 Same Casem of Vf0Ieuee.

of the incidents connected with Illness death made to the coroner's jury were made to the Investigating commission.
 Some Cases of Violence.
 The Commission, no doubt, got from the evtdenc that there were some hfd- den and sporadic cases of violence from nurses towards the patients who were violent and dangerous. At the same time 1t was shown that every nurse guilty of the least bit of violence was immediately discharged from the hos pital.
 It was. moreover, shown that nurse had been discharged because he had spoken coarsely to a patient.
 Such instances of reported violence were always upon patients who were dangerous and who had attacked the nurses. But this was not excused by the hospital rules, and the nurse was discharged, If a patient had any mark or bruise which could not be satisfac- torily explained.
 It was shown that the nurses were given rather thorough supervision by the hospital authorities. The com mission was, however, surprised at the small salaries paid the nurses. The men started in on salaries of SIP or $15 and were gradually raised until they were $25 per month.
 The salary list, it was easy to see from the line of questioning, was too small, in the opinion of the commits sion. The recommendation of the com mission will undoubtedly touch upon the salary question. It can safely be predicted, too, that the commission will deal in its report with the question of supervision. whether 1t does or does not recommend any change from the present system.
 The food served at the hospital was the subject of much of the charges. at was the subject, too. of much of the questioning of the commission. The hospital authorities draw from the State the sum of SAYS for the main tenance of each inmate. Out of this the salaries of superintendent and med ical forces. of the nurses. maintenance and clothing are provided.
 The building fund of the hospital in recent years has also come from this slender allowance from the State. It Is regarded as very probable that the commission will ask for more liberal treatment by the State than this.

THE DEBT TO MISSIONARIES,
New York Evening Post.

New York Evening Post.
Dispatches from London speak of a
serious strain between the American
congregational missionaries in Natal
and the authorities. The Govern
ment's hostility is based on the alleg-
ed fact that in the formidable Zulu in
surrection Of 1906 the spirit if disloy-
atty was particularly strong among
the natives connected with Christian
missions. The Congregational system
Of erecting churches under native pas
tors is specially objected to, because
it tends to inculcate in the natives a
spirit of independence which is in
compatible with the safe maintenance
Of European control. The charges Of
disloyalty have been denied by the
secretary Of the American board of
foreign missions, who asserts that out
of the thousands who participated in
last years. uprising in Natal, "our
