FORTY Per
CENT CRAZY
That's the Theory of Dr.. Card.
ner-What to do With Them
is a Question.
HUNDREDS OF INSANE IN THE
STATE PENiTENTlARY.

That at least 40 per cent o.
the convicts in the state Deni'
tentiaries are insane, is the be
lief of DR.. I. w. Gardiner, Of
Madisonville, a member of the
State Board of Control Of Char
liable Institutions. He made
this statement during a recent
meeting of the board In Frank.
fort. The subject was brought
up by the discussion of the fate
of Theodore Nichols, negro
wife murder, sent to the peni-
Tertiary from Louisville. He
was kept in the penitentiary for
some time and then was declared
insane and sent to the asylum at
Lexington. He escaped from
that institution shortly after be-
ing put there and nothing has
been heard of HIM since.
DR.. Gardiner does not take the
position that the insane Grim
nails should be confined in a lu.
natic asylum, however. He be.
lieves that they are where they
belong when they are in the peu
itentiary and thinks that they
would be out of place in a asy
lum, but he declares that they
are defective mentally. DR..
Gardiner rather surprised the
me bers of the board by the
position he takes regarding con-
victs and the criminally insane,
and while they may agree with
him, they are not at all prepared
TO take care of all tie criminally
insane in their institutions.
In fact, that is a mooted ques
ton. The insane criminals are
not wanted anywhere. The
asylums say they have no place
to con6ne the criminal who is
insane and the penltentiary au
th0rlties say that the peuitentl-
arv is not the place for an insane
man. The question of what to
do with the criminal insane
probably will be put up to the
legislature at its next session
AMI that body will be asked to.
make some provision for the
man who commits a crime while
deprived of his reason.
There has been friction be-
tween the Board of Control and
the prison authorities for some
years over the insane convicts
and the asylum officials have IN
tlmated, very strongly, that
some of the men sent to the asy
lun from the penitentiaries are
not insane. They say some Of
the men were shamming while
others merely were cranky. Tie
prison authorities say that the
asylums refuse to believe that
the cOnvicts are crazy because |
they do not want to have the
care of them, where they have
no place in which thay can be
safely confined. When a man
escapes and gets clear away the
asylum authorities are convinced
that he wa, sane or he could not
nave capei.-Frankfort News.

coil" How many Of you Johns" envy me
my present position? L am a subscriber
OF The Journal and read all the letters
in this department and enjoy them very
much. / do not care to butt in on the
questions OF woman's suffrage, the train
ing of children or whether 1t is best to
be old maids and bachelors, as it would
be treading on dangerous ground.
Best wishes to Miss Thomas and the
Household readers.
LONESOME JOHN.
