Defects in the Law How the State Is KoMiCil in the Inquest for Insanity.

The? Hoard of Stat; Chariti is in favor Of certain rhanses in the laws regulating tho commitment and dischar of Insane persons'. Under tho laws la foree at tho pr-fnt tlmo abuses of a Ferious nature have b-en foun-J to be possible and of frequent occurrence. In its forthcoming annual nport the b ar l will say upon this subject: "The defect in the laws rcgrmlinir the commitment of insane ergons to hospitals ari'l their discharge from thnn are yet uu-rorrect.-I. Serious and scandiloiis abuses have arisen in the commitment of the insane, and the law should be so amended as to make .uch o'-cunvm-es imissiMe. One dfei t is found in the heavy expense which, inquests of insanity put uton the State. This expense l usually greater than it need be. and often through carelessness or mercenary motives partakes of the nature of peculation. One way in which the Htate- is put to expense frequently when unnecessary Is in the holding of insanity inquests upon ffrsons who have -previously b en adjudged nsan. Such occurrences as this are usually the result of the removal of an insane pr?on from one county to another, and ould be easily avoided by withholding the Inquest until information could be secured from the county froai hih the subject came, or from the insane hospital in the proper dlstri.-t. "An Instance may be cited of this abuse, which is a type of "many that have come to th attention of officers. George Washington, a colored citizen of Knox county, was adjudged insane and admitted to the Central Hospital, loiter he was discharged as Incurable. Not a great while afterward the same man was adjudged insane in Vigo county, was admitted to the Central HosEital, and again discharged as incurable. - till later the vame person was adjudged Insane In Shelby county, and application was made for his admission to the Central Hospital. The application was refused on thl occasion, and so far as known this patient has not since been adjudged insane. In each case an inquest was held, exactly s though the subject had never been found Insane, and the expend of each inquest In all probability amounted to as much as J'.U "In some fopulous counties, where many !nsanlty Inquests are held. It Is common for certain favored individuals to be called upon as witnesses of the subject's insanity In very many cases where they have little r no actual knowlelg of the patient's condition, and are called to testify pimply for the purpose of enabling them to collect fees for so doing. Such favored witnesses are usually policemen or other otllcers of the law who have special opportunities for at least seeing many of the persons whose canity 1 to be inquired into prior to the lnfiniry. The- result of this practice is a heavy increase in the cost of Inquests. "The law enacted by the legislature of 1SS. requiring that In the conveyance of female Insane i arsons to hospitals for the Insane the sheriff or other person deputed shall provide a projH-r female attendant, should be amended in two particulars. First, the law should be extended so as to require a female attendant to accomXany the officer who removes a female Insane patient from a hospital upon her discharge, and second, a i?nalty should be attached for noncompliance with the law. The need of thrse two amendments has been demonstrated by the experience of the five years which have elapsed since the law was iassed. As it stands to-day. It has been violated by sheriffs or other officers, and it is not an uncommon procedure for an officer to convey an insan3 patient who has been discharged from the hospital to the county in which she resides without any female attendant." CHANGES IX PLANT LIFE. Dr. Coulter's Botanical Lecture Transformation from Death to Life. In his botanical lecture, yesterday morning. Dr. Coulter dealt with the inner life of the plant, especially the mata.boli.srn, or chemical change, lie said tne changes were of two kinds, constructive and destructive, a building up and tearing- down. The constructive work Is the making- of cellulose, a carbo-hydrate (C H. O.). and of the proteids (C. II. O. X.) After givlner the discoveries of several botanists in the last century be told how Sachs, a German botanist, was led to investigate the work of chlorophyll. lie found starch was present in the chlorophyll only when th latter was exiosed to light; that tho formation of starch, deiending upon the same conditions 'as the decomposition of C. O., must bi clostly connected with this decomios;Ition; and that the increase of weight in the plant was due to the formation of organic material. Starch Is the first visible product, but other products are formed before it. Some botanists think simple substances ar formal; these bpcom" more eorr.plex until protoplasm is the result. Then the protoplasm, breaking tip. gives rise to degraded products, starch beintf one. Hut others say the starch is one of the simpler compounds made before the protoplasm. Plants which contain chlorophyll ran make carbo-hydrate, those which do not must get them from the outl!uV. ' The formation of proteids means the transformation of death into life, and verv little I? known about it. l'roteids are made In every living plant cell. They are made bet-t in the leaves. All we know is that the tarbo-hydrates and nitrogen furnish the material for proteid eom.Hunds. The function of chlorophyll is apparently to change Inorganic mterial Into organic. Chlorophyll bodies are nothing but protoplasmic Utiles colore! with a Kie n stain, lr an alcoholic Folutlon of chlorophyll is made and the light is allowed to pass through, when lucked at through the spectrum dark bands are seen at regular intervals. Lounnel's n;d I'ringshim's theories concerning this fact vt re given, and the lecture was closed with some int resting facts alut the contructive capacities of plants and animals. The next lecture will be given Friday ev niug. Feb. Pi; subject, "lhe Distribution of Organic: Substances." ' THE ELKS' ANNUAL SHOW. A .Minstrel Performance with tlie Hcst Talent to He Had.
