PANIC IN SANATOR|UMS
Nurses at Pianos Distract At
tention of Patients in
Smoky Room.
ATTENDANTS CHECK RUSH
Twelve Hundred Insane Men
and Women Headed to Safety
at Amityville While En-
ployes Fight Flames.

Amityville, Long Island, May p
About twelve hundred insane patients
in the four private sanatoriums In this
place were thrown into a panic to-
night when n fire was discovered in the
laundry building of the Long Island
Home. Physicians and nurses devoted
their attention to looking after the
three hundred men and women inmates
Of the home, while employees fought the
flames. All were marched to the first
floor, when the main building, ninety
feet away. began to fill up with smoke.
The patients were marched into two
large sun parlors on the first floor,
while nurses played the piano to dis
tract their attention from the fire. The
patients We're alarmed at the smoke,
however, and ii was with considerable
difficulty that the physicians, nurses
and attendants were able TO keep them
from breaking away from the home.
Adjoining the Long Island Home is
Knickerbocker Hall. Here preparations
were made TO get the patients from the
building in case it became necessary.
but the fire was of such short duration
that they were not taken beyond the
first floor. They were greatly disturbed
by the smoke. however. and ii was ex-
tremely difficult for those In charge to
control them.
The next building 10 Knickerbocker
Hall is Loudon Hall, where there were
about $50 patients. Here there was the
same scene as in the other places. The
patients realized there was fire not far
away. and It took all the care and at
tention OF the attendants TO keep them
in check.
At the Brunswick Home there was
also disorder. IL was there severa!
months ago that a fire occurred, and
the PATIENTS, many OF them who were
in that fire. made n break for liberty
when to-night's blaze was discovered.
They were held In check by the at
tendants, however.
When the local firemen arrived they
found the Long Island Home employees
lighting the blaze with their own APP
paratus. The combined efforts Of the
fire fighters made short work OF the
blaze, but not before the laundry build
ing had been wrecked. The loss is
said To be about $1,000. The origin OF
the fire is said to have been defective
electric light wires.
The main building is three story
concrete and frame structure. DR.. o. j.
Wilsey. superintendent Of the home
said not a patient was injured, although
he admitted they were frightened.

said:
Eyes. Miss Borden spent the day with

SERUM CURBS MENINGITIS
Reduced Mortality Demonstrat-
ed by 1900 Tests.

Anti-menngitis serum. IN use for six
years. has demonstrated It's ability TO re-
duce greatly the death rate from that
disease as well as TO lessen the deforming
and other permanent consequences Of IT,.
according 10 Or. Simon Flexncr. The
opinion OF Or. Flexner is based on tests
made in 1850 cases in many parts of the
world during that time. His views on the
subject are set forth in the May number
Of The Journal of Experimental Medi-
cine"
The serum was first administered I'm
1906, and Or. FleXner points out that II
has come TO be applied under conditions
fairly representing all known manifesto
tons Of epidemic meningitis. lie adds:
Hence, the test OF the serum may be
regarded as having been "A rigorous one.
The initial difficulties surrounding the adj
mlnlstration by direct subdural injection
have been largely overcome and doubtless
Will be still further mastered. Already
the serum is being successfully applied
in private as well as In hospital practice.
This gain will probably be reflected In a
still further diminution of the mortality,
since early injection plays such a large
part I'm determining the results achieved"
The number of permanently injured
among the serum treated, DR. FleAner
says, has become very small or all
severe consequences of the disease deaf
ness has been least influenced. Injury to
the internal ear, il Is declared, takes place
very early. and sometimes before the
diagnosis Of meningitis has been made.
Even deafness, II is hoped. may in time
be diminished by a more uniformly carly
application of the serum.
The most favorable cases for treatment
are between five and ten years and the
least favorable above twenty.
