ASyIn1nS
BY NIRs. WALTER FERGUSON

BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON
A man from our town died the
other day in a privately owned in
stitution for the mentally afflicted,
located in a large mid-western city.
He was suffering from severe
mental depression, due to financial
losses. Physically, too, he was not
up to par.
Relatives persuaded his wife to
take him to the institution for eX-
animation, and afterward she was
prevailed upon to leave him there.
4 week later she asked if she might
come to see him, but the doctor,
owner of the place, warned her not
TO do so.
Several days afterward she re-
ceived q wire saying her husband
had had a stroke. Being anxious,
she hurried there by automobile. but
having arrived sooner than she was
expected, was not permitted to see
her husband. When she was taken
to him, hours later, he was near
death and she was Mortified to find
his body covered with great bruises
Fate Haunts Her
Attendants explained that he had
become violent and had to be
strapped down. He died without
regaining consciousness. The ra3e
charged at this particular santa
rum runs around 5000 a month.
The poor woman is agonized II
the thought that her husband was
mistreated and that she was net
with him
1t may be possible that all her
fears are well founded. Some good
strong sunlight of publicity should
penetrate into such places. Be
cause, evade it as we may, horrify-
ing tales filter from them now and
then.
And the victims are so utterly
helpless Although we openly dis
cuss and treat all other diseases,
the person with the sick brain IL
showed off as if he were a Grim
inal and often cruelty handled.
Cruelty Easily Explained
I wonder how often these pr.
vately owned institutions are really
inspected, and how much we know
about what goes on within their
walls
1t is SO easy for helpers to eX-
cuse cruelty by saying that the pa
tiep4 had become unruly. Dire
thr64ts of close confinement and
the strap can be used effectively.
Even those who love the patient can
be inundated by that small word
insane"
I imagine that dark secrets Of
horror might be unearthed if the
truth Of such cases as the one
cited above we're shouted from the
housetops But that woman, too,
will keep still. She will not want
to publish the fact that her hus-
band died so. And dead men tell
no tales"

Hyderabad with its s2,700 square
miles is the greatest OF the indian
states in area. The ruler is the NiZam,
and the state is as often referred TO
as "the Nizam's Dominions' as it Is
by name.
Politically, Hyderabad is Of great
Importance. The Nizam is the high
est ranking Mohammedan prince Of
India, and his dominions are the heart
of Moslem feeling and activity for
the whole peninsula Yet, by one Of
the strange quirks common in Indian
affairs. the 100000 subjects Of this
ruler are predominantly Of the Hindu
faith.
Hyderabad Almost Independent.
The state Of Hyderabad has a status
not easily defined. The British en-
pire, through its aspect, the Indian
empire, takes care of all foreign re-
lations, and the Nizam undertakes TO
furnish certain troops for empire de-
fence: but otherwise the state is
almost as independent as Afghanistan
or Persia The public finances of the
state have often been in bad shape:
but the NiZam's private wealth is
tremendous. Doubtless that is to be
expected. for before Hyderabad re-
ceived its present name it was the
kingdom of Golconda-a name which
has become a synonym for fabulous
wealth. From a Golconda diamond
mine, it is said, came the Koh-i-nor,
perhaps the most famous of the worlds
huge diamonds.
Hyderabad city, capital of the state,
and chief residence Of the Nizam, has
population of half q million and is
the fourth city of India. Most Of
the habitations were once mud huts;
but many have been rebuilt with brick
during the last quarter century. The
NiZam's palaces, those of the mobiles.
and numerous government buildings,
all of stone, add to the present SUBJ
stantial appearance of the city. In
the exact center of the walled area
rise four lofty minarets, spaced In a
quadrangle, dominating the sky line.
From these towers four broad streets

The minarets are not connected
with a mosque, but at a little dis

temples of the Moslem world, the

followers of the Prophet may as
