tbe cradle, and rooking it, sits an aged blind woman. As we enter a abort, fleshy old woman with wblte h*li, oo»I black oroM^ra*, ilktiht stoop in one shoulder and formed band, rises op eagerly and asks 1/ we have brought a dispatch for ber. Tbe Superintendent winks and tbe writer produce* a perfect ly blank piece of paper torn from his not a book. Anotb»r h'g old fe male sitting by, at this bursts irto peals of laughter, throwing bersel/ back lu her chair and itr*tcbiog ber month open till tbe two or thr a yellow snag* which break the monotony of its toothless depths look like milestones in a desert waste. She clasps ber bands aud lairly •oreauu the other M»IZ9S the paper and begins to read aloud from the blank paper: *'I tako the opportunity to semi word to you, Mary Ann Conseltnau^ that tbe salt wlh come to trial next week and that tbe judge will order the estate divided and your share of tbe money and all tbe deeds nout to you at oupe etc., etc." Aud then, amid tbe laugh* ing and the chafllog of the others, Mary Ann Oounselman itoee rapidly ou to tell tbe writer that sho bad the deeds once in ber possession and fourteen thousand dollaro oi tbe money besides, and thai they were all stolen in that very room {aud to rt quest that he pot it down and that he bunt up her brother, Richard Counsel man, who is "a light complected man," and t-jll bitn to send hera trunk aud a copy of the will, aud to come for her, witb a wagon, uext Monday aa she is ready to go back homo. An~t so she rattles ou, talking louder and louder all the time, and tbe big wo man with tbe three yellow snags ol teeth gets more and more boisterous, other women gather uutil thcro ae in tbe room half down who are as cr*« as loons the laughter is contagious aud grows louder and tnore furious, and the seen** is as uear Bedlam as anything thrtt could well be imagined. The Su perinteuduut stands quietly by aud wbtm it has seemed to reach a point be youd which it would most certainl be unsa:e to go, be, ny that wonderful ex ercise oi will power which he seem to possess in so eminent a degree, stills it. He lifts his hand, speaks a few words in a kind, firm tone, and tbe confusion aud clamur subside as if by magic. Tbe two women most prominent in the soeue have been inmates of the various oounty pwirhouses in tbls county for eighteen yoars. Tbo most

arc of course to be met with in the rooms of the hopelessly insane. We como to the door of ono of tbesoand tbe Superin ten. lent tells us that it is occupied by a Mlsa Phillips who was formerly an actress and belonged to tho Fanny B. Price troujx?. She was a year and a half in tbe Insane Asylum at Indianapolis, and four or five months ago was sent to this county as HU Incurable. After speaking a cheerful. rea«uring word to her through tbe little wickot in the door, the Superintendent unlocks tbe door aud we enter. She Is curled up like a cat on the bed. with her face to tbe wall. iSbe turns her head BO as to look at us bat noes not otherwise change her position while we remain in the room. Her eyes follow us as we move about, with a dreary, vacant look, a look void ol all expression, a look that is most pitiful. The Superintendent beuds over her and calls attention to something. She has been engaged in learn# h*r nightdress Into shreds, H* reproves her gently,but she continues look st bim vacantly and makes no reply. We bid her good bye and her eyes follow us ont the door, which Is again locked, but sho does not stir from the position in which we Urst found her., ...

THK STRAIGHT JACKKT.

^Across tho hall we stop at another door and look in at tho wickot in silence and pity. -Lying on the bed is a comely young woman whom many readers ol tho Mall knew when sho was a light hearted, happy young girl. Sho was engaged to he married. Shortly before tbe marriage was to take place, the gentlema to whopi she was engaged suddenly died. The shock and subsequent grief turned her mind. Sho bM beeu a hopeless manioc for years. The bed on whltii) sho la lying, as wj see her, Is a*» net tbe our alulesa window, thmugD whlcu streaming the golden afternoon mm, and from which (night bo seen as lovely and peaceful a landscape ss heart ortuld lesire- Tlutshe heeds nothing ot this kind. Sho is lying on her back ing into vacancy, her uvcr busy, re*t less

Angers plunking to shreds the pieces of

cloth torn from ber garments. The windew sill, the bed, tbe floor—everything 1 Is covered with thpw shreds and fibers.

She Is talking rapidly, earnestly, and as ws listen, wo start back in horror. It is tbe moat shocking oaths, tbe vilest

abnse, the most terrible threats that ever we heard proceed from the montb of a woman, and It taall directed against the unconscious woman from whose ,r room we have just oome. Tbe practised eye of the Superintendent area that there will preaently be trouble. He speaks to her, soothes her, and going in fastens on her a straight jacket, which she submits to without a murmur, and again lies down. tjt TUB atTpmurnctoicrrs noon.

