rebuilt and made perfectly safe and
new bleachers accommodating 5000
more people have been erected.

about the grounds daily and visit
each city in turn. The races will
be of the finest and will be pulled
off" amid absolutely clean surround
ings.

Insanity Shows Increase.

Madison, Wis, July 29.-Whethe1
insanity is increasing in proportion
to population is a question, but the
numbers in the state and county in.
situations have increased from $3.50
to 1868 within the past year, accord
ing to the statistics just filed with
the state board of control. Ofthese
figures about so per cent of the in.
mates are men and 40 per cent
women. The average ratio of in
sanity is l to about every 1872 people.
Thirty-two counties of the state
have hospitals for the care of these
unfortunates. On June 80, there
were 1892 in county asylums; 545 in
the Milwaukee hospital for the in
sane; 500 in the state hospital for
the insane at Mendoza and 632 in
the Northern insane hospital at
Oshkosh.
Secretary Tappins of the state
board of control says the number of
insane, who are being cared for in
county and state hospitals, is rapid
ly increasing, but he says that is
not to be taken as an indication
that insanity is increasing in pro-
portion to population. In recent
years the methods of care for the
insane have become SO humane that
people, who were formerly cared for
in homes, are being sent to institu-
tons.
AT the present time 747 people are
being cared for in the home for the
feeble minded at Chippewa Falls.
This institution is overcrowded.
There are over 1000 applicants pend
ing admission at the present, de-
clares Secretary Tappins.
The following statistics show the
number in the different state insti-
tutions on June 30, 1906, and this
year:
