOVING PICTURES rs
CURE FOR THE INSANE
Experiment in Dunning Asylum
Pronounced a Success by DR..
Podstada.

CHICAGO, April 9-Moving pictures as
an aid to the cure of insane patients have
been tried for the first time at the Dunning
Asylum. DR.. V. II. Podstada, superin-
tendent, said of the test that the effect was
beneficial The performance the canvas
drew the attention and interest of every
one of the 400 patients gathered in the en-
tertainment hall. The seemingly realistic
pictures of figures which appeared and
disappeared in the rim of light opened a
new channel for their new thoughts and
led them away from the particular halluci-
nation or delusion which affected their
minds. The excitable patients seemed to be
quoted and Gained by the pictures. Those
suffering from chronic melancholia APP
peared to be stimulated and aroused from
their constant bCooding over imaginary
wrongs and showed an unusual interest in
what was going on.
As result of the experiment a NOV
ing-picture machine will be purchased for
the asylum and entertainments will be
given once or twice each week for the
benefit of all patients who are not so
violent as to need constant restraint

A Wise Woodchuck.

The fame of Abe COINS geological

snakes and young cougars and little

into the Zoo. 1t is said, on no less
authority than Abe Cohn himself. Tia

Some animal must have escaped and
given away the secret signal which

things about this wonderful geological
garden which it gets direct from Mr..

half the facts than raise any suspic-
