that sum of no less than $150O0000O has been
mVestcc in these public asylums for the insane
In the United Kingdom, which he described as
tombs for the intellectually dead. He added
that S15OO0OO0 spent annually for their
maintenance; but pointed out that all this enor-
nous amount of money is expended by the
nation, not for those for whom it can have any
hope in the future in whom it can have any
confidence as good citizens, but for those who
represent their waste and decay-in short, that
1t was Of all public investments the most
productive. Lord Rosebery did not condemn this
expenditure as extravagant, did he intimate
that the lot of the insane should be rendered
more cruel by the dimnshment Of their COM
forts But he argued that some steps should
be taken to arrest the altoget her phenomenal in
crease of insanity During the last fifty years
while the population of the United Kingdom has
increased by IS per cent the number of lunatics
has augmented by go per cent
With regard to the causes of this growth of
lunacy, which is by no means confined to Eng
land. but which extends to all the civilized coun-
tries, he was unable to speak with any degree of
assurance and, save for the fact that % per
cent of insanity is medically ascribed to heredity
he was compelled to restrict himself to the cx-

Thus Lord Rosebery is inclined to attribute
much or the spread of dementia to the haste

greater part of his reign under restraint Leisure
exists to a much greater extent in the Old World
than in America, where everybody is led by ne
cessty, by heredity and by custom to labor for
the sake Of fame or of wealth. Where leisure is
applied to philanthropy, to study, ETC.. it ceases
to be leisure. But when not thus employed it
becomes idleness, and the latter is one of the
chief promoters OF insanity.
or course it cannot be denied that in America
the absence of repose is every year becoming
more pronounced and to those who can recall
conditions here twenty-five and thirty years
ago the change in this respect appears most
marked. People especially in the big cities,

they should make few mistakes under the

to the effect that second thoughts are always
the best. But here in America it is the first
thought which always obtains and almost in
varably with advantage. That Americans ex-
perience occasionally the need for quiet and
undisturbed reflection, however, is shown in a
very curious manner. In those of the churches

found prominent business men who retire
thither at the hour not for purposes of

than passing attention. Referring to the scheme

hoodoos for Lawrence. Fifteen to 0 tells
of hit and run game, very one sided,
but not entirely free from sensational
