palladium Specially


Indianapolis, June 14.-FreQuent in
auiries come to the office Of the board
Of state charities as to what is to be
done with insane persons who are con-
tined in county jails for the want Of
places in the insane hospitals OF the
state. The condition is due in most
part to the overcrowded conditions in
the hospitals for the insane, which
results in many of these unfortunates
being taken to poor asylums or jails
In many of the counties. Not long
ago n letter was received from the
superintendent of the Crawford coun-
~ poor asylum. presenting the case
Of an epileptic, of whom he says:
II have to keep >In chained to the
floor In order to prevent him running
away and frightening the people in the
ueighborhood.'
A somewhat similar letter has been
received from the sheriff of Pike coun-
~ concerning man of whom he
says:
HE was sent to the poor farm. but
owing to the fact that there Is no pro-
vision for the case OF such persons. he
escaped and was running at large over

He was then taken to the Jail
where they keep him confined in a cell

TOLD IN A DREAM.
The Message . Dying Girl Conveyed to
Hor Brother.

Hor Brotncr.
This is an absolutely true dream
story: certain young lady. whom We
will call Mary A. was recovering
from Illness. The doctor had declared
her to be out of danger. and her
friends and relatives were rejoicing In
ing a visit one day from sister.
gravely assured her that she was go
ing to die. The sister poohpoohed the
idea and treated it as an invalid's fan
cy. Miss A.. however. with the ut
most caimness, repeated her state
ment. She was certain that she would
die that night and begged her sister to
to say goodby. Thinking to humor
her. the sister complied. One person
was absent from this strange family
gathering-a brother. who was at sea
and was expected home 10 a week or
two But 1t does not matter" Miss
A. quietly observed. Il saw him last
night in dream and said goodby to
him In his cabin" Before the sun
rose again Miss AS prediction had
come true: she was dead. That. how
ever. is not the Strangest part of this
weird story. When in due time the
sailor brother reached port he was met
by his other sister. who began to tell
him the sad news. "Ah." be interrupt
ed. you need not tell me. Mary is
dead. knew 1t. for she came to me
one night in my dreams and told me
she was going to die and wanted to
say goodby." On comparing dates IT
was found that the dreams were
dreamed on the selfsame night-Lon-

no provision to care. This is quite
in contrast with conditions in some
of the other states. Recently it was
stated by the president of the board
of state charities that no insane per-
son in Wisconsin need to be sent to
any Jail or poor asylum OF remain out
of the hospital for the insane for
twenty-four hours and that such has
been the condition for the last sixteen
years. This is quite in contrast with
the condition regarding the care of
insane in Indiana.

AN UNWkSHED PRINCE.
The Lesson That Ended His Kicks
About Morning Baths.

Ths Lesson That Ended His Kicks
About Morning Baths.
When Emperor William II. was
small boy he had strong objection TO
being washed in the morning. and his
governess. having had some unpleas-
ant experiences with him and being in
some doubt as to what she had better
do, appealed TO his father, the then
Grown Prince Frederick. Frederick an
swered, 'The next time he gives any
trouble on this score leave him alone
TO his own pleasure and report TO me-"
Naturally it Yves not long before the
young prince refused to go through
the publication process, and the gov
erness followed the orders received.
Now. the boy had a little carriage
and was very fond Of driving out IN
the morning. and he generally ordered
the coachman TO go By way Of the
Brandenburg gate, as 1t amused and
flattered him to see the soldiers in the
barrack. just inside the gate. turn out
and present arms as the heir to the
empire passed their quarters. Accord
ingiy on the morning Of his disobe-
dience the order was. as usual, '"To
the BrandenbuFg gate" and the car
riage rolled rapidly thither. But what
was the amazement and the rage Of
the princeling on arriving there to see
nc soldiers except those on guard. and
they took not the slightest notice Of
him. In towering passion he order
ed the coachman to return to the pal
ace, where, rushing into his fathers
room, he complained Of the indecent
behavior OF the guard and demanded
their condign punishment.
But his father only smiled and said
in the gsntlest voice: ''Fuer unge
