When these matters were reported tp the court an investigation of the employees of the hospital was quickly btPun and one of the male nurses was C creed into telling of some of the treatment administered to Speer and to other patients who are confined in the institution
 The nurse told the court that fre- quently patients who were unruly were submerged in hot water for an hour Il: time and thus SO weakened that they could not resist the attendants. This treatment was called sending them to help and the water was so hot that sometimes the patients bodies were bllstered.
 Other patients were strapped % their beds and left without food until they were starved into a state of sub mission.
 Speaking specifically of the case of Speer the nurse said that he did not think the man was crazy at all. That he had been on duty in the ward where Speer was confined and that the man seemed rational enough. He objected to being placed in the aslyum at all and especially to being put into n ward where there were so many noisy man iacs.
 Speer complained to the doctor in charge of the ward about his treat ment by the nurse and this caused the nurse to take his spite out on the pa tient. Tho attendant testified that the nurse in charge of Speer's ward told him that he must not leave his bed under any circumstances and that when the patient was forced to dis. obey this order the nurses threw hin, back onto his cot and beat him with their fists. Speer fought back and be- ing strong man there was a scuffle in which the two nurses beat up the patient until he had to be lifted into his bed. The next morning Speer was found dead.
 A rigid investigation of the institu- tion will be made and it is expected that there will be some startling dis closures made in regard to the treat ment of both men and women patient J

Special Nugget ServicA

PADDLEFORD. Ark. Feb. 3.-An investigation has been made into the death of James Speer, a patient in the insane hospital here which has dis closed a shocking state of affairs with in the institution.
 Speer was admitted or committed to the institution about three weeks ago by court order which sent him t. the hospital for observation as 1t was not clearly proven at his trial that he was of unsound mind. Instead of putting the patient in the observation ward which was crowded he was given a cell in one of the wards ir which patients who were violently insane were kept.
 Several days ago the mans death was reported as having taken place from natural causes.
 When his effects were turned over to his family they found beneath the cover of his watch record of his treatment at the hospital and a pre- diction of his ultimate death at the hands of one of the guards who the patient claimed had taken a dislike to him.
 The finding of this bit of paper led to an investigation and to the disin- telment of the mans body. An ex- animation disclosed the fact that three of his ribs were broken and that he lad died from concussion of the brain and other injuries.

 VERA CRUZ, Feb. 3.--A remarka. hic story has just come to light here through the shipping to the soldiers ho me at Washington of Ezera Calkins, an American over eighty years old who has been living in Mexico ever sirce the war between the United States and this country.
 Calkins had completely lost his identity and was believed by all who i'",w hom to he q Mexican. He be- lievcd himself that he was citizen
 f NeXico and h had married anG rais rd d family here. all of whom, includ- ms his native wife. are dead
 The finding of the old man or his tlrding of himself reads like a fairy tale and none of the particulars were made public until after the mans story had been verified by reference to the War department and practically prov C.. by the records of the adjutant gen erals office
 Calkins has lived for years on a small bit of ground on the outskirts of Vera Cruz which belonged to his wife. He made his living by raising a few vegetables which he sold in the market place of the town. It was while he was on one of his weekly trips to the market wiah his produca tEat the man remembered something that had passed from his mind when when he was q boy of sixteen.
 The wthcred and bent old truck, gardener was standing on the street corner some weeks ago when the Am erican marines sent ashore to escort the Madero brothers from the United states consulate to the boat landing rlarched down the street leading to the dock. There was nothing very im- posing in the parade of the armed fierce of the United States. Just one company of marines about sixty strong. But ahead of them marched a diminntive trumpeter and in their midst was carried the flag of the Uni ted States.
 The old Mexican gardener seemed ia feel the throbs of memory pulsing in his brain when he saw those light blue 
 trousers and the dark blue coats with the red facings and the yellow chev. rons on the arms of the non -commis. stoned officers.
 He told the story himself to the consul and later to the officers and surgeon of the flagship.
 When he first saw the company of seq soldiers coming towards him he Felt that somewhere he had seen just this sight before. It must have been ir dream for how could he, a Mexi- can farmer, have seen the men of the Gringo. ships.
 Then. as the compact column drew closer he instinctiveiy felt that the officer at the head of the column was go ing to speak to him and ask him why he had not reported for duty. The old man could not explain this. He did not try to. lut when the color guard swung by he found himself standing erect and raising his hand in salute. There was glimmering back in his mind, a sense that he had been taught to salute that fae.

LOST FOR YEARS
 FINDS HIMSELF AGAIN

Then he heard the captain of the marines sing out an order that fell strangely familiar on his ears. and a man in the ranks stumbled and said, "Oh. hell"
 Then the ancient Mexican gardener knew what he had forgotten at battle of Chepultapec-years ago. That these were his people. that he had once worn a blue coat with yellow braid on the sleeve that he had rarched at the head of just such a column of men under just such flag. In fact t came to him that he was not Pedro, the old vegetable seller, but that he was bugler Ezera Calkins. F troop, First United States dragons, and that he had been hit in the head with the butt of Mexican soldiers rife during the charge on the heights.
 Then Calkins saught the American consul and told his story. He was car ed for and an investigation mad2 and his record was found in the war department as he gave it. aThe rec ord simply had missing after the &C., tion at Chepultapec'
 The blow on the head had made the young bugleTs mind a blank and until he heard the old orders, saw the old uniform and the old flag he had lived as he had found himself after the battle. a Mexican.
