Two Attendants KY
Were:Overpowered.

Several of the prisoners in the
criminal insane ward at the Insane
Hospital rebelled against their attends
sants, Tuesday, overpowered two OF
them and also did considerable dam
age to the furnishings of the build
ing.
One of the attendants was badly cut
about the head and it was necessary
to summon assistance from the main
hospital before the mutiny could be
quelled. The leader in the outbreak
against the attendants was Neal Dow
Brooks, who was committed TO the
State prison, in 1904. from Cumber-
land county for 20 years for criminal
assault. His killing of a fellow pris-
ener with an iron bar while at Thorn
aston was the reason for his trans
ference to the criminal insane ward
of the Augusta Insane hospital. He
has made his escape once since being
here but was recaptured.
