THE INSANE ASYLUM.

The matter of management of the
Insane Asylum has had the attention
OF the Health committee for some time
and was the subject for hearing by
that committee a few weeks ago when
those interested were present and stated
their sides of the question. The re-
port is here given:
THAT upon investigation we find
the Insane Asylum TO be under the
supervision of committee of the Board
of Health. on which committee are two
physicians. This committee is in
majority of the Board of Health and
has full powers for the regulation of
the affairs of the Asylum and treatment
of the inmates.
+ETo add another board as contem-
plated by House Bill No. 134 would
bring about a conflict of authority and
an uuwIeldv administration of treat
ment that could only be detrimental
TO the welfare. of the patients and use-
fulness Of the Insane Asylum.
At such time as the resources of
the Territory viii permit provision for
a consulting physician would be vel
come, though other items are more es-
sentiaI at present.

of no instance of injustice being done

SKATING RINK FUSS
GETS into COURT
f. w. Davis swcars Out Warrant
Against Clyde Rittenhouse
Charging Disorderly Conduct.

E. w. Davis, one of the proprie-
tors of the Davis & Bacon skating
rink in Glen Elk, Thursday morn
ing swore out a. warrant in Magis-
trate Gordon's court against Clyde
Rittenhouse, charging him with dis
orderly conduct at the rink the
night before. The warrant was
served on Rittenhouse and he was
required to appear before the magis-
trate Friday for a hearing.
The issuance of the warrant was
the result of a wrangle between the
two at the skating rink Davis put
Rittenhouse of the rink floor be-
cause he thought Rittenhouse was
skating too fast, which is against
one of the rules of the rink. A
number of Rittenhouse's friends
seemed to think that he hadn't vio-
lated the rule and they formed a
circle about the two and tried to
prevent Davis from ejecting him.
After considerable dispute the fuss
blew over with no injury resulting.
II will now be argued on It's merits
in the magistrates court.
