Our State Hospitals.

Some of those who have followed closely
tie investigation at Williamsburg have
already reached. tho following consul
sions:
That the appropriations for State hos
pitfalls are not sufficiently large to meet
4 the demands.
That the officers and attendants are
underpaids git is, said, tl>os their average
pay is @ per cent less than many other
State.
That simple, healthful occupation should
be provided for patients who are able
TO work, and that for this purpose each
hospital should have some sort OF
factory.
That each hospital should have an at
tractive amusement hall for use Of pa
tients during bad weather
That there should he night attendants
In every ward every night, and all the
night.
Our State hospitals are not penal in
situations. Men and women are sent there
b not because they have broken the laws,
sent there 10 be treated for disease, and
they should have the most humane and
scientific treatment, with the end always
q in view OF restoring them. II possible, To
\ health and sanity If they are hopelessly
aIane, ,heir condition Is so much the
more pitiahle and deserves SO much the
more our tenderest consideration. The
State has done nobly by her hospitals
for the insane, but she has not yet done
enough. She must not stint them. The
extra money now required TO make then,
complete and thoroughly efficient could
not he better expended.

Richmond and the Railroads.

councilman Morton's resolution, call
. ,nr on the city government TO memorial
lie the Corporation Commission as %
means to compel the Atlantic Coast Line
Railroad to give the community proper
service, is . good step towards forcing
that railroad to do Its duty.
no railroad in the South, and few IN
the world has made more money than
the Atlantic Coast Line. 1t has piled
,p, and is still accommodating, enormous
fortunes for the original stockholders,
and to-day, its stock is worth approxi-
,mately one thousand dollars a share
when compared pro rata with tire sell
( ing price of fifteen years ago. But there
has been no comrnensurate reduction IN
{ rates or improveent. sin===service,
For eight years thes~morning papers
snd other Richmond interests affected
by poorly arranged and more indiffer-
ertly maintained schedules, have been
at the mercy Of the Atlantic Coast Line
Railroad, which has utterly failed 70
/. keep its schedules and to make posi-
bic prompt and regular northern con-
uections
Freight service is of even more i'm
portance than mail or passenger SER
vice, and the Atlantic c,r-. Line has
been equally regardless of public right
q In this particular In the Investigation
row being held by the Corporation Com
mission number Of facts that con-
Germ the dealings of the railroads with
*.tiie people will be brought out-and from
these facts let US hope the Corporation
Commission will establish its right to
compel the rich and selfish railroads to
give some adequate service for the
heavy taxes they levy And no rail-
read has earned more or done less for
the community dependent on it ttlan that
same Atlantic Coast Line.

Smoke to Save Trees From Frost.

Vice-Consul Risdorf writes that the
Experimental Gardening Association,
Frankfort Sachsenhausen, has made
some trials with fumigation against
night frost. which in the present tseagon
is frequently very tnjur4o us. INT April
nearly all the trees in the orchard were
in full bloom. In expectation OF night
frost an experiment was made by fumi-
cation with naphthalene. II was sue
cess, and the trees were soon envelopcd
in dense smoke, but 1t was very ex-
pensiye proceeding, seven flames having
consumed 30 Kilograms OF naphthalene
in one hour TO cnvelop all the trees
in smoke ESQ Kilograms would have been
barely sufficient. A new preparation Of
the chemical mandatory at Floershe!m
that was tried on April Goth gave q
better effect. The production. OF, q COM
pnratively large volume OF dense smoke
during one hour required only 2tkilo-
grams. These experiments arc being
continued. s4
