Mrs. Aurella Thomas, matron at the Home for Fi-iendlega and the woman's section of the county Jail, appeared before the county commissioners Monday and complained of the system whereby the matron is obliged to take care of the Insane. She compared the system at the Institution with that in vogue at the county jail, pointing out that Sheriff Steen had an assistant who was detailed to look after the insane. The commissioners, through their attorney J. F. Robbins, determined to mt the question before Judge Fox. In case he will not take the responsibility for appointment of a matron for the women insane, the board declared it would. Mrs. Thomas declared she bad been fighting so long with Insane women and only receiving 40 cents a day, that her patience was now exhausted. The board of commissioners agreed that if a guardian for the insane serves at the Jail, a similar office should be created for the Home for Friendless. The monthly salary which Mrs. Thomas will receive as guardian for the inSane, in addition to the per diem allowance of 40 cents for boarding the Inmates has not been determined. Mrs. Nancy Brown, an inmate at the Home, Is very dangerous and Mrs. Thomas said she would do violence unless watched all the time.
