 These increases are at least par tiy attributable U tne ex enslon 3f the provisions male fof the care of insane persyfts and the growth of tie practise of placing l iem in institutions. There i3 all increasing disposition and wiling ness on the part of the public to accept institutional treatment.
 The old timie horror of the lun- tic asylum, fully justified, per maps, by the inh1man practices formerly prevailing in such insi-
 ltions, nas largely dissiapeaed, md 1t is coming to be regonized nat the modern institution for the insane is simply a hospital Tor the treatment of menta diseases. fulfilling essentially the same purpose in the community as any other hospital for the sick In the interval between 1901 and 1910 the number of institutions for the insane increased from 328, to 369, the average number 0f inmates increasing from 458 to 5l2
 Not witnstanding these devel- opments. the provisions for tine institutional care of the insane are still very inadequate in most parts the United States. There are general complaints of over crowded institutions and of the necessity cf turning patients away. Under suca conditions. the conditions, the Construtl0n of ( new hospital for the insane.or the insane or the extension of an in crease in the number of insane iE the number of insane in institlt- ions without being indicative of any increase in the prevarence in insanity in the community from which the patienns are received.
 At the same time there has been a great improvement in the agen- ties for discovering cases of in sanity and bringing them under institutional care. The advance in methods O. medical diagnoses leads to the detection of mental disease in cases brought to gen eral hospitals for the sick The institution for the insane is be- coming more generally accessible not only by the encrease in the the number of such institutions out also by the improvements in the means of transportation and communication. The automobile is mentioned as a factor of some inheritance in this connection. making it possible to bring to the hospital patients in poor physical condition These are some of the fluenc which, as state d ln the report, may have. contributed to the apparent increase of insanity pr to the increase in the number of recognized and recorded cases l without being indicative of any actual increase. The author of ais report believes that there has been, at the same time, an actual increase of insanity, but that 1t is not as great as the statistics to he number of insane in institut- ,onS would indicate.
 An increase of insanity is pro- bably in some degree a natural consequence of the rapid growth of cities in the United States be- tween 1880 and 1910 the Dropor- ton of the population of the Uni ted States living in urban com munities increased abont 190 per cent, while the rural population in creased only about 40 per cent As a.result 46 per cent of the total population of the United States was urban in 1910, as compared with 29 per cent in 1880.

WAS JOHNSON WORN
 DOWN BY AEORANe


 AnOrner heavyrweiEht champiOnsf1ip battle has been fought CD and will 20 down n ring recorda. but from all ssc- counts of the con test received by cable. Lne Jack J0nr1s'ol1 rank Moran bout 1n Paris June 27tE1, was about the worst Of any fitIe match which has taken place fn years Good judges Of fights were unanimous in sayifie that Johnson was about all in at the end Of the battle and that any real good heavy weight would have stopped hzr1l that Moran did not show the class he had boasted Of and he, did the re- verse of what he planned; that is he carried the hgft to Johnson when he must have Known that his best chance was to make the co1ored man lead Billy Brady, former manager of Jim Corbett and Jim JeHries. who was at the ringzide. declared that the fight was rauks that Moran, with any Elnd of a punch. should have knocked Johnson ont Others were of the opin- ion that Johnson 1oafed all the way and was afraid to take a chance, oth- erWise he should have stopped Mo- ran The fact that Johnson could mot stop the Pittsburgh man shows plainly that he has gone back woeft1l- ly, or else Moran has much more aJbil- 1ty than the followers give him credit for It must have been poor when the thousands of English and French Spectators continually booed at the
 
 sult Of the battle, while it still gives Johnson the title of champion. has put him back in the eyes of all sport ing men and. it is a question now whether he could get backing to go agzinst a real high class heavyweigflt. That Johnson has gone back there is no doubt now and as predicted some time aRo, the fight resolved. itself into m question of condition only Johnson was not there with his usual good condition and dared not take a chance even when he knew he had the better Of the going There is no doubt that Moran tried his best and from the ac- counts did most of the leading and aI- Ep damaged his coIored man sorne- what Moran needs a great deal of coaching before he will be in the top class and he made the mistake of oth- CTS Before him in doing the leading. That was playing right into Johnson's s hands. As defensive tighter Jack is a past master Moran could have sl--s--Iohnson to do the leading. for as cha4np1on he was there to raalxe a 1Eht or quit his title. It may mean another meeting between the two men, tut the fans will never give them the aznount of coin they pulled down Sat-

urday- Gunboat Smith would have been the logical man to meet Johnson, Tor he is the recognized holder of the white heavyweight title and should have been the rsselectted. Let Moran meet the winner of the Carpen- tier-STnith fight and then the winner of the latter fight could go against Johnson. By that time lack will prob aply be ready to step down and out. For a heavyweight champion, Johnson has had about the softest snaps of any title holder who ever held a crown.
 But why not match Johnson up with a man of his own sizewJess Willard for instance and then the co1ored man would not be so free in trying to throw all his weight on his opponent and thus wear him down. Willard, with his 230 pounds, would be able to reverse the order and beat Jack at his own game. Just give Jess six months to properly train under competent handlers and put his against Jack ov- CT the marathon route and we will have a white champion. Willard is all. so the kind of boxer who will make Johnson come to him, and that is one sure method of beating him.
 There has been consid erable talk since the fight about the whole affair having been framed up;'' Moran being used as d goat for Johnson's benef1t. Such stories are to be regretted, es- peciaIIy if they are untrue. but if they. are true, then Mir Johnson should be relieved of his claims to the cham pionship and barred from the ring for all time