Presently we find ourselves in Mr. Daily's comfortable quartern, tbe noutheast corner room, op stairs. Here we look over a neatly kepi reoord of the Institution from which a complete Idstory of every inmate from the tineof his entering tbe bouse till his departure may be gathered. We examine Ida "Expense Book," an admirable thine In its way. from wbtoh we oaa see at a glance what artiolee have been parohaaed, who from, tbeir ooet and all aboat them. On a Ale are copies of all Mils, receipts, de. We look at hie last quar?arly report to tbe Board of Commlssioc

pill li Jm

ers and And that the average cost of keeping tbe poor la WA oents per day, or fl,06j£ centa per week. •,

STATISTICAL.

We learn that the firm was purchased In 1806, of Dr. Clipplnger, for|10,000. It contains 180 sores. Ninety-seven aorea of it are rented out to tbe highest bidder onoe ach year. It is rented at present to Mr. Abbott, at ffl.25 per acre. The remaining S3 acres are cultivated by the paupers nuderthe direction of tbeHu perintendent. Tbe buildings were erected in 11367 and *8 at a oost of something over 940,000. Tbe average number of paupers is sbout 70. At present there are 76. Of these 25 are women, 4

babies,

Miid 0 boys. They are furnished with first class medical attendance, Dr. 8. C. Preston being the regular physician In charge. Besides tbe Superintendent there are threo persons employed about the place namely, Mrs. Keefe, the Matron, at $200 par annum Mrs. Barker, who has already been mentioned, at the same salary, and a man for general farm work at |200. The Superintendent Is allowed |1,000, which we really regard as very poor compensation considering tbe kind of sorvice he is to the county. Before coming here he had had hve years experience in the Insane Asylum at Indlanapxlis, and six years as Hospital Steward of the Marlon Oounty Poor Asylum. Mrs Keefo Is his sister. Her husband ha* been dead two years. She is a quiet abd estimable lady, and is very much loved by all who know her.

AN INCIDKNT.

While we are sitting in the Superintendent's room, bis quick e«« discovers some one approaching the houce. He is evidently interested snd goes to the window. Tt is a woman, a frail, delicate looking person, and she walks as if it really fatigued. As she comes under thi wiudow be calls to ber.

Ab, good even ng, Mr. Daily, I didn't know you were there," she says, aud then adds eagerly, her face lighting up, "I've got work, sir, got a place up on Ottor Creek, and oh Mr. Dally, I've got a place for my little girl, too—a good place—and they'ro going to keep her nil she's a young woman

And then sho breaks into tears, but checks tbem immediately and smiles again as she adds:

It's over at Sandford, and I know they'll be .jood to her." Again tbe shadows gather, and her voice trembles as she looks up and asks:

Have you give Sherman to anybody?" No, Mary, your boy is still here," answere Mr. Daily there was a man here Saturday who would have taken bius but I wasn't satisfied that it was best. Do you want to take him away with you

The reply comes sadly, No, I have no place for him. I had hard work to get a place for myself and tbey wouldn't listen to my keeping bim witb me, I'll have to leave him a little while longer, air, but Mr. Daily, I'll get him a place— I II get him a place, sure."

All right, Mary, go on around and get your supper you look tired." I am, sir I've walked from Sandford this afternoon, twelve miles,but I've got a place thero for my little girl!"

And then Mr. Dally tells us how tho woman was brought there Blck,with ber two children and how, after months bad passed, when she became strong enough, she had gone out to hunt for work and what a weary hunt it bad been, for nobody wants a woman with cblldreu and especially a woman from the poor-houso. It is all very sad and very touching and we tara away from tbe window and go down stairs.

KIOBTTAIX. *!.-».*•

The sun goes down and we stay to see tbe men as they gather from their work. One is going through the rooms gathering up the white spreads from the beds. We go into the sitting room where tho men are seated along the wall, on tbo benches, smoking their pipes and thinking! Thinking of what? Thero are the lame, the halt, tnr blind, tha afflicted In every shape, and also these wbo are only ludolent and trifling. They do not read. They do not talk much. They sit with their fret stretched out before thorn, their eyes on the floor and their thoughts—w hero A few walk aim loss ly about In tho moonlight or sit on the steps, but all are silent and tuoro«e. Ono by one they slink out of sight. At etght o'clock tbe lights are put out and all mast-bain their beds by nine. We inrtj away from the plaoe with a 'sease of relief and drive slowly* boino in the moonlight thinking of all we have seen and hurob thankful that wo arc uoi yet« county charge."

U*v C. R. UiocnKitso* attended tbe Baptist State Convention at Richmond, Indiana, this week. In the conrso of a letter to the editor of this paper ho says:

After that time the Miami had no admirers at the village. Ho became sullen ndu«ly his hatred toward Phil w, unbounded, and within his heart vowed that the young pale-face sbou die.
